[@KallMeQul]

@@jpshy1130 I think the core of the tip still stays. Torpedo isn't lethal at full hp and reefslider is really predictable, not really what I'd call a ranged option. Keep your distance and you should be fine.

how to fight charger/eliter: play with cover, know what areas they can control the maps: no cover, eliter controls the entirety of mid from snipe

[@novinovi-]

As an eliter main, you can squiggle all over the place, or wait for us to focus on another player. Also we aren’t as perfect as we seem. We make mistakes, we have. Ink mines for a sub. Also when we are in scope mode you can toss a bomb at my feet and scare the crap out of me, that’s probably just me tho😅 Throwing a bomb does force a sniper to stop what they are doing tho, giving you time.

Coming as a Tri-Stringer user, while the bow is strong at taking on opponents, it is especially fragile if being pressured. And unlike Splat Charger, where you can deploy a Splat Bomb under your feet if they continue to chase you, you have Toxic Mist, which can slow down opponents as you make a getaway, but doesn’t really space out as well as a bomb.

[@kaikollas]

I've been practicing how to kill people in tri's usual mode and it helped me immensely (it's like playing with a worse version of a tri slosher)

[@zammich3649]

@@kaikollas I noticed that when you're REALLY close, a well-aimed jump shot (uncharged) can also deal a decent amount of damage if you hit with at least 2 of the 3 bolts. Won't OHKO but it can pull through against an injured opponent. Against a fast-moving opponent rushing my position, often I'll send out a horizontal single charge near my feet to cover several directions the enemy might choose to take, then once they settle into a direction, I perform a quick uncharged vertical shot to hopefully finish them off.

A tip against all weapons: Understand the matchup between your weapon and the other weapon. Knowing your matchup gives you the knowledge of what your next move will be. Sometimes you just rush headlong and die bc you don’t respect the other weapon or you were predictable doing it obliviously.

[@rubberchickensfoot8912]

I think a better tip against mini is that it has extremely slow bullets, so if you are a really mobile weapon you may be able to get suprisingly close to wait for it to run out of shots

[@Cisco_Kun]

Bro I think you forgot that mini has the fastest recharge time out of all splatlings

[@rubberchickensfoot8912]

@@Cisco_Kun i said slow bullets, as in they move slowly

[@shoopdahoop678]

These are all great tips, but they feel very biased. In every clip, the one taking advantage of the weakness is always a shooter class weapon, typically splattershot. This means that a lot of tips don't translate, specifically the clash blaster tip. Yes, it's kill time is low, but so is every splatling that isn't mini, and most of the chargers, so we can't really fight back. I get that's the point of those classes' weaknesses, and clash kind of counters them, but every situation is supposed to have counterplay, and it would be nice to hear tips for how you can deal with your classes' counter.

[@rfjb3537]

I never thought that an Aerospray would ever be a problem for me to counter but ever since becoming a dapples main I think I'm slowly developing a fear for those things The small range difference is enough for me to get shredded, even if it is a 5 shot kill. At least now I have torpedoes but still...

[@zammich3649]

Lol the squiffer tip is legit. We're always jumping around for the extra mobility or to get a slightly better angle. Although, oftentimes the strongest, most dangerous squiffers are the ones who don't jump that much. Makes their movements much harder to predict and they know when they NEED to mix up and get that extra mobility.

[@maikerunezumi]

Still be careful when going for a Hydra during it's charge period. Even a partial charge is enough to get you if you move predictably enough.

[@novinovi-]

Yes, hydra mains can also kill you through crab tank I belive, and as an eliter I can snipe crab tanks as well

[@piklan89]

absolutely. also, if youre flanking a backline in general, practice your aim. as a hydra i find myself winning a lot of 1v1s against flankers and its very depressing

[@novinovi-]

[@Alchemyyyyyy]

@@novinovi- atleast sub strafe so your faster

[@DaDoc540]

0:44 One caveat about Splash-o-matic's slightly shorter range is that its user can easily extend this range by jumping. Since the Splash-o-matic has no aim RNG (unlike the Splattershot or .52 Gal), they would be more reliable at hitting slightly further targets in this manner. One weakness that the Splash-o-matic has that should have been mentioned is that it has weak damage (28 HP, translates to 4-hit splat) and a nonlethal bomb (vs. N-ZAP, which has Suction Bombs). As a result, a Splash-o-matic user would have a difficult time against an opposing .52 Gal user, whose superior damage and range and Splash Wall make it a decent soft counter against Splash-o-matic. Smart Splash-o-matic users would generally avoid this matchup and attempt to do something else useful for their team, such as farm Crab Tank, which can shred through opponents' Splash Walls and Big Bubblers.

[@MeloniestNeon]

As a squelchers-leaning dualies player, I've already felt all of these things subconsciously, so its really gratifying to have them spelled out in a more easy to grasp way, both for knowing what to look for against dualies, and what to avoid doing myself. This is super useful stuff, can't wait to see what other tutorials you do!

