I played against putz12 in Splatoon 3 Rainmaker (and won!)

Disclaimer: putz wasn't streaming at the time so no live reaction from him. He actually hadn't streamed since the time I played with him in Salmon Run.

For those unaware, putz12 is a 42-year-old Twitch streamer who is most well known for playing and raging at the Splatoon series. There are hundreds of compilations of his many rage moments across all three Splatoon games on KZbin. He uses profanity all of the time, with slurs occasionally included as well.

[@dam4mogus]

Legends say that if you listen really closely you can hear his rage

[@killedbycrit]

You don’t have to listen closely if you're in a 5 mile radius of him lmao

[@MaddyLaddy]

After I heard him rage the first time I can't unhear it

[@Alexs23743]

I'm sure Putz's reaction was something like "(WHAM WHAM WHAM WHAM WHAM WHAM WHAM WHAM WHAM WHAM!!!) (No signal) ***I...HATE THIS GAME!!!*** "

[@Man-q5r]

If putz hates this game so much. Then is he still playing it and throwing temper tantrums like a toddler?

[@MawltenTheLucario]

of course putz used that title combo

[@erbnie]

bro plays ranked like a turf war

[@NuiiCashy]

More turf = more points; special More turf = escape route (in case of too low ink)

[@theadhduck]

@@NuiiCashy But he should be focused on the objective, supporting his teammates and splatting others. And specials don't help the battle's outcome enough to be a focus of the game. I mean, maybe you could play this way in A rank or something, but S and X are serious battles.

[@NuiiCashy]

@@theadhduck sometimes they really do help out and make a major difference on the outcome.

[@theadhduck]

@@NuiiCashy We just have different playstyles, that's all. Except pros agree with me

[@popsicIes]

holy shit he's running something other than swim speed

[@fantarat464]

Holy shit, he still exists? By now, anyone would think his head burst by now due to his rage 💀

[@RemLasher77]

Or suffer a stroke for that matter given his history being a competitive eater.

[@toxicdragon323]

Pity you can't hear the opponent's voice chat like on Call of Duty. It would've been funny hearing him rage. I wonder how many people putz reported after the game since he love to report people for the smallest of reasons.

[@Speedofdark339]

At around 8:57, we did see him wipe out the whole enemy team. Maybe he ain't as crap as I thought at pvp.

[@PhantomOfficial07]

@@Speedofdark339 It could also be someone pretending to be putz

[@gryena]

i thought putz didn't cared for that "eye candy bullshit"

[@VGCeilingFan]

people pressured him into changing his splashtag.

[@RemLasher77]

Putz12 should just go back to being a competitive eater because that’s the only thing he’s good at. I swear one of these days that guy is going to suffer from a rage-induced stroke while playing Splatoon 3.

[@srfreeman4287]

shoutouts to the guy named zutomayo, theyre so real for that

Oh hey, I’m pretty sure I played with you in Open recently!! Your name sounded super familiar, and then when I randomly got recommended one of your vids again I realized where I recognized you from!! Great videos, btw. I enjoy.

[@DPRK_Best_Korea]

For someone that plays as much as putz, im kind of confused why he goes for pure gear.

[@Riodile]

I'm also confused about why he'd choose Jr. for Rainmaker mode. Does he just not understand weapons in general, or was he intentionally playing terribly and his rage were all an act?

[@DPRK_Best_Korea]

@@Riodile Bomb spam is a decent way to pop or contest the rainmaker shield. Bubbler on rare occasions, can help your teammates break through a checkpoint.

[@DSmith3279]

Why does he always just bum rush the objective without any tact or strategy? He just goes in and hyper focuses on the rainmaker, throwing all caution to the wind and tries to force his way through to a win. And the worst part is that he's trying to do this with a weapon that sucks in rainmaker. Slow it down, coordinate with your team, and stop doing the things that are constantly getting you killed!

[@therealandlegitsoapybubble]

tri slosher is so good

[@fantarat464]

Imo, it’s a stupidly op weapon for what it is, but maybe it’s just me being salty af lol

does anyone know what server is he in? i wanna make him rage

[@crumbledcandy]

s or x battles idk

[@ZukaTheSoilderZebra]

I'm pretty sure for region servers, it's North America. As for modes, the ones he primarily plays are X rank, S+ battles, challenges and Salmon Run Eggsecutive.

[@ilavuilavu]

@@ZukaTheSoilderZebra thanks dude ^_^

[@moose8413]

What rank is he in

[@VGCeilingFan]

@@moose8413 he was somewhere in S+ at the time of this, though I don't know what rank he's in now (probably low S+ since he mainly plays X)
