I guess going back to regional fests is Nintendo's solution to Shiver's team winning a lot and Frye's team almost never winning in global fests. I've liked having Splatoon 3's fests being all global until now. Oh well. There could still be a global Frostyfest this December.

@Croctopus
It was a given that we'll get regional Splatfests. You can change your region for Splatfests after all.

@luckyseven congrats!!

On the topic of d-pad options, I think it would be nice if they added an ‘attack’ and ‘defend’ option in the ranked modes- it’s simple to understand and it encourages good decision making

I may have to see the team colors to decide.

edit: Ew, fist bump color. Gross. I get that it's skin color, but I think yellow or something else would look better. Sure, the color works for chocolate milk, but it's not chocolate milk.

I choose Team Hug. Yes, you read that right; a Shiver fanboy like me is temporarily breaking from her. It's high time I choose a team based more on what I like than mostly just for the character. I'll enjoy Splatfest far more that way. But if Shiver starts having a losing streak, I vow to redeem her...

Even though I'm an introvert, there is something to be said about a good hug. It can be a powerful thing. Team Hug has green ink. Octopuses "hug" as a form of attack. I believe Hug will be the favorite. It'll be popular, and popular teams always win.

Handshakes are my second choice since a good, hearty shake is formal and dignified. I'm not a germaphobe. Fist bumps are a satisfying new feature in this game but I rarely ever make them in real life. I'd rather do high fives.

On another note, I got my Deep Cut plushies today. They are ADORABLE. With my Squid Sisters and Off the Hook, everyone is here!

The last thing I expected to hear this week was the return of regional Splatfests but I’m torn on what to pick. Hand shakes are formal but I love Shiver, fist bumps are fun and I usually just give hugs to my family. Although it may be good for the results from now on I hope Splatfests don’t stay regional permanently
@Croctopus Ugh I want the Deep Cut plushies so badly. I already have their amiibo preordered but their plushies are so cute, I want the Shiver one the most!

xenoblade!!!

@_Lime Thanks! And yeah telling my teammates this way never helps because they don’t listen lol

I was honestly creeped out in the September 2023 Splatfest announcement, when Deep Cut ended with their usual "get your votes in and your Splatfest tee", and then...nothing for a few seconds, prompting Frye to wonder why the camera's still running and Big Man suggesting that they unplug and NOT plug it back in (for humor)...and then BIG RUN announcement!

My only five-star weapon are my beloved Dualie Squelchers, and that took an eternity. Too much work. For my favorite weapons, I normally just want the three-star holographic stickers at most.

I think Frostyfest will be in December and a New Year's Splatfest was supposedly datamined but I hope Big Run can be January at the latest. Hopefully this will be the one when we can finally fight a new king...

The team I'm going for is Team Hug, since that resonates with me more. I love a good hug... especially from my family.

I know everyone is having a blast playing Mario Kart's Wave 6 this weekend, but heads up, Salmon Run has a golden rotation going right now. These don't come too frequently so try to get on the action!

It's very weird. Today I only struggled a little with veteran players.. It was unusual harder than it should be. On the other hand, non veterans played much better than usual. Though I didn't lose any shift regardless.
Maybe the veterans turned their brains off or something, because of the Grizzco weapons. lol

The solution to bad teams is to carry the game. The only way for that is to get better yourself. Of course you can only do so much. But it increases your chance to win, or at least get to wave 3. A strategy I often use is to stay alive at any cost, kill lessers(they love to ignore them...), get rid of dangerous bosses and collect as many gold eggs possible.

@Budda Ohhh, I wish we could share replays of full jobs so people here could help me improve, and also see what I'm dealing with,

That's sound advice. Yeah, I'm pretty good at staying alive. If I didn't run out of ink, I could do a much better job of carrying a team. Several times this morning, there were too many things that needed shooting, and not enough ink. It's times like that, I wish my gear abilities could boost ink recovery in SR.

Something wild happened to me today when I found myself inadvertently playing "co-op" Salmon Run. Two of my crewmates disconnected while we were still in the helicopter. Funny how the helicopter shakes when someone disconnects. The other one just disappeared before we left. Surprisingly, my partner and I managed to clear the job! The first wave even had fog. Talk about a Dynamic Duo.

Hope we get a Chill Season trailer soon! Fun fact: today marks a year since the 2022 one was uploaded

xenoblade!!!

@luckyseven
We usually get infos/trailer for the next season, the week after the last Splatfest of the current season.

@Budda I think between Black Friday deals and Thanksgiving will mean the latest the trailer would happen is Monday (Monday would also fit the previous pattern that you brought up). Last year we saw Nintendo announce MK8 Deluxe DLC wave 3 on November 21st (Monday) which coincided with MK8 Deluxe related Black Friday deals.
