I ran into someone who would keep jumping off the edge in second wave. I kept trying to revive him, but he was just out to fuck around. I noticed and went off but he wasted too much time. We lost and the salt was immense.
I’ve see someone like that once. He kept jumping off the front of the boat in Marooner’s Bay. I kept reviving him at the beginning of the match. I knew it wasn’t going to do anything to help the team, but since it was only the first few seconds of the wave, I figured I might as well get some extra points for reviving him a few times at the beginning. We still lost the match without him, though.
That's just a good strategy all around. If you can't reach your 3 KO'd teammates and the quota is met, you job becomes staying alive for the next 10-30 seconds until the wave ends, by any and all means necessary.
Really good on Low Tide and Ark Polaris in general. Low Tide because all Salmonids will take at least five seconds to get near you, and Ark Polaris because of the grind rails allowing you to be immune to basically all attacks except for a split second when you're rail hopping.
Third wave, my teammates were all dead in the area below, I was above, about to be killed by two Steel Eels at once. I throw a bomb blindly in desperation, and all of my teammates are revived for the last second of the wave, as I say my last woomy.
Even if you are all dead, the timer will not stop if there is an unexploded bomb, or a Brella still traveling. In one instance I was a sniper during a glowflies round, and I was revived with seconds left in the match. Everyone else including my savior had died. Seeing no chance in slaying the hordes, and being too far away to double tap shot any coworker safely, I tossed a bomb and perished. The bomb pulled us through those last 1-2 seconds we needed to finish the wave, even though we were all dead! Despite all this, we were defeated in the next wave lol
So I would actually like to defend two of the players. Yes, kill steals and egg steals are annoying but the eggs are getting delivered. It doesn't matter who delivers the eggs as long as they get delivered. Secondly is the boss hunter. I can understand why you view this as bad, however when your at the "Profreshional" level, it can be VERY easy to get overrun by bosses so having a boss hunter may be a good thing. Also if I had to be one of these, I'd probably be the egg thief or the savior
manny dani Good point's but may I propose the idea of: 1. All of your team mates are boss hunter's. 2. Not a single one of them are delivering eggs. And last but not least, 3. You couldn't make your quota at the end of wave three and at the end only too see that You've delivered 95% of the eggs and you team has only delivered 1-7 eggs. And they seemed like the kinda players that would blame someone else *cough (me) cough* for them not doing their job.
@@DELETED-xg5ne I'm "The one who doesn't have Nintendo Online since parents complain it costs too much so I can't even play Salmon Run". The struggle is real.
The egg thief can also be a savior. Because they steal the last egg last second and put it in. Being a jerk and hero at the same time. update: Saw a leave squiddo, and I knew it was done on purpose. We lasted to round three. *rip me*
While I do agree about the Egg Guardian (What is the POINT in guarding two dozen eggs?), a Boss Hunter can actually be valuable to your team if you have good players. If the Boss Hunter is actually good at their job, they can take down all or most of the bosses, reducing the danger for the team, and the other three members can take care of the Lesser Salmonids, Flyfish, and collect all the eggs. It might not be so viable when you go Profreshional, but it can work.
With the changes they made to salmon run, boss hunters are a blessing especially at professional 300 or more! (I myself usually end up being a boss hunter)
I ran into a perfectionist in turf war. His name was “1”, and he did clearly not understand that you have to see the big picture, and not color every little bit. He was wearing noob gear, so i guess i can’t blame him. I left him a splat bomb, and then i went on my merry way. I died at the end of the match, and sure enough, he was still inking at our base, covering every little spot.
The sniper: how do they get those "Maws" bomb shots from across the map?? The "Oh right specials exist": use all the specials after round 3 The - A communication error has occured The one who knows the string ray/mothership trick The one who doesn't know what grillers do The one that mains all four weapons The one that can't use any four weapons The one who knows how the Goldie event works
The one who disconnects shortly before the end of a wave to shorten the quota for the remaining crew, turning a loss into a win. The one who keeps a Scrapper in place and stunned, with literally no way to damage it from its behind. The one who accidentally activates specials, due to pressing down the right stick too hard. Often from trying to adjust horizontal camera. The one who rushes to, and camps on the low-tide basket platform when it's mid-tide. The one who (on hidden Goldie wave) starts opening hydrants before all earlier eggs were brought back to basket. The "nearly always dead" while the Mothership is sucking eggs out of the basket. And of course I can't end it without seconding the "Oh right, specials exist!"
Ccs904 Im the sniper lmao. I see a green ring, i throw a bomb in green ring. Doesnt matter the distance or weird angle, i shall always hit no matter what, no green ring will escape my bombs. Oh and im also "Oh right specials exist" lmao
Egg stealer is not a problem bc they are helping to get the count of total done. Egg guardian counts on "egg stealers" to get the eggs to the basket and makes sure the eggs arent stolen or that the enemy pushes too far ahead.
I don’t have a problem with egg stealers since they’re helping. Egg guardians are horrible though. They don’t realize that teammates will keep coming back and kill the salmonids that are trying to take the eggs.
I'd be considered an egg thief player but it doesn't really matter. If there's eggs and a quota to fill, then I'll take em. I personally don't mind when another person takes my kill's eggs. In fact it's better, especially if the basket is far away. Most of the time, though? I just want to get the job done and get others to do it too. I do tend to fight every boss I can get my grubby little mitts on, though. I also try to save every employee who needs it. A fun fact is that I've managed to save a salmon run on two occasions when I managed to heal someone just before I died as the last player. Feels good. My personal playstyle is making a shitton of paths on the walls and being paranoid everytime it turns dark at the beginning of a wave so I call everyone to a Huddle Spot near the basket (Spawning Grounds has a good one) where there's only one path for the salmonids to come in incase of Glowflies so they can all be mowed to the ground. The paths are just shortcuts or providing a place of refuge and are crucial in high tide. I also never use specials except at the very end of a whole run. Squid party all the way 👌👍✌
1. You 2. Teamates 3. The guy that leaves at the beginning 4. *stands still* 5. Booyah Mc fizzle sticks 6. Suicides when is the last one alive 7. this way This way THIS WAY 8. Dont go near my eggs you nincompoops 9. says help to much 10. How to I charge this weapon again? 11 bonus!. The guy that squidflops on every kill even if its a cohock and says all the words as much as possible
you missed the one that's "in it for the loot"... not as competent as the Savior, but is an offshoot of it. they actually play the game, even if everything is against them. they will try to save you, they will get the eggs in the basket, and they might try this thing called "co-ordination". sometimes they save their specials for the optimal moment, such as stingrays for clearing lanes of salmonids, or better still, for the 'Holy Grail' trick, where they blast the mothership to $Make It Rain$ power eggs. otherwise known as "the common player". may slightly overlap with the boss slayers as well as the savior or the egg protector, but never for too long. just long enough to do the job properly. tbh i'm never one of the 3 stereotypes for too long. that's why i mentioned it. i also party squid at the end of every round when the team makes it to the end of round 3.
Imagine this: You're down, everyone except one coworker is downed, quota's met, 10 seconds remain. A wall of mutant fishies stand between all 3 of the incapacitated coworkers and the last kid standing. The other side of the map only has a few chums and a cohock, the side you and your half-dead colleagues are on is filled with bosses and tons of cohocks. 7... 6... you and your life-preserved acquaintances let out a celebratory "Booyah!" as the last cephalopod kid seems... ready. They decide to play the hero, and try to go for a team rez. A line chums and smallfries get quickly booted back to spawn as the hero closes in... then... *SPLAT!!* You no longer see a bada- I mean action star. You only see a life preserver surrounded with green ink and an orange squid spinning around in it. Next thing you know, a horn sounds, and the last thing you see before fade to black... *That's a wrap!*
I sometimes am that player, specially on the mothership. I put one or two and keep the last until we fend it off. On other rounds I might prioritise reviving over delivery. Or helping a coworker on my way. I guess the key is to make sure we met our quota / got time before fluffing around, haha.
