[@Kukalooka]

the boss drops less bombs when its the first one you fight and it drops more if its the 2nd one you fight cause the boss difficulty scales on what floor they're on

[@VaskoGames]

I'm so used to Pokemon Scarlet and Violet that boss scaling didn't even come to mind when playing this lol

[@Kukalooka]

@@VaskoGames ye I only realised this is the case when fighting the silly fake agent 4 thingy on repeat runs cause when that thing is the first thing you fight it gives you 3 pieces of armor and when its the second one you fight it only gives you one

[@glumaz5590]

@@Kukalookaand I think the miniboss Inklings are also more in the 20th stage

[@fate7418]

Yup, with the Rotater I think it spawns more enemies, and Intensifying Harmony there gets up to 6 of them in the last stage

ye also it rolls more and drops suction bombs when it does

[@nomad50528]

Fun Fact: Parallel Canon is technically a "bot" of agent 4. If you have your splatoon 2 save still on your switch the hair style of parallel canon will match you inkling from splatoon 2

One thing that also helps with doing single color runs (unless you're doing a drone run) is to disable all the drone hacks. As those add additional color chips to the pool and so removing them increases the chance of getting other color chips including the color you want.

[@missmadness564]

How do you even disable hacks

[@DenialRaven]

@@missmadness564 you just press on a hack you have unlocked in list and you can change what level it's at. or just on/off in case of hacks that only have 1 level

I noticed that Run speed actually boosts your brush's roll speed unlike how run speed works in multi-player. So you were just zooming so fast lol

[@trickygamer555]

But there's also a rush movement speed tho?

[@ShinKyuubi]

After you buy all the items in the shop you can buy some stuff once a day from the vender using 100 PRLZ called "Today's Find" one of those items is a 10% chance a day of 5 random ability chunks...so if you're wanting to set up an outfit for Turf Wars or the like it's a good go, it's like 35% chance a day each for a locker item or locker sticker, and 10% a day chance on either a food ticket, 5 random ability chunks, or a straight up payout of 30,000 coins.

[@tctt185_dg]

My best tip for *The Pinging Marciale* boss is to actually bump it to the bumpers. When he lands, not only does it create a shockwave and enemies, but it'll expose itself more. Keep making it bump to the bumpers while managing its enemies. The less time the boss does its attacks, the quicker you can finish the boss. If you have a pallet with Lucky Bombs, this strategy will get you a bunch of enemies which equals more Lucky Bombs, and more Lucky Bombs equals more ground covered. You'll need to be able to go around quickly incase the boss is ready to use its charge attacks. For *Parallel Canon* boss, take each of them on one at a time. Get some distance if you take too much damage, and get ALL the Armor that is in the middle of the stage. Treat them like Turf War enemies. If you learn what their Specials are, you can counteract them. And for the *Asynchronous Rondo* boss, destroy the layers with the glowing lights. These are where the game triggers the checkpoints for this boss. If you take all of the glowing layers out, the boss itself will be defeated. Any other layer it had will be destroyed in the process. Use the Ink Rails and Bounce Pads if you need the height. If you don't have a pallet with chips that improves Range, use a Special that is throwable like the Booyah Bomb, the Trizooka or the Triple Inkstrike.

[@RealSprucee]

hey uhhhh im not hating but i dont think that any of the bosses (including overlorder) have pronouns i think its just it/its

[@Luke-pv8gr]

Rush attack is actually very good on the brush kit because it comes with hammer and hammer is boosted by rush attack and can do ridiculous damage

[@justtomy8044]

10k per stamp And i guess up to 16k by launching it, lmao

[@ruby_on_gtagg]

@@justtomy8044 16k?!? thats CRAZYYY

[@Kobalent]

i feel like a fun challenge would be going for monochrome runs with chips that arent in the bias. like a mobility run with roller sounds like a ton of fun, or a damage build with splatling

[@matchas-den]

i want to thank you for hiding the last palette, i want it to be a surprise

[@janhobson6904]

Sometimes the Beluga Jellitons could actually be very useful when it comes to eight ball levels. With the proper calculating they could actually lead the ball to the goal for you!It might be slow but it could be very useful if done correctly, especially if you have to deal with more than one ball, just make sure you kill them though! Otherwise the plan would backfire terribly and the Jelliton would launch the ball to far. Be sure to splat them the moment they bring the ball close to the goal and let the magnetism do the rest of the work! It may be a slow process, but it’s very useful depending on the difficulty, just make sure only one is after the ball.

[@MnstrMthd]

"maybe i'm just a silly bean, faking it till they making it" oh same dude. this was a really fun run to watch!!

i hadn't beaten side order before watching this i decided to try a mobile tone only run with brush palette and i beat the game so thanks :)

Hey Vasko, I was reading a book of fables the other day and found a cool quote about Envy. "It is the fate of envy to attack even those characters which are superior to its malice." And you are DEFINITELY superior to its malice.

i love the stringer! its so easy to break the portals

[@VIofCaffeine]

7:40 The bounder will stop the killer wail early if it hits a bumper. I did this by accident multiple times but I'm sure it's possible to do it consistently. I could test if bumpers cause it to stop any sort of attacks it's currently doing (enemy spam, bomb etc) besides the rolling attack which destroys bumpers temporarily when Bounder runs over one.

[@octobrot7591]

7:27 For this boss I usually get him to hit the bumper and try to juggle him in the air so I can get a lot of damage in at once. If you have a bunch of main firing speed it helps but it’s a lot easier with shot, Dualies, brush, and splatling!

