Seeing Charlie get used to the squid roll immediately when I was still struggling to remember to do it, as well as see other “veterans” of the series have the same problem, makes me feel like it’s almost easier for someone new to the game to remember it, when they haven’t formed any of the bad habits.

[@georgia513]

i literally forgot in all of my matches that squid roll is a function, i just ended up resorting to swimming across the map lol

[@RandomImaginings]

I learned early on in Grizzco matches that if you switch forms quickly while swimming as you drop off an egg you can speed up the process of swimming backwards. Trying to break that habit for the new dodge and wall jump has been mind numbing. 😆 That being said, I can see myself running pure gear for running/swimming speed and enhance once we have a chance to upgrade gear.

holy hell i used to watch you so much when i was little 😭😭

[@one_step_sideways]

A+ is bad yes. But let that not get to you. Charlie is a certified gamer like us, that gets the hang of things really fast due to high IQ. He is also very good at Fortnite (for some reason) and Doom Eternal, I've noticed. Very few people are born with a high IQ and it's not a reason to brag about it, because bragging is a sin and is against the teachings of Christ (I am Orthodox Christian and everyone else should be too). Also my pfp isn't supposed to represent anything I just put it way back when that expanding mind meme was relevant and it just stayed there haha I've reached X rank just after some 300 hours in Splatoon 2. I haven't played it a lot (only around 450 hours in 5 years and 1000% the entire campaign and DLC) but even this Splatfest I managed to get 11 wins and only one loss when I first booted the game after 8 months of not playing Sploon. Other than that I've also got a fair share of sick replays and team wipes in mere seconds. Also if you use a smurf account, you might be able to achieve X rank as fast as level 13 in Splatoon 2 - all you need to do is absolutely destroy everyone in every single fight at S (not S+) rank and play only one game mode you are most comfortable with.

[@azza5332]

I doubt he will, he's picked up tons of trending games and dropped them once he's gotten the views. He's done that with other games and never touched them again.

I love how you’re giving this game a shot. I have been playing Splatoon competitively for quite a while now and it’s so nice to see the game grow out to more people.

The competitive community is actually super nice and mature. I would say it is one of the best there is to offer.

It’s still a kids game, why hate that? It’s literally a fact. So is Pokémon, Pokémon is a kids game, you don’t see that drawing out the adult audience, so why care? This game is blatantly a kids game, that doesn’t mean adults can’t play and enjoy it.

[@rafeyos3396]

The game is marketed toward a younger audience (especially from early 2014-2015 marketing) and has kept that reputation. Even with that tho nintendo as a whole makes games marketed toward younger audiences so it is not an odd one out. Though with splatoon it definitely got the short string on how much that marketing has effected it thus far, but having streamers play it more (especially ones with bigger followings) is gonna help negate/wipe away that stereotype.

Basically manually-controlled aim assist

[@space_bacon1953]

I dont know if people realize how good motion is, I've been playing splatoon since the first game and its like so much better having motion since you can do flicks and finer movements with it compared to sticks. Of course it wont matter much below like S rank, but for things like shooters and chargers, its a must. Kind of like a hybrid between controller and mouse controls (when done right)

[@shadowsneak100]

Ugh sorry I could never get over the weird camera gliding that comes with motion controls. To me it feels like playing with mouse acceleration on. I prefer my flicks to land in the same place every time ty.

[@Rjwubs]

Motion controls unironically are better than stick. Strange, but it works in splatoon some how.

[@bigfatchumster3321]

the answer is that there’s no aim assist in splatoon

[@BlackKanye]

No aim assist and the stick controls are worse than a ps2 shooter's

[@NotPython]

i personally think motion controls fall flat solely because they disabled vertical look with the right stick. If they turned that lil switch on then i would be more than happy using motion every game

[@bdhdr4226]

Gyro is better than stick across the board you just need to get used to it.

[@polkadi]

Using separated joy cons, the motion controls become so good that they're a no brainer to use. I can reliably hit shots that I simply can't on a stick.

[@dbest8083]

As for the collateral, it's not because of the Online (although I don't blame you for thinking it was): charger weapons can actually shoot through people, so it's technically possible to even wipe a team with a single shot.

[@rollerking8818]

As someone who has played Splatoon 2 for 5 years, motion controls are a Requirement for playing at any level that isn’t the lowest. He was just playing against a bunch of 11 year olds chewing on their controllers. Edit: a lot of people are saying that motion is really hard, and I used to be like that too. I thought motion was to confusing and I couldn’t get myself it use it at all. I forced my way through it and lost a lot of games, but In the end it increased my rank from B- to S. If you want to play well it’s absolutely necessary, though it is hard to learn.

[@uhohmemebiggestboy212]

the first game captured my heart and I don't care how old I am I will forever love the franchise my number one strategy is too sneak all the way up to the enemies spawn immediately so while everyone's begins the fight in the middle I'm covering their entrance and gaining turf, they can't get back into battle fast and if they want to take back that turf they risk letting my team push up, had a decent success rate weak to rollers tho but I learned if you move slow enough while in ink the surface doesn't move at all so if you shoot the roller move away from that spot deal with any teammates shooting where you were and then reclaim that turf it's pretty easy to get a good 60% of coverage, major problem is relying on your teammates to win the first Battle and relying on them killing anyone who gets passed you or anyone that comes passed if they kill you

Motion is the best way to pay the game. Sticks may be more comfortable when you start out but once learnt you'll see a big improvement in skill. Of course you don't have to use them if you don't plan of getting good at the game but they're a necessity if you want to play comp.

[@JuniperGreen162]

They aren't a necessity. I use motion controls, and while I do believe they offer more potential than sticks, there are X-Rank (or S+ in Splatoon 1's case) players who use sticks and play on teams. Some of my friends use stick controls and they manage to keep up and/or outpace my own gameplay. It's really all about comfort though. If you've played many shooters with sticks in the past, sticks are just going to work for you. As for me, I could never touch Splatoon, or any shooter, with sticks. It's motion or mouse for me. lol.

[@eonstar]

@@JuniperGreen162 essentially playing with sticks is capping your possible skill level. It's not like you can't good with them, but there is so much farther you could get with motion.

[@SilverRyuu]

@@JuniperGreen162 It's not that you can't be good with sticks, it's that you can be better with motion. There's a reason the higher up you go the less people play sticks. 99% of comp players play motion (there may be like 1 or 2 who don't). There are things you can do with motion that you can't with sticks. It's the same reason most PC gamers use mouse and keyboard over controller. Of course, this all assumes that you can physically play motion

[@mattiedee1037]

@@JuniperGreen162 sticks are still a huge skill cap compared to motion, the difference between motion and stick players in X-Rank is disproportionally huge and it is a big necessity if you want to compete in splatoon, having a mouse-like movement in a controller is a no brainer and a huge advantage to sticks in a competitive scenario, but yea, nothing is stopping you from using sticks tho.