[@glan9]

Some other nuances with splatlings for future viewers: - nautilus moves EXTREMELY slowly while charging, so in addition to Chara's point about them likely having to recharge, you take advantage of the fact that they can barely move while doing so and might not be able to do it during a fight - ballpoint has a very slow rate of fire in the long range mode which can make tracking shots difficult, so moving around a lot really helps - just in general, bombs are really good against splatlings, especially splat bombs and fizzy bombs. With slow movement speed and often playing positions that don't have full ink coverage it can be hard to escape. Well placed fizzies can force us to move into dangerous positions as well. - Torpedoes are actually a little less useful than you might think. Probably only hydra has major issues with them. Heavy has good partial charges and a fast charge time so it usually doesn't mind just firing off early to break the torp. BP and naut have mid-fire charge and can easily just shoot the torp and keep going. Certainly not as much of a problem for us as for chargers.

[@telekinetique]

5:39 this also applies to hydra, it's really easy to charge up enough to kill with it

What are your tips for determining - of the weapons in my weapon pool - what I should use for a given map/mode combo, outside of, "Reflect on what feels most comfortable?" I might feel comfortable with something now, but it could be that something else I play is better suited for what a map/mode asks of me, and I just don't realize it. "Consider what holes a team composition needs filled," is something I am also mindful of, too; though, I feel like the root question at hand is part of identifying what holes there are.

ALSO: To add onto your tip with Undercover, if you can't 2v1 it, bomb the shield, no sane Undercover is gonna press forward without a Shield, also even if you are gonna 2v1, don't come from the same direction, if Undercover gets a kill it's shield goes back to full HP so it's entirely possible for it to barely eek out a win in that 2v1 if you both just stand in front of it instead of flanking.

super honorable for a reupload to include splatlings! reposting my anti-splat roller advice from a main, ink well around objectives and pathways!! it's uncommon to use curling bombs unless we really need it, so even slightly blocking off areas forces us to either throw a bomb or verticle flick to get close. that, or you might just find someone sharking with some lucky coverage! ✨️

[@LOVEUGYARU]

as a splatling main i forgot about us too

[@DarkKnightofHeaven]

A personal tip for heavy splat I've found is that a quarter a circle charge is enough bullets to kill (It's 6 I believe) so if your ever stuck up close even if your only starting your charge you can pull out some wins so always have your finger charging your weapon. This pairs up with Pro's tip that you don't need a full charge to get good range so don't treat it like a hydra. You don't need the full charge you do need to be charging though. If your caught just starting your charge your dead.

[@KwehShiro]

As a bloblobber main, the example was kinda meh, people being on rails like that are easy target. People hiding in height or edges are also very easy target. Sniper hates me. You can get your bubbles high and one shot. I see a lot of people approach me by the front or from heights (down or up) but this will put you at a disadvantage. Easier to tell your next move and its easier to rain bubbles unexpectedly. close range like inkbrush are my weakness. The closer you get the harder it becomes to avoid the bubbles which can one shot if you get hit by all of them, but its also harder to secure myself, also out of ink moment.

[@thequagiestsire]

I love how both the video for and this one against every weapon never said anything on the lines of “just use a better weapon” or “it’s an undercover, you can literally do anything and win”, as Splatoon is a game where any person and any weapon can win if you let it.

One tip I would give with the reed lux is that you need to keep in mind that it is a one shot kill with charged shots so the best way to deal with it to get close and paint it’s feet using something like burst bombs because than is faced with either the option of painting using it regular shots or try to one shot you with the full charged shot and if the charged shot misses than you can reliably take it down

[@NeverEverWatchThis]

Cjr: wave is so useful to get assists. Counter it with bombs AeroRg: use sprinkler to see what areas are safe to paint. Aim higher in case it uses a sprinkler as a shield. Ttek: against short range weapons, use your bomb as an opening in fights. It can get them into your effective range. Against longer range weapons, rush closed to them and if it doesn’t go well bomb. Splat is a better tool in fights then suck so use it. Flank it so it can’t react as quickly with its bomb and main weapon. F pro: Big tower niche kit, but the suck is very ink hungry. Don’t rely on them too much since pro is already ink hungry. You can wait until they run out of ink or shark, take a fight with them after a booyah bomb, and they will have some down time since they can’t booyah to help them out. CarbonD: burst bomb. USE IT! Burst bomb. RUN FROM IT! Stupid short range so burst helps you poke. So when against it, stay far away, or flank it from a distance since snarking doesn’t help much against most rollers. BucketD: Zip is so good for this weapon since it can play a bit of a sniper on walls and shoot downward with a slight bit of fall off. So if your in trouble, zip up high and dump dump dump dump dump. A bucket with good aim can hit angel shooter very far away, and track you down for an easy shark kill. If you get hit prepare to fight it in a couple of seconds. Zimi: the bubbler limits your mobility like a splash wall so use mist to limit theirs as well. zimi is very fast and mist make your very slow. Keep in mind that when fighting it in mists since your main way of hitting is gonna be slowly walking out practicing shooting while in mist. LunaN: 2 Fizzy hits combos well with an indirect stay mid range, shake it once, and destroy! Do not ignore Luna’s on the other side of the map. If they see it’s not safe and there’s no advantaisee fights to pick, then the will yet fizzies and ultra stamp. Flank them and get right in their blind spot while strafing sideways. BrushN: Sneak into the back and use stamp to let them no where you are. That will put focus on you and not objectiver. If they end up ignoring you, throw the stamp and them that you are a threat. don’t let them get behind you. Shark and kill them when they try to go into the back lines. That’s every kit I think! I did this based on my experience at S+12 and what works.
