So you guys, I picked up this rhythm game called Squid Beats 2! It's full price but oddly barebones. =*( No way to save my records, no way to play with friends or create dance crews, no VS modes, no story mode, no online—just pretty basic! But when I backed out of the game though, there was this weird shooter game expansion content called Splatoon 2 where all the development money went towards.

It's actually pretty fun! In fact, there's this friend mode called Private Battles I think I'll be playing this Saturday, August 12th @ 5:30PM PT/8:30PM ET (1:30AM BST/2:30AM) with the Spawn Point crew!

But that's not all! You're also welcome to join us as we cycle through the ranked modes and maps: playing, practicing, experimenting, improving, having fun, and lessening that salt comes with playing rank matches. And afterwards we'll chill, fool around in turf war, maybe do some league battles, and even grind in Salmon Run if it's available.

So if you're looking for some folks to play with, hit us up! And if the timezone is inconvenient for you, let us know, we'd like to have enough people to create an additional group session or two. =)

Yes! Very much so! We used to have an 8:30 PM BST/GMT match but eventually lost enough people playing around that time that it wasn't worth it any more. :(

(P‮robably didn't help those sessions after I had so much trouble making it on time‬.)

One of those sessions, huh love?

Well~ if you want to take a break from random teammates and risking your rank, you're more than welcome to spend a session with the Spawn Point crew!

Yep, this Saturday, August 19th @ 5:30PM PT/8:30PM ET (1:30AM BST/2:30AM) will be the weekly Private Battle session. We'll be cycling through the ranked modes and maps: playing, practicing, experimenting, improving, having fun, and lessening that salt comes with playing rank matches.

Think of it as less of a outright competitive practice session and more of a competitively casual training session. Maybe not as serious as some would like, but your skill level will still wind up improving. =p

So feel free to join us, even if it's just for one session, and we'll teach you the true meaning of love teamwork! Or something like that...

And if the timezone is inconvenient for you, let us know, we'd like to have enough people to create an additional group session or two. =)

Manta Marina Maria is now live! A brand new map! In turf and ranked battles alike!

But are you not feeling this map? Not doing too well on it?

Well~ how about a friendly training session withthe Spawn Point crew? Because this Saturday, August 26th @ 5:30PM PT/8:30PM ET (1:30AM BST/2:30AM) we'll be conducting our weekly Private Battles, playing ranked matches through night across every mode and map. Including the new Manta Maria!

So super jump over to us and we'll help whip you into shape to where your foes will be tasting that salty sea as you smear them across the decks!

So~... no splatfest this weekend. Got any sploon plans?

Well then, how about a Private Battle romp with the Spawn Point crew this Saturday, September 9th @ 5:30PM PT/8:30PM ET (1:30AM BST/2:30AM)?

Outside of splatfest we roll every weekend, playing ranked matches through night across every mode and map. You're always welcome to join us and play!

No rank required, no membership necessary, previous and current associations not a matter.

The Kelp Dome has returned! My vanilla heavy splatling—now calling itself Heavy Splatling Deco, has also returned!

What better way to celebrate and give both a whirl than during The Spawn Point's weekly private battle session, this Saturday, September 16th @ 5:30PM PT/8:30PM ET (1:30AM BST/2:30AM)?

A chance to try out Kelp Dome in all the different rank modes. A chance to properly try out the heavy deco without dropping in rank. A chance to practice all the rank modes, all the maps, with whatever weapon you choose—with only a pinch of its usual salt.

Super jump in on this!

So who here knows how to use a blaster? Any blaster? Not many?

Would you like to figure out how to use them? Especially in ranked mode? Well, then how about you give them a whirl with The Spawn Point crew at one of our weekly private battle sessions, this Saturday, September 23rd @ 5:30PM PT/8:30PM ET (1:30AM BST/2:30AM)!

Because what better way to learn a weapon than with squids who aren't total randoms and willing provide you with some actual feedback, eh?

Not sure how I'm feeling about latest in the brella class. Feels more like a reskin than a different sort of brella.

But if you'd like to give it a try yourself, and pretty nervous about using it, let alone playing it in a ranked match, well maybe you should consider playing with The Spawn Point crew at one of our weekly private battle sessions, this Saturday, September 30th @ 5:30PM PT/8:30PM ET (1:30AM BST/2:30AM)!

