H3D does really well for TC but I’m going to favour the vanilla variant being a lot easier to use and get mileage out of in most cases.

Doing good lately, I haven’t been on Splatoon 3 in 6 months because I had lost my Switch so I had to hold off on that. In this time frame, I think it was very well possible that I would’ve reached top 500 in Rainmaker if I had kept going. I go into a little more detail in my recent post in the community tab.

Spacing is a big part of how this weapon is used. Using its AoE hit box is really good for area denial and being able to challenge the tower with ease. Toxic mist can help you set up yourself to punish opponents on the tower, rushing at you, or make them move slower to get them. Ink Vac helps out in giving you a secondary defensive option to protect yourself in some CQC situations and can allow you to challenge some back lines. You are mostly going to add pressure from afar to aid your allies more than anything and if you’re in a good position to defend, use its range/AoE to your advantage. Be careful about being rushed down though, so bring lots of swim speed/QSJ to help out yourself to escape those situations if need be. This’ll give you some idea to properly use it but I’m not the greatest in making this absolutely shine. So keep practicing with the weapon if you lose, you don’t reach greatness in one day with it. 🙂

Thank you! As for this, I do have some long form content you can watch with my H3. I have lots to showcase but I’m not as active as I used to be because of my job currently, that had taken a lot of my time. Plus I had lost my Switch too when I moved, so I’m stuck at the moment using the footage I already have for the meantime.

@@BlueRiptor Damn, thats unfortunate. I’m sorry to hear that, but once you get a Switch again I’d love to see what else you do!

@ I appreciate it, it’ll be amazing once I get back in the future to Splatoon, don’t you worry about it! It’ll be bigger and better than ever!

@ Hell yeah! :)

@@PassTheMic2006 And feel free to check out my Undercover/Splat Brella and 3 H3/H3D compilation videos too, they’re really enjoyable.

It was amazing I tell you!

It’s one of the major buffs that I’ve been wanting for a long time now, now I wouldn’t need to run the main of main saver as much, and change it probably 2-3 subs instead which opens up more options. Which is great! Woohoo!

Thank you! I miss my H3 a lot and it’s super satisfying to play.

It is! It feels like yesterday since I showcased it. The other thing I’ll add is this game had so much potential too with the devs adding a lot into the game in the short amount of time. Plus they could add a lot of cool stuff if it had stuck around.

Thank you! I have fun with the weapon whenever I use it, there’s still more to do later on.

I’m not entirely sure sadly.

I always thought H3 really likes hyper offense and backless comps. It also really likes weapons that can take advantage of angles/AoE damage because of point sensor. H3 is the midline 3 shot kill weapon I really like and it does a lot of what I want in a weapon with a few of its downsides.

@@BlueRiptor I see. I could see why Hyper aggressive comps would work, since H3 is generally a slower weapon

Thank you! I’ve been missing my H3 a lot lately but once I find my Switch, the clips on it are amazing to use for the third compilation. So I’m using the older footage I have to kinda fill the gap in content with CA/Splatoon right now because I don’t have a gaming laptop to make footage while I work when my computer that has everything is at home.

It was amazing I tell you, I love getting games like these.

I’m hoping for its revival one day or another project takes form.

I remember you! You had the Splatana Stamper while I was using the H3 in Tower Control. If you check out my H3/H3D compilation that’s on the page of my channel, you’ll actually manage to see yourself within the video. Once again, thank you!

It absolutely would be, I can feel your pain in not being able to try it. I’m hoping one day we’ll have another fan made CA project. So I’m making the most out the time that I have in Classic because there’s not much going on in Reloaded.

@@BlueRiptor yeah I noticed reloaded was pretty empty - at least Classic has a great chunk of lobbies still (and am glad I was able to rank transfer over my old rank). But yeah hopefully there could be another down the road. This project seemed to have so much heart and soul put into it

@@Smurfson Classic has more people on it and Quarantine is still more playable too. Plus there’s other things in Classic that used to be in Reloaded. A couple things like Victory Lap being usable as Infected, Oathbound’s set effect giving what the old Swat/Steampunk/Bulletproof gave which allowed you to go through bullets at the cost of armor. This time, the only notable matchup for the Oathbound is the Auto-Turret, and is a very big one because the lack of counter play is what really ruined Reloaded’s Quarantine, and what lead it in a bad state for a long time. Since that the sets are not focusing on speed in Classic right now, I also feel that they’ll experiment with Fire Rate bonuses, and/or other effects just like what the Oathbound effect has which is the Torso Defense which gives the effect I explained above a bit. What I really hope for is extra range be given on a set effect, there’s lots to do if that ever happened. Last but not least, the devs from Reborn gave so much effort in the two patches than what Valofe did in months, and years because of the pure love/dedications towards the project. That’s part of the reason why it was taking off when it did.