I do this way more often then I should. Either reving my team. Or I literally don't notice while a friend of mine points out that I have one when he has the chance
Is there a thing where you’re the “Failure Savior”, when you’re just about to save the team but at the last second you fail and the entire team was dancing waiting to win then y’all lose? …yeah that’s me
You forgot the players who doesn't communicate at all. They don't say "this way!" when the basket moved to the shore on low tide and when the salmon starts showing up on the side or corner of the map. They also don't call for help after they die and know on knows they're dead until they see them dead some time later. I had my entire team die and never called for help, I only found out they're dead a short time later and tried to get to them with a bunch of salmon between us. We lost because I wasn't able to reach them before dieing myself.
Going off the fact that they're all in Profreshional rank, it's only reasonable that they'd have at least basic knowledge about map design and basket placement in tide difference.
Just pay attention to the bottom of your screen. Here for example 2:35 you can see that transparent grey water that always appears as soon as the countdown starts. Keep an eye on it and you'll be the first one who will know if there is low or high tide.
Mistergamer9892 it isn’t about location. It’s about it being low tide in the first place. It took me a good while to figure out the gray waves trick and I’ve been in profreshional since almost the start. Not communicating that just makes you a bad player.
I feel like you forgot the greedy squid. The greedy squid is the squid who don't care if all of their teammates are dead and go for the eggs only to be KILLED BY ONE OF THE SALMON AND YOU LOSE BECAUSE OF THAT GREEDY SQUID (SALTY ALERT) I personally HATE the greedy squids.They don't save their teammates and just go for eggs,and I think if you save your friends(this is for greedy squids)you actually have a FREAKING CHANCE OF WINNING. I think the greedy squids are the 2nd worst salmon run players of all time. Do you agree with me? Welp that's all I got to say. Stay fresh!
One really useful tip for Salmon Run: Use bombs to revive teammates if you’re about to be splatted, or if your weapon doesn’t have the range to hit them. This is especially useful if you’re the last person alive, as you can revive the rest of your team with one bomb. Also, bombs detonate instantly if they touch someone who’s dead.
One time i was playing with this one guy who jumped in the water every time he was revived. He then wouldn’t help us kill the boss’s but then he would take eggs. But he never delivered them He never revived us and I never saw him shoot a single drop of ink. Don’t be like that guy :)
The "Egg Thief" example shown in the video wouldn't bother me. I generally play defensive on soloQ, and I find the role more important to practice than trying to max my Golden Egg count. That means I'm not worried about those 3 easy eggs near the basket. I'm happy to delegate 2/3 of them to another coworker nearby (or about to come back to basket) so I can continue to keep an eye on any foes surrounding me, the basket (map control) and my allies. (And smile each time a boss comes at me near the basket that I can splat without much effort. Hehe. You'll often find me painting up a strategic wall before each wave, too.) Although, thinking about it, I've had instances where I ran out of ink as the first 3 eggs dropped, and my other coworkers rushed towards all 3, leaving me in an awkward front line position, which has me refilling my ink while backing out a bit. It feels regretful whenever that happens. "Not my job" technically exists. I can imagine someone turning salty or anyhow gaining a desire to troll other coworkers, well after they've ranked up their title. I don't see much of a reason to want to derank on purpose, but someone could use that goal as a reason to grief. Maybe someone brave enough to try DCing game after game (which the game could find preeeeeeeeeeety suspicious if you see what I mean)
I don't really mind if people steal the eggs from a boss I defeated. They all count towards your score in the end, and in many cases I prefer to play defensive and concentrate on surviving - particularly if it's something like Glowflies. Don't be a hero; run away once you have the quota and just dodge enemy attacks until the time runs out. If everyone else dies and you survive, the team still pass!
Yeah I am a very defensive player; most of the weapons take a few rounds to get used to and playing with randoms, even focussed ones, I find extremely lacking in the strategy department, so my goal is to make quota no matter what even if that means egg stealing - besides, it's the group total that counts towards points for bonuses not individual collection anyway and it's a group game mode.
really, you're salty at people who take eggs and deliver them? you do know that that is the point of salmon run, right? If you see eggs, grab them and take them to the basket. it doesn't matter who killed the boss, just as long as the eggs get to the basket.
That's right, when my teammates get all the eggs before me, I just go find another boss to kill and get more eggs, or give 'em cover fire so they can reach the basket safely.
@@CJChilliYT The "muted players". -They never say "Booyah !". -They never say "This way !" even when it's needed. -They never say "Help !" and just expect you to notice them, close to the ground. Some people just don't know how Salmon run works.
Pluto Gaming no it doesn’t. It’s annoying. Just don’t stand around. A good player knows how to make it to the basket and back in time to get the ready by themselves, but it’s not like every egg needs to be guarded anyway.
I'm an egg guardian too, but I feel like its a good idea to do it since I feel like it would waste a number of eggs when some small salmoned comes by and takes the eggs. I do think its silly to keep guarding eggs when there is not much time left and any teammates coming by at that time will already be too late to make it to the basket. But yeah. I feel like not guarding the eggs will be a waste.
well i guard eggs but i don't stay there the entire round, i take an egg or two and kill the small salmonids and call out "This way!" then the cycle repeats again
"The 999 Gods" These group of players have played more SR than humanly possible with about 30000+ worth of points In one rotation. They will most likely be the one responsible for a Hazard Level Max, and would put 60 eggs in a run
You forgot "The Squid Quitter" the one that always either leaves or dissconnects, and I am sometimes, but that's all my mom's fault FOR MAKING ME LEAVE IN A TURF, RANKED, OR SALMAND RUN! (just so you know, it happens because family photos and other important things and it happens very littte, so no need for life advice)
Fox World you should probably be a bit more careful before starting a game then, and take out the trash, help your mother and then ask if it’s ok if you can do a quick match or two. Being aware of time and when you got the time to play games is incredibly important, especially if you’re too young to live on your own. Just make sure that you got enough time before starting a match, simple really.
I’m a party squid. I start each wave squid flopping, and at the very end of the shift (end of wave 3) I use up any leftover specials and squid flop. I’m also the savior sometimes.
I hate it when people are like: those are MY eggs! No, salmon run is about teamwork, if you let them help you put them in the bascket the job is eaiser.
What about the elitist the one who always will be as efficient as possible before getting screwed over by their team they fill for every role when needed and have their priorities straight on what to target and when to retreat and hide.
Tip: You see the wave thing on the lower half of the screen? That tells you if it’s low tide or high tide. I swear, so many Profreshinals don’t know this
I am really guardian type but i recently realized that when the team isn't coming after 30 spam of the "over here" line well ill just grab them myself as quick as possible to not let the fishes get them before me
I’m the person who will start just going after boss Salmon. Not because I don’t wanna collect eggs, but because of the other type of salmon runners you mentioned. They’ll all just chase the maws that’s chasing me to the basket just to get the eggs. They’ll ignore the fact that you can get splatted and just jump at eggs no matter if they’re gonna die or not so I have to play safe to revive them. They’ll ignore the stingrays and flyfish, so I’ll have to focus on them or we’ll all get splatted. I’ve tried playing normally and killing bosses as I see them and trying to carry eggs back, but we lose over and over cos players lack critical thinking. Like if you see me leading a maws back to the basket, I can get the eggs. If you have a good weapon and others don’t, don’t get in a cannon. Don’t just ignore the small salmon either. If you just swim by them, you will get overrun. They also don’t repaint the floor. I hate when I get a weapon that can’t paint well and I keep struggling to move. Or when I get a brush, and I’m still left with the task of going after stingrays and like they don’t let me get eggs. I just usually will kill a boss and watch my teammates frantically dive for the eggs. I’ll be on standby to revive them if they jump straight into the eggs and get run over by an eel or jump into a Tenta missile or something.
