No joke, I once had a dream where I was in the game and I had gotten so fed up with flyfish I just threw my weapon aside and just punched a hole into the glass and ripped that little sh*t out of there and poped him like a baloon
Grizzco exsplosher my beloved, I adore being able to simply *kill* flyfish. No waiting. No aiming with wack projectile physics, you simply aim for the little dude in the middle and kill them.
He genuinely made and explained all the points I for why I hate Flyfish, for me. 1 too much damage 2 global range 3 highest ink required to kill 4 invincible 90% of the time 5 only consistent way to kill is with bombs or specific weapons/specials 6 teammates often don't target them (7 It's impossible to get bombs in their basket)
yeah they're stronger than every other enemy AND have global range. It's kind of a terrible design choice but at the same time it's a genius design choice. Imagine how boring the game would be if all the bosses were the same difficulty
@@Sonichufan-2000 yeah I know like he basically uploaded 11 minutes of him failing a basic task. I have been able to easily sink splat bombs into the baskets since I was 12 years old. I can't believe he still hasn't figured it out
@@colecube8251 Agree. I would say maybe half of these are true circumstance and the rest is genuine skill issue. Besides, salmon run is a game about proactivity.
You forgot to mention the part where flyfish only hang out near the shore, which in most instances is at the edge of the map, as far from the basket as possible. Meaning to even get close enough to kill it you have to cross the entire map, killing any bosses or lessers that happen to be spawned at the time, using up your ink, meaning you might not even have enough ink to throw one bomb by the time you get to it, let alone two. Made even worse by the fact that bosses and lessers mostly spawn at the shore, meaning you will be fighting off hoards of full-health enemies eager to smack you around while trying to save up the ink to throw the bombs and accurately target the flyfish's baskets
If it makes you feel any better, this incredibly informational and educational video will not deter splatoon players from their lifelong goal to never, ever defeat a flyfish and then complain on social media about how they keep dying to flyfish. In unrelated news, fuck flyfish, I keep dying to them.
I heard the reward for collecting 7 hundred million eggs is becoming a flyfish. I think Grizz said something about the cycle must continue or something
Fly fish aren’t real, they can’t hurt you. Fly fish aren’t real, they can’t hurt you. Fly fish aren’t real, they can’t hurt you. Fly fish aren’t real, they can’t hurt you.

