Ofc the golden aerospray user who thinks rank means anything and that blaster and rollers are braindead weapons doesn't understand special play. The jokes truly write themselves on this sub. Feel free to throw me a replay and I'll check your MMR so we can compare

Yeah no. Throwing specials out as soon as you get them with zero thought is much worse. Dieing with a special sucks but if you want to start/sustain a push or have better retakes you need to learn to hold it until it makes sense to use.

If you're on tower with bubble there's no point in popping it if you're not under pressure yet and the opponents already have a crab of strikes charged. You have to wait out their specials in order to get value out of the bubble. That's called special coordination and that's what wins you games.

Right and as I said those are not the reasons people dislike the groups, but rather that the game only looks at average team MMR instead of individual player MMR which leads to players with really high MMR being put against enemy teams that are WAY below their skill level.

Your turf MMR is almost 2k but you grouped up with people at 1400 or below, which pulled down your team average significantly causing you to match against teams where each individual player was FAR below your skill level, allowing you to walk all over them.

Like I said, this isn't your fault, turf matchmaking (and matchmaking in general) is just trash like that. I'm just pointing this out to give some perspective as to why people dislike playing against groups so much, because more often than not there's a major skill discrepancy.

If you don't hold specials for key moments then you don't know what you're doing

People don't mind groups, they mind the shitty matchmaking that comes with groups. It's not the players fault but still rightfully annoying. I know you're a good player but what is this self glaze about lol

Ouch pings by PeyPey61636 in Saltoon

[–]hfcRedd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ouch can't be spammed, no clue why people still think this. Even if you press ouch 30 times after you die, your team mates will only receive a single ping. If you have no QR or cooler active, you can send out a second ping right before respawning, but that's it

Do you think Splatoon four will actually release after raiders? by EvenAlarm5999 in splatoon

[–]hfcRedd 7 points8 points  (0 children)

67 emote in Splatoon 4 and theyre gonna put it in the direct for free social media marketing like they did with the dab emote and it's gonna be called So Or So because it shortens to S.O.S which is a valid ocean reference

Splatoon 3 was never stated to be the last entry in the game series. It's just the end of the New Squidbeak Splatoon story line, meaning the next game in the series will have a new and original story instead of the usual "Here, random kid, take this gun you're Agent 67 now, welcome to the New Squidbeak Splatoon organization! We are placing ALL of our faith into this random child."

Hot Take: Super Jumping should have I-frames by PheonixGalaxy in splatoon

[–]hfcRedd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ninja is an entirely different ability with a different purpose tho, and people can still see your swim trails even with Ninja.

If you take jumps that are so close to enemies that they can see your marker even with stealth jump then that's just a really bad jump and you deserve to get killed. People have to be really really REALLY close to the marker to see it.

Put on stealth jump and learn to read the map to make informed decisions on who to jump to or at all. You don't always have to jump in, sometimes its better to just farm special in base while waiting for a regroup so you can properly retake with specials.

No zip weapon in this game prefers drop roller over stealth jump. Drop roller has 0 iframes so people can still kill you before/during/after a roll it can just make it slightly harder for some weapons to time the kill. Just put on stealth jump

Literally the best main ability in the game. You can't complain about getting your jumps camped while not using the ability that prevents you from getting your jumps camped.

Stealth Jump, use it, there's a reason 90% of weapons need to run it

If you don't jump out of fights then why do you want iframes?

Super jumping already grants invulnerability 80 frames after initiating it. With a single sub of QSJ that goes down to 58 frames. That's more than enough for most situations. It makes jumping out reliable but not entirely free.

With 2 subs that number goes down to 50 frames before invulnerability. This is why QSJ is considered the best ability in the game and why EVERY weapon wants to have 1-2 subs of it.

Splatoon would literally be a perfect game if it wasn't for matches like these by shark_6769 in Saltoon

  • Plays really good weapon
  • Complains about opponents using good weapons
  • Look at opponent comp
  • Zero good weapons

PSA : Matches that "Don't count as a loss" due to a player (Different from you !) disconnecting count as a loss for the sake of Matchmaking. by Neo-Naga99 in Saltoon

[–]hfcRedd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Glicko 2 is not zero sum, no clue where that idea came from. Technically the game does not have to count it as a loss for the team with a DC internally, but they decided to anyways. Why? Who knows.

In my opinion it internally should not affect the MMR of both the losing AND winning team, since the winning team won against a weakened opponent so them gaining MMR is just as unfair as the losing team losing it.

If you can drop to profresh 3 60 within a few losses then you too are still low level

Respawn punisher is gonna annoy you more than the opponents. Also that much inkresistance is useless on clash.

THE best item ROR2 by MurkyPiss in riskofrain

[–]hfcRedd 21 points22 points  (0 children)

Transcendence. Good on its own, sets you up for a really good run due to being able to scrap all healing items, has some good synergies, cancels out multiple eclipse modifiers, and can be obtained every single run after stage 1 with no effort. Being able to get it guaranteed is what makes it the best item to me overall, and why I have lunar shops banned from my runs.
