As someone who mained Heavy Splatling for a good while, A tier is giving it _way_ too much credit. Splatlings as a whole (outside of Nautilus without the air penalty) don’t really work very well with it - you’re constantly interrupting your charge to zip, so you’re essentially forced to choose between using your main weapon or the special. The most you would usually get out of it would be the ink tank refill, and getting up to shoot down from perches/off angles you couldn’t normally access for a little bit.

14:54 flaring your shield is generally not a good idea with brella, it wastes quite a substantial amount of ink for very minimal protection (you're also playing an online game, your shield might not even open on the opponent's end) also brella doesnt play super aggressively, which is what zipcaster is made for. while brella does stay at the front and single people out, it does best at instead stalling with its shield to find moments of weakness it can take advantage of, and does even better in a coordinated environment where it can call out to its teammates to say that theyre stalling against someone and that they'd be an easy target. you cant really do this with zipcaster, holding out your shield would drain your ink tank top quickly to do really anything noteworthy. if brella didnt have these ink efficiency issues i could see it being quite a lot better but still even then zipcaster doesnt really help brella with what it wants to do however i think recycled brella could actually work really well with zipcaster if the main weapon was buffed quite a bit. it plays a lot more into fighting rather than stalling like with splat brella and could actually take advantage of what zipcaster is giving it

@BEEEES4 күн бұрын
Brella does scale comfortably with savers without eating into its gear too much, zip would allow it to play aggressive off angles that draw attention so it can stall for the duration of the special and take away resources from the enemy. It wouldn't have to run as much run and swim speed because of the added mobility from zip meaning it could run more special power and main saver. It does suit splat brella nicely. I do agree about recycled brella. It feels like it would fit better especially with it's longer range value and more consistent damage.
@shaoji00093 күн бұрын
@@AzuriteMaybe yea but shield flaring is still useful to mix up your movement, which is important for a weapon that so desperately relies on it, and it barely consumes any ink (except for recycled brella, its faster at flaring but consumes too much ink to be worth it) and i disagree with zipcaster working on it, recycled brella will just instantly get shot down, especially if you arent going to be using the shield to begin with (not that its already awful)

Not all weapons have to perform a jump attack. Some can use it quickly traverse the map to get to places they can’t normally access and shoot from there. The splat charger should be a lot higher due to this.

Even if that's the case, it still wouldn't help that it would drain the weapons special meter. You'd still get 6 shots max, assuming you don't zip at all. 3-4 shots if you're zipping around and if you got the most "ideal" for it, you still would get little to no shots at all. I can see where you're coming from tho 🫡

Honestly I like the idea of removing charge penalties in the air with these theoretical zipcaster weapons. But with how you use the intensify action logo to demonstrate the weapon without charge penalties in the air, it has me thinking about an odd buff idea for intensify action: What if intensify action also gives the properties of reducing thr charge penalties while in the air? Maybe not the best idea in mind after watching the video, but thought I'd share.

@corrupt_prophet i think it would give more use to IA, so probably could be helpful at first glance. But afterwards I don't think it would be that impactful, unless if 1-3 subs heavily impacted how much it would decrease air charge penalty time, again it would only depend on how much it would decrease the air charge time penalties.

Zipcaster is such a unique special, to the point where theres nothing truly like out of the 3 games... sadly as much as I'd love to make more listings like this, I don't see it possible because in order to make another video like this, Splatoon would need to introduce a special thats not only just as creative/unique with Zipcaster if not more, but also no other special currently exists in any of the 3 games for me to compare it to.
