The team life counters can show you how many people are in the game you are playing. As for roller splash attack, it's only an OHKO at short range and when hitting dead on at the same time, with the exception of dynamo which you should be treating more as an enemy charger than anything. Keep...

Because, as I have already stated multiple times, the particular form of missing players is distinct, and handled differently by the game in multiple ways: The dropped player is missing from the very, VERY beginning - he is not present after map load, period. The HUD shows an outline of a squid...

I direct you to my earlier post where I established that yes, the problem affected one side disproportionately. A bit of an addendum - the missing players issue I'm talking about has -only- ever happened during splatfest. I am not talking about mid-match disconnects.

No, you don't get booted back to the lobby if other people on your team were missing from the start of the match (IE, before the game timer starts only 3 or fewer squid kids are standing on spawn, and the team life HUD shows a squid outline in place of a squid icon for the missing players). The...

Source? Nintendo's twitter, and the Splatoon tumblr say nothing about this.

If I was going to pick anything other than my favorite choice, it would have to be an organized thing, like getting a bunch of people to pre-commit to picking the choice on the right before we even know what it'll be.

As a cat, I played roughly 160 games during splatfest, and ended with a vibe of 64. I point this out not to brag, but to give a sense of scale and to explain why I think my observations might be indicative of overall trends. About 17 of the games I played began with missing players on my side...

I hit vibe 64+ during splatfest today. Along the way, I broke my K/D record for turf wars, hitting 19/1 in Urchin Underpass. Commemorated the occasion with a slightly butchered Starcraft reference. Also in underpass I ran 2 vs 4, and held mid until the final 40 seconds, which we lost because I...

The undisputed gold standard in shooter control schemes is WASD+Mouse, which uses motion control for aiming. Splatoon's implementation of motion control could be better, but it is good enough to be an objectively superior choice to pure stick once learned, baring physical disability. Splatoon...

Yeah, "C'Mon" is meant as a rallying point, not a frustration emote.

Best K/Ds I've had was 16/0 in turf wars on skatepark, and 32/6 in ranked on either skatepark or port, don't remember. I seldom go above 1300p, usually play krak-on roller with a heavy focus on murder. A+, often play off-gear in order to level stuff up, but I keep winning when I do, so it works...

To all the people complaining about being stuck with C-rankers and not being able to raise because of it... Please notice how the matchmaking keeps you with the same group of people for multiple matches, and that if you're stuck with bad players, those players will be distributed among the...

Ninja Kid trait: makes you invisible while running, but slows down run speed.
