      Oh yeah, I remember why ability doubler might've been made. In terms of the Splatfest, it allows everyone to have the 'main ability' on the shirt, whatever it might be, by replacing it with value subs. It's only due to not being able to change the main abilities. If we can choose what main ability the Splatfest Tee has in Splatoon 3, there's no need for ability doubler.

    Mpu should come back, IF there isn't any damage up. If they do bring back mpu along with no jump rng, then there wouldn't be too much variety in what it would do. So either they bring back mpu, and keep jump rng, no mpu, or make mpu do something different/unique for each weapon. Like giving jet squelcher thermal ink shots. The more mpu you have, the longer thermal ink lasts.

    I think an interesting idea for opening gambit would be to turn it into a snowball ability. So if you're winning it gives you tools to be aggressive and take fights to secure the knockout, but if you're losing it doesn't do anything. Basically reverse LDE but instead of bomb spam it's stuff like QR or QSJ or ink res or swim speed or even a brand new tool to help you get back in the fight quicker.

    • @DanielLudwig-uw6sb
      @DanielLudwig-uw6sb 2 роки тому +22

      I really like this idea. Opening Gambit and LDE should be more about which side is winning instead of being time based. I think they could rework both so that Opening Gambit works when your team has the Rainmaker/is on tower/has the zone, but LDE only works when the opponents have the objective. This would make Opening Gambit strong when your team has the advantage, so its a risky but rewarding ability, and LDE a sort of safety net, helping you when in disadvantage, but doesn’t help you to push your advantage. This would be the opposite of Opening Gambit, a low-risk ability but not rewarding when it comes to scoring

      That seems like a neat idea. However, I think opening gambit needs to be a double-edge sword because being able to snowball more easily would be quite broken. Perhaps if you have opening gambit and if you're losing, you get reduced effects like your swim speed or run speed becomes slower and you refill ink slower. Nothing too major otherwise it's too risky like respawn punisher, but just enough that there is a trade off.

      It already has snowballing capability, using something with Armor or Point Sensors lets you consistently extend it past 1-minute mark, often much further. The issue is that for anything that doesn't get infinite assists the time extension is too stingy, you have to literally spawncamp the entire team to make it last the entire match. Getting it buffed to 10 seconds at least (average respawn plus jump in time) would make it usable proper.

    I do have some fanmade abilities but not sure about most of them:
    Hard Landing (shoes exclusive): When superjumping you can press B again to do a little splashdown-like move where you land hard on the ground and create an explosion that could do about 35 or so damage
    Ability Enhance (headgear exclusive): Would probably enhance all of your abilites in main slots like for example Hard Landing could have a distance increase (Fudge damage up it can go to heck), and something like stealth jump (splat2 version) could decrease the radius in which people see the landing mark
    Heal Up: Could reduce the time it takes for you to start healing when in ink by up to 35% or so
    Heavy Ink: Any Enemy hit by your ink from shots will have 1 sub of anti-Run and anti-Swim speed on them for 5 seconds max and 1.3 seconds base
    Accuracy (Shirt Exclusive): Reduce all Jump RNG by a random counter of 25-50% Every match

    You throw an anchor that goes a short distance (would make it halfway across The Reef's bridge, but can make it up some short walls like the ones in Museum D'Alfonsino) and then you do a small mini-super-jump to it.

    With Damage Up gone I'd expect Ink Resistance Up's viability to drop off Moray Towers to the point that they may as well make it a part of Run Speed Up. If that happens it'll probably make it easier to justify a buff that I had in mind for Opening Gambit. After the ability expires the player gets to keep one sub of each given ability. Wasting 10 ability points on 6 (9 if IRU remains) ability points sucks but means that the main slot won't be completely wasted.

      IR's effects are very underrated, both the old and the new effects. I use both Aero and Jet quite a lot, both do 96 damage with 4/3 shots respectively, and ever since IR got buffed I get almost no random quick splats with them, since 1 sub doubles the amount of time needed to accumulate that 4 damage. And a couple mains make you way slipperier in spotty ink, useful for both aggro frontliners and slow guns that would rather not shoot their feet.

    I feel like the unoffensive abilities of MPU could be split off into their own abilities like 'Ink Coverage Up' or 'Accuracy Up' fairly well, and allow all weapons to have access to all of MPU's decent effects. Some of the very weapon-specific ones could be left behind like the rolling speed buffs (unless that was bundled into Run-Speed Up), but most of them could be alright as full abilities with a little tweaking, like 'Accuracy Up' not only increasing jump accuracy but also reducing bullet spread in general. Most of them could be kept that way and give more options for kit building.
    Except damage up. Get rid of that one. It was removed from Splat2 for a long time for a reason, and it was (probably) only brought back due to fan pressure, where it proceeded to completely destroy the balancing that Splat2 had up until that point. We don't need it in Splat3.

