zinc rivet
#

:)

#

I hope my switch wakes up from its coma

#

its been since totk released that i used it

#

poor thing is a 1st gen, practically on its deathbed

signal estuary
#

it could be worse

#

someone lost his switch

#

however that may happen

#

@dusty mountain anything to say for yourself

zinc rivet
#

Youd have to be truly idiotic to lose your switch i doubt anyone would be enough of a bozo to actually do so

#

And if someone did they should feel really ashamed about themself

signal estuary
#

nowai lost his switch

zinc rivet
#

unbelievable

#

goes to show some people are truly careless

dusty mountain
#

cause i didn't lose my switch

signal estuary
#

did you get it back :0000

dusty mountain
#

no lol

signal estuary
#

so then you did lose it

dusty mountain
#

im still trying to find it

#

nuh uh

signal estuary
#

yuh uh

dusty mountain
#

you can't prove it Thijmen

zinc rivet
#

alright if you didn't lose it than take a picture of it right now

dusty mountain
#

i would

#

but it's just that my switch is cooking something and i don't wanna bother it

signal estuary
#

dusty mountain
#

#

you're the liar

zinc rivet
#

How's Splatfest going for everyone? =P

dusty mountain
#

i haven't played a single 100x battle

#

nvm

#

got one the second i typed that

zinc rivet
#

One of my first matches was a 100×

#

And i won 😎

wooden hare
humble linden
#

That was sick ngl

wispy ivy
#

They call me tommy 2 100x wins 🥱

zinc rivet
#

wait theres other teams to play against

#

i never wouldve guessed

cyan compass
#

Have you only had mirror matches?

zinc rivet
#

yeah

#

its absurd

#

like 80% of matches are mirrored

#

and people just quit

#

so i spent more time in queue than playing the game

#

should have just picked zombie

#

at least i get to play the game

cyan compass
#

I picked ghost and most of my matches have been against either team. I've only had like, 2 or 3 mirror matches.

zinc rivet
#

rigged

#

also why do japanese people pick the wrong splatfest region only to lag all over the place and cause the match to self distruct

#

are they stupid

#

At least i had one 100x battle

signal estuary
#

Imagine having dutch splatoon

zinc rivet
#

i take great pride in not knowing what weapon people are talking about

signal estuary
#

Dutch splatoon is hilariously cringe

zinc rivet
#

anything dutch is cringe, it comes packaged with the language

cobalt lark
#

Cringe is deeply rooted in dutch

#

Playing just stick controls is hell.

#

And I'm stuck with it because I forgot my controller that I usually play with. Now I have to wait till Monday.

#

But luckily range blaster got my back.

Team ghost right here

#

We are losing horribly

wooden hare
#

Oh yeah, almost forgot but TEAM SKELETON W

languid garnet
#

I am very happy that ghost ended up winning

zinc rivet
#

zombie might as well not have been there lol

mellow flame
#

I'm so surprised ghost won

#

I won my first real splatfest

#

My first splat fest was the rock paper and scissors one

zinc rivet
#

L

#

ive won most

#

the ones my friends decided what team to pick are the only ones ive lost those being the chocolate and the pokemon one

fallow marten
#

if they won tri color they wouldve beated the other two teams in terms of points

zinc rivet
#

brother what are you talking about they didnt win a single thing

fallow marten
#

if they won tri color that wouldve been 15 points

#

oh nvm if that happened they wouldve been second

#

and skeletons wouldve won

#

the reason im saying it was close tho was cause ghost won the tri color points by like .09

signal estuary
#

It was actually by .35

fallow marten
#

Same thing

#

I couldve sworn it was way less

#

like a very small number

#

im not checking the app tho

#

ill do that later

signal estuary
#

I checked it

#

Because i fact check the facts

We need more updates on the side order

#

@signal estuary Heya, hope you're doing well! I have 2 questions about the upcoming Splat3 tournament:

  • Is the tournament going to be focused on Turf War or the Ranked Modes?
  • Do you need a high X Power to be accepted into the tournament? (Reason is I reached a peak of 2300XP last season but haven't touched it once this season because I hate it)
signal estuary
#

tournament will be a mix of turf war and ranked. mostly ranked tho because turf is very stinky
and no you dont need high x power. everyone can play in this event even if you only got splatoon yesterday

#

i want it to be as open for everyone

wooden hare
#

Oh, awesome!
One final question: Do you need to speak through VC, can you just listen, or is it not allowed at all?

signal estuary
#

its prefered if you vc since you're able to communicate with your team mates but its not a complete requirement

#

so if you only want to listen and not use your own voice thats allowed

wooden hare
#

Alright, thanks for letting me know!

signal estuary
#

no probs

fallow marten
#

dude aint no way kykia is still in here

#

oop nvm

#

hes fuckin gone

#

oh btw question about filling out the splatoon 3 tournament fourm

#

for the splatoon 3 name field, do you need the 4 number discriminator?

signal estuary
#

only 1 person has done it

rancid harness
#

Does the account level number have to be specific?

signal estuary
#

not really

#

but accurate is nicer

rancid harness
#

👍

fallow marten
#

can i put all 4

#

cause like

#

i do

signal estuary
#

you can

fallow marten
#

may i?

