Splatoon

[PastelOctoling]

I've been playing for a while and it's basically everything I've dreamed about. I actually don't mind losing because I'm having so much fun.

 

[Baron Rider]

I'll see you on the Dark Side of the Dualie.

Spoiler

Prior to Goby Arena being added, the devs will be unveiling another thing that's sure to be a slam dunk! The Dark Tetra Dualies bring up another retribution in the term "speed is the key". Alongside the Autobomb with its sub, its special is the Splashdown. Y'know, so you can tell the opposition when dodge rolling won't do! Glowing decals sold separately.

Post RNG too strong

Spoiler

 

[PastelOctoling]

Oh hey, I saw the 'I'm the strongest' and 'Have a food ticket' posts in my plaza earlier!

(also I need to upload some of the posts I've found, because they're doozies.)

 

[HiroProtagonest]

Dammit I missed ONE screenshot for this conversation.

What the fuck is this

Spoiler

Pearl: "Wait, uh- which side was I on again? I'm so confused!"

 

[Baron Rider]

Let me guess... Europe?

 

[HiroProtagonest]

I don't have a European copy.

I'm picking Egg because
1. I like eating them more
2. Technically correct, the best kind of correct

 

[PastelOctoling]

Well, that got dark fast. Jesus, Marina.

 

[Baron Rider]

I don't have a European copy.

No, am I asking is this the next American splatfest or is this European?

 

[PastelOctoling]

No, am I asking is this the next American splatfest or is this European?

Both.

 

[Baron Rider]

Fried chicken will always beat hard-boiled eggs any day. I'm going with Pearl on this one.

 

[PastelOctoling]

I do like chicken but I'm going with Team Egg because the color they picked is so nice to look at.

 

[missingno]

The egg came first. Laid by an animal that was not a chicken. Duh.

 

[HiroProtagonest]

Oh, it's the EU one too? This is a really important splatfest then. Or they couldn't think of another one. Or it's rigged so each side wins once, leaving it undecided.

But eggs are clearly superior. The infinity stones are eggs. :^)

You actually missed one more...

 

[Baron Rider]

Speaking of unknown Splatfests...

The Japanese Splatfest for March was "What would you like to receive as a gift: Flowers or Dumplings?" Just goes to show how stupid these petty competitions can be.

 

[PastelOctoling]

Ok I know the quality's bad but here's my Inkling.

Well that was a nice kill for me. Also are doing squid pics? cause I can dig some up.

 

[HiroProtagonest]

Octolings.

Edit:

Edit 2: Should add the best-quality official Nintendo one

 

[missingno]

hell fucking yes

 

[YoYoCheese]

Playable Octolings is all I've ever wanted. Thank you, Nintendo, for this gift!

 

[Cyberbeta]

Urgh...really need to get a switch & this game now!

 

[HiroProtagonest]

Male octolings confirmed to exist. But... maybe not naturally-occurring...

Spoiler

For the record, octolings are named after Amazons in Japanese.

Also, Callie confirmed (not in the Octo trailer, there's also v3.0 with 100 more things to worry about in fashion). So DDB's crusade is over... he probably won't stop the drawings.

 

[PastelOctoling]

When playable Octolings? Playable Octolings now!

(Bonus points if you get the reference.)

 

[PastelOctoling]

Oh yeah and the Off the Hook Amiibo 2 pack hits stores on July 13th.

 

[CullenA]

Spoiler

 

[HiroProtagonest]

That's a Smash meme dammit

...Also I just realized why the Octo trailer evoked the 80s. Subtle enough that it flew under the radar of the more obvious "Agent 8" and "80 missions."

 

[Baron Rider]

Makes perfect sense! After all, I think Marina just betrayed her Octoling kind.

 

[HeadcrabNinja]

being able to unlock Callie in my HUB has finally made me start my ranked grind journey, i'm scared

 

[TheGoggledGamer]

Spoiler: Octoboys are also super cute

 

[PastelOctoling]

I love them.

 

[Baron Rider]

Wait... do their ink change color? By playable, do you mean available in Turf Wars?

 

[PastelOctoling]

Wait... do their ink change color? By playable, do you mean available in Turf Wars?

I would assume so.

 

[HiroProtagonest]

I used to think inklings had hips.

Spoiler

Clearly I was wrong.

Spoiler

Oh and seeing that official picture, I hope octo boys don't have smaller hurtboxes.

 

[Jutsei]

Jesus Christ

 

[HiroProtagonest]

To be fair: still not Squigly.

Spoiler

Squigly definitely creeps me out.

How does she have the thinnest hurtbox

 

[Ruin]

squigly actually has normal hips the rest of her is just skin and bones

 

[HeadcrabNinja]

man don't even get me started on that one pose Marina does in the trailer for a second because wow, made me sweat :y

 

[missingno]

Spoiler: Dear lord

 

[HeadcrabNinja]

are you trying to send me to the hospital
