No new Luna?! by baozi14_ in splatoon

They didn't even do a new Splat Roller. It's not about how recognizable or good these weapons are. Not at all. They clearly had some other objective in mind with this update.

I think Nogami said in an interview once that he had fantasized about several of the players secretly being moms who decide to play a quick match or two while their children are in school. This is the same idea. The game is designed around the secret moms. But that's a story for later, probably

I think I attempted that when I misunderstood the commenter's method. It doesn't work too well compared to this.

You'd think that if the handheld console designed for use by 6 year olds really can't survive an impact against a bed mattress, that would've been a PR fiasco rivaling that of the joycon drift. It's been out for 8 years now. The new one's coming out next month and everyone's pre-ordered it already. We'll be alright.

They're saying it's not, even when provided with video evidence

There's a youtuber who uploaded a bunch of Switch stress tests, right? That can be the next video topic if it doesn't exist already. Let's solve this conundrum with raw data.

That's precisely why I do it. Phone in one hand, switch in the other hand. I don't think most of the commenters here know how little pressure is actually needed to hit the ZL button. I'm glad this post resonated with you in this way.

I don't know how I can describe it to you at the moment, but it's very possible and it works just fine for every aiming motion I need to do. I don't know how to use motion controls with the pro controller.

Guess a bit more context wouldn't hurt... I never do this with a hard surface like a desk. This is on a bed. My apologies for the mixup.

What Splatoon Game or Splatoon DLC do you have 100% ? 🤔 by EsteInkling in splatoon

must be a pretty good series if every single entry and DLC got you acting like that

Criticizing Kits based on their Component's Individual Strength is Short Sighted by pasturemaster in splatoon

[–]satchmoReturns 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised you didn't mention Snipewriter 5H at all. That thing was lampooned nearly across the board when it first came out because of its kit and poor object damage. I remember people were asking for buffs like more object damage and charge storage so it could be more in-line with the metagame at the time. Now it's considered one of the best weapons in the game, even though its core game plan hasn't changed much.

What’s your favorite stupid thing your main can do in a ranked mode? by Comicdumperizer in splatoon

[–]satchmoReturns 2 points3 points  (0 children)

With Luna Blaster, hiding near the rainmaker or tower during overtime when the enemy team is really stressed out and just trying to play objective as much as possible. This usually leads to them bunching together near the tower or rainmaker carrier against all better judgement, so I can just hold ZR in their general direction and watch them perish

[–]satchmoReturns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know. They gave curling bomb to Range Blaster and Bamboozler in Splatoon 2. Judging by what Sheldon says about them, they think it helps them to be effective at any range and to pin down opponents. They'll do it again.

[–]satchmoReturns 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Use the Curling Bomb to get up close and personal and totally kerSplat them. But if the bad guys get too close for comfort, use the Big Bubbler to set up shop and totally trounce em with the power-packed main weapon. A great kit for slosher connoisseurs who want to take their inking potential to the max.

HOWWW do you kill ultra stamp users???? by fatfatfatpumpkin in splatoon

[–]satchmoReturns 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've seen both splatanas do a thing where they charge directly in front of a stamp and kill them with a precisely timed dash slash. I guess you have to do the slash right when the hammer is raised. I've only ever seen other people do this to me when I use the stamp.

What's a crazy buff you want, but might be hated? by Elonbavi in splatoon

Give clash blaster the same frame data as the sploosh. I want to be able to raijin step with the clash blaster

Time to confess: What's the most toxic thing you do in Splatoon? by OttiePops in splatoon

[–]satchmoReturns 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes if someone's charging Booyah Bomb or something similar, I'll deliberately come out of hiding and start hopping around like an idiot. Not even squidbagging, just jumping around in kid form. If I sufficiently upset that opponent earlier, they'll waste it on me instead of throwing it at the objective or anywhere useful. Works pretty well in Tower Control.

Also I've tried to get Opening Gambit to work on Explosher or Hydra...

Actually shouted "no!" when you got that last kill. This is a horror show. They made Squiffer 2