#

mr teacher tommy thijmen

#

wait your name has only 1 "i"???

signal estuary
#

yes

fallow marten
#

also btw just curious

#

how many ppl have signed up so far?

signal estuary
#

19

fallow marten
#

nice

tame summit
#

Also a few questions just in case

  • is there any general time when matches would happen? I kinda already had eggstra work plans with some friends of mine, and I only just found out about this tournament, which does sound kinda fun. So just to see if I'll be able to plan around it.
  • if I do sign up, about my rank. I think this is a bit of a unique situation (and weird), but while I'm C- rank in Splatoon 3, I did play in a team in splatoon 2, have an X rank, and still play Splatoon 1 A+ rank today. A bit of a weird mix of things, so is just saying that I'm C- enough? 😅
signal estuary
#

for the times you can check the events tab to see which times you can participate :) and remember you only have to play 5 matches
and the rank is not important, this is why we have the knockout rounds, that way we can see your skill

tame summit
#

Ohh yeah I didn't know it was in the events tab, I'm still trying to find my way through this server haha.
And also gotcha, just thought it may be needed to know for making teams.
Thanks so far!

signal estuary
#

its good to know so thanks :D

cyan compass
#

Zipcaster is way too fun. Just landed a solo wipeout with it. ^-^

tame summit
#

Omg nice

#

Don't think I've used it since before they buffed it to the point that jumping onto someone can already kill

cyan compass
#

It's a ton of fun dive bombing an opponent, especially if it's a low mobility weapon. XD

#

Might be able to post the clip if anyone wants to see it. =P

#

I don't really a meta, but I've just found that thing so fun to use for the past half year or so

zinc rivet
#

ive been using the same weapon for everything since launch

#

the meta can kiss my arse

dusty mountain
tame summit
#

I've just been trying to get every weapon to 2 stars freshness in turf since launch xD only my splattershot is heading towards 5 stars

#

(which is why I'm C- rank woohoo)

cyan compass
eternal umbra
# cyan compass Here's the clip I hit yesterday. ^-^

@cyan compass The fact that you didn't even use the ZR button and got the wipe on the enemy team says one of three things: 1. You are cracked with Zip, 2. The opponents are bad at the game, or 3. The mix of both. I'm placing my bet on #3!

#

Good clip btw

cyan compass
#

I was fighting S rank players. I'm just the one on my team to usually get stupid kills, a lot of kills or both. XD

#

Stamper really lets me think of how to approach my enemies if I want to, but also just have the chainsaw sword go brrr if I don't feel like using brain power. ^-^

#

Though I'll admit, I have been getting a lot better with Zipcaster ever since I started playing 2 weapons with it. =P

tame summit
#

Nicee

wooden hare
#

Because you are CONSTANTLY changing playstyles, no one weapon has a predetermined playstyle

#

Most notably, there is no such thing as JUST a slayer or JUST a skirmisher

#

I see so many people refer to Splattershot as just a slayer or Splatana Wiper as just a skirmisher, despite the fact they use both playstyles equally

#

That's all, rant over

#

I mean, it's not a big deal or anything, and I get why the question exists, I just don't like slayer and skirmisher being separate options since that implies some weapons only use one playstyle, which is just false

tame summit
#

I gotta admit that I had never even heard of the word skirmisher until I saw that list

#

I only normally hear people refer to slayers, support, and backliner (anker i guess)

zinc rivet
#

Yeah I just picked that cus the rest didn't fit

fallow marten
signal estuary
#

the main reason why i do it is so when i make random teams i dont put 4 e liter mains in the same team

