Because I switch games. Or my wife plays something.
I get only asian players, but I'm in New Zealand haha
Fair point. It's short though so I'm cool with it.

I made that Fresh ranking. Now I'm probably gonna go on a losing streak.

Damn. That feel when our sniper sucks, and theirs gets first place.

What is the best color flag you can get on your weapons for their winning streaks? The completionist in me needs to know. I've seen green for 5.0+ and red for 10.0+.
If there's one thing that I like about Salmon Run that the rest of the game doesn't quite do, it's forcing players to try weapons they don't normally play with and getting proficient with them
I agree! I was so bad about the chargers, the last time I played one (outside of single-player Amiibo) was the first week of the first Splatoon. I was like immediately, "I hate this so much, I am not playing them ever." After watching a bunch of streams of it, and now being forced to play it in Salmon Run, it's like, why was I so grumpy about playing these weapons? They're totally fine.
Blaster is a little rough in this mode, though. It falls in this middle range of being too slow to handle the rapid-stuff and not range-y enough to deal with others.

My win/loss ratio is quite pathetic. Probably 50/50.

Pure white on 15.0+, could be highest, not sure.

I'll admit. I'm awful with the charger in salmon run, well period. I need to git guud with the motion controls to get its full potential.

Playing this has really reminded me how much it sucks that Nintendo hasn't gotten their **** together when it comes to playing with friends. You csn't grab a friend and THEN jump into regular matches. One of you has to play and then the other has to sit back and wait until the match is over to be included. And you're not always guaranteed to be on the same team. And the Nintendo app is so horrible it was better just to call each other.

I'm doing great in ranked now.
Fuck aiming. I'm just going to run your ass over.

Kind of insane you can't just message your friends with simple preset messages like in Mario Kart you can do after matches, that would be so good.
Could just easily ask if people are up for teaming up and the preset messages could be localized for each language so it would overcome even language barriers.
Paintbrush works well on Port Mackarel. Easy to infiltrate enemy territory quickly and then you can paint all kinds of stuff.
Really doesn't work on more vertical stages though.
Beat story mode. Kind of agree that
wasn't as epic as the first time around, but it was mechanically sounder, less frustrating than the Killer Wail spam that was DJ Octavio I.
Now i just need to go back and get like 10 more sunken scrolls.

Meanwhile, I'm splatting rollers left and right because they insist on trying to run me over instead of aiming the flick
The flick is the only reason rollers are viable at a high level btw

I do agree it's kind of discouraging to see your team mates flailing aimlessly.
My last 50 matches is 30/20 which I'm quite happy with, been trying out different weapons alot.
Heavy Splatling is quite fun in certain maps where you can get the Sprinkler in good spots.
Once you are at high level you can add slots to your favorite clothing to make them better.
And yes, higher level lets you buy better gear at shops.
She sells 3 star gear from time to time.

This rotation thing kinda sucks. I was so close to getting B- in splatzones and then it gets taken away from me... so sad.
Try having several friends wanting to play together... It's guaranteed that one or two will be unable to enter.
The difficulty in playing with friends is honestly the worst thing about this otherwise great game. That, and limited online Salmon Run.

Got B- on the last match before the switch! The jet squelcher is so good on splatzones. No one can touch you.

Gah, didn't play for 2 days and now everybody is level 18 and destroying me. Kinda discouraging me from playing since it's not matching me up with similarly leveled people.
Hmm, this morning she had a leather jacket with 4 slots and a hat with 3. Or maybe that was last night? I can't remember.
People need to hurry up! The game's been out 5 days already
I was just frustrated. I had a C rank meter almost full, and was in a Splat Zone match I was doing ok and the meter was under 10. But then suddenly everyone but me on my team got disconnected. I lost. I did get the 'we see you were missing players blah blah blah", but I played terribly next match and lost. Then my meter broke and sent me back to square one. Then I lost 2 more. I was not happy. Just thinking about it makes me not happy.
Back to Turf War until this clears up or until Salmon's Run reopens
She's selling one 3-star piece now, and it's that shirt and tie combo with ink resistance up. Everything else is 1-star, and a shirt to boot.
I have to believe that there's just a bunch more shirts in the game than anything else. Otherwise there'd be at least a bit of parity, right?
Picked this up. I felt it in the testfire too, but this game just feels a lot more fun to play than the first one? The Switch itself is part of that, but the multiplayer just seems a lot better. Can't articulate how or why.
Forcing myself to use motion controls to improve. It's great when playing portable but still feels weird docked.

I have not been able to complete a match all day due to connection errors. I have no idea what's going on. It's always in the last minute.
Is anyone else experiencing this?

Yesterday I believe she was selling a 3-star helmet together with a 3-star leather jacket sort of, and the other day she sells a 3-star boots. It takes a bit of frequently checking SplatNet to catch those stuff.

Wtf? I had 2 matches in a row where I only had 3 teammates and my meter still busted and I went down a rank. What's the point of that message if you still get penalized when someone on your team quits?

I was wondering this as well. Is it solely the discord?
It's really situations like that that make you realize the leveling system in Splatoon is pretty stupid.
Just bought a shirt with 4 slots
This is a cool one.

Had no issues the first few days but been getting them on and off all night. Super infuriating especially earlier when it dropped me a rank in Salmon Run and then later on this evening while I was playing Ranked so just had to call it quits for the night. Probably had a total of 5 or 6 matches like that today.
The Discord channel is the easiest way, but there is also a Google spreadsheet with Switch IDs.
I don't like the Roller in this game, it's vertical line of fire whilst jumping is so off putting. I know you can still jump and fire horizontally if you fire before jumping but it's just too inconvenient. Switched to the Dualies, it's the only weapon I can get win streaks with😓 not used to motion controls yet, not sure if I should go back to analog.
After the first Splatfest, the 1-star shirts will get better when the Sea Snails start rolling in. Then you can start adding slots and stuff to the lower-leveled stuff.
The 3-star gear is a bit of pain to level up, since they take so many experience points. Thinking with the new ability-scrubbing ability, it might be faster to just keep leveling up 1-star gear when the slots are unlocked.
But yeah, for now, it's kinda slim pickings until they give you the 3-slot shirts you want.

Does anyone think the rolling shouldn't be exclusive to the Dualies? It's an amazing mechanic to quickly get out of sticky situations and I don't want to play with any other weapon cuz of it.

Finally able to play in docked mode w/ the pro controller and this game looks great on the big screen. Also, playing the game w/ the pro controller is fantastic.
One thing that i'm realizing is that spawning at your base may be a better idea rather than jumping to another team mate spot. Seeing enemy's color paint way to close to the spawn point.

Then dualies will have nothing over splattershots. It's the only thing going for them.
Had the same thing happen to me. Really hoping that once I get out of C land the leveling system won't piss me off so much. Only so much fighting I can do when the team only has three people on it and the other team is actually working.
Also hoping that it helps weed out some of the people that are using charge weapons and like to sit on an edge away from the action. Don't know what the range is, but doubt it is the full map, at least get in the path of the tower or have the ability to hit a choke point.
Yeah, while respawning it is a good idea to look at the map, but I rarely actually super jump, usually by the time you get there your team is gone and you are in a four on one in enemy ink.
And in Turf War, there are multiple paths that you can splat, so the first two or three times I die and don't even bother looking, will fill in more of the map near the base.
