So going off of SevenLeaf's post about Sploon New Year resolution, I wanted to go the opposite way: what are some of your proudest accomplishments of the year? Was it hitting a certain rank? Was it joining a competitive team? Was it learning a weapon?
I can start, in no particular order:
1. 5 starring Sploosh
Despite playing this game for a long time, I never had a Golden/5 star weapon badge until this year! Part of my problem is that I have commitment issues until the Sploosh. The god of all shooters and weapons!
2. 999-ing all 7 Salmon Run maps
Hitting 999 is no small feat. If you done it, you know. HLM is quite a ride if you hit 333 Hazard Level.
3. Golden Grizzco banner
Good grief. This took me way longer than I'd like to admit. I got more frustrated than I'd like to admit. But thank God King Throwing exists. Thank God Triumvirate rounds are now a thing. Thank God for the global quota from Grand Fest Big Run. Thank God for the reworked reward system. This whole process was a gamble: you're fighting for a king to MAYBE get one Gold. Trust me: as much as I'm proud to be someone with a Golden Grizz banner, I DO NOT recommend doing this. Seriously. Unless you are either a super dedicated or exclusively a Salmon Runner, do not do this.
4. Playing different weapons of different classes
Never have I ever seen myself playing Bows and an Explosher of all things. Never have I ever thought I'd 3 star L3-D and Hydra. Never have I ever thought I'd be acquainted with the very very GOATed H3. Never have I thought I'd pick up Dread Wringer because of Fresh Season's initially disappointing weapons (see Dread D).
5. Joining a team
I like playing the game but you can only do so much playing alone. I never thought I'd actually talk to people who play the Sploon. That's why joining a team and making friends along the way is something that wasn't on my 2024 Bingo card. Playing in tourneys and scrimming is quite fun!
That's enough from me: what about you?
