      @@sashasscribbles Being shot through an open shield isn't a bug, sadly. Splatoon 3, like most shooters, is attacker-side authoratitive at all times. This means that if the shot lands on the attacker's screen, no matter how far off the mark the shot is on your screen, it'll count as a hit. It's the same reason E-Litres can hit you even if you duck behind cover, your position desynced on their end and you didn't make it to cover on their client. In the case of Brellas, it's a matter of the fact that the canopy simply didn't open yet on their side of the game. It's not something that can be fixed, really. It's just fundamentally how the game is engineered.

    The fact the Splattershot Nova needs that buff honestly says so much about how that weapon is designed. Its entire gimmick was that its shot deviation does not increase as you hold the trigger, but the base shot deviation is so awful that it doesn't even need to scale in the first place. I'm honestly just so sad for that weapon. It could've really taken up the Dual Squelcher's mantle but it's really never found its place because of just how clunky it is.

    • @abra_escaped
      @abra_escaped Před 2 měsíci +11

      According to the wiki, the deviation actually does increase over time lol. Starts at 10% for the first shot and increases by 3% per shot until 25%. Since that takes 5 shots, or the same (minimum) amount you need to get a kill, you always end up with a very high chance of missing. I hope they buff this thing's damage by literally 1 so it can be a 4 shot

  • @MeloniestNeon
    @MeloniestNeon Před 2 měsíci +16

    To address the biggest non-buffs of the patch, Painbrush and Nova (Dapples just needs a kit please Nintendo Clear Dapples with splat bomb and trizooka), I've had two buff ideas for them for a while.
    For Painbrush, to tie into the rolling buffs they've been giving it, I think letting it attack immediately with next to no windup if you attack out of a roll would be a great buff, as it makes it less about sharking while giving the roll some utility, and allows it to fight better if it takes advantage of corners and cover while rolling.
    Nova is a bit more complex, with its new accuracy buff I think the grounded mode is fine, though I might want it a tiiiny bit closer to Splattershot Pro accuracy. However, to tie into the space gun theming, and to give it a more unique gimmick that shooters haven't seen before, I think giving it a jump-based ability would be fun, my current favorite idea being to make it have perfect accuracy like Splash or Squeezer after jumping, sort of like an S-blast style gimmick in reverse. Maybe give it slightly better jump mobility than other weapons, too?

      That’s a terrible idea. Especially since two backlines have Kraken, and those are the people you typically jump to after respawning. It might fix kraken cheese but it will ruin teams trying to use kraken to get kills/take space while regrouping from other people dying. Plus the way they fixed kraken cheese in the patch is already good enough.

    I'm interested in the 9:03 image's base.
    Anyway, as I mentioned on your video about Trizooka, I did suggest a velocity nerf to Trizooka's shots as the primary nerf idea. Even if what would be needed for velocity reduction would be only something like 5% since I don't have a good enough idea of exact values, I imagine as long as it's reactable at suitable distances, that would stop repeats of the Twitter display.
    And I do notice that you bring up about a weapon called the Carbon Roller becoming the lowest Special Points weapon and having Trizooka available. Having actually played a Splatoon 2 demo before and using a Roller there, I do know that Rollers show signs of being so susceptible to kiting, so I can actually see the reason for that particular buff to a Roller. I can still punctuate this: *active involvement of gameplay for power characters is good at having the players make the power instead of the other way around.* It shows with Clubs in Kid Icarus Uprising. It shows with Bowser in the Super Mario RPG remake (which I know is purely single player, but work with me here). That sort of policy could be involved with rebalancing the Trizooka.

    @ghostreni Před 2 měsíci +1

    NOVA BUFF LETS GO (it’s been a thousand years…)
    Also I love how on top of the pfs nerf, it seems like they’re also trying to indirectly nerf Pencil. They’re buffing other cooler weapons (dapple movement + vapple 170, h3 damage buff), and also affecting the abilities you can run on Pencil
    By increasing the hp of Bubble via buffing the weak spots, the more it’s used, the more you will likely need more high object damage weapons to be able to deal with it. And if that’s not the case you’ll need to run Object Shredder. Which THEREFORE due to its horrid object damage, causes a Pencil to either have to run Object Shredder and replace one of its mains of SCU/SPU which then causes you to need to change your abilities around, OR you have to run a different weapon that has higher object damage to make up for it

    Just a correction, they reduce the special to Sploosh-o-matic not Splash-o-matic.

