The 4 Potential Endings Of Splatoon 3

[@tabdeugo]

Fifth ending : the horrors : tenta missiles becomes competitively viable again.

[@isuckatnames6033]

[Meanwhile across the pacific ocean] "Oohh our data says nobody's using missiles anymore I bet it's ok to make cooldown faster again"

[@shrekthe55thsharkking]

There is only 1 way I would ever accept missles back in this game or S4. 1. Up to 75 damage for direct contact and 25-30 for AoE. 2. Be able to shoot the missles down in mid-air (like how you can shoot a torp). Maybe like 70 or so HP per missle? 3. The marker that locates the player should disappear right after the missles are fired rather than after the missles have landed.

Yeah I would expect vanilla dapples to make it, definitely not nevau

[@DekuGamer]

When the weapon is so fun people get unbelievably good at it

[@KanimationYT]

Dapple gang lezzgoo!!!

[@jjQlLlLq]

​@@T1StmpMnYT I was a nouveau disbeliever before. Now I can't go back to vanilla. The torp & slider (Nintendo pls buff it…) just synergises with dapples' short range making it able to distract/slay. Risking losing cooler cuz I have to dive in & likely die a lot is uuuh, rather redundant. But wdyt?

[@MeloniestNeon]

Secret fifth ending: The Salmonids do a final final for real this time BIGGEST BIG GRAND BIG RUN and destroy all the bad maps, making them rework Hammerhead, Mahi, and all the rest into their Splatoon 1 and beta S3 counterparts.

[@ashfallen1]

Easily the best ending we could possibly get. They need to redesign all the terrible maps like Mahi and Hammerhead and actually make them like their splatoon 1 maps.

[@SALTYTOAD00]

​@@ashfallen1 The problem with that is the fact that Hammerhead has a lot of grates, making a ton of the weapons introduced in this game and Splatoon 2 unviable on it.

[@ashfallen1]

@@SALTYTOAD00 You’re right about that, however I feel as if they should keep Hammerhead faithful to the splatoon 1 version of it instead of doing an entire redesign of the map to fit with the newer weapons.

[@TorayNix]

Goron ending

[@jsCP94]

Probably the hardest copium I've seen on this channel. The devs have made it clear that they never want to go back to S1 map design. Maps like Robo Romen are probably the best we can get. I'm not saying that's a good thing, and I'd like further reworks as well. But people thinking the devs will dramatically change the maps after all the reworks we have gotten so far, is bordering on delusional.

[@LouisDesitter]

This whole video was just Chara wanting to show off his super cool masks. Well good job, because they are indeed super cool.

[@OliyTC]

Here's some editing lore for you all since I've seen a lot of appreciation for the editing style of this video: - When this video was originally scripted, double bubble wasn't really a proven thing yet. It was mentioned in the short-range special spam category, so we originally had the *three* potential futures, and I was scheming to have this video be Fire Emblem: Three Houses themed (annoyingly right after all the music got taken down on KZbin). However, has double bubble grew in popularity, it then became the Ashen Wolves route, until eventually we decided to pivot to having *four* futures and so the FE3H theming didn't work out - This video was edited between me and Cookie. I mainly thought through the theming on this video (background colors, music, intro edit, etc.) while Cookie handled the mask designs. Neither Cookie nor Chara had played Majora's Mask so it took some convincing but I think it came out really well :) - Originally I wanted to have the video go in order of the areas of MM (Swamp, Mountain, Bay, Canyon) and the masks would be either loosely based on story masks in that order or mainly based on other masks. However, Cookie COOKED with the mask designs, which forced us to change the order of the video. There being no Goron Mask was kind of just a funny side effect of the masks he picked - Snowhead doesn't really have any standout bangers for music, so even originally I was just planning on using boss music for that section. In planning, the Fierce Diety Dive mask would have gone in the Ikana-colored section to represent the end of the game. However, once Cookie came out with the Squeezer Gibdo mask, I knew that had to go with the Ikana theming, and since the Fierce Diety mask only works in boss battles, I decided to pivot that to the Snowhead-themed section, which kind of ended up becoming more of a boss-themed section :P

[@73bugs21]

NERD

[@dynamorolleruser]

Splatoon good ending: dynamo gets all the buffs it deserves and rises up to a comfortable A tier spot.

[@ashfallen1]

No, because we would have splatoon 1 dynamo roller all over again. If you don’t remember or don’t know how that was, it was basically just swing and you can drop people like flies. It also made spawn camping easier on maps like kelp dome with the insane amount of range it had.

[@SALTYTOAD00]

​@@ashfallen1 Dynamo doesn't have a Special in this game that instantly refills its tank like it did in Splatoon 1.

[@meta4240]

​@@SALTYTOAD00it has chumps, which is almost instant

[@ashfallen1]

@@meta4240 Oh wait it has chumps? I completely forgot about that, my bad.

[@ashfallen1]

Been a while since I’ve played cuz there’s literally no point for me to play the game now. Unless if I decide to grind out the salmon run crap or get all the badges, titles and banners.

[@squiffurthewolf6276]

bro whoevers idea was it to make each play style represented by a persona/mask is a genius, i love it, its completely unnecessary but its so cool

[@PragmaticAntithesis]

I think we could see a "rock paper scissors" type of meta, where Dive beats short range special spam, short range special spam beats double bubble, double bubble beats dive, and midline fighting does OK against everything.

