Oh and also @pikminfan22 regarding the gear:

Both not my mains (although I play the Slosher Deco once in a while) and I don't know what random slot combinations your gear might have (some items of my inkling unlocked or rerolled totally unexpected subslots so I kept them^^). And I just made this up on the fly, based on what I experimented with since the update, a lot of the time in the shooting range but also in TW and ranked matches.
But since I mostly used different weapons, I could be wrong with everything.

I experimented a lot with the nerfed subsaver and inkrecovery and to have two of any kind of bombs (or 6 burst bombs) in a short amount of time, it's basically necessary two have 2x main subsaver (or more) and ideally 2-5 inkrecovery. I also played with a set with 2x main subsaver and 1x sub subsaver, the more the better (as long as the other subslots are good too). Having faster ink recovery is also important for the short dive into ink in between and the more the better, but if you have to choose between more subsaver or more inkrecovery, you definitely need subsaver more.

Tri-Slosher Nouveau: Because of the seekers, 2x main subsaver, at least 2x sub inkrecovery (I usually have about 4x) and probably at least 1x main mainsaver (or like 3-4x sub mainsaver), because I assume the Tri-Slosher is as inkhungry as the regular Slosher, right? That means Tenacity is out of the question, so any subslots of specialsaver or specialdurationup (which got nerfed, but still useless if the enemy has coldblooded) or specialchargeup could be useful.
Tri-Slosher: For this I would probably remove the subsavers and use Tenacity instead to get the bubbler faster in ranked. This could also go well with specialsaver or specialdurationup (nerfed but with a weakness) for a longer bubbler time (before the nerf about +1 second for 1x mainslot, now about +2 seconds) or specialchargeup.
Carbon Roller Deco: again (for the seekers) 2x main subsaver and 2-5 (or more) sub inkrecovery, not sure how much ink the carbon needs, on some weapons it's enough to just have a lot of inkrecovery and sub saver, but on others you still can't get around using mainsaver (and even then they consume an awful lot of ink, like the Splattershot Pro).
Specialduration up for the Bomb Rush or specialsaver or specialchargeup could be useful subslots since there's no space for tenacity.
Carbon Roller:It depends, if you really want 6 burst bombs with almost no pause, you could go with 2x main subsaver or more. But I think 4-5 are already good so it can be also wise to instead use only 1x main subsaver (ideally + 1 sub subsaver) to be more comfortable throwing the burst bombs because there's more ink left for your main weapon. Of course also lots of the nerfed inkrecovery (on subslots, because apparently 2x inkrec subs are more effective than a mainslot - or Nintendome just did something wrong) and maybe mainsaver.
Since the inkzooka is not one of my favourites, I usually don't augment it, but this would be possible of course. Otherwise maybe run speed up, but in the end all of this depends on the maps and the modes too.

@PikminFan22: Yeah, it turned out to be great after a few matches! Sadly our wins started only after you ranked down, sorry for that! Hope you rank up again soon! As far as I remember, you always had a higher rank than me, so I cannot accept the status quo.

Quad squad it is.

BTW sorry for spamming the Splatoon thread, I keep forgetting the MMOT.

@PikminFan22: A wall of text is a wall of text. I don't know why, but I like thinking about what gear to put together (even for weapons that I don't use myself like yours^^) and hunting down the right combination.
Maybe one day I can open up my own weapon & gear consultant store in Inkopolis.
Saving sets (including weapons) would be also really helpful.
@Blue_Blur: Nice picture. I think I'll need like 10-15 minutes or so (probably less), but you can go ahead with Kazuo until pikminfan22 is done cooking if you want.

I've always thought the Tentatek Splattershot was OP... I think that just proved it.

I wouldn't have imagined four chargers to be that difficult...

I suppose it doesn't help that I had such short range.

So... I think burst bombs are my new least favourite weapon haha.

I mean seriously! That's pretty much all they used!

@yokokazuo: Yeah they were really good with burst bombs. I love using burst bombs, but suction and splat bombs also have their benefits.
@Blue_Blur: Maybe but it was still fun and there were a few nice team moves as well.
