Even splatoon 1 had a relatively active playerbase in the months before splat2 partly because of how restrictive the online is so it funnels all the players into limited modes

What do you think of the "tournament data" tier list floating around? Discord, but listed off GFaqs.

These scores are generated using the formula:

50 x (W^2) / (A x M)

Where W = number of times the weapon has been used on a winning team, A = number of times the weapon has appeared on a team, M = total number of recorded matches.

So basically, weapons that are used frequently in tournaments and win a lot get a high score.

Well it really depends on your style. Any set can potentially be "the one". Your set sounds like the kind you'd use if you hinge your playstyle solely around Special use, since how you are now, you'd gain it quick and death would barely be a problem for your climb to the next Special.

>>386734552
Well, it was pulled from ranked, where TW almost never happens. So all the jerkoff weapons that suck ass at coverage are naturally going to be at the top.

Aerosprays basically turn you into a free kill outside of TW, since you just cannot defend yourself. Same deal with rollers. With rollers, even in Turd War, they're too slow, consume ink too quickly, are too easy to spot, shoot, kill and even slow down.

Sniper rifles aren't really something that should be in Splatoon, exactly. They have a very specific function in firing down lanes and routes in FPSs, which sort of happens on Splatoon maps, but not that often.

And yet here we are with the same cancerous faggots who outright refuse to use anything else. At least in Splatoon they're not much of a threat and you can usually shit all over them. I'm sure there are some next level sweaties out there who can still make life a living hell, but most of the time I would rank charger users as just slightly above aerosprays in terms of ranked usefulness.

Funny thing is they're not. Frankly a good dualie player has to work harder than most because of the ink management concerning not only shooting but dodging in the thick of battle. Wait until you see someone bad use the dualies. The difference is clear.

If you use anything other than splashdown for a special in ranked then remove yourselves from the game

The artist of this image once made a poll to see what his audience was interested in, only to give them the option for them to make up either entries. The leading entry was "male inkling butt", with the second being about Peach and the other about new characters and for some reason, this got him mad and he deleted the link to the poll and the post showcasing the results.

>>386735864

Splashdown is the best ult in the game, though. Everything else is either nearly useless or turn you into a KILL ME target.

I see a lot of people complain about Splashdown having no invincibility, but I'm absolutely certain that it does during the time you're coming down to a bit after landing. I've constantly fired a rapid blaster straight in the center of them and they just do not register a hit until a certain point afterwards.

>>386737752
It most certainly does have invincibility. You can hear the shots you land make a different sound as if they had Ink Armor.

>>386737752
You can be killed during its windup when you're jumping up and at the peak of the jump. Pretty easily, too. When you're coming down, you're invincible.

>>386737776
Well to be fair, it suffers from the same issue the first game had.
>Severe lack of content

>Have other weapons programmed into the game, but they are going to release them slowly to try to get people to keep playing

>>386738338
>how dare they add content post launch!

>>386738421
They should make it like Maws, where throwing a grenade in its moth is the orthodox way to kill it, but you can just keep shooting to achieve the same result. Or have the bucket attack the bombs you throw somehow, right now it misses 9 out of 10 times.

Is aerospray the number one shitter weapon in the game?

>>386736637
Tenta Missiles, Bomb Rushes, Ink Storm, and Inkjet are okay.
Tenta Missles can force people to move, and an untargeted opponent might get surprised by a missile if a targeted opponent moves by them. You just need to find a relatively safe spot to use it from.
Bomb Rush lets you throw a field of hazard. Also, at very least it's an instant ink recharge and it lets you keep using your weapon.
Ink Storm can do decent extra damage and it's fast to use.
Inkjet has range, one shots if you can aim, can be cancelled early by flying off a ledge, and lets you go squid if needed.

Sting Ray and Baller are garbage though.
Tenta Missiles is straight up better than the Sting Ray considering how low the damage with it is, how difficult it can be to aim thanks to no reticle, and how long you're stuck with a weapons that's more useless than an Aerospray for combat at anything beyond very long range.
As for the Baller, Ink Armor is better even though it's a (four) 30 HP shields vs a ~300 HP shield. The Baller gives you no access to ranged attacks besides its explosion which takes way too long to set up and can be cancelled by being popped. No one will run away from the Baller because 300 HP is shit with such a large hitbox, it can be pushed back anyway, the person with it can't shoot back, and he's s probably fucked when it pops especially if more than on guy is shooting at it. You also can't hide in your ink while using the Baller which makes it bad for sneak attacks, and Splashdown would still be better for that. It doesn't even work as a panic button thanks to the wind up.

>>386738669
Absolutely, especially since the Splattershot Junior has practically the same ink spread but also has accuracy to get kills.

>>386737846

also, you can kill them using stingray special, it's really useful when 2-3 flyfish are grouped together in one spot (or even for one flyfish that is hard to reach)

>>386738717
sting ray is good on rainmaker, but only when your team has all died. I've gotten a few team kills with it while the enemy team is all shooting at the bubble

>>386739035
I'd blame that more on the enemy just being stupid, but I've had some use out of it in tower control. I think Tenta Missiles or Bomb Rush would get the same general job done though.

>>386738998
>pull out Sting Ray to fuck up some Flyfish
>Maws shows up right next to me
Every fucking time.

>>386739157
but stingray is usually only on long range weapons. I play a lot of charger and can easily see if we will lose a fight so I can retreat and use the stingray to turn it around again, and the enemy never seem to expect it. Meanwhile most weapons that has tenta missiles or any of the other "viable" specials for that matter wil usually be the first to die in a losing fight anyway

>>386739342
Now imagine if you had Tenta Missiles on your charger and you fire missiles at all four enemies in less time than it would take for the Sting Ray to run out.

>>386739035
>Enemy has Rainmaker

>>386739342
If you're so far away from the fight that your team is losing (which means they're already losing some of their 3 people to be able to tell that), you're in a bad position in the first place or they're overpushing. You would accomplish more faster with just sticking with the charger, instead of taking the time to run away to spray a stingray, which is easy as all fuck to dodge, especially when they have less enemies to deal with already.

>>386739623
Is there even any long range weapon with tenta missiles? I can only think of dual squelchers but you're not supposed to snipe with them.

also stingray penetrates, a lot of the time when the enemy team has won a fight they'd rather shoot at the bubble immediately rather than heal up so they're very suspectible to the stingray. position myself right and I kill all of them near instantly

I think stingray is misunderstood, and many people haven't even bothered to learn how to use it since it's easier to just pick up a rapid blaster or trislosher that have spammy specials or fire and forget tenta missile weapons

I'm not FAR away, I'm in typical sniper positions, I see 2-3 teammates die then I swim away to a place where I can safely use stingray and also let my teammates super jump to me. I win most of my fights in rainmaker doing this. Even if I don't get a kill I can still hit the rainmaker bubble to delay the enemy team.

It's usage is limited in the other mods though and I rarely bother.
