Topic: Splatoon 3

@AccessibleDaydream by the way, I checked out Tristrike Tuesdays on YT, and saw they have been streamed before. Will your sets be streamed??
@Xenoblade-Fan Candy Coated Rocks! I just love it so much lol. That said, my favorite Playlist are the Powering Up and New Adventures ones, alongside my custom Splatfest X Rainbow Roadplaylist.

@Xenoblade-Fan I don't have Nintendo Music but in-game I am always listening to Seasource. It has always been my favorite!

@Xenoblade-Fan unfortunately most of my favourite Splatoon tracks are from 3’s post launch updates and DLC, so I can’t really listen to my top tracks. On Nintendo Music my favourites are probably:

Into the Light
Color Pulse
Tidal Rush
Spicy Calamari Inkantation
Hide and Sleek
Calamari Inkantation 3Mix
Anarchy Rainbow
Shark Bytes
Fly Octo Fly ~ Ebb and Flow (Octo)

My personal list in no particular order:
Fly octo fly
Color Pulse
Nasty Majesty
Liquid Sunshine
Calamari Incantation 3mix
Sea me Now
#8 regret (the octo expansion 8 ball song)
Till depths do us part

And my absolute favourite with no sarcasm whatsoever, Toxic Anoxic

@SplatRay001 Yes! I love the SashiMori music!!

@CaleBoi25 our one set was streamed! And our one pickup mate streamed our entire run!

Here's the timestamped link to the start of the actual tournament.

And on YouTube, in case you can't use Twitch:

Our actual run of the tournament goes from 1 hour and 5 minutes in to 2 hours and 45 minutes in.

I can't find the commentated set though. 😔

We didn't get last place at least! We got 17th out of 21 teams! It was not as exhausting either.

@AccessibleDaydream Hey, you didn't win, but sounds like a good run! I will check out the games in a bit, after I finish a few other things--gives me something to look forward to!

@Xenoblade-Fan out of the ones on Nintendo Music specifically, my favorites are:

• Clickbait
• Soak & Stomp
• Pour It On
• Inkoming!
• Fins and Fiddles
• Seafoam Shanty
• Blitz It!
• Wave Prism
• Chopscrewy
• Ebb & Flow
• Muck Warfare
• Shark Bytes
• Splattack! (Octo)
• Fly Octo Fly (Ebb & Flow)
• Into the Light

I'll have to come back with my others once I'm actually in the game today!

(into the Light makes me cry every time :'))

@AccessibleDaydream I love Pour It On!! I always turn it on in the lobby haha.
@Dev1024 Congrats! I am working my way up with the Swigs, both vanilla and Express.

@CaleBoi25 did you ever get a chance to watch some of the tournament from last night?

Today I learned that I’m going through the beginning stages of becoming a flex support, rather than a frontline support. It blew my mind to realize I’m more comfortable with Snipewriter than I am with Splash-O-Matic.

If anyone plays the New York Times games, the theme for today’s Strands is Off the Hook. Don’t think it’s Splatoon related but it’s still a fun coincidence

@AccessibleDaydream Yes, I did! Who was your Dread player? (The one whose POV was uploaded?) He was fun to watch. You were good with your callouts, by the way!

It's just been revealed via the NSO section that there's special NSO icons for participating in FrostyFest, just like what happened with Grand Fest in September.

EDIT: Turns out it was announced on the Japan Splatoon twitter account 2 days ago.

@CaleBoi25 That was Mocha (pronouns: she/her)!

OctoAri (they/them or she/her) is my team captain (and the former captain of Monsters Ink prior to them disbanding)
</> DJ (she/her, but you knew that!) is, of course, me, and I was on Pencil for most of the tournament
Mocha is a former teammate of Ari’s, back when Monsters Ink was still going
LNDZ (Lindsey, she/her) was a former sub for Monsters Ink, as was Ash (pronouns they/them) who was brought in to help me with pencil-specific things.

@AccessibleDaydream Cool, thanks! I have been using Dread a ton lately so I've been looking up all the gameplay VODs I can!

Are there any blob players out there? Nobody plays it but it’s my favourite.

@Xenoblade-Fan Oh yeah it is! I am always doing strands so this is fun (but yeah not Splatoon related).

@Xenoblade-Fan BLOB DECO USER RIGHT HERE! It is absolute trash but I love it lol.

@Xenoblade-Fan Hear, hear! Fellow Bloblobber user here. Certainly one of my fav.