#

im not gonna go exactly 1 of every class in a team

wooden hare
#

I know this is the most nitpicky of nitpicks imaginable, but it still annoys me lol

fallow marten
#

Im moreso anoyed at the overal use of it

#

Like not this case

#

But like people grouping weapons very specifically into 1 class

signal estuary
#

im not grouping the weapons into a specific class

fallow marten
#

Like "tetras is a scrimisher weapon" and "hydra is an anchlr weapon"

signal estuary
#

if there are 4 e liters and they all have different roles ill put them together

#

you watch me

fallow marten
fallow marten
signal estuary
#

i wouldnt say that but they can fit allot of roles

fallow marten
#

Just some weapons play some roles better

signal estuary
#

i cannot see an e liter as a slayer sorry

fallow marten
#

Just isnt what its good at doing

signal estuary
#

fair

fallow marten
#

Like a sploosh can play the role of an anchor, it just wouldnt get much value out of doing that

humble linden
wooden hare
#

VShot is NOT only a Slayer

#

The moment your teammate needs help in a fight, you have to play Skirmish

#

And if you don't, you're not playing optimally

fallow marten
#

you switch roles sooo many times per game

humble linden
#

There is a difference between those 2 playstyles.
Skirmishers dont engange as much as slayers.
They are supposed to help teammates more out than slayers

fallow marten
#

yes, the roles are very different

#

vshot can play both correct?

humble linden
fallow marten
#

can vshot play both

humble linden
#

Yeah it can

#

Depends on how you want to play vshot

fallow marten
#

what happens when the scrimisher goes down?

humble linden
#

But playing as skirmisher in this meta is outright stupid

fallow marten
#

lets say you have a tetras, ballpoint, vshot and a carbon

#

if the tetras goes down and was playing the role of the scrimisher at the time

#

if that happens, that means you loose a scrimisher

#

who plays that role after?

wooden hare
#

Just because Cooler makes this game way more aggressive doesn't mean you should never play Skirmisher

#

Hell, even in Splat1, you'd occasionally have to play Skirmish

fallow marten
wooden hare
#

You literally said playing Skirmisher in this meta is stupid

humble linden
#

Ofc you have to replace someone if they are dead but thats literally how the game is played outside of solo q

humble linden
fallow marten
#

yes, because playing 1 role in isolation is really bad for the team

#

like if you play a whole game while only playing the role skrimisher is bad

#

if more than one of your teamates go down and youre still trying to get an opening for your team, thats not going to work

humble linden
#

You still refer to the playstyle of Slayer as slayer

#

Even though it might not only be slayer

#

It just helps categorizing players

fallow marten
#

its very misleading for new players

humble linden
#

Yeah that might be true

zinc rivet

In 12,5 Hours the tourney wilk start

signal estuary
#

nope

toxic oracle
#

@signal estuary i got a question, how will it work? will we just sit in a lobby and get mixed into teams or what?

signal estuary
#

you join the vc (and if you dont want to you shoot me a quick message)
you will join my splatoon lobby and there you will play in random teams every single round until youve played 5 matches

#

after that you're free to leave or continue playing depending on the amount of people that are present

toxic oracle
#

ok now i need to get 5 matches in tomorow

#

thx

signal estuary
#

basically yea

toxic oracle
#

i NEED big man amiibo

@signal estuary am i in the tournament?

#

I submitted it in google docs

signal estuary
#

If you submitted it should be good

mint sorrel
#

Alr thanks

molten hawk
#

Hi anyone know what does this means?

fallow marten
#

what weapon do you play

molten hawk
#

A roller

fallow marten
#

youre probobly one of the first two then

molten hawk
#

Oh ok do u know what they mean tho?

#

Specifically skirmisher

toxic oracle
#

So slayer is a person who k1lls a lot

A skirmisher is... something i quess?

Supporter is just a suporting role. So this is something for tacticoolers and co.

An anchor is.... idk maybe that guy putting anchors everywhere and being good to jump to

toxic oracle
fallow marten
toxic oracle
molten hawk
#

I'm just gonna put support cos I can kinda distract an enemy team

fallow marten
#

so in the game of splatoon, there are community-made "roles" a person can play

#

those roles switch alot in games, but some people like to group weapons in with roles

#

those roles are
Skrimisher: the person in this role starts pushes for teamates, engages in fights, and is generally a distraction for the enemy team
Slayer: the person in this role tries to capitalize off the skrimisher's pushes and distractions, getting essentially free kills off the enemy team
Utility/support: this role is usually reserved for nuetral game. The person in this role's job is to get special ready as soon as possible for the next push. This is the least influential role
Anchor: the person in this role's job is to get as much value as possible while being safe. This is generally reserved for longer ranged weapons, but is usually played when most of the team goes down

#

the thing thijmen is concerned about when asking that question is being sure not to pair 2 or more of the same type of weapon on the same team

molten hawk
#

Ohh I get it now thx

fallow marten
#

this is his groupings of weapons for each role
Slayer: usually weapons that play a decent bit away from their opponents like vanilla splattershot, .52 gal, and splattershot pro
Skrimisher: weapons that play very aggro like rollers and splatanas
(slayer and skrimisher are very interchangable)
support: support is very a very vauge role group, but whenever people say they play support, they usually mean they play weapons that get special a whole lot or try to play arround their special, usually weapons like nzap, arrospray, and reflux
anchor: "backline" weapons like chargers and long range splatlings that play it safe

#

i dont like grouping weapons like this but so many people do it

mint sorrel
tame summit
#

Interesting read, I never knew the difference between slayer and skermisher. And a few weapons within those I probably saw as support

molten hawk
zinc rivet
#

Huh?

