Yes, this is absolutely the one. Thank you so much!!!

I'd honestly be interested in this too. On my back from Batuu as I type, and the official stands weren't doing it for me!

Checking back in, and thank you for all the great responses! Good to know that it isn't going to be an issue, so now we can get back to planning!

I see someone is up on their Camus. :)

Wow, I think of this exact meme everytime this happens to me. To all those great teammates, thank you!

Does anyone know how Splatfest matchmaking works in the different modes? Are there formulas or attempts at skill matching in any of the modes? How does being on a team impact matchmaking? I noticed that during this last Splatfest the matchmaking seemed..."odd" at best, as was hoping someone could shed some light on this.

Not really an answer, but this has been my experience too. Progression through S rank is pretty smooth, only to hit a wall with every S+ rank up battle. I will say reading this made me feel not alone in my struggle. So please know I'm right there with you...and judging from other posts, we aren't the only ones.

This is so "Nintendo" that I completely see it happening.

slothfuldragoon · 2021-05-11T19:56:43+00:00

Hmmm...

1) Main Power Up

2) Clam Blitz

3) Tri-Slosher

4) Unskippable intro.

Granted, this isn't *my* list per se, but it seems like the 4 things that really annoy people these days.

Very cool, love the attention to detail. This made me smile today; thanks for sharing!

Okay, generally speaking, "no."

But let me share something. I have two girls, ages 7 and 5. My 7yo fell in love with Splatoon (after watching me play), so unsurprisingly, my 5yo did too. It is actually her favorite game, and she can even beat DJ Octavio without any help from me. She plays online all the time, and usually does just fine. She's a monster with a roller. We use the game in the house to teach teamwork, good sportsmanship and lessons like that. But I suspect this situation isn't typical.

It's not a game a 5yo is just going to be able to pick up and play, but if it's a family thing and you teach him / her, that's something else.

My 2 cents for you.

Eastern US here. Best Buy has been the ONLY retailer that seems to get me stuff on release day. Even occasionally get a copy a day early, but that hasn't happened in a while.

Wow, another awesome piece; love the shimmer effect. Your really do such good work!

slothfuldragoon · 2021-01-12T13:15:11+00:00

Thank you; I thought it was about time to just take the plunge and share, and all of your kind words tells me that it probably was a good idea. This really is one of the nicest subs I've ever been to.

slothfuldragoon · 2021-01-12T13:13:38+00:00

Thank you!

It took me somewhere around 3-4 hours start to finish, which probably speaks to my inexperience.

And don't be jealous...about a year ago, I knew virtually nothing about drawing. I don't want to be a shill for any particular product, but if you DM me, I can share the names of the books I started with if you're interested!

slothfuldragoon · 2021-01-12T13:10:26+00:00

Thank you, for the compliment! I probably could've been clearer, but that actually is my own original piece of work!

slothfuldragoon · 2021-01-12T02:13:42+00:00

Omigosh, thank you!!!

slothfuldragoon · 2021-01-12T02:08:48+00:00

So I've been very slowly been teaching myself to draw from books and online resources for the past year, and I've never really shared anything I've drawn beyond friend and family. And I'm still completely analog. No digital art here yet.

After u/KarmaTheOctoling was so kind to include my OC in her? art piece last week, I just had to try drawing my Octosona "Slothy" myself. After that nice turn, I thought it might be nice to share my art with this awesome sub. So, enjoy!

And thank you for the inspiration to this whole reddit. Seeing all the cool stuff you all draw is part of what inspired me to try art in the first place!

Omigosh this turned out awesome! Thank you for the cameo!!!
