STOP MOVING AROUND WHEN I'M TRYING TO REVIVE YOU! HOLY SHIT DO I HAVE TO HOLD EVERYONE'S HAND IN THIS FUCKING GAME

...

>She's not wearing any pants right now
>She REALLY loves that Splatling

For the mothership stages, we need 2 people killin the boxes, one person being the egg runner.

Also if you have the stinger. You can start shooting the mothership the second Grizz warns you, to save us time.

>I would rather (and have) suck off everyone whos ever eaten at crusty seans and gargle their cum then eat that icky mayo
Why do people like marina again?

hot

i basically never see the nozzlenose in turf war

is it bad?

Help!
Help!
Help!
Help!
Help!
Help!

If you didnt pick mayo you're a diabecuck

>never touched rollers/brushes at all in splat1
>mfw pick up octobrush after 30 hours of maining nzap and aerospray and go undefeated for 2 hours averaging 8-10 kills and 900-1000 turf inked per match

You mother fuckers were right, this thing is busted as fuck and I love it

I say Aerospray not because it's a good weapon. It's shit. The reason I think Aerospray is a crutch because it's really good in TURF WARS. It's a crutch in Turf Wars, but when it's taken into ranked the crutch is kicked out from under Aeroshitters' hands and they fucking suck. THAT'S what makes it a crutch.

>No updated news
>Same OP image for the 3rd time

Holy fuck if my teams weren't shit i'd be dominating every match with the dualie squelcher, WHY THE FUCK IS THE DUALIE SQUELCHER SO FUCKING GOOD.

Alright, so I've figured it out. You need TWO ink saver mains on the jet squelcher. It's just too ink inefficient for only one. But once you have two, you rape. NOBODY can deal with the range, and unlike the splatling you can actually go up and get aggressive.

Someone should make a mayo cake in Pearl's image next weekend

Draw user please

>he plays turf war

And I got demoted that first game, sorry about that.

2 more wins and we'll be right on track.

>tfw only good with bucket

Best weapon for babbies who can't aim?

whenever i use it i always get killed in a 1v1 even though i think i'm landing shots
do you need to be especially sneaky or are you literally just running into peoples faces and mashing ZR

also are you aiming up slightly or straight on

Try rapid.

I meant what is the best GUN for people who can't aim,

I want to get better

>B-
>good

but yeah, buckets are great for poor aimers. Same with (vanilla) rollers.

DUALIE SQUELCHERS ARE THE NEW CRUTCH KING

how so

I'd honestly say the blaster for a GUN. Considering its splash damage, it's not a bad weapon if you aren't necessarily good at aiming. Although once you DO get good, it becomes even better with potential one-hit kills.

>queue into Rainmaker for the first time
>wander off away from team trying to hunt enemies
>get sniped
>respawn and bunch up with team as we make a push
>enemies force us back and get control
>game devolves into a stalemate
>win with 54 vs their 51

This is like a completely different game.

Can any drawfag do mine? Posted it some time ago.

Not him but a mix of both

Ambushing from behind and above usually works, I run swim speed up and go whichever direction the other team is neglecting

>keep getting connection errors
I just want to grind ability chunks!

SR is absolutely impossible with randoms

the problem with being "sneaky" and ambushing in this game is the fact that you have to be in ink to ambush. If the enemy is attacking and you flank around, you HAVE to expose your position just to get to them because you have to ink the ground to swim in it. Someone is bound to see your approach

Shit sorry about botching that SR with the splatling and the steel heads. I kept getting slapped by Chum when I tried to aim at their heads.

sadly it's all I can do since im not a profreshional

They're good

I ran it with Ninja squid. It's a great skill to use with octobrush to sneak up on people with, but even rushing head first I still won about 80% of 1v1. From the few hours I played it, I realized rapid blasters pretty much shut brushes down, so I don't engage those players head on.

Please draw my womby (on the left).

In B rank at least most people are too focused on the objective to catch me half the time

I'm sure it will get harder

thanks for letting me know how to get my prizes! I was really confused

Wanna buddy up? Not a profreshional, but I haven't had too much trouble with SR tonight.

6644-2767-8878

How do I get good with the splatling? It's fun to use but I'm only really good with the N-Zap

Salmon Run loadout RNG is silly. Profeshional's should be allowed to choose what weapon class they want their weapon picked from

I NEED to violate Callie!

