Topic: Splatoon - OT

100% agree with what @MasterWario wrote.

This! There were so many games were I or someone else on my team managed to decide the match without any doubt (mostly in ranked though) and apart from very close overtime wins, that's the best feeling this game is able to give to its players. I crave that feeling and want to constantly get better at it and it's working, slowly ranking up to the top. ^^

I agree that yourself can be the deciding factor for matches, I ranked down an hour ago. But I managed to get a good winning streak going and rank up back to S+ because I decided to change up my strategies a bit. I've had many matches where I was able to turn the tide of the battle as I was able to sneak up at the enemy base so my teammates were able to Super Jump to me and splat everybody while I grabbed the Rainmaker when the opposing team was distracted.

S Baby!!! Screw you Splatoon, this is my Third trip to S and I'm done! I'll only play for fun now

@shani: They didn't say that they match you based on that ini the latest version but the post game screen was changed to show the team based on Performance over the last X amount of matches in Ranked instead of by k/d ratio. Based on that I've just observed where I was placed based on my current w/l streaks

@shani: thanks, it's nice to know my points made good sense!

@Iggly: That's one of my favorite things about Rainmaker. The sneaky plays are real!

The only time this isn't the case is when teammate dc's on you which is how I ranked down out of S+. Should have stopped before though as servers just seemed bad that day.

@wisdomsprince: That change is only cosmetic, it only affects the order in which the names are displayed. I doubt it has any other effect.

You pizza losers are going down this Saturday!

You will be eating burgers for weeks when I am through with you!

Now that we're talking about ranks, it seems I'll be stuck in S forever. Dang it I want to know what it feels like to be a S+ rank... At least once!

My goal is getting at least A+ and I'm not that far away from it, but who knows, maybe after that I'll want to reach S too. ^^

I just went 17-1 and still lost A+ rank is just full of garbage at this point, like seriously lmao.

Anyone want to squad as I can't take much more of this.

Maybe it is just that I am bad at Splatoon, but I swear I get paired with the worst teamates in Ranked Battles. I usually go like 10-4 in Battles, but I have been stuck at B+ FOREVER!

@Jazzer94: I can play if you're still on.

@Blue_Blur: I am can't sleep and want to get back to S, room up.

Be right back, just wanna reroll the abilities on my shirt.

Just my luck to roll and get all special duration up, when my main has the Inkstirke.

@Jazzer94: What is your current rank at?

@shani: I didn't say they changed how it works I said it makes it more clear what they are using to do the matchmaking

@Kinan: I completely know where you're coming from. Even winning wasn't brining me much joy because I had lost so much in the run up to my S triumph. They have Turf Wars for Unranked matches but I really wish they had other modes in Unranked (maybe you shouldn't be able to level up or down in a squad, it would be more for fun) because sometimes I would like to play the other modes just for fun. Actually, that's why I wanted to be ranked S so I can play in Squad battles without having to worry and always having to use my best gear etc. It's supposed to be fun after all and it hasn't been fun for a few weeks now

@Blue_Blur: A+ 66. think its too late UK time for me to be using charger missing loads of easy shots.

@Jazzer94: Depending on your weapon that may or may not be useful. One of my problems is with people who will take Charger weapons in Rainmaker and tower defense, pick a spot deep in our zone and rack up kills. That's great and all but unless you hit every hot eventually we'll lose because the rest of the team is playing offensive but are a man short essentially. You have to know your role
