  1. I'm tired of people letting me get flanked when they have a clear view of the area around me and any approaching enemies
  2. I'm tired of team mates not flanking themselves and huddling together to get slaughtered en masse
  3. I'm tired of people just jumping online without a care about map or mode and taking vital time to figure where they are what they're doing
  4. I'm tired of either being the only one playing the objective or being the only one supporting the objective being completed
  5. I'm tired of people trying to spawn camp when more than one of the enemy are not at spawn
  6. I'm tired of not being as good as I'd like

I'm sick of team members that grab the Rainmaker and go nowhere with it. I just had a match where a member of my team sat for 1 minute with the rainmaker, just firing shots while the other team members cleared a path and then got splatted by the 4 vs 3 advantage. Eventually the member splatted themselves (carry time countdown) and we finally had a REAL rainmaker carrier advance it to an eventual win.

I am tired of not having more opportunities like I have when, as a 40s level, with a couple of 20s and a single digit, we spawn camped three 50s and a 40. Most of the matches are not that unbalanced, but it does good to the lower level beginners to realize that brawn doesn't mean a thing on its own.

Brains, folks, brains, and a lack of arrogance.

I'm sick of getting owned by players that are low-leveled than me. I've come across one last night while trying out Mahi-Mahi Resort and I swear to God for a level 7 player, he or she is constantly owning my *** along with having good strategies. Something tells me it's a longtime player that just made another account or a person who got started, but is actually good for some weird reason.

Your hunch is correct, it sounds like an alt. Alt accounts are actually surprisingly uncommon in this game. Recently I found a level 5 that played like a level 50 with all of the hopping and advanced techniques that a Level 5 would obviously wouldn't know. I guess some want to go through the game again. I don't know why, since leveling takes a long time once you get into the 30's. You want to know what's infuriating? Getting splatted by a low level that actually plays like one and then losing the match due to the low level's antics.

I keep thinking it was an alt account because there's no way a person in very low levels is this good. Even I don't understand why they would make another account because like you said, by the time you reach the 30's, it takes like 20 years to level up.

Tell me about it. I get really salty when a noob owns me.

I'm sick of three things... a) spawn camping b) when I'm matched with 3 level 25ish people against 2 or more level 40+ people (like come on) and c) facing high level groups of Japanese players with a mostly English player team.

I'm sick of the **** turf war matchmaking. I think there's enough info on those out so I won't elaborate.

I am sick of Spyke rerolls. Especially trying to get Shiny or Pure gear.

Worst feeling is when you get the exact same sub-abilities as you started, after spending all your Cash...
Simple solution: Spyke is a one man casino. Don't gamble.

I started a second account so I could play with some different weapons in ranked without losing my hard fought rank. Cause I played exclusively with my Krak On Roller up until rank B, and I'd try and play ranked with chargers but would just die straight away because I wasn't anywhere near good enough. Now I'm A and still only good with the Krak On Roller and the Carbon Rollers.

So I have my roller account with my hard fought rank, and my experiment account, where I'm trying tons of different new weapons.

That is a reason to have an alt. I just want the Octoshot (Tentatek is wayyyy too ugly for me but I love it's kit and obligatory Octoling reasons) but it's a long way until 40 and I'd never do it again. But I understand it's to protect your rank on your main while playing around with different weapons in modes that isn't Turf Wars.

I'm down with this thread.

I'm sick of being put in a team with 4 rollers.

I'm sick of people quitting when the aformentioned team happens.

I'm sick of Tower Defense. Yeah let's all just jump on the tower at on--SPLAT

I'm sick of teams that all super jump to the same lone player on the enemy side.

I'm sick of people who don't know how to play Turf War. They just want to shoot other people. Instant loss.

More later.

I'm sick of people on my team trying to play Ranked Mode like it's Turf War.

Really? I get the exact opposite. I get people who will either scatter and flee like kittens to a far corner once I get on the tower, or worse, people who go over to the tower's goal and wait there, as if they want to be the one standing on the tower when it reaches the goal. As a result, I spend a lot of Tower Control matches where I am the only one who gets on the tower. If I play support and insist on support, all that happens is that the opponents ride the tower all the way to their goal because no one on my team will get on.

I'm probably the only person who thinks this but:
Having only two maps available per mode at a time. There's so many others, having just two at a time really just stinks. Also Getting the same stage several times in a row. #SaltySquid
I agree!

Trust me, you are not the only one who thinks that. I would love to see 3 maps in a rotation (like how they do it during Splatfest) or at least shorter rotations (maybe 2 hour rotations instead of 4 hour ones) since playing on only 2 maps for 4 hours does get a bit dull at some point.

I'm sick of rollers killing me from any angle by flicking ink upwards like a bucket with a way wider range but every time I switch to roller my K/D consistently leans towards the negative.

any tips anyone

roller used to be fun and somehow I got really crappy at it