Haven't won a single profeshional matchyet. Who's idea was it to not include at least two normal guns? Who's idea was it to include THE INK BRUSH, NOT EVEN THE OCTO BUT THE FUCKING INK BRUSH.

me on the left

do you guys play in TV mode or handheld mode

Yeah, inkbrush is so bad. The only thing it's good for is luring grillers

whats the best weapon for powerlevelling

I'm only Overachiever if that's cool

TV all the time. It's good to actually god damn see your enemies.

Any Profreshional homies up for some SR?

Fuck salmon run tonight. I'll try at normal people hours and maybe people who can use this shit weapon lineup can help.

>looking up at the sky
nice one baka.
tv, so I can record gameplay and actually see more than just my squids butt.
Not complaining, but I need to see other butts for reasons.

What rank? I'll play with you user.

Handheld, since wearing glasses is uncomfortable for more than an hour

TV because . I played story mode in handheld and it was pretty comfy though.

TV
actually I use my monitor but it's still better than the tiny screen on the switch.

TV. Handheld is actually impossible.

tv so I can use my pro controller.

I'm fucking PONDERING OKAY

Fine with me, just gotta finish my current match.

TV mostly but handheld when someone wants to watch TV

WHAT THE FUCK WERE THEY THINKING WITH THIS SALMON RUN?

THE WEAPONS ARE GARBAGE

>uh oh

I find it also helps in making a beeline to getting eggs left around and really fucking good at running away when the quota is met, there's seconds on the clock, and your whole team is fucking dead

Sounds like you aren't a good enough Grizzco(tm) employee.

WE SURVIVED 3 HIGH TIDES IN A ROW.

USA! USA! USA!

Also made it back to profish, sorry about that

C-continue?

Alright send, you can go ahead and open up a lobby

How useful is thermal ink?

I dont think I'm getting any other wins today, also tons of motherships and folks who dont know how to play those rounds

Not very since you usually kill whoever you're shooting almost every time

More please?

>got a heavy splatling during a high tide mothership stage
>shooting down the little guys left and right, we're drowning in eggs
>motherfucking teammates aren't picking the eggs up
i'm gonna report them to head office for being such terrible employees. it's like they want the business to die.

Give me a few minutes, starting to pour outside.

...

>mfw i just realized you can't roller over enemies anymore

Wait, really? I could've sworn I've been killed by getting rolled over, was this just recently changed?

no problem

I just realized the life preserver on your back is your ink tank

If I get one more Salmon Run where some chucklefuck quits within SECONDS of the game actually starting, I'm going to fucking kill myself. Three games in a row where some stupid cunt quit immediately. Next update I hope they change it so that if someone disconnects, you don't lose your ranking.

That would be a nice change.

I mean, unless I'm just retarded, I just bounce off everyone.

Everything's fine but that blaster. The real issue is having a full match actually stay FULL.

Well, nevermind me playing for the rest of the night. Just lost electric. Sorry user.

Oh god. The squelcher dualies are actually perfect.

I'm a bit confused, what can you do with the regular eggs you get from Salmon Run? Do they work in single player or are they actual currency for buying stuff?

>inkbrush
>good

Profreshional. But now i'm laying in bed and my switch is across the room.

some rollers kill if you run over someone

others bounce you back and you have to roll over them again to kill them

They're not bad, just very situational.

>blaster
All round good support gun, good damage on direct hits. Airbursting will kill large groups of small mobs with no problem and can also help deal with bosses as well. A good weapon to have on griller levels to deal with the small fry with one burst.

>splatling
Designated boss killer, will kill most bosses within one full charge. Swim, charge, kill. Also good for making ink lanes so that eggs can be delivered faster.

>brush
Crowd control, re-inking turf. Not good against bosses, but good for keeping mobs off of your splatling/blaster's back while they're doing their magic. Will also help re-inking turf to create lanes.

>roller
Similar to the brush, but can also clear a path of small mobs on the way to the basket. Can also help with bosses, but not to be relied on to kill bosses.

Are you playing carbon roller and forgot?

Are you using carbon? I know I've rolled over a few guys so far

I'll take a brush over a charger any day. Those are worthless if you get surrounded.

>Marina will never drool all over your "Octoslapper QX-2"

Why go on