[@Kobalent]

a tip for the monochrome runs that don't focus on pearl drone: turn off all the pearl drone hacks, this lowers the amount of teal chips you can find, plus adds more to your risky rewards multiplier! i also like turning off the boss reveals, the 15F vending machine, and maybe a bit of damage reduction. also, max rush knockback is one of the most fun builds i have played so far so i really recommend going for it if you get at least one chip of it early on :D

[@skele_hd5628]

When i first got the 5% charge time i was completely blown away as to how powerful that is. Also, for the elusive bounder floor, you can cheese the boss with fast firing weapons by juggling the boss above your head and not letting them hit the floor. This is very viable, but only with weapons like the splatling or the splattershot.

[@sierratokl]

jajajajaj this video was very entertaining!!! loved ur humor! i enjoyed this dlc a lot, the direction, art design, and rougelike aspect of it was really pleasing to me. i missed the variety of levels of octoexpansion but every play was different because of the chips so it balanced it out.

[@aSquidMin]

use stamp on tower

[@JakoBpyroTech]

Yeah, with that much damage buffing it will let you blast through the checkpoints like they aren't even there

[@buzzco3811]

They should make a longer version of the tower that has 100 floors with enemies getting harder the farther along. Also there should be at least two new bosses. And it would be cool if they made the pallets bigger.

[@JakoBpyroTech]

For the Elusive Bounder, if you're not using Stringer or Charger, then just try to hit it into the bumpers as much as possible to keep it open. That and I would use the Stamp rush mode more, especially when it's bigger

[@dynamitekaitorn7175]

Fastest octoling. My brain: *Zoomy!*

[@ruby_on_gtagg]

BAHAHAHAH

[@squiddler7731]

If you're doing runs like this, I feel like there's no reason not to turn off the drone upgrades. If you know you don't want them you might as well thin the pool by disabling them.

[@JohnGaming11-StormSlayer]

You can disable them?

[@therobotfromirobot]

God bless new Vasko uploads

[@w0rkingovertime]

side order is pretty fun, it does get pretty easy half way through, but the bosses are super interesting, plus the music goes so hard, kinda sad agent 4 got basically turned into a easy boss instead of a possible secret boss battle(im so sad that didnt happen it would’ve been SO cool :( )

[@kittendowhatever35]

3:26 I also thought it was a beyblade the first time I encountered it

[@xanolok]

For the tower stages, use the hammer- jump attacks yeet it through the checkpoints really fast.

[@frenchsoldieranimation]

New splatoon video lets go

[@mk4-matt6290]

I once maxed out the running ink speed and rush knockback without increating my damage and it was just the funniest thing to just catapult everything over you like one of those gta ramp cars.

[@cetadel6597]

For the Rolling thingiemajig- You can get it in an infinite loop locked in the center where it hits the bumpers and dies super fast. Killer Wail also pierces its defense.

[@korriannavanheart8911]

Splat 2: OE: noo you cant just be a rougelike you have to be more linear!!1 Splat 3: SO: ha ha giant tower go brrr

[@renamamiya2279]

[@aSquidMin]

i am not blue bc im watching vasko

[@thatguyjared8560]

“OMG, Agent 4 is evil now.” Not entirely wrong. I recall hearing somewhere that the game pulls the Parallel Canon appearances from your Splatoon 2 data if it detects said data on your system.

[@yeetlejuice7181]

idk if it counts as a "cheese", but for the elusive bounder smth that i dont see a lot of people mention is that every time you run it into a bumper, it deals a solid 1000 damage to the boss. sometimes i just constantly run it into as many bumpers as possible and the damage adds up kinda quickly

[@jacobthegbgmaker6594]

[@leftonred11]

i can't believe i never knew that the hammer counts as rush attack

[@doglover5591]

if elusive bounder is your first boss, it will only drop on bomb to start, however, if elusive bounder is your second boss, it will drop three bombs. this is the same with the armor on intensifying harmony.

[@doomlord0773]

Tbh, agent 4's palette with the killer wail is really good for 2 of the 3 random bosses, mainly because bounder and rondo are very cheesable with range

[@arfirik]

this video was super useful because it reminded me that i can throw the hammer super, thanks:D

[@michelleg2749]

I use the ink mines you can set them off when you send him that way for easy damage, and it gets rid of the ball quicker.

13:45 the first time i got the soaker block zones stage was lights out with the dualies. needless to say my run died right there and i was mad about it, especially when i got the stage again normally later and breezed through it because i could finally see the gimmick

[@GunnarWahl]

the ball shoots out 3 if it's the second boss of the run, and 1 if it's the first boss of the run. much like how you get more armor and fewer inklings if you face parallel Canon first

[@xaviersoto3884]

i found that bouncy ball is easy if you just circle it around the center of the stage.

[@user-gt7jn2vk2l]

Also if the bounder floor is the 1 boss then it drop 1 splat bomb but if its the 2 boss then it shoot 3 bomb instead of 1

[@bjmax3045]

My first clear was with the brush I got a lot of mobile special charge and I just spammed stamps

[@fate7418]

Mobility Chips on brush is too op- my first ever clear was with brush because I had 5 mobile special charge chips- so whenever I moved my special charged up like instantly- and I kept stamper so the portals were super easy to demolish 😂😂😂 the final boss was a breeze, the stamper is actually super underrated like it’s really op I have since done an only drone chip run with brella and THAT was fun (I unfortunately at the very beginning had two chips I had to pick because I couldn’t ReRoll the floors, didn’t have enough mebucks Lol)

[@user-gt7jn2vk2l]