2:06 OH BOY WHERE DO I START I was playing Salmon Run with 2 of my friends and we had to get one random player to fill the lobby, the 3 of us were voice chatting, all 3 of us got splatted and there was only the random player left, we were jumping around spamming “help” and the player just walked past all 3 of us, and they got splatted and the shift was over, but in the next match we ended up being matched with them AGAIN, so we came up with something to get revenge, we waited for them to get splatted then we went and squid/octo bagged and booyah’d right next to them. We didn’t succeed the shift but that revenge was damn worth it 2:38 I only squid/octo bag (and booyah) at the end of a shift to say “good job” and if I have a special left after the 3rd wave I use it to “party”
I think I'm a mixture of the "always dead" "boss hunter" "saviour" types, I prioritize the safety of my team over getting eggs. If an egg is near me I'll grab it and if the basket is close I'll put in before doing anything else, but if I see a splatted or struggling teammate, even if they're on the other side of the map I prioritize them and any bosses near them. I think my type would be called "they've got your back, but forget about their own".
I'm the "Nearly Always Dead" on Salmonid Smokeyard when it's high tide, things get dicey and nervous for me as the whole crew gets pressured, and I end up misusing the fan platforms and taking dives into the water. Lol. Oh, and I guess also during Griller rounds when I end up having to do risky, nervous jumps. But I'm exaggerating, I'm not that bad at those waves. I'm the "Boss Hunter" when I play defense and there are many Flyfish, Maws, Scrappers, and a few Steelheads/Steel Eels around the basket. At least when I manage to splat 'em all. I've been the Saviour a solid amount of times. Sometimes I'll be that "Egg Thief" who sub-cancels their way towards an egg. TBH, I'm not offended when coworkers take eggs from my boss kills. I'd rather stay focused on my defense playstyle than care about my golden egg totals.
Me: (Usually) saves my powers until the end of the game to party. Squidbags on the egg basket when waiting for it to open. Commits suicide at the end of the game before super jumping back to the boat. Edit: I always get the least amount of power eggs, most of the time.
One time my team lost because I was destroying 3 bosses, guarding 5 eggs, spamming this way, while all 3 of my other team members died to small fry. I died because of 2 steel eels and a fly fish. No joke. I was soo salty after that.
I was actually the Savior once and I was so proud of myself. Legit everyone on my team what’s dead and I delivered the last egg in the last 3 seconds. (Btw this is like the only time it’s happened so you DONT want me on your team, just to make it clear)
ah yes, the egg guardian. the guy who contributes nothing to the egg quota, and lets his team mates get completely overrun by bosses while he sits and watches. the worst salmon run player.
+Green bot Studios spamming "this way" at the rest of us is even worse. we know you're there. we know you're guarding eggs. but if we're not coming to get them, chances are, we're being over run with other bosses, and we would really appreciate your help. we would appreciate it more if you gathered eggs (the first rule of salmon run).
+Sera12105 depends where that double quota of eggs is. if it's far away from the basket, it's pointless. you will only be able to do 1 or 2 trips before you're over run with salmonids again. if that one singular boss is swamping your basket with a lot of little salmonids, then killing it is important. flyfish, stingers, and drizzlers should always be killed immediately.
Anyone else play with people who don't know how each Boss works? "Prioritizer" or "The Manual is my Bible": understands some Bosses cause more trouble than others and will prioritize splatting Stingers and Flyfish before too many spawn. They lure Maws, Steelheads, and Scrappers to the nest and will work together on the latter. They will read a situation before deciding how to deal with Steel Eels. They also know the Grizzco Slosher penetrates armor
You forgot: The one who disconnects on the first round The one who leads the grillers into everyone else The one who waits for everyone else to kill the bosses and then takes the eggs The one who has the last egg but purposely doenst put it in the basket and the quota isnt met The one who has their specials but doesnt use it when all the rest of the teammates are down The one who doesnt communicate with their teammates The one who brings the rush into the rest of their teammates The one who jumps onto the little egg basket platform island and stays there for the whole wave
Defensive boss hunting (to defend important parts of map control near the basket, and make sure the whole crew doesn't get pinned down by bosses) is by all means a smart tactic. That's what I consider myself doing a lot. In fact, any Maws or Scrapper that I see coming towards me, I try to lure them closer to the basket, so the eggs are quicker to harvest & don't get lost as easily. (Speaking of which, to make the egg-hunts more efficient, I usually paint up strategic walls ahead of time before any wave, such as emergency elevators' walls on Marooner's Bay (at least some of the walls). Yes, even on soloQ.) By contract, offensive boss hunting (rushing towards early bosses as soon as you see them; going all out in general), while it helps with survivability, is not always a great tactic. You want to be careful that neither you nor your allies end up frantically CAMPING far-away bosses and their eggs. Learn when to let go of eggs, and get working closer to the basket if the quota seems to get desperate over time. If someone DOES camp there for a long time, it can be a (bad) message for the whole crew to egg-hunt back and forth the whole game, with particularly long egg travel distances. Meanwhile, more enemies spawn from other directions, which as mentioned at 1:15 in the commentary, is a distraction and a danger to your allies, especially if some of them stay pushed far-out and don't allow them near the basket. Travel times further increase and allies will begin to split off, eventually finding out it'd be better to splat bosses near the basket. Basically, add many risk factors and the playstyle of your allies, and it's possible the quota is not met. I had 2 consecutive wave fails like this back in October, with the exact same crew. Phew, this long-winded explanation SUCKS. Thanks anyone for reading that far, I hope that insight in tactics was helpful!
I think you missed “The Medic.” This is the squid that lives for the sole purpose of reviving you. If you, or anyone on your crew is in a floaty ring, they will temporarily renounce all other duties, and revive you as quickly as possible. Even if they’re carrying an egg, and are inches away from the basket, they will not allow their patient to die. At that point, such behavior looks like some kind of AI. When they’re on their way to reviving you, they don’t try to take down any Salmonids, boss or lesser, as if they’re under the Hippocratic Oath, because they focus entirely on reaching you. Unlike the “Savior” that you talked about, Doctor Woomy revives almost obsessively, never grabbing a golden egg unless nobody’s dead. If you die a lot, you probably love this person, but it can sting when you fail to meet your quota because someone was performing a lengthy surgery.
I love egg theives, while they actually do the job, I can do my part. I don't really see them as bad, I just go with it. I once microwaved a toaster strudel, it almost blew up.
I get annoyed at people shooting at the scrapper early. Just let the scrapper come close to the basket. Sometimes I don't do this because shooting at the scrapper can be fun. Also if Maw is following you, go to the basket. It would be an easy 3 eggs. I would like to try not to steal eggs anymore. I would hope that my teammate would carry those three eggs to the basket while I would wander off and kill other things. That might be the best strategy.
