Callie is my religion.

Like the concept, it's like in my animes where they have sports day

>throwing clams into a nutsack
something seems off

DUDE

WOOMY

is this better user

Still looking?

Anyone got tips for using the heavy splatling in different modes?

>Play turf war
>Just try to perch up high near center and deny other team access

>Rainmaker
>Usually staying in shooting distance of rainmaker. Mostly breaks shields and inks long paths for when we push

>Splat Zone
>Pretty much same as turf war. Find a few good spots to rotate in between and focus on denying access to zones

>Tower Control
>Shoot at guy on tower until he maybe hopefully dies
>Also wait for someone to push the tower and it doesn't happen so go try to push the tower myself and immediately die

In Clam Blitz I guess it's gonna be goalkeeper time.

clam blitz is ranked?

not all weapons are for all modes, high ambush maps/tight spaces either require you to camp like a charger or you die a lot.

yes. turf is the only regular forever

we can be C- together

Which maps would you consider the high ambush maps? With splatling I usually do best in walleye warehouse so I see your point.

i dunno because im spending shit tons of money on a phone game and talking out my ass on stuff other people said before but put my own editing on it to claim its mine

Yes I like the hat

Port, blackbelly

king flip bois gotta stick together, we squadding, ride till we die

anyone for some SR?

3/4, starting now

im in, 1990-4677-6592

>never played rank
>clam blitz is in rank
>mfw

s-should I even try?

add first so I don't can the lobby adding you

Do ranked, right now

You'll be the first generation of clam-first players.

yes

Flyfish were a mistake

hmm, didnt think about namefagging my FC, good idea

added

Are there actually people on /ink/ who don't play ranked? How do you not get tired of only TW and SR?

I can think of one who joined a meme lobby and didn’t have any rank. Was a while ago though.

Does anyone actually use Ink Recovery over ISM and ISS? I have so many chunks and tickets but absolutely no desire to use them.

accepted, you can join now

Ink recovery's effect is so fucking miniscule it barely makes a difference.

I still want a pool noodle version of an inkbrush.

>Ink recovery's effect is so fucking miniscule
in squidform

it's pretty good if you are on uninkable ground a lot - for whatever reason

Anyone else just feel turf war is fucked in spla2n?
it used to be pretty balanced but it just feels heavily tipped to shooter weapons (specifically aerospray farmers) compared to splatoon 1. i dont know whether its just map design, where a lot of the new maps are just designed to be circled around by aerosprayers or what

Hip-hop girl stereotype that everyone underestimated but then shows her skills and everyone goes "Daaaymn".

Control lanes better, quit trying to just turf and or kill.

in splatoon 1 if there was a good charger you had no chance. got fixed

Aerospray is bad even in turf for two months straight already. Git good if you still can't beat them.

Double Bonus and I'm out. GG

Alright
3/4

Because shooters got decreased ink consumption and now shoot for forever

mfw im a profreshional now

I hit both bonuses so I'm done, gg cday, just, and yikes

ggs

Straight woomies!
Straight spaghettis!
Woomies and spaghettis coming together and coming together!

Disgusting.

thanks, im genuinely curious on why i dont enjoy it as much as i did in the previous game
>git gud
not the problem, theres no real objectives to turf war in my opinion, map control doesnt feel as fun to me and it just doesnt seem as important to win (depending on the stage)

>tfw no qt yebby bf

why are shotafags so annoying?

tfw

I approve of this

because anybody that's gay or a pedo and doesnt want to admit it is annoying

One day there’ll be a straight pairing that sticks. One day.

Octolings stealing yebbies from woomies!

Hope it involves my woomy but like you said one day it'll happen

Post your woomy

Woomies and spaghettis making SQUIBS!

>first league rotation with clam blitz has moray towers as one of the maps
WHHHHHHHYYYY

Do Pearl and Marina sing a different song in the square every Splatfest? Or is it always Color Pulse?

It has always been the same song so far.

Nothing's stopping us from making it. I mean, it'll be a pair and have nothing else to back it up, but it'll be there.

>towers won top 3 in all regions for final splatfest

Not much of a mystery why it's featured heavily in Splatoon 2

What goes with the ugly Grizzco boots?

Juice Parka and a ballcap, so you look like someone who works on a boat.

Doesn't change the fact that I dislike the map.

Then don't play it.

You go and play other game (wow this was unexpected)

Lifejacket or fishing vest for a fisherman look

I'm a shitter.

One set I'm planning just waiting for Annie

I play other games

>-20 points because understaffed shitter team instantly got demolished by glowflies
I see splatoonrank system is as terrible as ever

Nah, randos are usually horrible with glowflies anyway. Even when there's a roller on the team they don't have a fucking clue on what to do.

Looks like something a homeless loonie would wear.

...

How many run speeds do I want when running heavy splatling?

What gave it away

There’s always Biker.

I've been using 0 recently, but normally two is good.
Trendy spamming stingray!
Trendy getting ignored by everyone always!

Do you think anyone outside of here when knows what the fuck we mean by squib

As much as you want.

whats your fc trendy

I played with some randoms last night and they had squib in their name. it could be someone from here though

Gunfags will give you funny looks that's for sure

I don't know if I the energy to play through another splatfest. This one is going to be a slog.

Squib is a pretty common term anywhere in the splat community. Not just here.

go back to squibbit

Anyone who reads books. Which is apparently whole 25% of us.

your post is a squib

>spent five hours fixing car
>want to play some squids before the big clam slam
>gyro
>wrists ache like a motherfucker
>sticks
>play even worse than before
I hope it stops hurting before the update. I really want to play.

>Rainmaker
>Someone disconnects
>Roller just runs around inking everything aka turk wars
>3rd literally runs backward toward our base/doesn't even try to advance

THE OTHER TEAM WAS SHIT TOO, I WAS SOLOING THEM ALL SO ALL YOU HAD TO DO WAS WALK FORWARD

Post characters that remind you of yourself.
For me it’s Marie. Intelligent, nihilistic and with a wicked sense of humor.

the great mighty poo because he stinks

>3 games to hit 600p
>7 games to hit 1200p
This is a very nice rotation. Shame the randoms let me down at the end.

>S+ in all ranked modes
>lvl 36
>still haven't played the solo mode
Am I the only one?

Is anyone playing salmon run? I haven't got either of my bonuses yet.

What's the point of Flingza rollers?
