Yeah, I read it as Calamari Inkantation, that song everyone loves.

[@chestbumphero]

LittleMisZorua dude that song is played literally every where in this game if you know where to find it

[@LittleMisZorua]

Chestbumphero Well, he said something about spoilers?? I've never actually played the game, so you can't really fault me for that.

[@chestbumphero]

***** My bad, but no seriously the song is played literally everywhere. If you wait around in the plaza a bit, you hear the same jingle.

[@LittleMisZorua]

Chestbumphero Ah. I like it when games do that, foreshadow the main theme of the game by using it in different arrangements like in Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky. I'm sure a lot of other games do this, it's just the first that came to mind.

[@mewwishtimer7285]

MkII is probably best. An Eliter? Disrupt it to pressure and make it move away. A Carbon Roller? Disrupt it to keep it far away and take it out easier. Also, the MkII has light depletion (MkIII has Heavy) so getting Echolocators is much more useful than getting barely any Inkstrikes (echo is just better in most situations in the first place). With MkIII, it's easy to miss burst bomb and deplete your ink. Disruptors are also provocative, as they completely suppress you as it's easy to waste ink with bbombs.

[@YourPalRal]

[@ianluk8855]

For those curious, the sheet music at 7:38 is Calamari Inkantation, a song that plays near the end of the game, performed by the Squid Sisters. The song is in Eb Minor, which might come as a surprise to those who've heard the song.

[@captainquadrikorn1437]

YES ARNICK! I knew he would show up based on Chugga's gear :D

[@emmysama8195]

and let's never play Moray Towers again

[@YoungTheFish]

Fun fact: The old bamboo gun depicted on the sunken scrolls is actually a relatively common hand-made toy. Find a hollow out piece of small bamboo, jam a stick in one end, make sure it's a tight fit (or wrap it in paper). Put in a piece of wet paper on the other end. Push the stick, the wet paper will pop out by the air pressure. I wouldn't surprise if some of the devs made this toy when they were young.

[@dr-chompz7312]

Damn, Moray Towers ruined weapon variety...since you can't choose maps, snipers will always be there if Moray Towers is in rotation. Short range weapons all die. Infact, most general shooters die. Heck, I use the Cherry Nozzlenose. I am always behind a wall, yet there are 3 E-Litres that I cannot hit. I die. Alot. Salt over ;-;

[@hagopkiljian6065]

Episode 29 and 30 both had a weapon bio about a weapon that had a higher rate of fire than their class is supposed to have(rapid blaster is pretty self explanatory and the bamboozler has a shorter charge time), but don't have a one shot kill(in other words, do less damage). Pretty cool coincidence

[@TJKoopa3018]

26:32 it's the notes for calimari inkantation or that one song Callie and Marie sing. Thank god for band class

[@TristinBailey]

13:57 Ink Resist Up: Always helps at playing disatnce. *disatnce*

[@dynamokota]

One thing you forgot to mention is that the best way to shoot the gun is to *_constantly_* shoot half-charges for the most efficiency, and I'd say that the gun more plays as a hybrid between a rifle and a long-ranged shooter.

[@KanaIzumiya]

Chugga sounds older... or is it just me?

[@Set8wide]

8:06. I sightread the music and instantly found that it's the melody for the Squid Sisters' theme, Shiokara Bushi.

[@zavier0013]

20:28 As a main as an E-Liter- I can tell you on Moray Towers, there is a tiiiiiinyyy sliver between the pole and the wall... Most sniper mains use this when in a sniper fight in hopes that the other will miss by an inch... Plus, we can reach across that full plaza area with ease... Sorry!

[@stanley1698]

13:49 Wow, this really is the No Land Beyond of Splatoon.

[@rexthewolf3149]

God a destiny reference here.

[@jshbbkns7896]

you got to tap fire with the bamboozler. you charge the first shot fully then you tap the next shot for a kill. thats why it has the same range charged and uncharged

[@Milo-zw4oo]

that sunken scroll actually has the sheet music for Calamari Inkantation, the squid sisters' most famous song.

[@xakue9335]

Actually The Mark 2 is my favorite bamboozler, played with swim speed up and Ninja squid its a great weapon to sneak around with and is really fun to play if you play it, sneakily

[@sporekid2002isaiah]

Clever Chuggaa. You Cosplayed as Arnick.

[@kirby5329]

whos that?

[@arlofennekku]

kirby 5329 TamarinFrog's Splatoon character, Tammy is a Splatoon artist who draws this character and other characters. I think the reason Emile paid homage to Arnick was because of the pun in the art she sent to Emile.

[@colmkelly72]

20:06 I love when he said to slap his knee and the Inkling just nods saddly

[@AlphaOutlaw]

The funny thing is that two weeks ago, I fell in love with the Mk III much like the love of the Cherry H-3. I was curious about the view of the weapon and was also struggling to figure out what I could use for abilities so this will likely be helpful. One question though, why isn't Special Saver up as a recommendation for the Mk III? I'm curious due to the heavy special depletion.

[@EeveeVSHoOh]

watching these videos have been making want to get back into splatoon and actually learn how to play it well instead of just playing it

[@RLCLONED]

25:52 Listen closely, Here's a little lesson in trickery

[@aaaae7586]

The sunken scroll actually refers to the song Calimari Inkantation. Which is the song Callie and Marie sing at the final boss.

[@TheLaXandro]

Protip: never turf with Bamboozler's uncharged shots. Charged ones cover a lot more, so much in fact, it outinks turfing goliaths like H3 and Mini Splatling and comes dangerously close to Dynamo, brushes and cuddleguns. It's nowhere as efficient, flexible or safe as any of those, though, so it won't turf a lot in general, but it charges specials fast if left unattended.

[@AllieS87267]

Chuggaa? Was the shirt at reference to captain cuttlefish/the squidbeak splatoon, the new Pokémon games, or Hawaii in general? Please clarify. (Or someone else can That's fine...)

[@AllieS87267]

SPOOK oh. Thank you I honestly wasn't expecting a reply. Have a great day.

[@oldartchannel8471]

From what i think, (and in the top comment section from what i see) its a reference to one of the well known splatoon artists. That is TamarinFrog and the inkling played here is an oc known as arnick, and that oc mains the bamboozler . And due to a story event with her ocs he got a shirt (cafe-cardamari.tumblr.com/post/152298676818/a-wild-alola-form-arnick-has-appeared-based-on) I hoped this helped you learn about the community data, And i hope i was not too late with the reply.
