e: And that's another round of translating. All the stuff I seem to get characterises Marina as some pure, innocent goddess and Pearl as her blushing, screaming straight-man. Who constantly utters the refrain 'You're not going to turn me into a lesbian, you're not going to turn me into a lesbian' like it's a Sutra under her breath.

Haven't seen much western stuff, though. Presume Marina's enormously sarcastic?

Western Marina is sassy. She lays down some downright brutal sass on Pearl for acting childish in most of the map-rotation comments.

Marina basically treats Pearl like her little sister. They obviously like each other but Marina berates Pearl a lot for acting childish. Sometimes she is just a flat out jerk trying to annoy Pearl for kicks.

So does a brella shield work against a slosher going over it? I kept on killing brella users too fast to find out. :(

My disdain for you all knows no bounds.
If you're hitting the shield head on, it'll block the shot. However, you can just aim upwards if you're close enough to them. Even then, the shield isn't invincible, since enough ink on it will force it to go away.

Also don't get too close to an umbrella user, since the umbrella can perform a very quick 3 hit kill if they're right next to their target. The initial shots themselves, and the umbrella popping out will deal enough damage to splat someone.

You can use the recently played with feature from within the Switch OS to ban users like that so you won't get matched up with them again.

There's actually another and probably better option: Go to SplatNet 2, choose the match in question and select the bad apple. There is an option to report said player for bad behaviour to the authorities. No point in letting bad squids go unpunished.

I dunno, I just play it like regular Turf Wars. It's good practice for Splat Zones, because you learn methods in how to take over the middle section. Don't try to solo your way through, but rather keep your distance until you have some backup with you.

The amount of times I see teammates charging solo into a splatzone occupied by the enemy team and dying promptly and then doing the same thing over and over :allears:

Weapon report: The Splat Brella is good. Insanely good. It's even better at turfing than the Aerospray. The shield function is great against chargers who like to think they're fresh, just let it fly and you can get close enough to rain on the cheeky squid. It can even withstand a direct hit from an Ink Jet.

This will certainly see more use. Will have to see how it'll fare in ranked battles, but so far this is promising.

It's a quick tool to ink areas, so you don't have to be there to fill your special meter. It can also be used to distract opponents, since it is a bit of a nuisance.

You can also splat with it, but that's a rare occurrence.

You do that and hide so when an enemy comes to shoot it you pop out and splat them.

Also the sprinklers are considered the same as you inking turf, so your score and special bar will fill over time as well (until there's no more area to ink)

I had a long day yesterday, so I kinda... snapped at yet another useless charger hanging back waaay in our territory and refusing to actually go out and, ya know, BE USEFUL?

So... I spent the last minute of the match trying to annoy him. First I swam around him squidding repeatedly. Then I got right in front of him and mashed the brush button in his face (I was an Octobrush) until I ran out of ink. Then I recharged my ink and did it again. Then the last 10 seconds I just followed him spamming "BOOYAH" constantly.

He was still in the next, several, of my matches, doing the exact same thing.

Just quit the lobby and then get into a battle again to scramble who gets into the room instead of getting that mad at people being bad at the game. Or take a break from the game if you're resorting to doing things like that.

I love the Brella so far. I don't know if it's because it's new and people aren't used to it yet, but I was consistently getting 1000+ points per game. I don't feel like there's any sacrifice of coverage, coming from a roller. But I still kind of sucked at splatting/defending with it, so there's a lot of room for practice.

Also with my username, it kind of feels like destiny.
