...oh. I’ll give that a try!

It's really fiddly, even if Drizzler decides to shoot it towards you, positioning yourself properly can be a pain. And then your teammate might just shoot it off into distance to get rid of it. It's nice when it works but I feel like just shooting the Drizzler in his stupid face is far more consistent way to get rid of him, especially if someone is there helping you.

They're called stingers because they use the stingray.

This is your salmon



This is your salmon on eggs


Salmon eggs are delicious. Mix them with smetana and chopped red onions, spread on toast and grind some pepper on top. Or cover a boiled potato with it. My mother swears that they go well with gravlax but I personally feel that it should be eaten on ryebread, not with eggs.

I had that five times in a row last night. Got me to demotion. The wall trick is still pretty touch and go and with the way the salmonids act when you do it, is probably a bug.

There's no better feeling than narrowly pulling off a win in Salmon Run.

There's no worse feeling than immediately losing all the points from it to round 1 grillers.

** Lost Outpost Glowfly tip **

Stand on the square behind the bucket. (it's in front of a window)

Face away from the window.

Ink the wall to your left.

Whoever has glowflies will just keep climbing the inked wall (there's a rim so you can't jump over) while his/her partners splat all the salmonids under their position on the wall.

Salmons shouldn't push you out the window and they'll keep forming a group under that spot. They can't splat the person on the wall either.

Congrats, you just made glowflies on outpost easy as poo poo.

The best part of taking a week off from splatoon 2 is that low ranks aren't a free for all of players who are C-S rank.
People in A rank with me feel consistently like 3/4 star players, and that means climbing to S from this point shouldn't be hard.
