I miss you Triumvirate… please come back soon…

[@Olavi_VLIi.47]

You can now encounter the Triumvirate normally, after the Big Big Run. There’s now a small chance that you encounter it when you get an emergency wave. Note! I heard someone else say this. It may not be true, but I’m pretty sure it is. It makes sense, because the SplatNet app has a counter for how many times you’ve dethroned a Triumvirate and there’s a badge for it.

[@sonicrunn3r895]

K52, KPro, KShot, and a majority of others in S2's final metas were also some of the final weapons added to the game so I think that is pretty par for the course for “we're making strong kits at the very end of the game” with this series lol

[@ShurikanBlade]

Salmon run is such a weird thing to acknowledge in this season cuz while everything they added was cool. It’s basically a limited time event that’s over already (except for the roller). For all we know big big run may never happen again and we don’t know how they’ll handle triumvirate in the future. It’s really good stuff but i wish there was just more everlasting stuff. Stuff that just isn’t lock behind certain times that can be accessed more frequently.

[@adrianleonce455]

Personally, this was by far the best season for Splatoon 3. It did sooo many things right and not much wrong. My favourite additions have to be: -Necessary buffs to my Stringers + adding a new Stringer that is fun and threatning. - Maps now feeling better to play on when it comes to movement and cover. Also, they are now a bit more aesthetically pleasing thanks to the changes to the blocks. - The Grizzco Roller. Just.....everything about it makes me feel like a kid on a sugar rush. If they does end up being the last season, im glad it could end on a banger.

[@sonicrunn3r895]

I know so many people were like “where was all this good kit design in previous seasons”, but this is the same situation to me where a massive majority of Splatoon 2's strongest kits were some of the last added to the game (name a kensa prefix weapon and there's a 50% chance it was meta). A lot of the time the heavy hitters are the very last kit additions.

[@yoursnatchedweave641]

which is dumb af

[@PrunselClone]

@@yoursnatchedweave641do you think they intentionally make bad kits? it takes a long time for them to figure out the meta and start making kits accordingly.

[@sonicrunn3r895]

@@yoursnatchedweave641 I understand the sentiment but generally especially for first kits and early second ones they kinda just have to cram every special and sub onto things, obviously leaving some room to swap stuff before they do drop (e.g. basically all of S2's 2nd kits were entirely in the files for the entire lifespan before they dropped and changed basically on a consistent basis update to update before said kit released). By the end, they have a generally decent distribution and can then see where to give a few more where needed (e.g. basically every special below the count of 7 besides booyah bomb and missiles got a new kit in this update).

[@epicgamerzfail4575]

i remember reading a comment that said that they ran out of bad kits to give so they had to start giving good kits, and im convinced that's the only logical explanation lol

The new cards are not surprising anymore, as you can already tell what they are going to be when they show the new kits.

[@redkritter1225]

I really hope they update the game with at least 1 more season. Or at least make the Salmon run event happen on a cycle.

[@Dj.D25]

I am hoping the next season adds 3rd kits to many of the weapons like in Splatoon 1 and 2.

[@theghostcreator776]

This quality over quantity approach is what we needed

[@maplemiles3381]

Splatoon 3 with each update was quality over quantity hints why each season keeps getting positive feedback and living up to it's hype

[@splatteaverse]

I'm so sad it's the last season, man. These weapons were super fun to use in battles and Big Run too, everyone is talking about Splatoon 4 already in the future but who knows. Now we have Summer Nigts Splatfest to look forward to coming soon. 🦑

[@Goobilicous]

Based on other videos, I don't believe S4 will be coming anytime soon. In my opinion it would be frankly idiotic to already pump the game out. I hope they give it a minimum of 2 or 3 more years before they do big reveals.

[@splatteaverse]

@@Goobilicous I agree with this. My opinion is that there have been videos and rumors about being a fourth game but I doubt it too. Honestly the end of the road is a better route for all of us. Plus it's still early for another Splatoon game.

