Seeing a teammate disappear in a puff of smoke. We might've won with you, but now we're almost certainly going to lose!

The term "running an abilty" means using that abilty. If i say i run swim speed. It's means i use the swim speed ablity.
@Anaru LOL I had to reread my sentence quite a few times to figure out the way you were interpreting it. I figured it out finally. That's funny! @Leronne is correct. ;)
Oh my gosh, I'm sorry for being unable to read that XD. Swim speed is fine no matter what weapon you are using, so it's basically the best stackable perk!

and quick respawn dont forget
Quick respawn is fine for newer people, but I don't really die as much now, so I don't need it. For example, on my last play session, I was averaging about 9-5 for all my matches, and one much I got 14-2, so it wouldn't have helped me that much. Sometimes, I use quick super jump, since it I usually flee to behind a wall and super jump away if I'm cornered and low on health, so it let's me retreat faster and use up less time than respawning, and it let's me jump back into battle quicker after death.

Omg I am dying. this is amazing.

I'm sick of team mates who beckon you to "COME ON!!!!" so I super jump to them and they are in the middle of combat or just died. If you use that button, it signals to me that it's safe to advance, you've accomplished something that will push the objective, and there are no enemies immediately within range. Like if you've cleared a path for the rainmaker or something.
Most people don't abuse this, but one team mate in particular today was saying come on a lot, and it was always for the wrong reasons. It cost our team multiple deaths until we just decided to ignore him. groan.

Ugh, I HATE that. I pretty much instantly super jump to someone if they spam come on, so if they are about to die, then I die with them. Sometimes I say come on when I have the rainmaker and literally no-one is protecting me, but they really should have already jumped to me since I had the objective.

I pretty much ignore anyone saying come on no matter what. I haven't found many instances where it's actually a GOOD idea to follow them. The problem with come on is you don't actually know WHO they're even telling to come on, and you don't know if it's an NA player saying "come on" or a player anywhere else saying "follow me" And even if you assume it's "follow me" WHICH of the 3 squids are they asking to follow them? Is it me, the eliter up on the perch, for whom they've found a need to have me move to the front and take a closer perch to defend their advance deeper into enemy territory? Or is it the inkbrush on the opposite side of Depot that they want to flank from the opposite side? If I assume they want a sniper escort, I'm probably just going to get splatted. :)

Same with frantic screen taps. Are they alerting me of a flank? Are they telling me to get to a safe place for them to SJ? If I do they end up not SJ'ing and I lose my position. Most of the time if I change my focus to whoever is saying comeon/follow I get killed. If it's the objective holder, I SHOULD be aware of where they are anyway if I"m paying attention.

I will however USE c'mon/follow myself if I'm holding the RM and no one is near, or if our base is being invaded and they're all off playing team deathmatch and didn't notice. They also ignore it. :)

There have been a few times where it's worked well where someone used it next to spawn and I was the only one there so it was clear they planned a 2 player gambit in RM, and it did well. But there are so few times you can really tell the intend of of unless it's a situation like that.

Im sick of losing. It took a really long time to get out of B+ and the same thing is happening to me with A. Im also sick of the excessive use of E-Liters on tower control

Just so you guys know, salted squid is a delicacy in some places.

I'm sick of people in S rank that don't know how to play in S rank.
I'm sick of people with perfect gear when I'm poor as **** and can't get **** re-rolling with Spyke because Spyke is a piece of ****.
I'm sick of not knowing if I'm good enough to be an S+ or if I'm just average good. I get win streaks and losing streaks, I never alternate wins and loses. I might get one loss with many wins, but never two wins, a loss, a win, two losses. No, it's always five wins, quit for the day, five losses the next day.
I'm sick of ranking down to A+, ****ing murdering everyone, and then playing like **** in S rank.
I'm sick of not being able to play Splatoon when I want to.
I'm sick of America being ****ing idiots. Elect Sanders! Everyone else is evil!

I really wish I could have a space where I could play Splatoon without being interrupted for a few hours so I could join a competitive squad\

By the way guys, I figured out a quick guide for everyone to easily get to S rank:
1.Equip the .96 gal deco
2.Go into a match and run directly to the objective without any strategy
3.Look at someone for about .1 seconds while holding down RZ and they will die (I call this the "instant medusa stare")
4.Just stay right near the objective and you will win pretty much every time

I literally just tried this in A and won 3 games while losing 1, I used almost no strategy and just kinda stood on the tower and shot squids

Unfortunately, I became 10% worse at Splatoon during my experience with this weapon, since this weapon carries you in exchange for your skill

Oh wow, I didn't think anyone except me and my family and a few of my friends were smart enough to tell that Trump is evil
Everyone at my school says that he should be elected because he speaks his mind, which shows that sometimes, cheap, bullshit strategies can work out for you

I'm sick of panic-pressing the right thumb-stick when trying to spin round and shoot someone, when my special is an Inkstrike or an Inkzooka. The worst part is that I CAN'T BLAME ANYONE ELSE!

I'm sick of being at A+ 92 ostensibly one win away from the glorious promised land, getting a win and it being +4. FOUR? Four point wins should be exclusively S and S+ things. Why? Then lose 12 or even 14 points the next round are you ****ing kiddng me?

When you are near ranking up, the loss average becomes 12 and the win average become 12. Also, if the average rank of your team is way better than the enemy team, you will gain less points for winning/more points for losing, and vice versa

I know. Thats exactly what I'm sick of D: Its so arbitrary. Who decides that? Its a 0-100 scale. If you want to make it harder to rank up, make the scale bigger instead of ****ing around with the point allotment.