The amount of times I've tried leading a scrapper near the basket, only for someone to shoot it and distract it is more times than I can count. Makes me want to spam "this way" in rage
For the first point the other person stealing your eggs changes virtually nothing, it dosent effect your pay grade, nothing all that it changes is at the end of the game it shows your eggs count. I kind of understand if your teammates give you salt but if your communicating with your team they will know who was stealing eggs.
I'm fine with the party squid most of the time. I like to use my 2nd sting ray (if I got one) after the 3rd wave ends and squid flop while holding ZR and right R-stick.
I have something annoying to share that Mr. Grizz says. Me and team: *Gets to last round, but misses quota by 1* Mr. Grizz: *"oNlY 36 eGgS? tHaTs A sHaMe."*
I'm a Savior and I ALMOST ALWAYS loose the run because There's always ONE Always dead and ONE not my job its soooo annoying but I always do my best to not stoop to their level
You haven't meet me I'm the player that you forget that's there but when I show up your like huh I forgot about you yes I'm there Killin crap I'm the wild Card of salmon run so know my name.
Im a egg guardian and boss hunter.... I wish my teamates would actually come over to the MILLIONS of golden eggs i got from the bosses and take us to victory BUT NOOOO THEY GO AND TAKE OUT A MEASLY SMALL FRY!
Vasko Games Being a proud WUT member, I can say this: the good half of us don’t try to force parties. It’s actually the golden rule: DONT FORCE A PARTY.
Used to be an egg guardian, but now, I'm a bit of a savior. You forgot the Egg Rusher, just splats a boss, gets a single egg, and rushes back in case of Snatchers, splats the possible Snatcher, then doesn't wait for anyone else to collect the remaining egg(s) (the Egg Rusher might've splatted multiple bosses before returning the eggs) rinse and repeat until all the eggs are returned, the timer runs out, or the Egg Rusher forgets about the eggs
Wait but the egg theif isnt a bad thing... Its a GOOD THING there putting the eggs in the basket so you dont have to! And while they do that you can hunt another boss kill it, and called your boys over to get the eggs So the egg theif isnt a bad thing
I ran into someone who would keep jumping off the edge in second wave. I kept trying to revive him, but he was just out to fuck around. I noticed and went off but he wasted too much time. We lost and the salt was immense.
Szo Szo that should be in this video just because it has to do with *sucky players in salmon run*
I’ve see someone like that once. He kept jumping off the front of the boat in Marooner’s Bay. I kept reviving him at the beginning of the match. I knew it wasn’t going to do anything to help the team, but since it was only the first few seconds of the wave, I figured I might as well get some extra points for reviving him a few times at the beginning. We still lost the match without him, though.
I met someone who kept doing that throughout all three waves I revived them five or six times the first round but stopped cause I wasn't for it.
Do you know the name of that person?
Szo Szo same
when all other members are dead but we've met the quota, I just run. I call it, the "end coward"
I do that too sometimes and hey it works!
Yeah, it does!
That's just a good strategy all around. If you can't reach your 3 KO'd teammates and the quota is met, you job becomes staying alive for the next 10-30 seconds until the wave ends, by any and all means necessary.
Really good on Low Tide and Ark Polaris in general. Low Tide because all Salmonids will take at least five seconds to get near you, and Ark Polaris because of the grind rails allowing you to be immune to basically all attacks except for a split second when you're rail hopping.
Well remember if you have sting ray you can use it to revive teammates from any distance. I do that sometimes
I’m the “feels guilty when going to put an egg in the basket while the rest of the team fights the boss” guy
I'm "The Disconnect" ;-;
So am I BUT NOT ON PURPOSE!!!
Same XD
I am too
I get salty when any of these thing happen like losing on the first wave
i have never related to a comment so much in my life
Third wave, my teammates were all dead in the area below, I was above, about to be killed by two Steel Eels at once. I throw a bomb blindly in desperation, and all of my teammates are revived for the last second of the wave, as I say my last woomy.
The power of woomynati
"Woomy is the Yeet of inklings" - Confngyes-
Wowsers
Me too!
**Cue sad anime music**
Even if you are all dead, the timer will not stop if there is an unexploded bomb, or a Brella still traveling. In one instance I was a sniper during a glowflies round, and I was revived with seconds left in the match. Everyone else including my savior had died. Seeing no chance in slaying the hordes, and being too far away to double tap shot any coworker safely, I tossed a bomb and perished. The bomb pulled us through those last 1-2 seconds we needed to finish the wave, even though we were all dead! Despite all this, we were defeated in the next wave lol
So I would actually like to defend two of the players. Yes, kill steals and egg steals are annoying but the eggs are getting delivered. It doesn't matter who delivers the eggs as long as they get delivered. Secondly is the boss hunter. I can understand why you view this as bad, however when your at the "Profreshional" level, it can be VERY easy to get overrun by bosses so having a boss hunter may be a good thing.
Also if I had to be one of these, I'd probably be the egg thief or the savior
manny dani same, i was actually confused over his first two picks
A boss hunter who doesnt deliver eggs are the worst. And depending on the map, you need the bosses closer to the basket.
manny dani Good point's but may I propose the idea of:
1. All of your team mates are boss hunter's.
2. Not a single one of them are delivering eggs.
And last but not least, 3. You couldn't make your quota at the end of wave three and at the end only too see that You've delivered 95% of the eggs and you team has only delivered 1-7 eggs.
And they seemed like the kinda players that would blame someone else *cough (me) cough* for them not doing their job.
Thehipsteremo That is strangely specific...
Thank you! Glad I’m not the only one who was thinking this

The egg thief can also be a savior.
Because they steal the last egg last second and put it in. Being a jerk and hero at the same time.
update: Saw a leave squiddo, and I knew it was done on purpose. We lasted to round three.

TheGamingAssassian113 ya
I'm the type of player who always tries to deal with the stingers and flyfish whilst my teammates pretty much avoids them like the plague..
Sameeee like people they’re annoying, but at least hElp
Stingers are easy to take down, and i can take down a Flyfish in 1 go if im lucky
yeah that’s the thing, they’re really easy to take down, yet some people just never go for them
@@user-if4nl2xl8e unless you're those weapons that take forever to kill it lol
Mr grizz literally says to take them down quickly. When I was a go-getter, one match there were like 5 stingers. It didn't end well
How about the people that forget they have specials? Aka literally ALMOST EVERYONE.
That’s me because I don’t need specials to kill a salmon or a pencil
@Vexa Groupen You should use the Stingray on Mothership when it is going to the basket.
@Vexa Groupen I reply, no matter how old the comment is
Actually half the time, my hand slips and I end up wasting a special. I never forget about them though
I try to save my specials for when I absolutely need them, but whenever I actually find it a good time to use the special... I'm already dead
While I do agree about the Egg Guardian (What is the POINT in guarding two dozen eggs?), a Boss Hunter can actually be valuable to your team if you have good players. If the Boss Hunter is actually good at their job, they can take down all or most of the bosses, reducing the danger for the team, and the other three members can take care of the Lesser Salmonids, Flyfish, and collect all the eggs. It might not be so viable when you go Profreshional, but it can work.
With the changes they made to salmon run, boss hunters are a blessing especially at professional 300 or more! (I myself usually end up being a boss hunter)
Wait. THREE HUNDRED? Geez, im barely at 100!
Yeah its very hard to get that high, I'm aiming for 400+ for a potential Maximum Hazard video ;)
I pray for you.
One way to make be useful as the "Egg Guardian" is to spam "This way!" Repeatedly.
