The Rise and Fall Of the BEST Shooter in Splatoon 3

[@Luxius_8]

It stole everything from splatershot pro and never gave it back

not paint but yk

The production value is really high with this one. Honestly I think Squeezer is in the perfect spot rn, it is still a great weapon if you have steady and consistent aim and both kits are super fun.

[@sellosqueez6278]

I think Squeezer fell off not because of the nerf it got but because bubble is really prevalent right now and Squeezer doesn't have any tools to deal with it so you have to build your comp around a Squeezer more by countering bubble. I disagree with people who say it's less reliable, I think they just don't want to put the time into Squeezer to be super good at it post-patch. Tl;dr if it weren't for bubble, squeezer would be in the same spot it's always been rn.

This comment is here to appreciate the perfect 10 minute length of the video and the very neat editing Thank you dude for this nice and educative video 🤝

I don't know if you can call it fall when Squeezers won the Gachi Yagura and Hoko Cup in Japan recently by Chocopero and Takenoko. It can still win majors, it's just not everywhere

[@spartacusthememelord6890]

I considered squeezer but never actually tried it because I heard it gave you arthritis

Yeah, the devs should really reevaluate the weapons that require mashing in Splatoon 4. Perhaps including some kind of auto fire option? For me personally, most mashing weapons are not too bad once you get used to their “rhythm,” but it really should never be required in any game imo.

[@tombadil64]

I don't agree. It creates a completely unique feel, and lots of people enjoy it. If you don't like it, don't play it.

[@bukenator0788]

@@tombadil64 If I don't like it (physically can't play it), don't put it in salmon run and the random challenges

[@tombadil64]

@bukenator0788 Doesn't matter. There are many other players who do. Do your preferences trump theirs? I think no.

[@bukenator0788]

@@tombadil64 I'm fine with it being an option, but the idea that I can get randomly assigned a random weapon that will give me physical pain and have a slower fire rate without having a say in it sucks. Like sure you could say "don't play the random challenges or squeezer sr rots," but that's basically the same as saying "oh you're in a wheelchair? I don't want to put in a ramp so you just have to go somewhere else"

[@capgorski]

Got to agree - Squeezer just feels more fair

[@deLunimary]

Loved the video dude💙

[@rain_cludz]

Tbh I actually have fun wen I used it yesterday. I had a very shaky screen but I still managed to get at least 12 or 15 kills every game it was fun even tho I was losing most of the games I play with it

[@HLRxxKarl]

Don't forget that they nerfed it so it's not as good with turbo inputs anymore. Now you basically have to match the tempo of the weapon with your taps to get its maximum effectiveness.

[@Aaroendz]

Honestly I've never played Squeezer that much because it's not my typical style when it comes to gameplay, but I think it's still decent even with the nerfs that it got. Tbh I'm really happy that Squeezer even got those nerfs to begin with because before I always hated fighting that weapon because it was so unfair to fight against. Not only for other long-ranged shooters, but for many other weapons in general.

3:33 I think it was 9.1.0

[@Legend_Face]

Forge is my new main shooter. Squeezers nerfs ruined it

[@laylakyle2546]

What if the squeezer, instead of being from Splatoon, it was from Splatoon!!??

[@azza5332]

Hmm definitely a tough one, as a casual ranked player, overall I didn't agree with the nerf. Squeezer was a hard to learn weapon from the get go as it required steady hands and aim as well as having no RNG because of perfect aim. I suppose, however, once you get good at this there aren't really any other barriers to overcome and you're just using an Spro on steroids. I guess the nerf was necessary to bring back the Spro because tbh it was one of my favs in S2, and it got the cold shoulder in S3. It might be time to get back into using it, I always like to switch up my playstyle from time to time. Really they should have just given the Spro its old Splatoon 1 range back so it could at least challenge the Squeezer.

[@galactica1981]

I think ease of use should be a factor when determining what makes a weapon one of the best, and Squeezer is simply too difficult to use because it kills your hand. Because of this, I've always considered the weapon to be overrated.

squeezer nerfed? deserved. this thing was cancer when in the hands of international players that get carried by this game’s garbage online

[@godofwar2011]

Honestly the nerf made me stop playing Splatoon for a while because this has been my favorite weapon since I started playing this game (my first Splatoon game). Didn’t even know it was high on the tier list, I just thought it was cool that it had two different firing modes. Seems like the nerf is pretty significant though, I feel like I don’t do as well with it. Though I wasn’t that good at it before but I have 700,000+ on both kits.

[@RADish-official]

The squeezer Immediately becomes f tier to those who mash at 8 ips or under.

[@GamesAndAnimes]

I love Ink Resistance. 2 main Ink Resistance + 1 main Run Speed Up and you will not notice enemy ink anymore. That is what I use with Heavy Splatling since founding it in Splatoon 2.

[@francescod2018]

Splatana Stamper should be adjusted next, its stats are still too good compared to many other weapons
