>At the end of the month on January 30th, at 10 AM, the "Inkzooka" will be displayed at Tokaigi. The tornado shaped ink is fired in a straight line, and it can be used to both paint and attack, making for a powerful weapon. It's in the sets of the Aerospray MG, the Carbon Roller, among others.

im just gonna keep it as an inbetween, so that way at least ive got something decent to play with. better than the random bullshit i had before.

>>128539784

I can do this. Give me a few days to empty my order queue, if you're willing to wait that is.

>>128541197

You'd waste 400k on that? You're better off with the brand influence (Swim Speed).

I get triggered when people roll offbrands on Krak-On gear. Can't beat Swim Speed.

>>128541361
My Red Hi Tops have Quick Respawn which is pretty good.

>>128541361
It seems that everybody that exalts Swim Speed gets easily triggered.

Whenever someone says Ninja Squid is bad I wonder if they've ever actually used it or if they're just listening to /ink/ meme about shit.

>>128542321
i can tell you im probably the only person who runs ink saver sub as a main slot. i just like how i can throw 4 burst bombs without emptying my tank, can get at least 3 shots in too.

>>128542642

I tried Ninja Squid without any Swim Speed once, just for curiosity's sake.

It was fucking torture. I'm used to having Swim Speed, and this was the complete opposite. It felt like I'd been hit with a permanent Disruptor.

The sluggish movement, the low top speed, yuck. They nerfed Ninja Squid into the ground. Sure, you can just stack Swim Speeds, but 2 mains and a bunch of subs barely normalizes the effect. That's pretty much your entire loadout used on invisible swimming and normal swim speed.

It's a niche ability that's useful sometimes, but you have to give up so much for it.

It'd be like if Ink Resistance halved your Run Speed. Any time you're not on enemy ink, you'd waddle around at SSPro speeds. Would it be worth it?

>>128535257
sloshing machine has a steep learning curve and is really unwieldy

>>128543384
>but 2 mains and a bunch of subs barely normalizes the effect.
Pretty sure you only need 2/3 subs.

>>128542707
I use Ink Sub too for Seekers. It's good to throw one to force your opponent to dodge while you have a few more shots for them left in reserve.

>>128533234
so it's a 3d print?

>>128543384
When you swim right around a Splash Wall and beat the shit out of the Gal on the other side, you'll know its merit.
It will never be a meta ability but it will always be rewarding.

>>128544073
That isn't that bad, everyone seems to have quad swim speed clips or shoes. So it's only 1 piece of clothing.

Plus with only 3 subs it goes up to 96%, and the difference between it and 100% is barely noticeable, at least to me.

>>128543626

In actuality if you measure Marie's tentacles within her bun, they're about normal length, so they're by no means short.
Meanwhile Callie's are up to 1.5 times her whole body height, so naturally Marie's are laughed at as being small by comparison, when really they're just average.

then set that shit as high as possible to remove jagged edges, it doesnt matter if the program slows down because last i checked you were trying to take pictures and thats just a still image.

a little texture filtering won't hurt for the backgrounds but im fairly certain it wont do much for callie and marie.

>>128556342
Wow, that is a hell of a difference. It seems to work fine at x8 despite recommending the lower settings, and the tentacles are so damn shiny now I can see the world reflected in them.

you ARE good enough to maintain your rank, right? it wasnt all just a fluke and youre holding on to something youre not, RIGHT?

Until you wonder to yourself why a Rank is even that important and not just something to pointlessly stress about

just play the fucking game, wherever you get put is where you belong. people waste shittons of time trying to hold on to their precious A/S that they start making stupid plays and drop themselves lower. just play as if it were a squad and get over yourself if you lose your rank.
if you are a good enough player you'll get it back, and if not you get put where you belong.

is the mini splatling any good? I really like the way it looks and feels but I'm not sure if the wind-up speed to damage-output/range is good? I think I like it, but the past few times I've used it, I've been getting creamed.
The win animation is also adorable...

>>128560378
I hate them a lot, both to use and fight against.
But the Zink Mini Splatling is regarded as one of the strongest weapons in the game, so if you must.

>>128560378
If you pick a mini up it's probably better to use the Zink one, it's just so damn strong.

>>128560494
>>128560707
do you mean it's actual damage output, or it has better alts, cause I thought they'd be the same, damage wise. but if I'm wrong...

>>128560216
i mean youre allowed to do what you want but im telling ya, the faster you stop looking at that little letter and number at the end of each match, the sooner you'll have fun in ranked.

used to loathe every ranked game i lost, now i just forget about it and try to figure out what i did wrong. as soon as i did this i went from S 10 to S 90 in the span of an afternoon

>>128560854
Yeah, the Zink's Secondary is a Disruptor, which is basically a Flashbang that slows your target, and the Special is a Bubbler, which you should know as the force field.
Put those two together and you are one tough bastard to fight.
Range and damage wise it's pretty good. You just need to get used to its picky fire-and-release method.

