I'm not sure what to make of this. One of my big critiques of X rank is that no one is pushing the objective, and ESPECIALLY when there's a man advantage - so yeah, I think there is something to be said for these lower rank players actually paying attention to the Objective more.

[@automatic5]

yall r making x rank sound like x turf war

[@AHAHHAHHA]

This just further proves that Any rank below X is purgatory. All these kids are pushing the objective. They’re playing exactly how the game is supposed to be played. No bull, just pure, adrenaline-filled fun. This is splatoon in its purest form. But because they don’t abuse specific strategies, they’ll be stuck here forever. It doesn’t matter what you do in this game. The meta is the only ticket to x rank. I genuinely felt bad when Chara rayed the tower. What could they do? What could they do. :(

[@keengoon116]

Yeah i think it was neat too, but I don't think it's that extreme. You can get far without playing meta, good awareness and a solid understanding of the game goes far. Sure, it's not as easy

[@hansleano6629]

@@denverkweh1642 My gameplay improved watching pros on KZbin seeing how they spot opponents that used to not be obvious to me. I just try to be observant of their vids and spot the enemy before they can so when I actually play the game it just happens now. Awareness of where your opponents are is good for survivability. Just keep playing the game. Once you get to S+ the difficulty curve won't be that drastic it might be a bit time consuming tho(that's how I remember it atleast). I also tried to just do ranked and avoid turf, if I lose too much I rank down but that also means the games would probably be easier since taking a break on the game will probably make me a bit rusty. Just playing ranked help me learn to play chargers and tenta brella. The mind set in turf war just feels too different compared to ranked. Also know when to rush objective it's best to get picks first at the start of the game, rush when 2 enemies are down and take defensive positions if the opposite happens. Getting the pop in rainmaker is good for map control but check if your teammates are commited to popping it or if all your opponents have lethal bombs.

@@PinkPixelProductions my theory is everyone does their own thing, it’s harder to go play on your own since there’s no communication but “this way” or “Boohyeah”. Someone may be trying to build a special or take an alternate path to get to advantage but nobody else knows their plan so when there’s zero correct guessing on what your teammates are gonna do things can go to crap. The best that can be done usually is following the format of slayers ( weapons best for splatting ) go first and get the splats, mid ( those better at inking turf and therefore making ground for teammates ) stay on objective as best they can and make sure there’s place to move and backliners ( long range weapons with good splatting power ) stay behind the objective and try not to be splatted as a living jump point for the team, especially slayers who as those going for splats would be dying most

I think you should heighten the stakes.

If your team wins with a knockout: > If the weapon you're using has "locked" variants, they get unlocked and may be used again. (For example, if you win with the Custom Splattershot Jr., the base and Kensa Splattershots Jr. get unlocked.) > If the weapon you're using has no "locked" variants, pick a weapon set of the same family to unlock. (For example, if you win with the Custom Splattershot Jr. and the other Splattershots Jr. are unlocked, you may pick between the Splattershot Classic and the Splattershot Pro to unlock their variants.)
