Hi Inklings and/or squid !
Behind this title a little bit enigmatic, I'd like to start a debate with you. I didn't see this kind of topic before so, I'd like to apologize if it's already exists ! First of all, I'll probably make typos and other mistakes, I'm not english native speaker, I'm doing my best to be correct.
The introduction is done *checks* Now, the subject. I'm playing splatoon in both classical and ranked matches. I'm playing solo in classical and in duo with my brother in ranked. I'd like to talk about the ranking system. As a reminder, it goes from C- to S+. I like learning things, playing to improve myself. I would like to know if we can establish a kind of roadmap on what aspect of the game to focus while climbing the ladder. It could help me and others to see what they're doing "bad" and why they aren't improving anymore. I know that you'll say me that at a moment, each and everyone will stop improving because they've reached their limit. Where is the limit of anyone?
Here's my example of climbing the ladder of splatoon (It's probably, partially wrong because I played in duo team all the way) :
C- : Learning how to move properly through the map and what the different games modes are. Improving here can be made by paying attention to what the game mode wants you to do (taking the rainmaker, climbing on the tower, defending the splat zones...)
C : Learning how to aim ! Be able to reach an objective is good, but dying on it isn't worth. You'll have to aim better to shoot your foes before they shoot you
C+ : I spent the most of my time there... I don't know exactly what I am supposed to do but I think I have to be more aware of what is happening around me and look at my gamepad more often !
B- : My actual rank (at the time I'm writing this topic). I feel that I have to pay attention on when I can squid jump on a teammate that isn't my brother and start using my gamepad "horizontally" to aim better (at the moment, I'm mainly using the right stick to look left and right and the motion control for up and down).
Here's my thought about the ladder at the moment. I'm stuck in B-. Sometimes I win enough to stay here, sometimes I have a lose streak from 5 to 7 and I'm losing my place in this league and I go back to C+.
Do you feel that the ladder is like a learning course or not? What did you learned the most when doing your ranked match? What are you paying attention that you don't care in classical match?
