Also, does re-rolling gear give you ability chunks for what falls off?

I'm tired of hearing about money, money, money, money, money.
I just want to play the game, drink Pepsi, wear Reebok.

Are those splatfest results NA only? I thought they counted both NA and EU results together.

Either way, hurray! Mayo superiority!

I won't be able to play many games for eu fest today before it ends. I had a major losing streak before bed which probably didn't help Mayos chances. :(

The Splatfest in the UK is still ongoing, and will keep on going until 3 pm BST.

Matchmaking is slow as hell this morning. Also, 75 percent of my matches have been ketchup Vs ketchup. I also think it sucks you can't play with your friends like in a normal turf war

I don't see the Splatfest results in my app, are the NA ones in yet?

[Edit: ah, they're in-game. Kinda surprised, as the few matches I actually played against Mayo they got rolled. I guess there was a bunch of super good, super dedicated Mayo players in the 1700+ power ranks?]

My issues with teammates and ranked mode is weapon choice. C ranks have too many players using Aerosprays and chargers.

I wish that there was a little tooltip or something that popped up with recommending brushes/rollers/buckets for ranked, I don't think a lot of users coming from turf war realize that the weapons that get them to the top of their scoreboard in Turf War are garbage in Payload and CTF.

[Edit: that reminds me, I like game modes that are in here, but I wonder if there's any chance of Nintendo adding any Capture Point modes? I guess the maps and team sizes in Splatoon wouldn't work for 5CP or A/B->C maps like TF2 has but I feel like the Turf War strats people learn would actually carry over pretty nicely to a 3CP map]

Splat Zones was a Capture Point mode in S1 but they reduced a bunch of maps to 1 point so a lot of them are just KotH now

Also there are lots of Aerosprays and chargers in A rank :ssh:

It still wouldn't stop things like Chargers in Tower Mode, where they're doing absolutely nothing to help even if they're shooting Bad Guys off of the Tower. Eeither it's near the other team's goal and they won't go ride it to keep it progressing, or they'll just hidey-hole perch near your goal while successive Bad Guys keep the Tower going their way.