I disagree with this because the real reason why all these Turrets and other explosives are stronger than they are is the lack of counter play towards Turrets especially. The game in the past had ways to deal with them which I’ve showcased it in the bulletproof ability and why it was so incredibly important to have in the mode. Another option that I’ve showcased were the Infected Turret which was a projectile to help with the area denial and other useful applications. Parting gift can potentially help being spammed by explosives too. I’m not a 100% of this but if Hawk’s Eyes increases Infected range then that’d also be really good but the major issue is that none of the abilities above work as Infected which was ultimately what lead us down this road in the first place. It was really important for Infected to have abilities and etc. to compete but for whatever reason, it’s gone. The other issue is the mindset of not being accepting towards these abilities as well.

I hope so too, there was a lot going for Reborn. I just play Classic to enjoy the game and hopefully have Valofe have interesting set effects.

might start playing ca again, i miss the ca movement but for now i quit ca after i lost my main with 2.1k hours wasted, times were fun but i wish i got to play more qr on my main while there still were players i knew, i wonder what happened to them.

@@lonely-Illusion I’ve been mostly on Classic because of my old main being hacked last year with no chance of it returning but now my new main is a lot better. Plus I still got more CA Classic stuff to release for the future.

Well done! It happens a lot when someone does well and then get hated for it.

It’s really good at canceling your cool down on the Tacticooler, this can help to make a longer push, attempt another retake, potentially use it as a shield/stalling option in some situations. This also works in other maps/modes that have moving parts that can remove Tacticooler.

I like the vanilla kit a lot more because point sensor is easier to use with Tacticooler and I find knowing where my opponents are to be very valuable.

I usually give the person of the benefit of the doubt because the peer to peer isn’t always reliable.

True. But because of the DC you did end up winning the series so i say it's a win win

The game is never ogre until game says game ogre. (I love Shrek). It really was because of the situations I was putting myself in.

I believe it’s the same method or you have to disconnect, and then you choose the name you want then it’ll show the name being available. I think there’s another video showcasing this a bit better, so check that one out as well. However, I’m not 100% certain if it still works but knowing Valofe it probably will still work.

A beautiful sight I tell you. Just love my H3, I’ve been missing it a bit lately since I haven’t played Splatoon for a while due to work but I’m getting back into the game soon, and reaching higher scores.

Absolutely, I’m still glad it’s on my H3, and seeing the special’s use in the competitive scene. Really like having it for solo play as well.

@@BlueRiptor SODA!

It was amazing because it was invincible to stall out the ink jet, this can also be used on other specials, subs, and main weapons to stall out engagements. Including the tower in TC.

Speaking of CA Reborn, I know at least one of the GMs has the files to Reborn, and they aren’t sure on what to do with them. This includes myself because I have the files as well on the computer. Months ago, there was another fan made project that was based on the 3.0 UI, and the project was scrapped because I think the owner was hacked, or something else but I think they were hacked though. The project was called CA Revolution. Judging at these former projects, there’s quite likely to be future fan-made projects for the future but I can’t say when it’ll happen. I have also made the suggestion as well to the GM in the Discord server that the Reborn files could be used once Reloaded/Classic ceases to exist so perhaps we can see another CA in the future after all. I still have a lot of Reloaded and some Classic footage I want to release for the future but I’ve been building myself so it’s been on hold because of that. Anyways, I know this is a bit of a text but that’s all I got for now.

I agree, I’ve used it for quite a while, and there’s still a bit of button mashing to a degree. Had it happen a few times in the past where my finger started hurting from the usage so I had to take a break from the weapon/game. Fire rate isn’t bad for H3 and I haven’t had too many issues with it recently because of the damage buff with object shredder helping it out. Plus the range feels great with the consistency it has.

Remember when we were waiting for Splatoon 3 to be released? Time flies I tell you. Speaking of that though, I want to share my experience on H3/Undercover soon in the community tab from over the time Splatoon 3 has been released.

Flashbacks and training. 🙂

This was back in 2022, so this was older footage I’ve saved.

