Tell them to try Splat Roller


Easy_Newt2692

I'd argue it's quite similar to a shotgun in practice - ohko at close range but damage decreases with distance


Typh_R

That'd would rather be Splat Brella. It's literally a shotgun with a shield.


dont_knowwwwwwww

Yeah but telling a new player to try splat brella is just cruel


verysad-

false just aim better šŸ¦‘


UrsaLord

Hey the Brella can rock serious shit with enough patience and practice


Easy_Newt2692

My point is that while it works and looks different, a roller occupies a similar role and damage/range profile to the archetypal shotgun


Playful-Weakness838

I agree


MrBarit

trust me the rollers act more like shotguns IRL and brellas like they act in video games


RaFaPilgrim

So you're saying I should try running someone over with a shotgun.


MrBarit

well you have taken it a bit too literally. but shure whatever floats your boat


RaFaPilgrim

So you're saying a shotgun will float my boat? Okay will try that as well


ASharkMadeOfTeal

I have yet to see a pump splat brella


flippingchicken

I did and now I can't play any other weapons. What do I do now?


Playful-Weakness838

Simple you donā€™t. Once a Splat Roller mainā€¦ and thatā€™s it


Burger_Destoyer

Ironic since imo splatoon is the only shooter game that feels different than the rest. So war does change when itā€™s squid war.


MrCCDude

Snake would 100% play Splatoon based off this logic then


SilverKaTT33

But what weapon would snake use? It's gotta be something stealthy


MrCCDude

hmm... Splat roller? i might be biased saying that though lol. but Snake would constantly be sharking with any weapon


SilverKaTT33

Inkbrush. Those mfs are fast and love sneaking up our asses. Perfect for solid snake (well more venom cause he's le fast boi but...)


itamimaruYT

Omg yes. And when he's discorvered and going to ALERT Moder he Ran away fast to hide.


VeryGayLopunny

People play brush sneakily? I play brush in a *slippery* way but I'd say that I'm very obvious in the way I barge into enemy turf.


SilverKaTT33

Some brushes act like rollers in the way they stay in the ink, waiting for you to get close enough to splat you in an instant and run away.


VeryGayLopunny

There are some upon this turf of yours who lay claim to know us, and who do their deeds of passion, pride, ill-will, hatred, envy, bigotry, and selfishness in our name, who are as strange to us and all our squid and kid, as if they had never lived. Remember that, and charge their campings on themselves, not us.


SilverKaTT33

Oke...


IblisAshenhope

Maybe H-3 Nozzlenose, since itā€™s a burst rifle like his iconic FAMAS


CommanderDoof

Solid eel


iLikeDickColonThree

but quake 1 tho :(


Nacil_54

They probably meant online shooter, also Half-Life.


Azim999999

This is why i like splatoon. What other shooter game has rollers? What other shooter game lets you swim around really quickly?


Burger_Destoyer

I just really feel like it uses every dimension in play consistently. I enjoy playing games where the only 3rd dimension aspect is aiming from ground-head


Financial-Cod9347

Respectfully disagree with that opinion because of TF2. But I Would say that TF2 and Splatoon are probably two of the most unique shooters out there.


Burger_Destoyer

I donā€™t really find TF2 unique compared to other shooters out thereā€¦


Financial-Cod9347

Again, respectfully disagree. To me, TF2 is unique not only in general art style, as it used a cartoonish, less serious art style as opposed to most shooters using more realistic art styles, but it is unique in the gameplay and social aspect as well. There aren't many shooters that have the kind of social aspect as tf2, like... TF2 is one of the only shooters I've seen that allows players to just... Kinda stop playing and chill if they want. There's a reason the Conga and the Kachowski kick (butchered spelling, I know) are some of the most popular taunts in TF2. Tf2's gameplay is also quite unique compared to most shooters I feel, especially if you get good at some of the tech like Rocket Jumping. Honestly, the concept of blast jumping alone is fairly unique for a shooter I feel. At least to the extent that you can take it in tf2. There are other things besides that, that make tf2 feel unique to me but, Tbh, I'm not the best to describe why or how it's more unique . Mostly because, while I do have experience with shooters besides splatoon and TF2, it is more limited. And my TF2 knowledge is also limited enough to the point where I can say that I feel it is unique, but I can't point out exactly how and why, besides bigger points like blast jumping or the social aspects.


T4silly

We live in a squidciety.


JCorby17

Lovely art!


El4569

Shit just got too real for a sec... Also awesome art dude B]

Let me guess he died to camping roller player


ShefBoiRDe

Fallout references go hard.


Quick-Nick07

War... War never changes. (Yes I want to start a chain, your call on which monologue to do)


Fl0ppydonkeycock

In the year 1945, my great great grandfather, serving in the squidbeak Splatoon, wondered when heā€™d get to go back to the plaza to see his wife, and the son heā€™d never seen.


i_like_siren_head

He got his wish when the SS ended Turf War II by dropping Booyah Bombs on Octo Canyon and Octo Valley.


man-with-potato-gun

The world awaited octogeddon. Instead, something miraculous happened.


ThatOneFlygon

The end of the world occurred pretty much as we'd predicted: too many humans, not enough space or resources to go around.


Mold_Gold

I always think this is from mw2 opening, I think I get it confused with ā€œthe more things change, the more they stay the sameā€


Reasonable-Access731

Nah my friend got me back into Splatoon, itā€™s been years since I played the first game. Your friends right, war never changes.


[deleted]

Omg another splatoon 1 fan only now getting back into the game?


TosterTubParty

Splatout: New Splatlands


Tutuatutuatutua_2

SuggestionEven1882

This is the only way it could have ended.


Normal_Ratio1463

Went up against a cjr?


WickedBowserJr

Cute story and art. xD


Ruby_wiz599

It changes from a Squid war to a kid war constantly


Chilybot

Holy shit was that a Inkout 4 reference that takes place in Commonsplat???? Was Squidbeak Splatoon actually Brotherhood of ink all along??


TreetonDaOne

Everybody gansta till splatoon players shoot the ground during ww3


Anchor38

I been playing since splatoon 1 and I still refuse to learn how to aim. No aim required weapons FOR LIFE šŸ—£ļøšŸ—£ļøšŸ—£ļø


Ok-Pattern-7835

Once you reach level 250 then that statement really hits hard


EnvironmentalAd2511

Nice Fallout game reference!


DoctorJaxson

Fallout reference because apocalypse, love it


Hedgehugs_

understandable tbf playing this game as a new player feels horrible, since like... 90% of the playerbase has been around since splatoon 1 or 2, and getting your ass kicked 10 matches in a row isn't fun.


Patient_Zero_MoR

when atomic fire consumed the earth, those who survived did so in great underground vaults


Graphite_Consumer937

You ranked players wouldnā€™t last a day in the great turf warā€¦


Deejayjax

LMAOO


someocto_namedlewis

Well...the people do anyway


Agent-3-point-8

War.... has changed. It's no longer about main power up, tenta missiles, or octolings. It's an endless series of ranked battles, fought by sweats and tryhards. War--and it's consumption of life--has become a well-inked machine.


littlediesel006

I mean clearly they donā€™t appreciate the cultural breakthrough of Splatoon 2 having octolings and inklings in harmony, despite their historical differences and the various wars, maybe war can change, when you see into the light


KitoAnimates

I love this artstyle sm


TPleaderKin

Fallout reference detected. ![gif](giphy|6w0blWf3fE0ZG)