I ran into a perfectionist in turf war. His name was “1”, and he did clearly not understand that you have to see the big picture, and not color every little bit. He was wearing noob gear, so i guess i can’t blame him. I left him a splat bomb, and then i went on my merry way. I died at the end of the match, and sure enough, he was still inking at our base, covering every little spot.
MUST INK ALL THE WALLS!!! - That "1" guy
Vasko Games heh, good one. He really is “1” of a kind!
With this guy, you will not w"1" turf war anymore
Coussinex The dank yeeter What?
If you have that person, the solution is to disconnect
The sniper: how do they get those "Maws" bomb shots from across the map??
The "Oh right specials exist": use all the specials after round 3
The -
A communication error has occured
The one who knows the string ray/mothership trick
The one who doesn't know what grillers do
The one that mains all four weapons
The one that can't use any four weapons
The one who knows how the Goldie event works
Ccs904 I too know how the goldie event goes, but when I get it, my teammates just screw around.
The guy that starts the downward spiral of failure by breaking formation on glowflies
LOL I'm definitely the "oh right specials exist"
The one who disconnects shortly before the end of a wave to shorten the quota for the remaining crew, turning a loss into a win.
The one who keeps a Scrapper in place and stunned, with literally no way to damage it from its behind.
The one who accidentally activates specials, due to pressing down the right stick too hard. Often from trying to adjust horizontal camera.
The one who rushes to, and camps on the low-tide basket platform when it's mid-tide.
The one who (on hidden Goldie wave) starts opening hydrants before all earlier eggs were brought back to basket.
The "nearly always dead" while the Mothership is sucking eggs out of the basket.
And of course I can't end it without seconding the "Oh right, specials exist!"
Ccs904 Im the sniper lmao. I see a green ring, i throw a bomb in green ring. Doesnt matter the distance or weird angle, i shall always hit no matter what, no green ring will escape my bombs.
Oh and im also "Oh right specials exist" lmao
Egg stealer is not a problem bc they are helping to get the count of total done.
Egg guardian counts on "egg stealers" to get the eggs to the basket and makes sure the eggs arent stolen or that the enemy pushes too far ahead.
Symbiotic relationship
I don’t have a problem with egg stealers since they’re helping. Egg guardians are horrible though. They don’t realize that teammates will keep coming back and kill the salmonids that are trying to take the eggs.
Egg guardians are unnecessary in Profreshional though. There's more than enough bosses to cover those couple eggs on the ground
the best duo
@@ciberkid22 plus, you can time a bomb to where the eggs are and get the snatcher while you deposit the eggs on your own
I'd be considered an egg thief player but it doesn't really matter. If there's eggs and a quota to fill, then I'll take em. I personally don't mind when another person takes my kill's eggs. In fact it's better, especially if the basket is far away.
Most of the time, though? I just want to get the job done and get others to do it too.
I do tend to fight every boss I can get my grubby little mitts on, though. I also try to save every employee who needs it.
A fun fact is that I've managed to save a salmon run on two occasions when I managed to heal someone just before I died as the last player. Feels good.
My personal playstyle is making a shitton of paths on the walls and being paranoid everytime it turns dark at the beginning of a wave so I call everyone to a Huddle Spot near the basket (Spawning Grounds has a good one) where there's only one path for the salmonids to come in incase of Glowflies so they can all be mowed to the ground.
The paths are just shortcuts or providing a place of refuge and are crucial in high tide.
I also never use specials except at the very end of a whole run. Squid party all the way 👌👍✌
"I don't mean to brag, but..."
I create escape routes and safe spots while the rest of my team just parties at the basket.
Wow i'm totally that kind of player
1. You
2. Teamates
3. The guy that leaves at the beginning
4. *stands still*
5. Booyah Mc fizzle sticks
6. Suicides when is the last one alive

9. says help to much
10. How to I charge this weapon again?
11 bonus!. The guy that squidflops on every kill even if its a cohock and says all the words as much as possible
you missed the one that's "in it for the loot"... not as competent as the Savior, but is an offshoot of it. they actually play the game, even if everything is against them. they will try to save you, they will get the eggs in the basket, and they might try this thing called "co-ordination". sometimes they save their specials for the optimal moment, such as stingrays for clearing lanes of salmonids, or better still, for the 'Holy Grail' trick, where they blast the mothership to $Make It Rain$ power eggs. otherwise known as "the common player". may slightly overlap with the boss slayers as well as the savior or the egg protector, but never for too long. just long enough to do the job properly.
tbh i'm never one of the 3 stereotypes for too long. that's why i mentioned it. i also party squid at the end of every round when the team makes it to the end of round 3.
Imagine this:
You're down, everyone except one coworker is downed, quota's met, 10 seconds remain. A wall of mutant fishies stand between all 3 of the incapacitated coworkers and the last kid standing. The other side of the map only has a few chums and a cohock, the side you and your half-dead colleagues are on is filled with bosses and tons of cohocks. 7... 6... you and your life-preserved acquaintances let out a celebratory "Booyah!" as the last cephalopod kid seems... ready. They decide to play the hero, and try to go for a team rez. A line chums and smallfries get quickly booted back to spawn as the hero closes in... then...
*SPLAT!!*
You no longer see a bada- I mean action star. You only see a life preserver surrounded with green ink and an orange squid spinning around in it. Next thing you know, a horn sounds, and the last thing you see before fade to black...
*That's a wrap!*
I’m that guy who casually used a sting ray to save my teammates on the other side of the map then die and barely get the quota lol
There's usually a person on my team who has an egg, but doesn't put it in the basket.
Plasma Grunt Abby they probably forgot.
I sometimes am that player, specially on the mothership. I put one or two and keep the last until we fend it off.
On other rounds I might prioritise reviving over delivery. Or helping a coworker on my way. I guess the key is to make sure we met our quota / got time before fluffing around, haha.
There's usually 1 or 2 on mine.
I do this way more often then I should. Either reving my team. Or I literally don't notice while a friend of mine points out that I have one when he has the chance
Plasma Grunt Abby I hate that and usually there the only one there because salmonoids push me in the water
Is there a thing where you’re the “Failure Savior”, when you’re just about to save the team but at the last second you fail and the entire team was dancing waiting to win then y’all lose?
…yeah that’s me
A Random Person same
Me too but if I die its because I was overwelmed by bosses.....
You forgot the players who doesn't communicate at all. They don't say "this way!" when the basket moved to the shore on low tide and when the salmon starts showing up on the side or corner of the map. They also don't call for help after they die and know on knows they're dead until they see them dead some time later. I had my entire team die and never called for help, I only found out they're dead a short time later and tried to get to them with a bunch of salmon between us. We lost because I wasn't able to reach them before dieing myself.
I mean, I know all of the low-tide basket locations for every map, so that's why I don't use "This Way".
+Mistergamer9892 why assume to or team mates know that though?
Going off the fact that they're all in Profreshional rank, it's only reasonable that they'd have at least basic knowledge about map design and basket placement in tide difference.
Just pay attention to the bottom of your screen. Here for example 2:35 you can see that transparent grey water that always appears as soon as the countdown starts. Keep an eye on it and you'll be the first one who will know if there is low or high tide.
Mistergamer9892 it isn’t about location. It’s about it being low tide in the first place. It took me a good while to figure out the gray waves trick and I’ve been in profreshional since almost the start. Not communicating that just makes you a bad player.
I feel like you forgot the greedy squid.