We'll be enjoying ourselves in a bit of a tussle throughout the various ranked modes and maps for hours on in. Perfect chance and place to work on your skills and safely give the new brella a whirl. Maybe you'll figure out how to use it. Maybe you'll discover you'll like it. Either way I know you're gonna enjoy your time playing with us! =)

Now that the latest Saltfest Splatfest is over it's back to The Spawn Point's regularly scheduled weekly Private Battle session!

But now with some added zing!

That's right, latest system update adds video capture!—granted it's only 720p@30fps for 30 seconds at a time, but it's a start.

Yet all the same, super jump on over this Saturday, October 21st @ 5:30PM PT/8:30PM ET (1:30AM BST/2:30AM) to play some private ranked battles with us! Good place to fool around with that new capture function after all, yeah? *nudgenudge winkwink nodnod hinthint* Eh?

*So how's everyone enjoying that Super Legend of Mario: Breath of the Odyssey that just dropped?

Well if you're already finished (somehow), taking a short break, or waiting to get your copy, then how about journeying on over to Splatoon 2 and play some Private Battle matches with The Spawn Point crew this Saturday, October 28th @ 5:30PM PT/8:30PM ET (1:30AM BST/2:30AM)!!

In fact, along with this week's new weapon release—the return of the (neutered) Gold Dynamo Roller—we also got a new map to play on: Blackbelly Skatepark. Sometimes known in first Splatoon as Lagbelly Skatepark, or even Lagberry Saltpark by yours truly, we're gonna test and see if that name still sticks and what has changed as we play it and other maps in their various ranked configurations.

So c'mon over and join us as we swim down memory lane with hopefully less lag and none of the disconnects! =p

Wurst. Update. EVAR!!

But that's besides the point. What matters is the update is here!


And that the last of the OG weapons are returning!


New [returning] weapon. New map. More gear. Added hair and legging styles. And more! That's a lot to play with!

And this Saturday, November 25th The Spawn Point crew is gonna put some time in to play with all the new stuff this 2.0 update is giving us during our weekly private battle session @ 5:30PM PT/8:30PM ET (1:30AM BST/2:30AM), yeah!

It's gonna be wild, it's gonna be fun, and it's open—whether you're a member, friend, or stranger you're more than welcome to jump in with us!

With the Hydra Splatling finally released last week, the circle has been completed. All of Splatoon 1's main weapons are present and accounted for!

Now to continue rolling out the really new weapons!

Like the Glooga Dualies with their hot glue gun inking action!

But what's that I hear? You'd like to try these out in a ranked mode without having to put up with randos? And you'd like to put in some time with the Hydra Splatling? And you missed out on MakoMart?

Well if you're free this Saturday, December 2nd @ 5:30PM PT/8:30PM ET (1:30AM BST/2:30AM) then you're more than welcome to join The Spawn Point crew's weekly public private battle session. A couple hours of rank mode shenanigans with half the salt and none of the de-ranking!

And if you enjoyed your time with us and would like to stick around, well then you're in luck! Because next week on December 9th, along with our weekly scheduled public private battle session we'll also be holding an in-group Special Tournament event for members. 2v2 shenanigans in a best 2 out 3 matches! But these ain't no ordinary matches, nope! We're talking about competitive bumper brushes and bombs only splat zones!

Don't know who to pair up with or can't find a partner? Don't worry, we got ya covered!

So whether you want to just play private battles with us, or join up to play what will be one of our many in-group mini-tournaments, or maybe just chill with us in turf war and salmon run, just super jump on by and say "HEWWO!"

YARGH!!

Beginning of a new year and not only am I late to post the announcement but I also don't have a picture! T_T


The holidays are over and it's a brand new year, so The Spawn Point are kicking off their first 2018 Public Private Battle session this Saturday, January 6th @ 5:30PM PT/8:30PM ET (1:30AM BST/2:30AM), yeah!!

What is our Public Private Battle session? Well it's a neat, near weekly get together for members, and even nonmembers, to play ranked battles together and maybe some mini games time and audience permitting.

One part practice, one part testing ground, one part scrim, many parts fun! And it's a way to play ranked battles with less stress and salt! So all skill levels are welcome to participate! And membership is not necessary but enjoyment is. :p

Who else wants to try the new Goo Tuber Custom as well? In a ranked match? I know I do~♪!

But you don't want to risk your rank doing that, do you? Well you're in luck because this Saturday, February 10th @ 5:30PM PT/8:30PM ET (1:30AM BST/2:30AM) The Spawn Point will be hosting their weekly Public Private Battle session!

It's a neat little get-together for members, and even nonmembers, to play ranked battles together and maybe some mini games, time and audience permitting.
