    Splatoon 2 Competitive 101 for an Otherwise Newcomer

    I will admit I actually avoid turfing lately. I find more fun to be had in the ranked modes, as people are focusing on maximizing their weapon's specialties in ways that Turf Wars will not. Keep in mind that each type of weapon will have a specific area or expertise, so to speak. Some weapons...

    Splatoon 2 Advice for elevating your game?

    I'd echo what Skoodge says in regards to practicing. The primary things are knowing the maps' special spots, any tricks to hop/jump corners, as well as areas where there's common camp spots. Depending on the weapon you use, you'll want to try to control camping locations to deny the enemy...

    The Tri-Slosher is STILL op, people.

    There's also the fun fact due to the way that the game itself runs at 60FPS and the tick rate is much lower, you can legit find yourself being killed by a weapon that you don't actually see a bullet come out of until after you're dead, due to differences in connections. It's another reason why...

    Splatoon 2 Stuck in A/A-, please help!

    I would recommend to use the Luna for tower control particularly. There it can be an unruly beast, absolutely racking up the kills while doing a service by keeping enemies off the tower. Typically, you'd want to escort the tower itself rather than standing on it, due to the shorter range of...

    Splatoon 2 Critique My Gear

    @ThatOneGuy There was one thing I realize that may not be understood by the brella too. The ink saver mains also reduce the cost of umbrella deployment/launch. Popping your brella open to defend against bombs or specials can cost a significant amount of ink, so main savers let you pop the...

    Splatoon 2 Critique My Gear

    @ThatOneGuy I'll take that into consideration. I was using some gear pieces that looked good between a few weapons, but I certainly want to hone the mini splatling when I use it. I tend to favor Brella/Splatlings, the mini is more for enjoying some aggression. The only reason the sub-up is...

    Splatoon 2 Critique My Gear

    There's also the fact that bomb defense ups do not actually reduce how much damage the shield takes, only you. If you're shielding, you'll want to avoid BDUs and replace with something more useful, like run or recovery. Even with the brella nerf in 1.4 to special cost, you'll get an average of...

    Splatoon 2 Critique My Gear

    I just joined as I enjoy seeing the discussions for Splatoon, figured I'd start in this thread. I admit the hardest part is trying to look good and get what fits your weapon or build, but I like to think I did alright. I've always loved the Splatlings and fell in love hard with the Brella. I...