>>128561014
I never had fun in Ranked; I find this game is considerably more enjoyable to sit back and paint the earth while shooting anybody in your way than bust your ass over an objective. And in a game that's this fun and colorful and Nintendo-like, I'll always go with the fun option.

My only goal now is to get 999,999 points on my favorite weapon. Forget Ranks.

>>128561087
cool, thanks for the advice. been using the zap 89 before I got into the splatling, so I'm more used to inkstrike, but it sounds like those alts are pretty good. I'll pick up the zink, then, considering I've been pretty useless with the inkzooka.

Personally I find N-Zaps much more respectable than Splatlings, but good luck with those.

For the record you can stack Run Speed and the Zaps just fly around. Fastest weapon in the game TWN.

good to know, haven't abandoned the n-zap, but I've been having fun with the mini splatling, so it's nice to mix things up. haven't had a chance to really dig into splatoon (lvl 18), but now I have some more time on my hands, I'm excited to get back into it.

on a side note, is future the superior choice? I have an undying love for dinosaurs, but the future sounds so much more exciting.

>>128563269
From what we've seen, the popular teams are usually at a disadvantage, and from surface value Future seems to have more fans.
Really choose whichever you like; the payoff for choosing the winner is pretty insignificant that early in the game. It's only 6 more snails over the 18 you would've had otherwise.

But that is turf wars objective. I like that turf war places the least emphasis on the winner being the one who can best splat the opponent. It makes it feel like it has more depth. Like it is more than just a shooter.

Honestly, splatting opponents in TW is just as important as in any other mode. If you're dead, then you can't ink the ground, plain and simple. Not to mention you leave behind a puddle of enemy ink, which helps the opposing team in TW more than in any other mode.

It's true you can win a TW match without the most splats, but then again I've had ranked matches where everyone on out team had a negative k/d going on, but we still won. gotta play the objective.

but yeah, I do like TW's concept quite a bit as well. also the only mode where last ditch effort is worth using at all

>>128570281

Slosher is my main and machine is my secondary. There's no such thing as too much damage up when dealing with lag and the defence up meta. This way I can do the required hits and get away somewhat sure that people will either actually die, be weakened enough they won't continue chasing or shoot me from beyond the grave

>>128570763
well what i said was mostly in response to the sloshing machine, didnt read till after that you mained the slosher.
with the damage up, it seemed like you were going for the rapid blaster method of making the direct hit as close to 99.9 damage as possible, but frankly i dunno why people do that unless theyve got a sub or something else that also benefits from damage up.

>>128570691

Swim speed isn't something I care about considering my team mates seem to either go for splats or tunnel vision the objective with no thought for map control and movement.

As for ink management I find I play worse when I have too much inksaver abilities. This is the sweet spot when I have just enough. The only other ability I use is QR and that's usually 1 main. 2 at most

How to get gud at ranked splat zone?
I've been doing okay when my team has some brains because once we control the center I know to try to kill enemies and keep them away, but when one person on my team is a shitter and wants to play ranked turf war and we lose the center, I'm REALLY bad at attacking into an area fortified by 4 inklings.

tl:dr how to attack into unfavorable terrain and gain the upper hand without dying

>>128571874
use the special or wait for your teammates

>>128571874

Use Dynamo

>>128571964
I do try to attack when one or two of them are pushing as well, but I don't know what to do when they just paint randomly without care for being instantly splatted

I feel like I would do better in B rank than my C rank because every other match I have to deal with some twit either painting irrelevant parts of the map or doing the old stare at sky / feet back at spawn

>>128572106
>c rank
just use a charger in that case. C and B rank shitters don't know how to deal with them.

Is aerospray alright in ranked if you're trying to support your team? I'm not the best with the chargers and if I'm using a roller I die to everything because I can't ranged counter attack.

I seem successful with it in the low ranks by helping spray walls for tactical movement and I seem to be able to kill everything rather quickly provided they don't see me first

>>128571748
Thanks, I'll send a request but I'll never be able to tell once you have it and are ready for me to clone it.

>>128571874
depends on the map
if its something with alternate routes and your teammates are barreling down the middle, run around and shoot the other team in the back.
if its pretty closed or theyre holding you from going anywhere, get your special. in SZ probably the best idea is to run suction bomb rush, kraken or inkzooka just to be able to come back from a tough game, and the enemy wont have any problems giving you free special points if you shoot the ground near them. just trade turf until youve got enough to stage a rebellion.

>>128572198

Neither do S ranks. IK don't know how often I've had to stop whatever I was doing to hunt down Snipers. It's a good thing Sloshers are decent counters to them

I'm literally throwing myself in the enemies chokepoint, going fucking terminator every single fucking match with a normal fucking roller while being on the verge of death at every second hoping to god that my teammates are smart enough to paint the shit then help camp the enemy out.

