While you still have the chance, make sure you take some time and hang out in the square and zoom in on the stage and watch Pearl and Marina go through thier routine. I know everyone loves to hate on Pearl but watching her dance around like an idiot while rapping makes me kinda like her.

I hope they make the final splatfest Blood vs Cum, as a little nod to the imps

also hope they have more splatfest themes to come that make sense with an ink color, I had a great time pretending it was actual ketchup and mayo

I know it would gently caress up the whole point of turf war but I wanted so badly for the colors to blend together and make 1000 island dressing

the Pokemon Red vs Blue and Spongebob vs Patrick splatfests from the first game must have been amazing

I love the rotating music and the night time versions of all the stages. Wasn't a huge of Shifty Station but it's a cool idea to have a splatfest exclusive map to mess around on. Can't wait to see who won, but also glad to be able to play ranked again

I betrayed everyone and went ketchup because I like marina better. I would ask forgiveness, but I know i will receive none.

Pearl has grown on me a lot since I got the game. Everyone should give her a chance.

I wear the blue hoodie with subsaver which I think looks nice, but I'm also one of those weirdos who tries to make the character look like I would in real life.

The zapper is pretty cool for the team shield special
Ink Armor is probably the best all-around special since it works on your whole team and is more than enough to put you over the hump in a firefight. Gotta have smart teammates who know how to go aggressive as soon as they see it pop though.

Important MLG strats from the Stats Goons

Dr. Fetus posted:

Oh wait, here are more specific stats on Last Ditch Effort. It got buffed considerably from Splatoon 1. They're rough estimates, though.

Main weapon: 25% less ink (can use for 33% longer)
Sub weapon: 15-17% less ink (can use for 17-20% longer)
Ink recovery rate: ~33-40% faster (can recover ink in ~70-75% of the time)

Also, these stack fully with both Ink Saver abilities and Ink Recovery up. They're separate multipliers applied on top, meaning that they don't suffer from diminishing returns. Have fun.

I've got LDE in my loadout now, its situational but that's a huge bonus.

As someone who's stacking Ink Recovery/MainSaver/SubSaver, it's great to hear that it doesn't effect your current chunks.
