@Megumi: There's at least 5 to 10 different variants of that post.
Oh I might play this today but I'm not feeling well, my hand hurts, I have a headache, or I just rather play another game.
Or I might get back into this but I don't know I might want to play monster Hunter instead. I'm just picking on you but I've seen that post 100x. Just different words in there is all.

Does someone else find s rank full of players with lag?
I've noticed quite a lot of players with lag, no just specifically S rank players. Lag is annoying, but you have to expect it while playing online. It seems that whenever I'm in a squad group, I don't experience as much lag from others as I usually do. I don't know if there is any correlation, or if it's just a coincidence; either way, it makes playing online a lot more fun!
@TheXReturns: Hello back. Well good thing I didn't try Hammerhead while it was just in rotation then.
@OorWullie Yeah I'm sure with 4v4 it'd be a lot more interesting. The thing that surprised me was how big the splat zone was; there are some unique strategies you could use with such a huge zone.
I would have never guessed Weezing was so useful until I played a HeartGold Nuzlocke! My YouTube Channel! Video game related, of course! My Pushmo Levels
@pikminfan22: Ah you mean what each ability does exactly? I thought you meant more in general. Didn't want to tell you what you may already know (since your lvl and rank are higher than mine ).
Judging from your gear in Splatnet (I can't identify which roller that is), I can say that you're special last 7,37 seconds instead of 6,32 seconds (based on this video). But that wouldn't help you if your special was an Ink Strike or Killer Wail. Because it only prolongs the amount of time you have to aim it. But the duration of the Strike/Wail doesn't change.
Another example: If you had bomb range up, it would be useless with an ink mine, splash wall, beacon, point sensor.
[I hope it was okay to use that picture, otherwise I'll take it down. ]
@VeeFlamesNL: Of course. The column with the 5x tells you which brand has a 5x probability for the sub slots for that ability in that row.
For example: any item from Firefin has a 5x chance for "ink saver (sub)" on the sub slots (in comparison to any other ability on the sub slots of that hat/clothes/shoes). At the same time, everything from Firefin has a 1/2 chance for "increase ink refill", so it's 2x less likely than any other ability.
You can also find those brand-specific probabilities in the splatoonwiki articles of every ability.
That thing with the brand probabiliies was the main reason I went back and researched all those links, I think it was even someone in this thread (about a month ago?) who hinted at it. There's also a lot of stuff on reddit (I never used reddit before Splatoon). Because it means with enough snails or money, you can build yourself a perfect set. Of course it doesn't always make sense to stack your abilities, because many of them give diminishing returns, like ink saver, damage, defense and others.
But Special Saver for example doesn't diminish at all, so if you manage to have three mains and (I think) 9 subs, you would reach 100% and never lose anything from your special gauge when you get splatted.
And since three sub abilities more or less equal one main, you could also have up to six different abilities with an equally strong effect.
This is an example from my own gear, I got it from Spyke way before I knew about the brands. Through this, I bascially get shoes that not only have one main slot ink resistance, but also (more or less) one additional main slot (=3x sub slot) of swim speed up.
@shani: ... Wow. I mean, I never thought those columns would mean probability or something.
Where's that darn guide when you need it! XD @Rexcalibr I don't know either since I just played it again today after a long absence. But I imagine it's changed fairly significantly, since the update nerfed some weapons and removed some map elements.
@Rexcalibr: To me it feels about the same. I haven't really noticed the Kraken user being unable to move for a second after the Kraken ends, the blasters feel like they have the same amount of range. The two things that did change that I noticed immediately are with the N'Zaps and the Squelchers. I main the Dual Squelcher, and it feels so much more powerful. I use the N'Zaps from time to time, and you now move a lot faster while shooting with them.
@Blue_Blur: Ah, good to know! I hadn't tested all the changes yet. And the Dual Squelcher and Zapper are some of my alternative weapons. So they increased the damage of the squelchers? I always found the Zapper fast enough, though.
I'm pretty tired (after four hours of sleep last night and a rough week), but if we manage to round up a few players, how about some private battles?
I'm still working (or more precisely, waiting for that damn F1 qualifying to start or get cancelled), but if they can't start in half an hour, it will be rescheduled for tomorrow and I can call it a day.
Kraken delay is actually quite a big nerf as if they're too close they'll die and general roller killing ability is noticeable to given the amount of sub par players who don't sweet spot.
@TheXReturns: yes and no,i practice shooting the balloon dummies so i know my weapons range and were to position myself but i don't go in actively looking for rival squids;my main focus is on the objective. I like shooting from under the grates of the tower. Its almost unblockable unless they see it coming and jump off.
@Blue_Blur: Yeah I had looked through it before the update but then forgot most of it again. ^^ But seeing it now, it comes back to me.
I forgot another task I had to do, think I'll need another hour or so.
My GOTY? Legend Of Zelda: Splat of the child. Ah no, I meant LoZ: Breath of the SPLATOOOON!
@OorWullie: Yeah sure! @pikminfan22: I saw it. We wanted to join but it was full. We could do tri-squads but we're both nearing the bottom end of rank B so we would have to win. If you want you can also join me/us in TW.
