I took some time away from mario to try out Blackbelly, and I only got to play Tower Control on it but drat this map is still inkredible. Its similar in size to Art Academy but it has like 6 routes instead of 1, matches are so dynamic. I love it

For me toast would be on the cold side because I always forget I made it until 30 minutes after its done.

Welp, I decided to go with cold breakfast because I usually just eat fruits and some bread. I don't have time to cook stuff in the morning.

... why do people say fruits? Except for very specific instances, it's an uncountable noun.

Because in this case it's used to imply multiple types of fruit. It might refer to orange juice and banana slices in your cereal, for instance.

Exploration is ill-advised.
It's like how you use 'fish' to refer to multiple of the same fish, and 'fishes' to refer to a group including different kinds of fish, in an oddly relevant comparison.

I can now safely say that the regular Dynamo Roller is just trash. There's nothing the regular set has going for it. Ink Mines and Sting Ray do nothing to cover the short-comings of the Dynamo: the slow swing, heavy ink consumption, high risk usage, etc. Compare now to the Gold Dynamo Roller's set: Splat Bombs and Ink Armor. Evidently more appropriate tools for the weapon that gives the roller more maneuverability. The regular feels like it was made for someone comfortable in keeping a turf, but how are you supposed to do that when your team sucks? It's too reliant on your teammates. So if I had to choose a Dynamo Roller, I'd go with the Gold one.

You know what's fun? Having an enemy team with 3 stingrays on *Port Mackerel with ONE of them having a full stack of Special Power Up. Beams that occupy 25% of the map sweeping across the stage for most of the game with one of them lasting longer with no way to know if it will or not!

Yeah, Sting Ray is obviously busted right now. I don't think it should have been given the duration buff at all.

Yeah, the Splatoon 2 dev team has not done a really good job of balancing the game at all. Seems like the balancing decisions have been far more reactionary without much thought put into them compared to Splatoon 1. Ink Armor is just okay now, and Ink Jet is nearly useless. The Aerosprays got murdered for no reason last patch when it was the Baller itself that was busted. And the Splattershot is like the most widely used weapon in the game by a wide margin for a long time, but that thing has been given very inconsequential nerfs.

Sorry, I meant Port Mackerel.

It would be good to have every weapon to have some reason to exist. Right now it's the worst fighting weapon and a mediocer turfing weapon. It's basically on Par with the nozzle nose, but at least with the nozzle nose it has the potential to be really good if you somehow land everything and can compensate for awful netcode.

I thought the meta argument right now was that short range needs to get its rear end knocked out from underneath it.

The only time I ever didn't like the game was the baller buffs and everything else has been great IMO. The place it's at right now is pretty much perfect except maybe when people are running hella sting rays but that's kind of a gimmicky approach anyway.