The greedy squid is the squid who don't care if all of their teammates are dead and go for the eggs only to be KILLED BY ONE OF THE SALMON AND YOU LOSE BECAUSE OF THAT GREEDY SQUID (SALTY ALERT)
I personally HATE the greedy squids.They don't save their teammates and just go for eggs,and I think if you save your friends(this is for greedy squids)you actually have a FREAKING CHANCE OF WINNING.
I think the greedy squids are the 2nd worst salmon run players of all time.
Do you agree with me? Welp that's all I got to say.
Stay fresh!
How can there be something worse than that
HAH I AM THAT SQUID look into my profile picture
When your the only one alive, drop everything and save your teammates. Dont go for eggs, dont kill boss salmonids. Just revive the team.
*why.*
*why did you have to put in "sTaY fReSh" in there instead of "DoNt GeT cOoKeD, sTaY oFf ThE hOoK!"*
And the egg guardian is the absolute worst.
Sometimes I forget I have an egg and I try to pick up another one nearby, and then realize my mistake
I lost my rank because some bastard wouldn't revive the team
Tomato TCG
"some bastard". Lol!
I don't know why but I find it funny. lawls.
Soooo fucking true
oMG so true! like they saw me and walked away to help the team. .. I was like WTF dude?!?!?
Those squids are a piece of carp.
I’ve had one of these players that didn’t revive me once and we lost
One really useful tip for Salmon Run: Use bombs to revive teammates if you’re about to be splatted, or if your weapon doesn’t have the range to hit them. This is especially useful if you’re the last person alive, as you can revive the rest of your team with one bomb. Also, bombs detonate instantly if they touch someone who’s dead.
The "I only play if I like the wepons" player a.k.a me
Superkidplayz same
Yep. That’s how we roll
Jet, dual, splattershot, N-zap, the grizco weapons, and tri
Lmao yea
EG Super same
One time i was playing with this one guy who jumped in the water every time he was revived.
He then wouldn’t help us kill the boss’s but then he would take eggs. But he never delivered them
He never revived us and I never saw him shoot a single drop of ink.
Don’t be like that guy :)
@Julio Paulino it was the name of the commentator. But I'll remove my reply cause I changed my mind
I'm the "almost save the team but dies last minute" guy
egg thief, they’re getting the job done, pls step down
also, the “not my job doesnt exist, or you’re stuck at the first rank, no one like that would be able to get a rank
The "Egg Thief" example shown in the video wouldn't bother me. I generally play defensive on soloQ, and I find the role more important to practice than trying to max my Golden Egg count. That means I'm not worried about those 3 easy eggs near the basket. I'm happy to delegate 2/3 of them to another coworker nearby (or about to come back to basket) so I can continue to keep an eye on any foes surrounding me, the basket (map control) and my allies. (And smile each time a boss comes at me near the basket that I can splat without much effort. Hehe. You'll often find me painting up a strategic wall before each wave, too.)
Although, thinking about it, I've had instances where I ran out of ink as the first 3 eggs dropped, and my other coworkers rushed towards all 3, leaving me in an awkward front line position, which has me refilling my ink while backing out a bit. It feels regretful whenever that happens.
"Not my job" technically exists. I can imagine someone turning salty or anyhow gaining a desire to troll other coworkers, well after they've ranked up their title. I don't see much of a reason to want to derank on purpose, but someone could use that goal as a reason to grief. Maybe someone brave enough to try DCing game after game (which the game could find preeeeeeeeeeety suspicious if you see what I mean)
I don't really mind if people steal the eggs from a boss I defeated. They all count towards your score in the end, and in many cases I prefer to play defensive and concentrate on surviving - particularly if it's something like Glowflies. Don't be a hero; run away once you have the quota and just dodge enemy attacks until the time runs out. If everyone else dies and you survive, the team still pass!
Yeah I am a very defensive player; most of the weapons take a few rounds to get used to and playing with randoms, even focussed ones, I find extremely lacking in the strategy department, so my goal is to make quota no matter what even if that means egg stealing - besides, it's the group total that counts towards points for bonuses not individual collection anyway and it's a group game mode.
Chilly Catto but if they do it too much it's gonna annoying
really, you're salty at people who take eggs and deliver them? you do know that that is the point of salmon run, right? If you see eggs, grab them and take them to the basket. it doesn't matter who killed the boss, just as long as the eggs get to the basket.
Me not so much, especially with the new update its super useful tbh. But some people do get very salty at it so I thought I'd mention it
Explode 0 Matic PREACH
Vasko Games that’s team work though, you four are all trying to meet the quota- no matter who kills what it all depends on teamwork
That's right, when my teammates get all the eggs before me, I just go find another boss to kill and get more eggs, or give 'em cover fire so they can reach the basket safely.
Explode0matic ok
I'm the Savior I always try to save my team ASAP, but IF YOU DONT SAY HELP I WON'T NOTICE.
are you sure though?
Sadly I never say help, What should we call the people who never say help?
@@CJChilliYT The "muted players".
-They never say "Booyah !".
-They never say "This way !" even when it's needed.
-They never say "Help !" and just expect you to notice them, close to the ground.
Some people just don't know how Salmon run works.
Always say help even if you’re right next to someone
I am honestly an egg guardian.
Spamming “This way!” Helps though
Pluto Gaming no it doesn’t. It’s annoying. Just don’t stand around. A good player knows how to make it to the basket and back in time to get the ready by themselves, but it’s not like every egg needs to be guarded anyway.
A. W. It does help though
I’m an egg guardian too tbh, usually I switch out once someone comes to get an egg so I can TRY to get the eggs to the basket
I'm an egg guardian too, but I feel like its a good idea to do it since I feel like it would waste a number of eggs when some small salmoned comes by and takes the eggs. I do think its silly to keep guarding eggs when there is not much time left and any teammates coming by at that time will already be too late to make it to the basket. But yeah. I feel like not guarding the eggs will be a waste.
well i guard eggs but i don't stay there the entire round, i take an egg or two and kill the small salmonids and call out "This way!" then the cycle repeats again
"The 999 Gods"
These group of players have played more SR than humanly possible with about 30000+ worth of points In one rotation.
They will most likely be the one responsible for a Hazard Level Max, and would put 60 eggs in a run
You forgot "The Squid Quitter" the one that always either leaves or dissconnects, and I am sometimes, but that's all my mom's fault FOR MAKING ME LEAVE IN A TURF, RANKED, OR SALMAND RUN!

Fox World I know how that feels
Fox World I so know what you mean
Same
Fox World you should probably be a bit more careful before starting a game then, and take out the trash, help your mother and then ask if it’s ok if you can do a quick match or two. Being aware of time and when you got the time to play games is incredibly important, especially if you’re too young to live on your own. Just make sure that you got enough time before starting a match, simple really.
QuestionableMind sure but what if he does that and your mom forgets something on purpose and then
U know the rest
I’m a party squid. I start each wave squid flopping, and at the very end of the shift (end of wave 3) I use up any leftover specials and squid flop. I’m also the savior sometimes.
Dog2puppy MCPE Instead of “Squidbagging” at the beginning and end of every round you could help ink turf for territory control.
Mindwipe96 man u need to chill out. Party squid ftw

Deny they're challenge.
It's a simple spell but quite unbreakable.
Boss hunter = The one of the best players if your on profreshional.
Just don't get too many of them on your team.
I agree! I usually end up playing this role when doing salmon run since 90% of the time my team losses from being attacked by too many bosses
I ran into this squid kid that would just stand by and watch us splat the bosses and then they would take the eggs WTF😡🤬
Gaming With Kittens then dont kill the bosses
@@primarina9812 No? That's pointless because then you won't meet the quota

No, salmon run is about teamwork, if you let them help you put them in the bascket the job is eaiser.
