    Looking for Competitive Squad, S or S+

    I've been trying to get into the competitive scene for a while now with no luck. So now I'm trying to join an active pre-existing squad, preferably with at least S or S+ players. I was S+ in Splatoon 1, currently S+ in all modes in Splatoon 2 (SZ: S+17, TC: S+9, RM: S+6). I can use most weapons...

    The Splatoon 2 Inkbrush...

    Ah, yeah duelies vs octobrush, the brush will probably win most of the time. It's kinda like with carbon and sploosh. You either gotta catch em by surprise or just hope your aim is good and get a trade. I'd suggest if you run across one, try rolling back and try to reposition. I haven't played...

    The Splatoon 2 Inkbrush...

    Pretty much same here. I finally made it to S+ in everything, so I don't get a break anymore from the rush of buckets lol I know they've nerfed the tri-slosher (kinda), but do you think they'll nerf it a bit more? I'm thinkin either shorter range, slower fire rate (which probably isn't likely to...

    Splatoon 2 Proof That Analog Controls Are Competitively Viable

    Of course, I suppose it really doesn't matter to me what you use, but you are aware you're intended to use the right stick with motion, right? The stick is usually used for looking around or doing quick 180s, and the motion is for when you're actually in a fight. Although some people use stick...

    The Splatoon 2 Inkbrush...

    Yeah usually that's the case. I used to pride myself in how I well I was able to use the brush, but seeing how much I'm struggling now, I wonder if I was ever really that good... But I've at least seen enough to know what makes a brush user good or bad, and unfortunately most of them aren't the...

    The Splatoon 2 Inkbrush...

    Yeah it seems like the octobrush has a wider spread at least, and it feels a bit faster, but I never played it that much so I'm not sure of all the changes. But I know that everyone seems to like it, I played a match with 6 octobrushes in it...

    S+ looking for highly competitive team

    So far I've had some offers to form a competitive team, but they haven't been replying so... Still looking for a team, I'm currently ranked S/S+, S+ from Splat1, 18+, EST. I played Permanent Inkbrush and chargers from Splat1, not sure of what I'll be using in Splat2. Most likely though, I'll...

    The Splatoon 2 Inkbrush...

    Well I'm glad it's not just me feeling this way. I've basically played nothing but the Permanent Inkbrush in Splat1, and I've been using the Inkbrush in Splat2. I was doing okay with it for a little while, but now that I'm back in S/S+ matches, I can't keep up. I used to put 2 mains of dmg up...

    Splatoon 2 Proof That Analog Controls Are Competitively Viable

    Sorry, I know I seem a bit obsessive with motion. Usually I would like to give positive and negative feedback, but I simply don't see much positivity in sticks anymore, now that Nintendo has improved motion so much for the second game. I honestly feel that the sticks in this game are worse. I've...

    Help with charger and motion

    Well I'm not sure how used to motion controls you are, but maybe these videos will help. He has several videos about motion controls (and even some of the splatoon 1 videos might be a bit helpful), and hopefully he'll be making a charger specific motion control video soon. But in the end, you...

    Splatoon 2 Proof That Analog Controls Are Competitively Viable

    Look, like OP said, pros will tell you to use motion. They say that for a reason. Why do you think they're pros? Because they use motion. Seriously, they know it's better. That's why they recommend it. I'm hoping this video doesn't convince you. (No offense to her of course. Her sniping was...

    Stingray is bad.

    Personally, I've been playing it in S rank, and I find it harder to use on rainmaker than zones, just because in rainmaker, everyone is constantly moving over the whole map instead of being concentrated in one spot. In any case, I end up using it about 4-5 times in a match, and I get 1 or 2...

    Competitive Splatoon 2 Team?

    Thanks for the offer. For now, I think I'll see how OOONIZZYOOO's team works out. If it doesn't work out as well as I hoped, I may take you up on your offer. (I usually use the inkbrush or chargers, btw ^w^)
