    Best overall weapon in Turf Wars?

    I definitely agree that the E-liter has very high potential for wrecking a team haha I myself am a very mobile and fast-paced sniper so I prefer squiffer on narrower maps and the kelp scope on open maps.

    Best K/D Ratio and Highest Score

    Highest was 1606 with a ink brush and 20/2 with a splat charger

    Breaking into A ranks

    I've been hovering in the upper B+ as a charger main and can agree that the communication with the D pad is pretty helpful in alerting your team that something needs to happen. There are plenty of times in dual-splat zone maps where my team would meaninglessly hover in our zone while I try and...

    How should I deal with teams that just don't get it...?

    I know the feel. I've been stuck in the B range since I main chargers and can't carry a team alone. I find that spamming the C'mon actually has some effect in terms of telling your team that they should be watching your movements/doing something differently/pushing into enemy territory. I also...

    Best overall weapon in Turf Wars?

    Obviously not the most top tier choice for turf wars, but I find in open maps like Kelp Dome and Camp Triggerfish that chargers perform above average. I find myself usually 950+ raw score. Of course, since chargers are slow and support weapons, having a team that can keep the enemy busy is...

    Oh, hi!

    Helllooo! I've been a long time fan of Nintendo and followed Splatoon since its announcement. Until recently I just stalked these boards but I figured that having an account would be nice for posting, of course! I'm pretty chill about the game, though I do take the numbers and ranked pretty...

    Any (Other) Weapon Specialists Out There?

    Yeah, the truly unfortunate part about being good at and always using a charger is that usually you can't do much to carry a team if they can't cover the frontlines for you as you snipe in ranked matches.

    When you DC from a game, it counts as a loss.

    I find it so annoying when I'm playing a ranked mode for 2 minutes and we're winning and then I d/c because my internet also likes to drop. I understand that it's difficult to tell if people are just quitting or if they're having connection issues, but losing necessarily is still irking.

    Anyone Else "Challenging" Themselves with Ranked?

    I just want to stay in B and not drop, but I'm going to wait a few weeks until mid-summer when the ranks have settled to play a lot of splat zones since I want to find my actual skill bracket in splat zones since most top-tier players are still climbing their way up through B and I would rather...

    Any (Other) Weapon Specialists Out There?

    I love using the new NES weapon for turf war since it can spread ink pretty fast and the echolocator is great since I enjoy jumping from out of nowhere and inking people haha For ranked battles, I prefer the .52 deco in open areas like walleye warehouse otherwise I go for the kelp charger.

    Tier the Subs

    I like the seeker depending on the maps. Usually in maps with a lot of hills or sharp turns, the seeker can be lacking. Although in places with lots of straightways like Port Mackerel or big areas like Walleye Warehouse, I find that the seeker does wonders during teamfights when your opponent is...

    How do I stop sucking?

    There are probably tips for splatzones on the forums or it'd be better to make a new thread for this, but I have a few tips that I've found to be pretty helpful. 1. Rush the center. This is way more important to do in zones than in turf war, since whoever controls the zone first has an...

    Ability Tier List

    I had actually no idea that ink resist was that good. I'll have to try it out. imo, abilities are for the most part super situational and depend on your playstyle. Of course there are those that are mostly useless like bomb range. As far as the abilities that I'll always want to have...