[@lazarus3100]

I will say what I've said on other videos. The changes to splash wall were likely not in any regards to meta or top-tier weapons like squeezer or 52gal. If you notice, every weapon that was buffed to deal more damage to splash wall is a short range weapon. It is far more likely that the devs thought that splash wall was too effective against short range blitzing weapons than any sort of addressing of squeezer or 52gal (or even lower tier).

[@THECHEEEEEEEESEE]

I just hope Splatoon 4 doesn’t have Seasons - they made every free update feel underwhelming…

[@Neoxon619]

They did seasons to cut down on crunch, so don't expect them to revert to the S1/2 method.

[@sonicrunn3r895]

@@Neoxon619 They say it, but another reason on top of that was probably because in Splatoon 1 and 2 they could pad out a lot of the weekly content with stuff that was already finished and in the files (a lot from day one), or stuff like weapons that were in the previous game that should've been there at launch in S2's case. But yeah, I don't expect them to go back to the old way ever, especially when S2 already ended with moving more into the “bigger drops on a longer interval” by the time the 3.0s started.

[@tiqosc1809]

they overall give out the same amount of content with or without season so it doesnt matter

[@octoecho]

i think surely they’ll do one more update in august/september, for 3rd kits (sheldon’s picks/kensa weapons), and it’ll finish off the 2 years worth of updates they said

[@matt2027]

[@thunder2406]

[@FaisalBashir1]

Tell that to the splat2 devs 😂

[@Dj.D25]

It did bother me to see a lack of weapons with Fizzy Bomb and Torpedo. Especially since it was introduced late in Splatoon 2's life and I would think with Splatoon 3, more weapons would get it to fully take advantage of how many weapons it would greatly fit with. I prefer the fizzy bomb more though. I am still hoping for 3rd kits in the next season or 2 just like in Splatoon 1 and 2.

[@Clepto_and_Co]

the only problem i have with mist on the trash brella is the ink consumption. you can't start a fight with it, and it doesn't really do anything to enemies already in the mist. it's area denial is decent, but a lot of times i'd even take dart over it

[@krvgames9258]

I think that we’re going to get a Drizzle Season 2024 and a Chill Season 2024 to end the game, as there are still weapon variants that haven’t been added yet. Like Fresh Squiffer and Bamboozler 14 Mk 3 for example. So I think that if we’re going to get a Drizzle Season 2024 and a Chill Season 2024, returning weapon variants will be added.

[@CalmEnergy2125]

something I dont really understand is why everyone is assuming this is the last season, weren't we told that we would get 2 years worth of catalogues? Wouldn't that mean that we would be getting one around the 2 year anniversary in a few months? If I'm wrong then let me know but I just don't understand why we're assuming it's the last one, especially when no advertising for the season ever mentioned it being the final update anywhere

[@Goobilicous]

It would make sense. I think they might do more seasons and/or catalogues, but I believe most people are saying there just might not be anymore big content. Also, people are following the timeline of previous splatoon games, meaning they will do 2 full years of content updates. I'm with you, they have not announced that this is the last season (although KZbinrs are defo using it for clickbait) and I'm hoping people don't start begging for S4 already. Games not even 2 yet.

[@Fryethusiast]

The end of this season in September will be just over a week short of 2 years. Unless I'm not understanding something it would make sense for this to be the last seasons since roughly 2 years would've passed

[@Goobilicous]

@@Fryethusiast That would make sense. However I was saying they could do more seasons or events without new content to bring back catalogues or something (just ideas). The main idea is that S3 is nowhere close to done and even though this might be the last major content update, that does not automatically mean we should ditch the game. I hope that explains better. I have the right idea in my head but struggle to verbalize it at times lol

@Jack_Spl3 I don't mean the range blaster itself, it's mostly kraken that's the problem. I've never liked it since it was introduced into 3 it's just worse now since there are so many. I mostly hate kraken because every other special can be countered by other specials, and can counter others. Except kraken which just goes through everything else.
