Do the league battle medals do anything? It's probably my favorite way to play even though it's extremely difficult to actually play well against the ruthless lagging Japanese, but just curious if there is any reward beyond the thrill of battle.

Whenever I lose it's because everybody is a 9 year old who can't play their loving class but when I win Splatoon is mlg, high level, thinkies esports, hobby grade choice + epic!

I keep getting owned by people with ninja squid/people killing me while I'm swimming and the only gear that has that which appeals to me is the matcha down jacket but even that isn't super fresh Gear abilities probably only really matter in A/S ranks and league battle. Don't worry about it

If you're playing with someone who hasn't seen them before or doesn't understand the red laser they will inevitably accidentally walk them over your entire team

Nephzinho posted:How does League mode actually work? Haven't tried it yet, just peaked at the boards and saw its just straight japanese up top. Are there ranks? Do they just shoot medals out at the end of every 2 hour window? You have 2 hours to play a bunch of matches and after every game your League Power increases/decreases accordingly. At the end of the 2 hours they rank everyone and dole out medals based on your leaderboard placement. Its a lot of fun.

I only found out yesterday that the kill count is kills and assists, which was probably true in S1 and i never knew.

I mean the first number. They only show assists in the app

To clarify: the first number is kills + assists. The second is ult activations. I was just curious about the inflated number, you can see in the app battle records that the other team deaths never match the winning teams kill numbers, so it has to be including assists

Probably because rainmaker is the one that requires the most communication, since the objective is moveable by the players. Everybody can look at the tower or a splat zone and know whether they're loving up or winning

I wish they would just let people choose a ability load out instead of hiding them behind 9001 hours of gatcha grinding horseshit. It's the only part of these games I don't like and I thought they were changing it for 2 but they barely made it any better.

Internet Kraken posted:Yeah but what's the point of the bomb there? You can just hit them twice. That's one of the setups I took out on the test range and the bomb felt totally pointless cause using one wasn't any faster than just attacking again. It has more range than the slosher

Nephzinho posted:Any goons hit S rank and can speak to the competitiveness? Hitting A the idiots who play like turf war have almost died out - the few who have survived make up for their complete and utter lack of situational awareness with the ability to get lots of kills. I think ranked isn't going to be as ridiculously hard now that they have League mode to split out the single/squad queue. But I'm not S rank and I imagine d those who are are deadly

It's probably like 90% of those are people just leaving or getting in queue and then somebody calls or knocks on their door. And then 10% disconnects, although in countless hours in 1+2 at this point I've never had a unintentional drop happen to me