4 slot just means the main slot and all of the subs are the same ability
same ability stuff is most commonly gotten from brands that arent influenced, like KOG or cuttlegear, and are otherwise gotten as "offbrands", which are much less common and are usually obtained through hours of rolling.

i only go for looks
all of those were natural triples except for obv the hat

>>128573960
gotta use it as a cheap invincibility or as a means of killing unsuspecting fucks.
unless the guy who you popped it for is a retard and decides to sit and shoot, ignore him. either find other people to drill, use your paint trail to help with the objective (mainly rainmaker), or get the fuck out of there.
if youre chasing someone and the timer is running low, remember you can always super jump out. its usually quick enough so that you wont die while launching, but if youre nervous you can always launch while youre still in kraken mode.

That's the jobby.

I prefer different abilities at different times depending on mode, map and team mates. If I'm playing TC and RM the QR heavy outfit comes out. For Splat Zones or with good team mates I have only one QR and the rest is ink and damage up. With damn good team mates it's all strength up. For Turf War it's nothing but ink savers and no DU

>>128576539
being fresh isnt picking shit out of a dark closet because you cant make up your mind
having your own established style and sticking to it is fresh in itself.

tfw i did the very same thing last night. I don't think I've ever had a more torturous experience. Ninja Squid by itself is practically pointless since you can slow tilt at almost the same speed. The ability only pays with a fuckload of Swim Speed Ups. But yeah the trade-off is huge and if you dont find the perks of swimming undetected are worth that trade-off, then Ninja Squid is definitely a waste.

first of all the genre is called ASSFAGGOTS
second why would knowing your strengths and weaknesses invalidate your ability to have fun? if youre using all kinds or random shit game in and game out, youre changing all kinds or variables that could affect the decisions you make.

for example, if you use a swim speed loadout then move on to a quick respawn one, chances are you might still have the swim speed mindset and make a stupid decision based on that. at least when you use the same gear every time, you know what situations you can handle and which you cant. its simple.
>>128578376

you learn a few things about SPEED with a brush

>>128581170
to be completely honest splatoon's skill cap is relatively low. you get the gist of the game after single player, and the only thing to gain after that is some subtle stuff, some decision making, and aiming.
its not like if youre unfresh youll magically be better at the game or have a deeper understanding of it, youll just have slightly better stats in one or two areas. people run all damage up because they want to kill faster. it doesnt improve their skill.

again, you dont really "git gud". all of it is decision making, deciding whether youre going to throw your lifeless husk at the tower or try to find a way in through the back. you could be god's gift to splatoon, but if you dont know what to do in a tight spot youre gonna end up as cannon fodder like every other carried S player.
and its not good to totally disregard abilities, you should suit them to how you play. if you throw a lot of bombs, get ink saver sub. if youve got a problem with echolocator, get cold blooded. it doesnt matter what the meta is or isnt, you can basically get away with anything as long as it works with what you aim to do.

That's what I said until I played that game.

okay, im now absolutely convinced people just throw games they dont think they can win

guy on the other team's running up with the rainmaker to the volcano, and the blaster on our team is sitting in spawn spamming booyah. i kill the guy with some burst bombs and blaster reluctantly walks out and inks some turf.
PLAY THE GAME

>losing horribly
>make a safe trail for the Rainmaker
>hit "C'mon"
>whole team assembles on me and escorts the RM like we're playing a CS1.6 VIP map

Holy FUCK that was

You obviously haven't felt the thrill yet

>>128589921
>20+ kills with either
you gotta be in turf war or B to have that happen

Do you have proof of what I wear?
Do you have screencaps of my performance?
Have you seen me play?
Have you seen what weapons I use?
I regularly use 2 weapons for squads or solo with clothes that give the abilities that I want while looking fresh.

>>128589921
that's basically what I've been doing, but only in low ranks and tw. Maybe it gets more fun when my opponents aren't so braindead

I got my S solo. I was stuck in A- and A. I went to A+ in a squad and from there I went to S. So far, I have deranked to A+ once but I quickly went back to S.

>>128580037
I got carried by Tim. Now I'm somehow S+ even though I still have the skill of an A+

>entire enemy team disconnects
>1 from mine disconnects
NINTENDOOOOOOOO

>>128591089
That's because everybody is carried and everybody is a shitter and the idea that different Ranks offer different experiences is a myth.

regional matchmaking when?

>>128590593
no, just a educated guess is all
another educated guess would be that youre also the kind of person who waits 2 hours to think of a witty response

Nah mate that's a retarded assumption while making an ass out of yourself. Go ahead and jack off to the thought that you believe yourself to be mentally superior while I was actually at work dumbass.

There you go again with your stupid assumptions. I was there for the whole day and my coworker went to the restroom. I needed to wait for him to come back for safety regulations. I used that time to call you a retard and I'll use my time again to say that you're birth was a mistake.

Headcanon time!
Given Inklings are liquid based it would make sense for their bodies to absorb some water through moisture in the air or vapor or any other source of the element. And since water evidently weakens their internal structure, it would make sense for their bodies to have some system to secrete said water.
So in some manner, yes, Inklings probably would sweat. Same policy applies for tears.
