    Meddling Squids Looking for (European) Partners in Mischief [18+]

    IGN: Skepticpunk (also my Discord name) Age: 24 Rank: S Timezone: EST Weapons: Custom Blaster. Also good with the Tentatek and Custom Jet Squelcher. I'm available on weekdays from around 1pm to 11pm EST, and weekends pretty much all day. Provided my niece isn't playing on the Wii U, that is.

    Frame Data Spreadsheet

    I have a couple questions about the data. First off, is the frame data for weapons that have Burst Bombs such as the Custom Jet Squelcher from throwing a Burst Bomb and then firing? Second, how was testing done on frames-to-splat? Were you firing from point-blank range, or was it from maximum...

    What sensitivity do you use in Splatoon?

    I switched to +5 recently, but I used 0 sensitivity for a long time. Honestly, my advice to OP is just to try out different sensitivities and find out what you're comfortable with. It's more important to get comfortable with the controls when learning the game than it is to find the "objectively...

    My perspective on losing my rank

    Honestly, I have roughly the same opinion on ranks as OP. Your rank shouldn't be as important as simply learning to play the game, learning the maps, and learning how to play against other weapons with your own. If you're able to learn those things, and play consistently well, your rank will go...

    Funny Lag Moments

    On Walleye, I watched a roller roll right past me, ignoring me, and wondered, WTF? Two or three seconds later, he flicked at the air far away from me and I died.

    What is your favorite weapon in Splatoon?

    I mained the Heavy Splatling for a long time, but recently I've come to love the Custom Jet Squelcher. The Burst Bombs are super-deadly with it, and if you have one Damage Up main and sub, you can kill with one direct hit from the Burst Bombs and one shot from the gun itself. Couple this with...

    Snubbed Weapons Thread

    I have to agree with the opinions given about the Nozzlenose. The H-3, in particular, due to how much it punishes you for missing a shot and how the burst-fire mechanic messes with your aim. The L-3 at least has a kit with Burst Bombs to help it kill in one burst, but the H-3 has to hit with all...

    What really stupid/noob things have you seen, or have done?

    My first game of Rainmaker, the enemy team was taking the Rainmaker into our base and I said "Eh, I'll just get the next one," assuming that the Rainmaker would just respawn in the center and it would be first to 3 or something. Nope.

    "Shiny" and "Pure" Gear Compendium

    Wouldn't mind grabbing that myself, actually.

    The Bragging Thread

    I got to S today after figuring out the Splatling Deco. The rotation had Splat Zones, and I basically just camped our zone/side of the zone and defended it until I got a Kraken, at which point I tried to clear out the area and push with the Kraken. I lost maybe two games. Seriously, that weapon...

    Hydra Splattling: Analysis and Thoughts

    I'm afraid I'm going to have to agree with LMG here. Testing the Hydra in the range gives me maybe an extra line of range over the Heavy Splatling, and the mobility and charge time are pretty terrible. All I could think when I tried it was that I could be doing the same exact things more easily...

    Don't use top tiers you dislike in Sm4sh just to win BUT doesn't care about with Splatoon weapons

    I personally think that tier lists are kind of the wrong way to look at things if you aren't already playing at a competitive level and simply want to get good at the game. The issue is that different weapons are designed to do different things and have different roles. For example, the E-Liter...

    NO weapons in the Plaza (why?)

    Squids have a constitutional right to own as many deadly weapons as they want Judd damn it :mad:

    Weapon Nicknames

    I tend to name weapons after weapons in other shooters they feel similar to. For example: Bamboozler: FAL L-3 Nozzlenose: Chicom H-3 Nozzlenose: M-16 N-Zap: P-90 Blasters: Shock Combo Or stuff from other genres... Killer Wail: Shinku Hadoken/OPTIC BLAST Or just generic names. Inkstrike: Nuke
