Topic: Splatoon 3

@CaleBoi25 I’m gonna miss the fest too because of Taylor swifts new album and I just got a ps5. I’m rooting for team bear cubs tho!

Damn, daylight savings threw me off again. I thought Splatfest started in 35 mins but it's 1 hour 35 mins.

The current SR weapons are sort of ok. All shooters that can paint. (edit: forgive me, this rotation ends in 1.5 hours)
Nzap
Undercover Brella (which has semi-automatic fire),
ballpoint splatling,
.92 Gal

Although, the next rotation doesn't look awful. Splatoon 3 SR schedule: https://splatoon3.ink/salmonrun

@Croctopus Did you use an amiibo in photo mode to get that shot with Big Man? Or is Big Man available for photo mode because of splatfest week?

@OctolingKing13 Because of Taylor Swifts new album? What? LOL.

@vio Eh, Swifties gonna Swiftie.

OK guys, hear me out:
If Super Switch launches in Q2 2025, I think we might get a direct port of S1. OG music, story, weapons, kits... EVERYTHING exactly the same, other than things like the map would be opened with X, and stuff like Inkstrike would now be thrown, since the map-on-the-second-screen gimmick isn't around anymore.

@Croctopus Of the five rounds I did manage to play before leaving, four ended in comm errors for me, within the first 30 seconds--Don't assume everyone is rage quitting, because I sure wasn't!

I dont see a port of the online game (even though I'd like it). I think Nintendo seems to focus splatoon online into one active game. Having more than one online Splatoon game hurts the size of each games' online community pool size. Having both Spaltoon 2 and Splatoon 3 on one console might be a rare thing?

This Splatfest so far has felt like a mixture between mirror matches and 10x matches. Hopefully I'm able to get a 100x or 333x battle soon and the mirror matches become less common especially when I switch over to Tricolor when it goes live in a few hours.

EDIT: I got yet another 10x battle and now have the Gold Deep Cut badges as a result.

I am so sad to be missing this Splatfest, I was hoping to get the last 10x win I needed, but that will have to wait till next time I suppose...

Just had my first session and I've been getting a good amount of wins for the teddy bears. No mirror matches, and I've only been matched up with the bunnies. Didn't see anybody on the baby chicks team yet, they're probably the least popular team, so I don't know how they're doing.

C'mon Bears! Do well in my absence, bring on the hairmageddon!

Tricolor on Mahi Mahi Resort is complete chaos.

I made my dream GRB kit

I'm skeptical the vote numbers are always so evenly split, like 33%, 32%, 33%. I don't think I've ever seen a really lopsided splatfest vote, where one team is significantly higher or lower.

The vote percentages usually aren't very even really. The Friday vs Saturday vs Sunday Splatfest was the most extreme I could find quickly, with around 22%, 66% and 10% of the votes respectively.

The other categories like clout and conch shells tend to be pretty even as they're averaged out per player rather than an overall total.

How can anyone be on Team Bunnies? They are so boring, no personality. Just hop around, that's about it LOL. Team Grizzco FTW!

Mahi Mahi Resort is terrible for tri-thingy battles.

@vio Tell that to my friend, he has 10 rabbits and loves them to death.