[@hellspike6409]

10:41 Oh, did you know that this dapple player who won Area Cup is Neespa, a 12 years old prodigy who achieved 3700XP while using only blue dapples?

[@jordicochegrus657]

Having a meta that's a game of tag between the different team comps and its counters would be pretty dope. Dive teams sound super exciting, and having more weapon classes make appearances in tournaments is always great for the game, cause it means even the people who specialize in a single class can get a chance at the spotlight (with the right team).

[@HonkHonkGoose776]

this video makes me want to replay Majora's Mask lmao, shoutouts to the editors i love the splatoon mask designs

[@Totasfunnynumber]

The fifth ending: Quad gold Aerospray. Thanks to booyah slightly charging your teammates' meters; paired with how many booyahs a SINGLE Gaero can dish out, even without a single point in SC. The sheer oppressive force of quad Gaero spreads like wildfire across the meta. Dropping the bit and being more realistic; I could seriously see double or triple booyah bomb as an actually viable strategy

[@ajmoment8091]

I don't think booyah will be a major contendor for good special, not necessarily because it's bad, but more so because almost all the weapons that have it are bad or mediocre. Aerospray is a meme weapon, Gloogas aren't bad but are one of the most limited fighting weapons in the game, Pro is the most just okay weapon in the game, Hydra is a competetively unviable main weapon. The only ones I could see use are machine and Sblast, but both of those also have problems of their own, Machine struggles vs dive and Sblash struggles vs midline, and neither would spam it enough to make it one of the comp's main retake specials.

[@rubi7959]

0:22 that pic goes hard

[@PinkPuffyPastry]

LOVE this breakdown!! I really like how you differentiated that a Frontline meta would feel different from S2 as well as how much different tournament footage was used SO excited for the late game this patch : )

[@GraySnep]

6:45 “Swords/Roller”: *Bucket*

[@FinnishArsonist]

I mean bucket really is just a less extreme roller/decav. Being a short range AoE kill weapon. Honestly stamper is probably the weirdest one there.

[@DekuGamer]

Dekus and Majora's Mask mentioned!! Fr though, this was a cool idea for a video. I got into Splatoon at the end of Splatoon 2, so that meta is very familiar lol. Happy to see so much variety being used rn. Such a fun era for competitive play.

[@twewymuncher]

not entirely related to the topic of the video but i adore the majoras mask theming for this video. whoever decided to theme everything using the masks and music is a genius, massive props to the editors!!

Majoras mask themed splatoon video? Yes please! (Rip Goron mask apparently)

[@probablygeneric429]

You could see the funky tent/brush/flingza/sword comp as the goron mask

[@MikhailKutzow]

I'm glad to see the Splatoon 3 meta this late in the game feeling diverse and experimental, and hopefully this means that even if the meta starts to settle, it doesn't end with anything being too dominant. It's a really nice change of pace from how things were this time 2 years ago where the competitive meta had already managed to become very stagnant around a very small pool of options.

[@Lumi-0101]

This video was absolutely needed for me at the moment since I am building 2 teams right now that have very different playstyles. This helped me to realize that I'm not completely doomed with either of the comps I've been running with both of the teams

No idea what you guys were consuming (9:19 Chateau Romani), but I need the Range Gibdo Mask (0:40), the Deku Inkstrike Mask (2:32), The Bubble Zora Mask (5:05) and the Fierce Deco Mask (6:30) in Splatoon now.

[@T1StmpMnYT]

8:55 I'm a pretty solid stamper user

[@blankconstruct7755]

Note that the single game that pndr took in the finals was on flounder where the dapple dualies would not stop reef sliding into the enemy zone and dying. The final game where the other team Just Picked 52 and splattershot was not close so I have my doubts about mines working outside of very specific circumstances.

[@isabellaandrade4247]

[@despairingdreamer]

i know NOTHING about the splatoon competitive scene, but i felt myself getting excited at the mention of the carbon roller deco in the "dive" section... i just like carbon roller a... normal amount

[@marcooshendlesun4211]

Having a brush and a dynamo on a team comp definitely has goron mask energy

[@Sprigzz]

I feel like no matter what, slosher and pencil will always be prevalent in the meta. They both provide so much consistency and stability to the comp that allow you to experiment with your other two weapon slots.

[@capt2751]

Tenta missiles: You’ve been met with a terrible fate

[@bitfish2155]

I think double zipcaster if ran with a lot of special charge could happen. It would probably be stamper and slosher deco. Slosher can get a lot of zipcaster and works really well either way stamper. This can also make it so they can create a crossfire anywhere in the map.

[@shadowscribe]

The four (plus one) directions is somewhat ideal. A game with this many weapons is supposed to have have many options that have their give and takes. Sure rando play being whatever is one thing, but to see high level play shake out like that is delightful.

[@Fathom732]

8:20 Is there any reason flux isn't listed? Seems like it would be a good counter pick against sharking comps, if nothing else That QR comp tho... truly beautiful. I do hope (and agree but I'm not a top analyst) your right that the slightly better comps are also harder, and so all will be viable for a long time Edit: the fact that everything is already high enough skill seems like a reason. Still... what could one more player on a weapon that's one of the 10 hardest* hurt? *pure missile spam, although easy, as already established, is not viable without fighting which is incredibly hard

[@harmless9336]

Problematic short range gets strong buffs -> Players: its fine they can get literally anything because they struggle against problematic mid ranges. Also players: these mid lines are overtuned.