I have a much bigger preference for the vanilla kit. The reasoning behind the decision is point sensor/tacticooler is a lot easier of a kit to use than splash wall/big bubbler. I put so much value in point sensor in knowing where my opponents are and my allies will benefit it as well. Being able to react to your opponents behind walls and be given crucial information is amazing. Tacticooler helps with H3’s issues to some degree with mobility, human error, and the buffs can be given to your allies as well. In some situations, you can use Tacticooler as a shield against some specials such as Tenta Missiles, Trizooka, and etc. this also includes weapons/subs. Now for H3D, it’s hard to use splash wall because you aren’t able to know where your opponents are at, and if you aren’t able to react to your opponents then splash wall will get less value from it. The recent nerfs with certain weapons wasn’t doing the sub any favors, plus bombs really counter the wall, and it’s not like the S1 counter part. My biggest issue with splash wall is that you can’t place it directly at your feet and it travels a select distance every time you use it. It feels so unrewarding to get splatted when you use splash wall right and get punished for it, this still includes big bubbler. As for Big Bubbler, it’s nice to protect key areas, and timing it right to win. However, it loses to a lot of specials, and there could’ve been a lot of potential with the special if it had been changed to the beacon hit box being larger to help protect yourself, another issue with the special I don’t like is that it won’t activate near edges, and it can affect you negatively when you need it. Another thing I really wished for is that if you leave the shield of big bubbler, you’re given a smaller bubbler to move around in to protect you from everything. This time though, it’s a lot weaker HP special compared to Big Bubbler, and you can be pushed back, and bombs can make contact with the bubbler, and explode. You could also transfer bubblers to allies so it creates some risk and depth to it. All in all, I do think H3D is in the middle of the road but it takes a lot of investment towards it, and so much more. H3 is much more easier to get mileage from and I don’t need to work as hard compared to H3D. I’d probably have a higher opinion of H3D if I was at the skill level of top 10 in NA/JP because I could use the kit a lot better, and make do of it. This still includes the vanilla kit too. I know this has been a lot but I wanted to give my thoughts on why I think H3 is better, and I personally think it’s better in high/top level than what others give it credit for.

@@BlueRiptor Thanks very much for your reply. I agree that H3 seems much smoother to use. The point sensor is a huge team benefit and tacticooler the same. It's a perfect blend of support/slayer.

@@Acrotronix No problem, always happy to chat around. Anyways, the vanilla H3 kit has felt better due to the ease of use of the kit, and always liked the support aspect of it. There are a few issues of the vanilla kit with its lack of fire power in taking space, point sensors not able to cover enough space in some situations, and such but I like it still.

H3 is built for assists!

Hm... I see. I have felt this weapon is incredibly under rated and under appreciated with all the advantages it has going for it with some disadvantages. I absolutely feel this weapon is still capable of being used in high/top level play because of what it brings to the table and despite the kit not being the greatest, the lot actually makes a lot of sense for H3’s role in competitive play. As for your weakness, it’s from the lack of practice with the weapon, and getting the muscle memory to aim a lot better. It’s not always going to be perfect but that’s okay, you just want the muscle memory with the stable hand, the more, and more you use this weapon the easier it becomes over time, and you don’t have to think about it that much. That’s a big part of how I can tell if you’ve used H3 a lot or haven’t due to how steady their aim is and being able to use it. I also showcased a bit of how I used it in many videos and have 2 compilations of really good moments with it, and will have a third one as well in the future. That’s also part of the reason I’ve made the two guides as well is to show the lack of information/guides to properly use the weapon/kit. The better and better I get in the future, the more accurate I can become in terms of information I can give. To give some reference, I play another game called Combat Arms Reloaded, and there’s a mode called Quarantine Regen, I’ve played that one mode for so long I can give a really solid answer of what you have to ask me. I’ve played over 10,000+ hours easily and showcased what it’s like to get good results.

​@@BlueRiptor thanks for your response ! I also believe in the potential of the H3 in pro matches. Indeed i must train a lot but 10 000 hours might not be necessary (I hope...). Your investissement is great to see, i will watch your others videos thank you. PS: Im not used to eng sry if there's mistakes

@@Bloups. No problem. That’s what I’m here for. No worries on English not being your first language. Keep practicing with the weapon and keep striving for greatness!

It does and a steady hand too. Sometimes I can’t aim despite using H3 a lot due to human error, not feeling up to the task, or something else affecting me.

I’ll give those abilities a go for the future with the weapon. I’ll estimate it’ll happen around 1-3 months before I’m able to do anything though which sucks a bit because I was wanting to make the videos relating to the new kits. For now, I still have the videos I can release here, and there that are unlisted.

No problem, I made it long ago to help out with how prevalent they became over time. Some of it is still applicable even to this day so don’t be afraid to experiment even more to find ways to deal with the sets that haven’t been mentioned in the video.

I agree, this game had immense potential. Right now, I’m currently unavailable in doing anything of the sort sadly mostly due to moving, and work reasons for the foreseeable future.