It's funny how if you gave Flyfish a custom collider on the bucket lids that pushed bombs downwards and another collider in the bucket that caused strong magnetism towards bombs, so that it became almost impossible to miss your shot they'd still be by far the worst regular bosses in this whole mode.
@@superexplosion5985 Ahem I said *who plays salmon run*. I'm like 90% sure the executives don't even play their own game and if they do? Then they definitely also find the flyfish annoying
One helpful tip I learned from many years of fighting Flyfish is regarding who he targets when he fires the missiles. His left (your right) basket always targets whoever he was looking at, usually the player closest to him, before he opens the baskets. While his right (your left) basket usually targets a random player, but I oftentimes notice him targeting the second closest player at that point. So if I'm in a situation where I need to solo a Flyfish, I throw my first bomb at his left basket to stop the missiles aimed for me and make it easier to throw the second bomb at his right basket. Another tip (maybe helpful, maybe not) would be to take out one basket and leave the other one alone to reduce the number of total missiles launched by half. I usually only go for this if two or more Flyfish are currently on the map and I don't want anymore with fresh pairs of baskets to take their place immediately after killing them. Better to have 12 missiles across three Flyfish than *24* of those things if killing them in a timely manner isn't an option.
this feels like mr Grizz going on a tangent at a crew an entire shift and progressively loses it, just for the crew to also progressively stress out and lose it
There can be up to 4 fly fish at one time.Thats 8 baskets! 8 baskets that are shooting a total of 32 missiles at you that can all 1 hit kill you! With each of the 4 fly fish taking an entire ink tank of 2 splat bombs to kill when they arnt invincible!
Wait wait….who doesn’t love the flyfishies? I get excited when I see them floating towards me…and man, when I see that circle on the ground below me…..so much happiness fills me……. *xx*enter sarcastic excitement here*xx*
The end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end
You've successfully launched my sides into orbit kind of like how Fly Fish launch 8 missiles into orbit just to hit you all the way across the world since as we've seen from the Splatoon 3 single player campaign Salmonids are able to fly into orbit without any form of propulsion meaning that Fly Fish use their gigantic mechanized war crime out of sheer spite for your presense on Cod's green Earth
My teammates ignore flyfish so often that I got the 10,000 kills badge for them, like, 2 months before I got my second one. Cool enemy design that makes no one want to interact with them.
For some advice when dealing with Flyfish, if you aren’t in a position to afford two bombs, taking down one of the launchers actually disables the global targeting. The Flyfish will then only target the nearest person! If a Flyfish is just below a ledge, you can roll a splatbomb to have it detonate on the ledge which will take down both launchers. This is map specific, though. I don’t remember all of the places, but Spawning Grounds has a ledge on the end of the incline near spawn facing the low tide area. Astronaut is standing on it at 4:35. Gone Fission Hydroplant has a spot on the top leftmost ledge facing the low tide area. He is standing on it at 5:00. The spot is at the corner of the ledge, the Flyfish in the Fishstick was too far. Jammin’ Salmon Junction has a spot at the end of the right most grate bridge during normal tide. He is standing on it at 9:08. Bonerattle Arena also has a spot. It’s not in the video and hard to describe, but look to see if the Flyfish is close enough to the ledge!
Straight up the worst enemy. Takes so long and so much ink dealing with them for no reward, a global range one-shot, and on top of that all these stupid bugs with its baskets. Just make it so the baskets instantly explode, or suck bombs into them once bombs enter a radius, so they can't bounce out for no bs reason. It's not a funny moment anymore the 100th time it happens, when it demands 70% of your ink tank and waiting for it to waddle into position to even get a chance to deal with one of its baskets. Also idk at least make it/each basket drop an ink refill canister or something for dealing with it edit: I love the stupid sounds so much my brain is very tickled
I feel like Im watching the forgotten sequel to saving private ryan. It has the insanity, ptsd, and moral issues of the first movie, just with a bit more color and warcrimes this time.
I was thinking halfway through the video "man this dude sounds a lot like captain astronaut" and then looked at the channel and said "oh its captain astronaut"
Everyone had a collective groan when they found out tenta missiles returning in Splatoon 3, I had the same reaction to Flyfish returning as well.......
when i was getting thwomped in grand festival big run i thought about how my hero captain splatstronaut would find the 3 flip floppers and 2 steelheads and 18 flyfish so easy and it's actually calming to realize you also. can't beat the overwhelming horde on a high tide map the size of a big toe
I screen capped the video's title and dropped it in a discord group without context just so I could feel the tangible pain and despair before making them watch
9:05 wait holy shit, you just killed the flyfish through the armor by making the drizzler missile explode inside of it, that's wild. Anyway yeah flyfish should've been nerfed ages ago lol. Fun fact: their baskets were perfectly consistent back in Splatoon 2. Literally the only way you could have a bomb bounce out after landing is if some other boss clips into the flyfish and nudges it out. Though in that game it was also pretty common to have the bomb land perfectly in between both baskets, and instead of your skill being rewarded with both blowing up it just does nothing at all
Did I really sit through an *ENTIRE* video about a man having a massive skill issue against flyfish, while using the bathroom. Yes, I did and I don't regret it
And if you gaze long enough into an flyfish, the flyfish will gaze back into you.
If the fly fish strare long enough into you, you will gaze back into the flyfish.
Committing to the bit for 11 whole minutes is impressive, borne from 7 years of your trauma
Flyfish traumatized Mr. Spaceman so hard they turned him into Spamtom
A SPAMTON EDIT WOULD GO CRAZY
Flyfish: "Skill issue. Here is your reward. Launching 8 missiles at your face."
Sonic: Haha, ur too slow.
no wonder we keep losing salmon run all the time
There were a couple Koramora deaths in there, I don't wanna hear it
@@CaptainAstronaut the flyfish is why we keep loseing salmon run.
No joke, I once had a dream where I was in the game and I had gotten so fed up with flyfish I just threw my weapon aside and just punched a hole into the glass and ripped that little sh*t out of there and poped him like a baloon
Why is this not an ability in the actual game.

