Oh no don’t mention tests around the splatoon community! We all know they can’t pass tests to save their life.
Thanks for the info... for the longest time I've been stuck and B rank. I kept saying I sucked and my friends who played splatoon didn't say I'm a good player or bad player, they just kepr giving me meh tips.
I don’t know if you have made a video about players directly not playing the game in ranked mode but I’ve seen it on my team and the opposing team where they just sit there at the base- giving up. If you have a video about that I’d like to see it. If not I’d like for you to address it since it’s become frustratingly more common. 4-10 matches I played this morning were like this. Why?? If you’re not going to play then maybe just do Turf? Or just log off idk..
Your last point was recently disproven by the now (very well) known Japanese video where they found out how it's possible to snipe someone behind a wall. It's possible because the game does movement prediction on the host, so even if you stop moving just before being exposed, the host assumes that you kept moving in that direction and you actually appear in the host's reticle despite not actually having moved there. This is then visually corrected back as soon as the host gets the next movement update, but being splatted still counts (despite being a bug). This is also the reason for janky movement when going near the edge of an elevation because the host initially assumes that you dropped down the edge even if you did not. Both happens regardless of the connection (LAN, WLAN, and couch co-op connection). So yeah, Splatoon 3's networking architecture (i.e. p2p) simply sucks and the developers came up with buggy workarounds to help with its inherent lag, which causes these kinds of inacceptible problems.
as a wiper main: yes please don't shoot the torp as often! good advice! (proceeds to torp combo you)
Is everything okay it’s been a while… (has there been any more info I don’t know if anything changed or whatever)
SA allegations, the whole thing is going to court, so neither side wants to post anything online in the meantime I think
It’s so bad it gives it massive charm.
"But You refused"
That aged well
Great video, I really enjoyed it
The only part i hate is when people never use the map other than super jumps....
I saw this video when it came out and im now back after finally beating dark souls to watch the dark souls section and i agree with a lot of points so thanks squid school for getting into dark souls
This video is definitely going to be tough to listen to for some people, even if you’re not super into competitive Splatoon, this is super sound advice for literally *everyone* on the planet who wants to be better at something. If there is an easier, faster way of doing / learning something without any major downsides, take it, it isn’t cheating! For anyone who likes art, or wants to work as an artist full time, a good portion of your time wont be used *making* art, it’ll be spent studying, looking at portfolios, finding reference materials, reaching out and forming networks. The main reason the modern art scene is so insanely diverse nowadays is that *no-one* who makes it as an artist, is doing so alone. You will make very slow progress just drawing over, and over again, beyond improving your muscle memory and learning whether you enjoy the process.
Man, was i looking forward to final fest with Gem. I hope this isnt true man
…and so much for the new quality audio
How are your colors so seeable
I never will fall to this kinda skill...
Nice video as always 👍
Dang dude! That’s actually a really good idea!
I’m shocked more people haven’t commented here after the recent events and hiatus of the creators if u know what I mean.
I dont think I ever fell into the "My gear is making me lose" mindset, but it was definitely a point of a lack of confidence in my gameplay. I felt bad that I don't have good gear and that I'm not spending enough time on the game to grind out that stuff, but this video helped me realize that its not as important as I thought it was and it's not a bad mark against my "skill" or "dedication"
all the "dating advice" videos u did feel so dark now
I don't understand the point when you talk about Swiss and needing many setups, I mean I understand the many setups point, but that applies to any tournament format? Sure while 1v5 and 2v6 play 3,7,4,8 have to wait for them to finish to start their match and then vice versa but for example a double elimination bracket in the same setting could also only have two matches at the same time and the other players waiting for those to finish?
"Don't Retreat!" from the allegations, Gem
real
I think it's natural to want to jump off by default, because the assumption is that there'd be fall acceleration. By jumping before you reach the ledge, you could already be accelerating downwards by the time you've gone over the ledge. But in reality, there's not really any fall acceleration in Splatoon, so it's a great habit to break.

over a month, damn that shit means its serious, hope its not true man.
17:10 I'm sorry, I just find it hilarious that the way this is described makes it sound like a ridiculous anime plotline to me. Like, you reach the top 1% and try to apply yourself in a tournament, only to find yourself among the worst of the best and have to start a training arc and climb to the top again to beat your new nemeses.
were is bro at he has been gone for a month now
His running from the allegations
@@KatPG3D what allegations
@@TMPGrub03he did some bad stuff, really bad stuff
@@giganticmoon wow i did not know of this. Could you tell me what he did
@@KatPG3DHe’s actually settling this legally. He’s actually running from the court of twitter, because he knows that there’s no way his tweet will get more likes than the accusers.
Sounds like someone lost to a Japanese 5 year old and doesn't want to admit it
This is so good You just made me understand how these tournament formats work and the best format to implement in organizing tournaments 😊
The most annoying strategy I see brushes do (on turf war) is run into the opposite base and start painting a bunch. It always just feels like a sub optimal play.
The person on our team who has the rainmaker running backwards in overtime while 3/4 of the enemy team is dead:
I remember watching this video when I first started playing splatoon. Ty for all the helpful tips over the years, even though I’m only A rank
Can you reupload this for the grandfest?
