    Just a new guy who is bad at ranked looking for a group who can help me get better...

    Glad you confirmed it! My wife came up with the idea but I may have to try it out too lol

    Also, throwing 2 ink mines on the tower will do 70 damage which will put opponent within ko range of an indirect shot. Forgot to put that calc. For gear and abilities I run ink saver main, run speed up, swim speed up and some ink resist since you're on the front lines pretty often

    My wife had a great suggestion after talking with her! She's a solid B rank in all 3 modes! Have you tried the rapid blaster? It doesn't require good aim (3 indirect hits=KO) and even ink mine damage can make a direct hit a OHKO. It is good for tower control with the blaster. Good for splat...

    Have you tried switching controls from motion to stick to help with aim? If your aim is that bad, then I would try either a rapid fire weapon (Aerospray or Sploosh-a-matic). It's Rapid fire will guarantee a kill in most circumstances if your are 1v1. I would also try playing more stealthily...

    Not that I'm trying to play Devils advocate, but you look down on people who get to S rank (knowing how much effort it takes) when yourself is having trouble? But, welcome to SB! Personally, I like the vanilla splattershot, but I think the new Pro coming our Friday can have some impact on...

    Splatoon 2 Re-rolling Abilities Question

    This is what I was hoping for. I have Rockenberg boots with 3 randoms. I was going to do the ability chunk but was thinking of re-rolling first in the hopes of getting the run spend up as my desired chunks. The re-rolling is a sea snail still or did it get bumped up to 20k like the chunk?

    Splatoon 2 Re-rolling Abilities Question

    So, I am starting to work on getting ability chunks and whatnot, and haf a question. If we re-roll our abilities on say Rockenberg abilities, will it be random abilities or will the brand multiplier still take affect? So, let's a pc of Rockenberg boots gives me 1 run speed and 2 randoms...

    Classic Squiffer Release!

    Dualies has changed a lot and we are going to have 5 different types (vanilla, squelchers, dapple, glooga and tetra). We also have more umbrellas that are possible (dynamo, carbon, grizzco). We haven't even seen bubble blower special yet too. More new stages and revamped stages too.

    Classic Squiffer Release!

    So, it was just announced that the Classic Squiffer is being released tonight and I didn't see a thread yet to discuss! It comes with Point Sensor and Ink Armor. How do you think it'll do? With the new charge mechanics, I think it'll become pretty good in current meta to out distance a lot of...

    What is your mains weakness and how do you cope with it?

    Ive been using the Nozzle Hose lately. The faster rated of the Aerospray (which is everywhere) can easily overcome the 3 shot hose. I try to keep my distance and use curling bomb and bomber to add long distance pressure to make them back away from me to give me better distance.

    ABILITY CHUNKS FOR 90% OFF

    Do you think it's better to get 1 ability then turn it into a chunk versus filling up all 3 and then turning it into chunks? With each slot needing to be leveled up more, the base number is 4000 then jumps to 8000. It'll ale ypu longer you get to 2 and then 3 slots versus getting 1 slot...

    Anyone else really miss Splatoon 1's specials?

    Personally, I am enjoying the Splat2n specials, especially the baller and ink armor. It's not invincibility, but a slight boost. Curling bomb special is annoying though...

    Splatoon 2 Review Thread!

    You can play tabletop and handheld (confirmed by demo). I'm pretty sure that they can do split screen multi player. Even Splat1 could do it for battle dojo and one of the biggest pushing points is ability to play 2 people on the go (although the joy cons would be a pain). Last part is all...

    Hacking Gear Abilities

    I used hacked geAR but honestly it doesn't make you an automatic winner, it still takes skills to win. Regarding Splat2, I believe that you can choose your abilities so there won't be any need to hack gear anymore
