Topic: Splatoon 3

I hate it when my team and I have the lead in a match then at the last minute the other team makes us lose the lead… I’m suffering in series right now because of it 🥲

@CaleBoi25 Making it into s rank using undercover is much more impressive than getting to x rank and then start using it, so I'd argue that you're probably a better undercover player than me!

@luckyseven Yeah, overtime sort of sucks for both sides

I have huge respect for any undercover brella main - the dedication you players must have is insane

Been making better progress with Salmon Run, getting above evp 200 multiple rotations last week.

Being new territoty for me, I was surprised how smalle the playerbase was small on Sunday above evp 200. Even after taking a couple 5-10 minute breaks, I still got teamed with players I played with earlier. On the plus side, the teams were generally better, but even even at evp 250 I was still getting teammates that don't paint walls, keep paint on the ground, or shoot down drizzler missiles.

Nice to get an evp 200 badge for a harder map like Salmonid Smokeyard. Based one what I've seen in the past three rotations over evp 200, I'm not sure I have the skill to get to evp 400.

EDIT:
I redacted my question about Hazard Level Max for splatoon 3 vs splatoon 2, because I found want I wanted to know on splatoonwiki. https://splatoonwiki.org/wiki/Salmon_Run_Next_Wave_data

@WoomyNNYes Must be nice to not be stuck in Pro+2...

The next patch (presumably with balance adjustments) should be out tonight if the Mahi Mahi maintenance is anything to go by so does anyone here have any last-minute hopes/predictions for it? I'm personally hoping that Curling Bomb gets an ink cost reduction (hopefully to around 45%) since I feel like it'd make a ton of weapons (namely Splat Roller and Painbrush) so much more fun to use

@CaleBoi25 I only kept EVP recently because I'd stop playing if I dropped to EVP 10, then wait a day+ for next rotation and for rank to reset back to EVP 40. I don't know how long I'll keep that up. I think there will be days I care more about playing than I do about keeping EVP.

I've been blabbing in here about being stuck in Pro 1 to Pro 3 since April-ish. XD So, I know your pain.😉😁

@Fizza Hoping for undercover buffs. If they don't buff it sometime soon, I swear I'm going to go crazy.

When the next patch gets datamined I hope it reveals what outfits the Deep Cut amiibos give

@fizza UNDERCOVER BUFFS

you know when I said I wanted Curling's ink cost to go down, this wasn't quite what I had in mind but goddamnit I'll take it nonetheless XD

Very satisfied with this patch overall though; yeah Trizooka/Splattershot getting more or less off scot-free is frustrating and some of the PFS changes are....strange to put it mildly, but the buffs given to a majority of the main weapons actually feel like they're going to be really substantial (particularly the ones for S-Blast and Hydra, good lord I am TERRIFIED of Hydra), Curling finally got it's ink-cost buff (not a big one yes, but a nice one all the same) and Killer Wail might actually be extremely threatening depending on how things pan out (might actually pick vanilla Tri-Stringer back up because of it).

so yeah: pretty happy overall and I'm very excited to try out stuff like S-Blast and Splat Roller again!

Really liking the new version of Mahi! It’s a lot bigger and no longer feels cramped

@luckyseven
Agreed!
It’s turned from an awful map to an ok map

I have just discovered I will not be able to participate in Splatoween, possibly at all!

@luckyseven
When they announced that they are remodelling Mahi, I didn't think that the changes would make a lot of a difference. But wow! The stage feels like Mahi, but totally different at the same time. (Turf War. Hadn't got a chance to play it in ranked mode)

@Budda It is more open, which is a big plus, but the map still doesn’t feel fantastic… but glad you like it. I wish it had gotten a right side flank, but it’s still pretty good.

Deep Cut amiibo unlocks have been revealed:

Haven’t played the new Mahi but super glad they’ve changed it. I think that was the only map I actively didn’t like.

I don't care for the Shiver and Frye outfits TBH. But I love the Big Man hoodie!

I love the new outfits! Shiver’s is my fave, can’t wait to wear the full set once I get all of the pieces! Also did anyone listen to the datamined Splatoween music? They sound so good