The manga is so bad but so good at the same time I swear
Yeah this doesn't work when the rest of your team is still giving up
Hi squid school, I hope you come back eventually. I love your videos and find I kinda just stopped watching splatoon content the second you stopped uploading.
He stopped uploading because he got into pretty serious allegations about SA
As someone who played overwatch competitively for like 5 years as a healer this really helped me understand that the same kind of “support” role doesn’t really exist here
Itsh a shreame that the Olympics have made so many controversies lately compared to past years…, personally i wont be following the olympics (not that i ever did lol) but i sure know that (excluding the athletes, at leashtre MOST of threm) i wont be giving my shreympathies to the organizers. Good luck to this guy though he sure looks like a pretty great fella. 👍
Tbh, the wrong play from the Luna ishre to jump back, the wrong play from the Inkbrush is to jushtre shrite there in srewpawn defending. To makre an analogy with OoT (at leashtre i think that was the game?) speedrunning, there ishre a shtreate involvingrkrtrerdzszhlkjrtreghrtrdzszh RNG, and ON AVERAGE, ud do thishre shtreate until it worked, but, shrince itshre RNG, it could caushre you to have to do it over and over again, even when youre behind on time, shreimply because the odds of it working are more favorable for you than against you, including the potential time-save, in other wordshklrtrerdzszh, ashre the luna player, id rather commit to the play, cuzreh, eventrtyueally, the other guyshre gotta realize what were doing, and grem also jumped in to askhre for a jump, and then the jump eventrueaylly came and worked out pretty fine, HOWEVER ill add, that if the Slosher was actyually chrecking properly (smhtrehing that the Luna couldnt posshiblrey have other known), i if i washre as the luna, i wouldhve tried splatting him, while prainting their bashre and then hide somewhere elshre to get more value from the play, cuz the optreimal way here for the enemy tream washre to jushtre go back and chreck for the luna (properly) meaning that the luna optimal play turns into committing to the play since, well, if that washntre the optimal play for luna, the team wouldnt have bothered going back to chreck it lol. TL,DR: In OoT speedrunning, theresh a strat involving RNG, and u do it over and over again until it worksh, cuz the odds are streacked in ur favor more than againshtre, even when youre on a time loss having lost a lot of treime trying to do it lol (yeshre this actreyually happened to a guy who washrewqp on WR pace i believe), and at the shreame time, that meanshre that if i washre the luna i wouldve shtreuck to the play until the brush finally decided to jreump in (or my bashkret getting broken or the brush dying while drefending), cuz, bashreically, mathematically shpreaking, the luna jump-in play has a better risk-reward to it, at least, like i said, until the clam ball player dieshre. So, bashriceally, even if the brush player doeshntre IMMEDIATELY jump in, the play strayshre valuable for a long period of time (unless the brush dieshre andzszhkrtreortrdzszh / ore u lroseshre all clam ballsdzszh, ofc), the only difference is that in the OoT speedrunning cashre, the strat alwayshre stays valuable, even in the rare cashre where you keep loshreing indefinitely time to it over and over again lol. BUT, however ill agree that the worshtre play is definitely for the brush to never jump back in, but again like ive shreaid, itsh worth to stay for the luna and only cut your losshresh when theresh nothing more to gain from it shreeing as youve lost ur clam ball, but until then, yet again, id rather committ to it lol.
If anyone happens upon this video in the future, he actually won bronze in the event! The olympic record was set in the race and Nuguse passed the defending gold medalist in the final 100 meters to make it to the podium!
I dunno what it is but I’ve gotten above 2000XP and now I’ve been getting sometimes top players in my lobby who will give up like two minutes into the game and sabotage the match. It’s not even a one time thing, it keeps happening, and then afterward I see their banner and it has a top 250 badge and I’m like ??? How, and, Tf is wrong with these people 🤣
I recently watched a Japanese person do a analysis of the delay that the other person sees, and they had one person as a charger, tested with and without Ethernet, etc. the game is constantly estimating where you are. A clear example is when someone is at the edge of a ledge and sometimes you see them fall off but then they’re back on the top a frame later; the game is guessing whether you’ll actually be jumping down or not. So I understand Gem’s point here, but respectfully, as someone who’s been playing since the first game, sometimes you literally do get shot through a wall. I will be well away from any place the charger can see me for a solid second and still die. It’s just how the game and its terrible connection works. Anyone who played it on WiiU knows how much worse it was then.

Competitive players ARE playing Turf War these days. That's why it's hard for non-competitive players; those that just want to have a good time without getting sweaty, to play the mode without getting spawn-camped or totally curb-stomped. Splat 3 is honestly hard to play anymore without getting wrecked by the sweaty players in nearly every match.
So I was trying to defend the zone, and push my teammates to go to enemy base, but no matter what I did, they remained unnaturally static and stuck at home base. Is there a way I can push my team besides preasing "this way"?
This often results in a loss even when I try my hardest
I paid for the game, I'll play how I want.
my weapons range is shorter than a clash blasters range though
I’m -3500 the game is depressing why remove deranking ?? If I’m losing so many games is a sign something wrong. Clearly not good enough
