    The algorithm seems to be really pushing this one and that's a great sign. Vids like this are a great showcase of what competitive Splatoon is like and how hype it is... and the algorithm being a fan should mean a lot of people start getting a taste.

      SettoDestroyX had been on an almost undefeated streak of tournaments for about 8 months. They were by far the best team in the West and arguably in the world. Legacy, although they had players from strong teams, were a heavy underdog for this set. When the commentators say "this is the biggest upset in Splatoon 2 history" they meant it. I don't know if any others can quite live up to this.

      This was the first LAN back after COVID, so it was a massive tournament to see how the landscape had changed.
      FTWin had been uncontested champions for years. There were some issues with travel restrictions, so some of them couldn’t end up going, but some of the main players like Kyo and Biscuit still did.
      Starburst had always been in the running but never quite got to the top. Especially players like Ice had been at the top and were veterans, but it seemed like they hadn’t found their groove and won anything in a while.
      Starburst brought out some CRAZY compositions that absolutely changed the meta, including an ABSURD silver aerospray pick in GAME 5 (a weapon with very low viability at the highest level, at least that’s how it was seen).
      It was an upset. It was a stacked tournament. It was the first in a long time. And the kings had been dethroned as one of the most boring strategic (pulling the rainmaker back to base) moments had people shouting and screaming. It was incredible live. Starburst had turned it around.

      In competition, squidbags are moreso for the camera or meant to be a popoff rather than harmful taunting. There’s plenty more that can be done that would be really disrespectful, like taking a “drip pic” while the match is still going on.

      (I’ll probably make a video showing these off at some point but) the team all stops what they’re doing, goes to the same spot in the map, stands together facing one direction, sometimes even posing, and then use the screen capture.