What about the elitist the one who always will be as efficient as possible before getting screwed over by their team they fill for every role when needed and have their priorities straight on what to target and when to retreat and hide.
That's me
In salmon run

Shaun Darcy honestly me sometimes, but I'm mostly a boss hunter that does things right.

You forgot one type: People that can’t understand the basket is in a different spot.
I have to spam "this way" like a thousand times at the beginning of low tide
Same
Tip: You see the wave thing on the lower half of the screen? That tells you if it’s low tide or high tide.
I swear, so many Profreshinals don’t know this
I never knotice the low tide although one “this way” or “help” is enough to rally me to you
I am really guardian type but i recently realized that when the team isn't coming after 30 spam of the "over here" line well ill just grab them myself as quick as possible to not let the fishes get them before me
I normally SquidParty at the beginning and end of the wave. \_('-')_/
Edit: I'm the Savior.
MajestyDreemurr same
For me it depends on my mood. Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. :/
Yeds
I do it too! :)
Save the squid party until the end of the last round I think, as beforehand there's always work to be done.
I’m the person who will start just going after boss Salmon. Not because I don’t wanna collect eggs, but because of the other type of salmon runners you mentioned. They’ll all just chase the maws that’s chasing me to the basket just to get the eggs. They’ll ignore the fact that you can get splatted and just jump at eggs no matter if they’re gonna die or not so I have to play safe to revive them. They’ll ignore the stingrays and flyfish, so I’ll have to focus on them or we’ll all get splatted. I’ve tried playing normally and killing bosses as I see them and trying to carry eggs back, but we lose over and over cos players lack critical thinking. Like if you see me leading a maws back to the basket, I can get the eggs. If you have a good weapon and others don’t, don’t get in a cannon. Don’t just ignore the small salmon either. If you just swim by them, you will get overrun. They also don’t repaint the floor. I hate when I get a weapon that can’t paint well and I keep struggling to move. Or when I get a brush, and I’m still left with the task of going after stingrays and like they don’t let me get eggs. I just usually will kill a boss and watch my teammates frantically dive for the eggs. I’ll be on standby to revive them if they jump straight into the eggs and get run over by an eel or jump into a Tenta missile or something.
2:06 OH BOY WHERE DO I START
I was playing Salmon Run with 2 of my friends and we had to get one random player to fill the lobby, the 3 of us were voice chatting, all 3 of us got splatted and there was only the random player left, we were jumping around spamming “help” and the player just walked past all 3 of us, and they got splatted and the shift was over, but in the next match we ended up being matched with them AGAIN, so we came up with something to get revenge, we waited for them to get splatted then we went and squid/octo bagged and booyah’d right next to them.
We didn’t succeed the shift but that revenge was damn worth it
2:38 I only squid/octo bag (and booyah) at the end of a shift to say “good job” and if I have a special left after the 3rd wave I use it to “party”
I think I'm a mixture of the "always dead" "boss hunter" "saviour" types, I prioritize the safety of my team over getting eggs.
If an egg is near me I'll grab it and if the basket is close I'll put in before doing anything else, but if I see a splatted or struggling teammate, even if they're on the other side of the map I prioritize them and any bosses near them.
I think my type would be called "they've got your back, but forget about their own".
I'm the "Nearly Always Dead" on Salmonid Smokeyard when it's high tide, things get dicey and nervous for me as the whole crew gets pressured, and I end up misusing the fan platforms and taking dives into the water. Lol. Oh, and I guess also during Griller rounds when I end up having to do risky, nervous jumps. But I'm exaggerating, I'm not that bad at those waves.
I'm the "Boss Hunter" when I play defense and there are many Flyfish, Maws, Scrappers, and a few Steelheads/Steel Eels around the basket. At least when I manage to splat 'em all.
I've been the Saviour a solid amount of times.
Sometimes I'll be that "Egg Thief" who sub-cancels their way towards an egg. TBH, I'm not offended when coworkers take eggs from my boss kills. I'd rather stay focused on my defense playstyle than care about my golden egg totals.
OMg yes!!! The smokeyard gets me so much when its high tide as well XD
Me:
(Usually) saves my powers until the end of the game to party.
Squidbags on the egg basket when waiting for it to open.
Commits suicide at the end of the game before super jumping back to the boat.
Edit: I always get the least amount of power eggs, most of the time.
That's what I do when the salt is building up in me
1:26 But I try damndest! I mean, I'm not too good, but I try!
One time my team lost because I was destroying 3 bosses, guarding 5 eggs, spamming this way, while all 3 of my other team members died to small fry. I died because of 2 steel eels and a fly fish. No joke. I was soo salty after that.
TheporktopGamin you have the right to be salty
You should have rushed over to help them instead of guarding the eggs
I was actually the Savior once and I was so proud of myself. Legit everyone on my team what’s dead and I delivered the last egg in the last 3 seconds. (Btw this is like the only time it’s happened so you DONT want me on your team, just to make it clear)
SKIDDADLE SKIDDOODLE MICROWAVE A TOASTER STRUDEL
ah yes, the egg guardian. the guy who contributes nothing to the egg quota, and lets his team mates get completely overrun by bosses while he sits and watches. the worst salmon run player.
+Green bot Studios spamming "this way" at the rest of us is even worse. we know you're there. we know you're guarding eggs. but if we're not coming to get them, chances are, we're being over run with other bosses, and we would really appreciate your help. we would appreciate it more if you gathered eggs (the first rule of salmon run).
I always end up getting the opposite where everyone ignores the double quota worth of eggs over One Singular Boss on the other side of the map.
+Sera12105 depends where that double quota of eggs is. if it's far away from the basket, it's pointless. you will only be able to do 1 or 2 trips before you're over run with salmonids again. if that one singular boss is swamping your basket with a lot of little salmonids, then killing it is important. flyfish, stingers, and drizzlers should always be killed immediately.
I don’t see why people get mad when people try to communicate... seems to be a problem in the comments about “help” and “this way”
I’m sort of the party squid, but only when the match just ended or just began.
Anyone else play with people who don't know how each Boss works?
"Prioritizer" or "The Manual is my Bible": understands some Bosses cause more trouble than others and will prioritize splatting Stingers and Flyfish before too many spawn. They lure Maws, Steelheads, and Scrappers to the nest and will work together on the latter. They will read a situation before deciding how to deal with Steel Eels.
They also know the Grizzco Slosher penetrates armor
I'm the person who's good, though people call me a tryhard, That makes me BETTER.
You forgot:
The one who disconnects on the first round
The one who leads the grillers into everyone else
The one who waits for everyone else to kill the bosses and then takes the eggs
The one who has the last egg but purposely doenst put it in the basket and the quota isnt met
The one who has their specials but doesnt use it when all the rest of the teammates are down
The one who doesnt communicate with their teammates
The one who brings the rush into the rest of their teammates
The one who jumps onto the little egg basket platform island and stays there for the whole wave
What about the ones who jump on the egg basket platform and waits for the basket to show up then plays?
Like with grillers i like to keep them in one or 2 spots. Jumping back and forth between 2 places so the team can deal with it
@@VM-xv3cz That's me....
Dude the boss hunter is smart. You lose way more often to getting overrun than running out of time.
i am basically the boss hunter 90% of the time
Defensive boss hunting (to defend important parts of map control near the basket, and make sure the whole crew doesn't get pinned down by bosses) is by all means a smart tactic. That's what I consider myself doing a lot. In fact, any Maws or Scrapper that I see coming towards me, I try to lure them closer to the basket, so the eggs are quicker to harvest & don't get lost as easily. (Speaking of which, to make the egg-hunts more efficient, I usually paint up strategic walls ahead of time before any wave, such as emergency elevators' walls on Marooner's Bay (at least some of the walls). Yes, even on soloQ.)