To avoid confusion

#

I decided to fill in the form afterall, and man I'm realising how hard the question of which main weapon is. After giving every weapon a try over the past year, it's so hard to pick only 4 favourites 😂

Screw it, here's a new sub weapon idea: The Splatterang

  • Designed like a boomerang
  • When thrown, it shoots forward with the same shot velocity and distance as Blaster, but a thinner paint trail
  • After the Splatterang reaches its effective range, it lingers and spins in place, spraying ink all around it (similar to a Sprinkler but way faster). On top of that, after 3/4ths of a second, the Splatterang will spin so fast that it will deal 30 damage to anyone who goes near it
  • Returns to the player after 2 seconds or when the R button is pressed again (the sub has to have lingered for 1/2 of a second before you're allowed to retract it)
  • Deals 50 damage on impact when thrown forward or retracted
  • Costs 65% of an ink tank

Splatoon 3 - [Events]

#

how do ik what timezone 12pm is? its 1:30pm for me (well, 1:29) and idk if itd my time or not

tame summit
#

Those times are automatically in your own timezone

#

It says 6 pm for me

signal estuary
#

it is indeed time zone adjusted for everyone

#

that way theres less chance for mistakes

tame summit
#

Yeah very useful

signal estuary
#

so if it says 12 pm then it is 12 pm in your own time zone

tame summit
#

It's a bit later in the day than I thought, and also in the middle of my usual dinner time. But I'll see what I can do (should know later tonight)

#

i wanted to do it earlier before but i realised the americans had to wake up early otherwise and i didnt want to do that to them :)

#

@signal estuary I won't be home within the 4 hour window I don't think.

you'll have to be there from start to finish if you want to play

if enough people complain ill change the times

#

for now ill put you on hold

wooden hare
#

I'm sorry to say, but I likely won't have time to play for 2 hours straight

#

Let alone any more

#

And if that's going to stay a necessity, then I don't think I'll be able to participate in the tournament at all

untold quail
wooden hare
#

Ohh, in that case maybe it'll be okay

untold quail
#

That depends on how many teams there ends up being and if Thijmen plans to do the next bracket of winners the same day

wooden hare
#

So it's 5-7 rounds, then you wait until 2 hours have passed to see if you qualify?

signal estuary
#

itll be around 60 minutes of playing constantly, then a 20 minute break and then another 40 minutes. those rounds will be swiss style so you'll be playing all the time

untold quail
#

more like the teams will each do their 5-7 rounds of 4v4 in different modes and winning team moves on to the next bracket

signal estuary
#

after that we go into brackets and you'll play a bit less but it depends on what team you're on for when your breaks are

wooden hare
signal estuary
#

what is the exact problem if i may ask

#

maybe i can find a work around

wooden hare
#

Simply put, I'm busy with IRL stuff

#

Like, I typically only play video games for 1 hour at a time

#

2 at most but even that's unlikely with how busy I can get, and if this stretches to 4 hours, I just can't play in the tournament

signal estuary
#

how long do the breaks inbetween those times have be?

wooden hare
#

Typically 2 hours or more

signal estuary
#

yea it wont work then

#

breaks wont be longer than 30 minutes basically

wooden hare
#

Damn

#

Well, I'll check to make sure if I have to cancel or not

#

But don't be surprised if I do

signal estuary
#

if you do let me know :)

#

it makes making the teams easier to know who are there and who arent

strong geode
#

@signal estuary I won't have the time unfortunately.

signal estuary
#

dissapointing but understandable

#

ill sign you out

zinc rivet
#

is it just whoever wins most matches wins the whole thing

signal estuary
#

its whoever beats all teams wins the whole thing

zinc rivet
#

proper bracket style

signal estuary
#

first some swiss style

#

then some bracket style

zinc rivet
#

right

#

at least i wont be out round one ReggieStare

When we gonna knoe the teams?

signal estuary
#

hopefully tomorrow but the latest is saturday

#

in case i get some kind of emergency inbetween

toxic oracle
#

Ok btw can come

signal estuary
#

nice 👍 good to know

toxic oracle
#

Sooo, will our skill level determine our teams in like a 1st place 2 place style or what?

