When I checked the Splatnet App during lunch break today I noticed the UI changed a bit. I thought it was just merely cosmetic at first but sheesh, I didn't know how much I wished for a main button to link to the store until they finally did it. Bless, Ninty, bless. :D

And surely they enjoy torturing as we beg for the Hydra Splatling. :mad:
We should try reverse psychology instead: Ninty, don't give us the Hydra, please, anything but the Hydra, nobody liked the weapon anyway!

I think it's working!
Nintendo!! Never add the Hydra Splatling ever! And don't EVER add the Custom Hydra Splatling either! God, please! Don't do it! Please!

Y'know what—the Hydra Splatlings never existed!

All of us Splatoon1 vets are suffering from some sort of mass delusion, shared imagination, Mandela Effect, fandom collaboration, what-have-you. It's an urban legend we made up and elaborated upon so thoroughly that we all began to believe it actually existed.

Wake up sheeple squeeple!! The Hydra Splatling series never existed and doesn't, we just hope Nintendo makes it exist. :confused:

You're absolutely right,
unlike playable octolings, which were in splat 1 but they didn't carry it over to 2 for some dumb bunny reason.
I'm still waiting for playable octolings Mr. Nogami.


Also, I put this weeks bet money on Glooga dualies for tomorrow's release!
They won't give us Hydra (
because it never existed in the first place ), nintendo doesn't like anyone who liked hydra, and it's been a couple weeks since we got a new main weapon
AND and we haven't gotten a dooly for a while now
(and and and there was that "leak" the other week were apparently some players had them unlocked in store for a short bit on accident instead of the gold dynamo... and didn't bother uploading ANY video footage >_> )

Whatever you do Nintendo, don't add the N-ZAP 89 back in. I would have to quit Splatoon 2 if that happened...

(And I just got it today so don't ruin it for me, Nintendo).

You know, I pretty much never saw the Hydra in Splatoon 1, so if anything, they would make more people happy with the second Inkbrush or N'Zap.

Also, I sure got proven wrong quickly,

We are now on week three of variant weapon releases. Bah. This looks like yet another weapon people will use over the weekend and then forget about, there is zero range on that kit.

I give up
I'll just main Goo Tuber
There's no hope
My favorite tweet reply to this release:
Ink Mine and Baller though? I see the troll potential but I don't think the Baller is that good a special on this particular weapon. Meh, not the greatest release on paper, but it could be worse I guess. Why no Hydra though.

Poor Inkbrush came a balancing patch too late.

It's nice to see another weapon with an uncommon sub weapon, but i doubt it's going to be able to put up a fight with the current meta weapons.

What's a Hydra? ;)
I think it's a multi headed beast of some kind. Pretty sure they were in Kid Icarus: Uprising?

Oh, so you mean it's like the Eliters that were good?

FRAAAAAAAAAAAACK!!

(Sadly this forum software refuses to post the below image even though it shows me it's posting it, so here's a link. Blech. https://media.giphy.com/media/IA1q3iIjmZoas/giphy.gif)



That has got to be the most useless weapon in the game. Even 4k Scope is more usable than the inkbrush with the worse kit than the one we already had! Splatoon is sinking to new lows. "Rabbid Mario vs Rabbid Luigi" Splatfest confirmed!!!1

Okay, so I was wrong. They can go three weeks with old variants.

But did they really have to stick with ink mines and baller on a melee weapon?! Especially a low damage output melee weapon. Oof!

Oh? What's that everyone? I can't hear you over the sound of me being right!

I hope this means next week will have a big weapon release. Maybe Dark and Light Tetra Dualies?
Is it wrong to hold a Nintendo employee hostage if it leads to the release of all not-yet-released weapons? It's at least a moral gray area, right? Right, guys? Right? Anybody?

Heck this might be the first weapon I don't even buy to try at all. I mean it's so horrifyingly bad. It's not even a challenge weapon. The inkbrush is a challenge weapon. This is just the bad version of that.

Go for Trinnen. Nobody would release the hydra to recover Reggie. Even I wouldn't.