Doom: Splatoon
Is that love in the air? Wrong!!! FLYFISH!
Grand big run anyone? We already reached the 700mil, 3000 more to one billion!
first big run to get one salmillion golden eggs🔥🔥🔥
I’m sure we will be able to hit 0ne billion by tomorrow.
800mil as of 4pm EDT!
WE ARE GOING TO WIN!!!!!!
YESSSS
He genuinely made and explained all the points I for why I hate Flyfish, for me.

the joy of getting a grizzco slosher so i can torture flyfish
And the splatana
The video started off monotone, and ended monotone but you can sense a bit of existential dread
I've never met a single person who plays salmon run who loves flyfish
Well there's the Nintendo executives that don't seem to think that they're a problem
@@superexplosion5985 Ahem I said *who plays salmon run*. I'm like 90% sure the executives don't even play their own game and if they do? Then they definitely also find the flyfish annoying

I may have a problem
@@pepsibat5715 have a problem? YOU ARE THE PROBLEM

It's going to be okay Captain, they can't hurt you out here.
That's what you think
Not like they have infinite range or anything, haha, wait oh shit-
I can feel the pain and anguish in his voice.
Flyfish only illicit specific emotion from my soul…
a n g e r.
this rivals your ballpoint splatling video in terms of insanity
this feels like mr Grizz going on a tangent at a crew an entire shift and progressively loses it, just for the crew to also progressively stress out and lose it
this is the most painfully relatable splatoon video i've ever seen in my life
I love it when every player throws their bombs in the same hole
The loss of stingray and bomb rush and it’s consequences
11 minutes of Flyfish jank with a random lecture in the background? Now this is the quality content I expect from this channel.
Yeah but look at how much fun that lil guy is having in there
Nice throw!
I feel you dude. Been feeling that for the past 7 goddamn ink forsaken years. I’m so tired.
I have never identified to a montage more in my life.
This video made me relived my flyfish traumas for 11 minutes. It was painful!
10/10
They should make it so the hatch opens after dealing enough damage, like the splashdown fish
next video: captain astro calmly explains what Pot of Greed does for 11 minutes
Maybe there's a little bit of flyfish in all of us
yeah i hate how no one prioritizes killing them in salmon run and then we get overrun and die :(
“where are the fathers in the salmon community?” unfortunately dead after zombifying to mate 😭💀
No one wants to deal with them, and getting rid of them classifies as dealing with them. Annoying, but totally understandable.
Seconded for the Stingers
The insane asylum leaked footage goes crazy 🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯
I had a massive migraine while watching this and I think that it should be a mandatory way to Experience this Video
Feels nice to grease the flyfish with good amount of the weapons we have with this big run.
There can be up to 4 fly fish at one time.Thats 8 baskets! 8 baskets that are shooting a total of 32 missiles at you that can all 1 hit kill you! With each of the 4 fly fish taking an entire ink tank of 2 splat bombs to kill when they arnt invincible!
I have never felt more seen. The script is diarrhea and I am the flyfish.
I feel all these clips on a spiritual level. So painful.
There is no one in my life that i can send this video to who will understand it and im sad because i almost choked on my water multiple times
the amount of bonks and misses is CRAZY LMAOOO
If flyfish have no haters im dead
Wait wait….who doesn’t love the flyfishies? I get excited when I see them floating towards me…and man, when I see that circle on the ground below me…..so much happiness fills me…….
*xx*enter sarcastic excitement here*xx*
this video is high art to me
I am astounded by your ability to aim exactly for the glitchy hinge.
My spider sense tells me that he doesn’t like flyfish…
This might be the best Splatoon video on the internet
Guys, I think he's telling us to get back into Splatoon 3.
every single second of this video is a masterpiece I haven’t seen a Splatoon video so real in my life before
The flyfish knows where it is at all times. It knows this because it knows where it isn't.
The end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end is never the end

Well it ends next week 😢
literally the funniest video ive seen in a while
This is definitely a video made by a Splatoon player
I don’t fear the Flyfish. The Flyfish fear me, knowing that I am the absolute bane of their existence. 😂
Now sending this to my splatoon friends and challenging them to watch the whole thing
this might be my favorite video of yours. Not because its the best video youve made, but because its the most unhinged and ridiculous ahhaha