signal estuary
#

idk what you mean with 1st place 2nd place style, but yes im basing the teams on skill level so all teams are balanced

#

that we dont have a team with 4 high skill competitive people and a team with only some casuals

zinc rivet
#

you play people who won as much as you did is the idea

toxic oracle
#

I mean 1st is the most skilled player and last the least skilled, the idea behind it is that you can balance it out in a kinda automatet way, if theres enough players

zinc rivet
#

thats a swiss style tourney

signal estuary
#

in that case yes

Aint no one picking handshake lmao

azure granite
#

don’t ping when replying

tame summit
#

?

azure granite
tame summit
#

That makes sense in that case

rancid harness
#

I think a problem with this theme is that there are just so many ways to greet people but you can only choose between 3 options so the one you use might not be there

tame summit
#

Oh yeah I've heard that a lot as well. But we can hardly make 8 teams for this x)

rancid harness
#

Splatoon 8 begs to differ

azure granite
#

They should do another vote for secret handshakes too, cause what if you’re close with a friend and you do a secret handshake, that’d be cool

#

I think also did hugs is that if you’re close with someone then yea, they may like hugs but when you initially meet someone, a hug wouldn’t be a thing you do

zinc rivet
signal estuary
tame summit
#

There you go, people who are interested in all teams at least. That's a good thing

zinc rivet
#

noone handshakes anymore

#

i feel like noone liked it so when we didnt have to do them during covid we all collectively decided to never do them again

signal estuary
#

i dont greet anyone with any of these 3 options

#

but if i had to choose it would be a handshake

dusty mountain
#

Nope

#

Youre gonna pick whatever Tommy’s gonna pick anyway

signal estuary
#

very true

RAAAAHHHHHHHHH

I got a bit of a problem in regard to when I'll join.
So I'll be away from Saturday 18th but I will be coming back to my home for the 19th, which is when the tournament will be on. The thing is though is that I can't guarantee that I'll be back home and ready to hop on to the tournament by 5:00PM or when the tournament starts.

I'm sorry about the inconvenience, but I think you might need to add a sub to the team to take over for me while I'm away until I can hop on to the game

zinc rivet
#

Only 14 people are interested

That will be a pretty short event lol

#

@dusty mountain So been playing salmon run with the golden weapons, I don’t like the splatana whiper in that, it’s too heavy and doesn’t deal enough damage in a distance and can’t be used enough times due to charging it

#

I like the bow tho, it’s a better re-enforced version of the bows they have

dusty mountain
#

Nah the Splatana is pretty cool, you can kill flyfishes if you aim correctly and jump instead of rushing

#

Doing the rush thingy

#

And you can also two shot (or one shot when you do the rush thing) the guys with the bombs on their heads

last vessel
#

but yeah it sucks

#

grizzco slosher already has pierce (and at a faster rate)
and grizzco stringer has enough damage to rival splatana, but also range

azure granite
#

Yea, I haven’t used those yet

#

I keep being in rounds where there’s 2 splatana

#

How’s that fair?

wispy ivy
#

And it's NOT up for debate

dusty mountain

RAAAAAH

and it’s the one with the coolest design

I don't think I ever got further than +5. Any idea how many hours you played?

i think i had +7 at the first fest when all my friends still played but now i barely hit ruler

tame summit
#

Dang, +7 is also still really impressive

zinc rivet
#

if you want to call it that

#

id call it a waste of time

tame summit
#

If you're not having fun then the time is wasted yeah

zinc rivet
#

mirror matches arent fun so

tame summit
#

They do indeed make things less fun

#

But the overall vibe, look, music, possibly playing with friends, gameplay itself of course. Those should be good reasons to enjoy playing splatfest as well :)

zinc rivet
#

meh

signal estuary
#

i wasnt even playing

zinc rivet
#

yeah that was apparent from how poorly you performed

signal estuary
#

WDYM

#

i can also just cancel the tournament meaning you get nothing

#

not that you would win otherwise :)

zinc rivet
#

if i dont win its because i was sabotaged

signal estuary
#

You misspelled *lack skill

zinc rivet
#

well i did consistently beat you so you must not have a bit of skill yourself

#

maybe thats why you arent participating yourself

# azure granite What’s splatoon sunday?

It is essentially a bi-weekly event where everyone would get in 1-2 splatoon 3 lobbies and play some matches! Often Thijmen would have a challenge for the week like only using specific weapons, etc.

But interest has been low so we are taking a break from both Splatoon 3 & MK8 events until further notice
