r/Splatoon3

Me and my team all use handheld bc we like how the motion controls work better, surely we're not the only ones...

I played splatoon 3 2 years ago and now I want to grind again but idk if I should take Gyroscope or not

In like brinewater, lumeria and haggle, what’s the counterplay. the only time I lowk ever do well is with wellstring because of autobomb and the few times I use sorella. But idk

I've had the game for like three days after playing Raiders. Maybe it's just that I'm playing a 4 year old game for the first time? What can I do to get better? I know not to push in an impossible fight, but my team constantly gets wiped out. It feels like the matchmaking is working against me.

I'll start my favorite is inkblot art academy and my least favorite is bluefin depot

I only don't like bluefin because I genuinely believe that for the amount of times I've played on it I've only ever won 2 or 3 times and it's one of the maps I've played the most. Mahi Mahi sucks too imo but I barely play it

Inkblot is just fun for me and I like tower control there and I can use any weapon comfortably there

Also hot take lemuria hub is kinda overhated it's just really weird but I understand why people dont like it

I haven't played Splatoon 3 since launch and I have been thinking about getting back into it after playing Splatoon Raiders, but I'm worried that the players still playing will be OP now which will make it impossible to learn the game again.

Is that the case or is the game still welcoming to newcomers?

Kind of a vent, I have 60+ hours in splatoon 3 and it feels like im never getting better at it, I play overwatch and I feel like i actually stand a semi-decent chance in ranked, but in splatoon 3 ranked Ive won a total of like, 10 ranked matches across my entire career. I will join a game and then within 15 seconds the enemy team will have gotten 2 wipeouts and and pushed us back so far that we're confined to our spawn, and in rainmaker they end the game within 30 seconds every time and no matter how hard I try or practice I'm always completely helpless against any of it. Is everyone who plays ranked splatoon just that godly at the game? or do I really just suck that badly at it...

Like seriously whenever i say that i'm rightist people just yell ,,go play call of duty" and stuff like that. Like can't they understand that just because i don't see the game as a way to express myself and i don't believe in any of the queer headcanons i want to enjoy the game? I thought that it's made for everyone to play.

I just played 10 rounds and 7/10 ended in a draw because people backed out of a game. What’s the penalty for this? Whatever it is, it needs to be worse. I’m so sick of this happening it’s such a waste of time to get no points over and over again
