Rule 1 of tournament etiquette: Please don't check in to a tournament unless you are actually ready to play the tournament.
Being late to your set doesn't just delay that set but the rest of the tournament. Everyone else shouldn't have to wait just cause your team is unable to be there on time
Honestly after the buff Dynamo is such an interesting weapon - it's still really difficult to use but all its attacks feel impactful now, and knowing how & when to use each one while managing its ink consumption creates so much room for skill expression and interesting gameplay...
...in salmon run.
Idk if I'm crazy for this but I think this meta might be the least fun state s3 has ever been in
not subtweeting i promise but something thats been on my mind a long time is that people think splatoon has to be like other esports. it doesn't. I love our scrappy little community and the fact that we're so grassroots and tight knit
So this is a thing apparently???

This image sums up my thoughts on the new patch
Screenshot of part of the Splatoon 3 11.1.0 patch notes, reading "Dynamo Roller, Gold Dynamo Roller, Starz Dynamo Roller: Lessened the effect of ink-consumption reduction when equipping the Ink Saver (Main) ability."

The pronoun labeler, which was by far the most useful labeler on the site, was deleted by its creator. But thanks to @ripperoni.com there’s a new one available. I highly recommend it. It’s a great way to share your pronouns or see someone else’s pronouns at a glance.

Tips on how to improve your mental
The moment in question:
(Pancakes pov in replay mode)
Picture of LessThanThree and N_A_M standing on the central tower in Splatoon 3's Scorch Gorge stage. Taho's octoling is holding an E-Liter 4k while standing on a block to the left of the platform. N_A_M's inkling is standing on the ground in front of that block with Twinklez Splat Dualies. Altalyra's octoling is to the right of both of them with a Stickerz Splatana Stamper. Pancakes's inkling is jumping on the spot to the right of Alta holding a Tri-Stringer, and Arikitty's inkling is standing on a block to the right of the platform, holding a Splash-o-matic and a Power Clam. In the background there is a large metal cage around the top of a pole, and several pale peach/orange rock formations in the distance.
LessThanThree and N_A_M's inklings and octolings gathered around the base of the Clam Basket on Splatoon 3's Scorch Gorge stage. Ariikitty is close to the camera on the left side of the picture, looking at the camera. Alta and Taho are slightly right of the centre of frame, further away from the camera by the lump on the ground in front of the clam basket. Pancakes has just super-jumped out of frame, leaving a trail of green-yellow ink from the area Taho and Alta are standing in leading straight upwards into the sky. N_A_M is standing slightly left of the centre of frame, further away from the camera on the raised platform by the clam basket, looking upwards toward the basket.
LessThanThree and N_A_M gathered around the base of the Clam Basket on Splatoon 3's Scorch Gorge stage. Alta is closer to the camera, slightly left of the centre of frame, facing away from the camera, throwing a clam towards the open basket. Ariikitty is in the right hand side of the image standing on the lump at the base of the clam basket, looking to the left slightly away from the camera, also throwing a clam into the open basket. N_A_M is standing on the ground nearby her, closer to the camera and looking in the same direction. Taho is standing on the ground in front of Arii, closer to the centre of the frame, looking towards the camera. At the very bottom of the frame, towards the right hand side is Pancakes in swim form, partially out of frame with 4 clams around them.
After just under a year of playing comp, we won Bronze Bracket in Shark Tank: Homeland Edition #4! Thank you to @itsn-a-m.bsky.social for playing with us as a sub, and GGs to all the teams we faced!

Another showcase another time I’m impressed by how well teams come together after only 6 weeks in the academy. 100% the best way into Comp Splatoon and I can’t recommend it enough to those looking to start taking part in tournaments.

I added a third circle because I'm such an overachiever :3 (that and cooler slander is my passion)
A venn diagram of Splatoon 3 specials being placed on how good they are and how fun they are to play. In the just good section, there is: Zipcaster, Booyah Bomb and Tacticooler. In the just fun section, there is: Kraken Royale, Ink Jet, Ultra Stamp and Super Chump. In the good and fun section, there is: Trizooka, Crab Tank, Triple Inkstrike and Ink Vac. Big Bubbler and Reefslider are on the edge of the good and fun section as Ariikitty is undecided fully on these two specials. Outside the diagram, there is: Tenta Missiles, Ink Storm, Wave Breaker, Killer Wail 5.1, Splattercolor Screen and Triple Splashdown as they are neither good or fun in Ariikitty's opinion
Screw your special tier lists. I want to see people's special venn diagrams on what specials are not only good but actually fun to play
(this is highly a personal opinion and I am smooth brain)
Here in X Rank Civilization, no one chooses to jump for the ttek region. It’s better to be safe and do the one block jump for the takaroka, rather than risk your entire queue time for just 1 game tick less lag.