    A good conclusion if you ask me, it's a step in the next direction, though incredibly little. I honestly have my doubts that they're going to be doing anything too influential though.

    This patch has killed my loss streak and made me love Sploosh again. I missed being a lil rat so much. I know Sploosh is not what everyone is talking about, but this is probably my favorite patch so far

    I mean, not really. It's still an invincibile Super Jump spot. If people see you don't have the Clam Ball, you could try to pull a trick by distracting with the holder of the ball. Get close, activate Kraken, then have your distraction with the Clam Ball super jump to you. This definitely requires more skill, but I thunk this will honestly make Kraken cheese better. Now you can have multiple people jump to the basket while not having to give up any of Kraken's offensive playstyle. Basically this change while requiring better coordination, gave more freedom to Kraken cheese.

    Generally good patch. I’m worried that sploosh buff will make it even more of a rat weapon in solo q but otherwise solid. Undertow Pole incoming

  • @abra_escaped
    @abra_escaped Před 2 měsíci

    As a casual I like this patch. No more kraken cheese, less op special spamming, and some little buffs to a lot of weaker weapons which I happen to enjoy playing! Finally played h3 for one of the first times in the whole series and had a lot of fun with it, and I'm eager to see how the nova accuracy buff pans out. Splashdown radius nerf is nice to see because I'm not good enough to shoot it down and it's pretty hard to run away from it a lot of the time

  • @0utlaw2048
    @0utlaw2048 Před 2 měsíci

    Just a quick question to anyone who knows but is hydra splatling good in competitive play?
    I'm currently rank -A & Im pretty decent with it but I still face the same problems with close combat. I was just wondering if it fits the meta.

    • @freuner-merris
      @freuner-merris Před 2 měsíci +1

      From what I've heard, Hydra's never really been viable in competitive partly due to its slow charge speed. If it's displaced (by a bomb or a special or whatnot) whilst charging it can mess it up. But perhaps more importantly, it struggles against weapons such as chargers which can outrange it, Pencil being one such weapon. Of course, if you just play solo-queue, whether your weapon's good in competitive doesn't matter so much, especially since you won't always be going up against optimized comps that can counter you.
      Also, I'm no backline player, but if you're facing problems with close combat you might be mispositioning. Fixing your problem with that may be less of a matter of "git gud at close combat" and more a matter of making sure you dispatch enemies before they have a chance to get close, or being somewhere that makes it difficult for them to get close.

      Thank you for the help. I honestly been kinda back & forth with this weapon cuz I sometimes feel like I need to be everywhere to help my team but at the cost of sometimes being in a bad position.
      Didn't really know that positioning was this important to this weapon till now so thank you.

  • @auburncrescent

    “Kraken cheese is dead”
    Yeahhh a post I saw on Twitter says otherwise, one could pop Kraken at the basket and then swim away while the rest of the team can jump into where the Kraken was popped and still score like that
    Definitely nerfed from before since the Kraken player still needs to get in first before popping it, but it’s not dead. Should’ve made it so that clams and power clams drop after super jumping imo

    As an Blobblober main, why they didn t fixed again the inconsistent blob shot animation in close combat, sometimes you can shot the all 4 and other only 3 are shotted and hit the opponent. This s really annoying.

    You should revisit the predictions made in previous videos after the meta has a chance to pan out. Do this in future videos.
    I don't just mean talk about the same stuff, like "oh, splatershot is still meta," visit the predictions specifically -- "previously I said X, and here's what's happened since then."
    Alternatively, just do an overview video on the effects of buffs and nerfs for the last few updates. How much *does* increasing or decreasing a special by 10 points affect the kit's playability?

  • @Pearl_Blossom
    @Pearl_Blossom Před 2 měsíci

    As nice as it is that they finally nerfed Pencil, one thing I haven't seen many people mention is that they didn't undo 6.1's PPS nerfs to Tri Nouveau or Heavy Edit (or gray Zap but Zap deserves 200p honestly)
    So even though Pencil has less Cooler output than before, it still has the best Cooler output out of all the Cooler weapons that don't have severe main weapon issues

  • @Onyxs
    @Onyxs Před 2 měsíci

    If they take out reef zone cap then they have to do SOME sort of major buff to it, because without the zone cap ability that special is completely and utterly useless in every way. Right now though, Nintendo has abandoned that special for Splashdown and it shows. They just don’t care anymore.