By contract, offensive boss hunting (rushing towards early bosses as soon as you see them; going all out in general), while it helps with survivability, is not always a great tactic. You want to be careful that neither you nor your allies end up frantically CAMPING far-away bosses and their eggs. Learn when to let go of eggs, and get working closer to the basket if the quota seems to get desperate over time.
If someone DOES camp there for a long time, it can be a (bad) message for the whole crew to egg-hunt back and forth the whole game, with particularly long egg travel distances. Meanwhile, more enemies spawn from other directions, which as mentioned at 1:15 in the commentary, is a distraction and a danger to your allies, especially if some of them stay pushed far-out and don't allow them near the basket. Travel times further increase and allies will begin to split off, eventually finding out it'd be better to splat bosses near the basket. Basically, add many risk factors and the playstyle of your allies, and it's possible the quota is not met. I had 2 consecutive wave fails like this back in October, with the exact same crew.
Phew, this long-winded explanation SUCKS. Thanks anyone for reading that far, I hope that insight in tactics was helpful!
I'm just all of those except for the always dead but I HATE THE TEAMATE THAT NEVER REVIEVES YOU ITS SOOOOOOOO ANOYAYING because I'm not one of those
Me too. I will always do everything I can to revive teammates, especially if I'm the only one alive.
I think you missed “The Medic.” This is the squid that lives for the sole purpose of reviving you. If you, or anyone on your crew is in a floaty ring, they will temporarily renounce all other duties, and revive you as quickly as possible. Even if they’re carrying an egg, and are inches away from the basket, they will not allow their patient to die. At that point, such behavior looks like some kind of AI. When they’re on their way to reviving you, they don’t try to take down any Salmonids, boss or lesser, as if they’re under the Hippocratic Oath, because they focus entirely on reaching you. Unlike the “Savior” that you talked about, Doctor Woomy revives almost obsessively, never grabbing a golden egg unless nobody’s dead. If you die a lot, you probably love this person, but it can sting when you fail to meet your quota because someone was performing a lengthy surgery.
i'm the "ignored by all teammates when dead but saves they're asses every time they get splat"
I love egg theives, while they actually do the job, I can do my part. I don't really see them as bad, I just go with it. I once microwaved a toaster strudel, it almost blew up.
Theres always that one player who is the last one surviving. We all did that atleast once.
I get annoyed at people shooting at the scrapper early. Just let the scrapper come close to the basket. Sometimes I don't do this because shooting at the scrapper can be fun.
Also if Maw is following you, go to the basket. It would be an easy 3 eggs.
I would like to try not to steal eggs anymore. I would hope that my teammate would carry those three eggs to the basket while I would wander off and kill other things. That might be the best strategy.
The amount of times I've tried leading a scrapper near the basket, only for someone to shoot it and distract it is more times than I can count. Makes me want to spam "this way" in rage
I’m the “Medic”
That type of guy who saves every dead squid and octopus and then die
"Skidaddle, skadoodle, microwave and toaster strudel!"
wHEEZE
0:10 Rare footage of a wild chilean splatoon player
For the first point the other person stealing your eggs changes virtually nothing, it dosent effect your pay grade, nothing all that it changes is at the end of the game it shows your eggs count. I kind of understand if your teammates give you salt but if your communicating with your team they will know who was stealing eggs.
Exactly. If i kill a boss near the basket and my teammate gets the eggs, i just get to kill more stuff :)
Who cares which player gets the eggs?
I'm fine with the party squid most of the time. I like to use my 2nd sting ray (if I got one) after the 3rd wave ends and squid flop while holding ZR and right R-stick.
I have something annoying to share that Mr. Grizz says.
Me and team: *Gets to last round, but misses quota by 1*
Mr. Grizz: *"oNlY 36 eGgS? tHaTs A sHaMe."*
Ikr
I think it has something to do with this game being made in Japan. In Japan, they have extremely high expectations of things.
@@catguy4996 This sounds very true
>gets upset at egg snipes
>gets upset when people dont collect eggs
I'm the GTG type. (Why is dinner always here when i'm in the middle of a Salmon run round?
Does the dinner included salmon in some way?
Um that time when your 9 years old and can STAY in profreshinal... 😂 that’s me😂
I'm 10 and was a profreshinal,but I lost some matches soooo,yeah,I got myself oofed
Then there's the 'I'm trying my best, but I'm new to these weapons and literally only finished training today' person, aka me.
8: the Shot Blocker. They always stand in front of you and block your shots, immense salt insues
Me when everyone but me is down and I have a Sting Ray: Come, this is no place to die!
I'm a Savior and I ALMOST ALWAYS loose the run because There's always ONE Always dead and ONE not my job its soooo annoying but I always do my best to not stoop to their level
Usually im either the savior, party squid or egg guardian xD
Im the saviour
I don't mean to brag, but...
Same...
ZGlove S. Same
Same

I’m the exact opposite of the boss hunter, I take the eggs and make a run for it
I think the egg thief is fine as long as it’s one out of the 3/5 eggs or everyone else forgot about the eggs!

*See favorite breakfast food*
*TRIGGERED*
You haven't meet me I'm the player that you forget that's there but when I show up your like huh I forgot about you yes I'm there Killin crap I'm the wild Card of salmon run so know my name.
Nice vid vasko 👀.
Also about my video, my video won’t be up until sometime next week (if everything goes to plan)
The main problem with salmon run is that even with a competent team, its still hard to win once you reach profreshional.
Im a egg guardian and boss hunter....
I wish my teamates would actually come over to the MILLIONS of golden eggs i got from the bosses and take us to victory BUT NOOOO THEY GO AND TAKE OUT A MEASLY SMALL FRY!
Don't assume all wut members do that
I know, this was a huge exaggeration. Usually the part squids I run into aren't wut members
Vasko Games Being a proud WUT member, I can say this: the good half of us don’t try to force parties. It’s actually the golden rule: DONT FORCE A PARTY.
Almost every salmon run team of mine squid party all the time especially at the end of the 3rd wave
I love to squid party at the beginning and end of each wave
I do too. And if at the end of round 3 I haven't used my specials, I just go ahead and use them for fun
Definitely a party squid
Used to be an egg guardian, but now, I'm a bit of a savior. You forgot the Egg Rusher, just splats a boss, gets a single egg, and rushes back in case of Snatchers, splats the possible Snatcher, then doesn't wait for anyone else to collect the remaining egg(s) (the Egg Rusher might've splatted multiple bosses before returning the eggs) rinse and repeat until all the eggs are returned, the timer runs out, or the Egg Rusher forgets about the eggs
I speak with great detail about the Egg Rusher as I mostly am
The player I am is the Medic. I dont fight bosses, I just heal downed teamates.
I'm the boss hunter and the savior :D
Edit : I'm the egg guardian too x)
Dragon squidbags me before I get revived LOL.
0_0... :D
...
LOL XD
I think I’m the egg guardian and the boss killer. ❤️👍🏻
There is the “I’m so good at salmon run I don’t need to care about my teammates”
Wait but the egg theif isnt a bad thing...
Its a GOOD THING there putting the eggs in the basket so you dont have to!
And while they do that you can hunt another boss kill it, and called your boys over to get the eggs
So the egg theif isnt a bad thing