      @@sewoh100 Yeah, I didn't think of that at first, but it would definitely need a different effect for weapons that are already 100% accurate on the ground. I like your idea of increasing the hitbox of each shot to make it easier to hit the target, something which fits the idea of 'increasing accuracy = increasing chance to hit what you're aiming at'.
      Another thing I didn't quite consider in my original post is that if they split MPU into each of its separate abilities we'd *definitely* need a better gear-building system to make it easier to build gear sets, since I'd bet having that many more abilities would:
      -A. Make it a pain to build gear with Splat2's wholly RNG-reliant system, and
      -B. Probably would make gear sets much more specific to each game mode or weapon.
      (i. e. Ink Coverage Up would be much more useful in Turf War, whereas Accuracy Up would probably be much more useful on specific weapons, so there'd be a lot fewer 'one size fits all' kinds of gear builds that are viable at higher levels.)

      And when you get right down to it, isn't that actually the main reason why it broke the Splat2 meta when it was added to the game? Why it's so much more of a problem than just plain-old Damage Up in the first game? The whole reason why the entire Splat2 meta is based around which weapons get the best buffs from MPU?
      Yes, yes it is. It's so OP on some weapons that the solo-queue meta revolves entirely around MPU, and the select few weapons that it's actually significantly useful on.
      I feel like splitting up MPU so that every one of its sub-abilities is available to every weapon (and ditching Damage Up completely) would fix this situationally-OP problem with it entirely, and add a lot more customizability and options for gear builds.

    Imagine special power up as a shirt exclusive ability (more drastic buffs like a 4th Trizooka shot) but it adds 30 points for special to your weapon. Ninja Squid for supportive players. I think it'd be a really cool trade-off ability for Splatoon 3. What do you think?

  • @Galiaverse
    @Galiaverse 2 роки тому +2

    Reminder that you've stated you were only against MPU+DmgUp to achieve 99 damage, and you were fine with improvements to consistency. Has your opinion changed since then, or are you just prioritizing the simpler option that Nintendo would more likely pursue?
    I'm surprised you actually favor Recon. I've always found it super useless for SoloQ, even after its buff. 3.5 seconds of having to split focus between the TV and the gamepad was nigh worthless when enemy positions changed so rapidly. I would update it to have the silhouette effect as well so full attention could be given to the stage, and a map check would reveal enemies exactly like your teammates are displayed.
    Here's an interesting idea: What if Special Charge Up only worked on unmarked turf? Makes the ability gradually less effective over time, meaning special spam becomes more difficult or risky over the course of battle. This would also indirectly increase Tenacity's importance, because that ability would still enhance meter gain when covering any turf.

    • @effluxi9587
      @effluxi9587 2 роки тому

      In the case of MPU damage that isn't 99: The majority of the weapons that have it either don't need it at all or always use the same amount (Eg: Rollers). Honestly, just remove it and fine tune it's damage.
      On the topic of recon: on switch there's no split focus because the map is on the same screen, and especially with 3's new spawn mechanics, it seems fine.
      The idea you have for special charge up is, no offence, hot garbage. The big problem with splatoon 2's meta is that it encourages going off and painting corners in your base nowhere near the action, and this encourages that quite literally. The real solution is to just increase the base points for special.

    They could have opening gambit reworked so that if you’re winning then you get the buffs. It could be like the opposite of LDE. Also, they could turn special charge up into a headgear exclusive and have it more powerful, like ink res in Splatoon 1

  • @TheReflexWonderful
    @TheReflexWonderful 2 роки тому

    What would be your idea of making Opening Gambit good? Maybe getting the buffs every time you killed an enemy at any point, rather than simply prolonging them if you kill within the initial speed window?

  • @chrisr.5647
    @chrisr.5647 2 роки тому

    I actually think it would be cool if they made main, special, and bomb power up single main abilities like ninja squid, where they give your weapon or sub or special a really good advantage for a trade off. For example, main power up could make it so the charger laser and indicator light is not visible to enemy players, or increase the charge speed or range, with the trade off of it greatly increasing the ink consumption of the weapon, then it could be countered by main saver. Or for specials it could increase the health or something similar of the special, while reducing the time that it stays active, which could be countered by special duration. For bombs it could greatly increase the range and blast radius, while also increasing the consumption so that it is not possible to throw more than one (or 2 in burst bombs case), obviously this could be countered by ink saver sub (while still not making it possible to throw more than the default amount). I think this would be a more fun way to buff weapons, subs, and specials, while also adding more trade off abilities like ninja squid.

    Just gonna mention one potential thing with Thermal Ink, specifically it's use with Bloblobber. As someone who loves and uses Bloblobber it is a really nice skill to have for it. Since Blobber is pretty easy to hit someone directly at least once it can help with either finishing someone off, maybe surprise attacking them or making it more difficult for someone to surprise attack you/knock you out of position. I use Thermal Ink with the bathtub, i can also see some use with the other sloshers (mainly Explosher as another option). But it is kind of a shame that ones who would benefit from it (blasters) need that direct hit requirement. Cause aside from what i mentioned here Thermal Ink either would help but doesn't cause of the need for a direct hit (blasters) or you don't need cause the weapon is quite ride or die (rollers or chargers for example)
    Just thought it would be cool to mention as a Blob user, Thermal Ink is personally very useful as a blob. As someone who's played 2 and is playing 3 it is very interesting finding out about how Splatoon 1 handled skills or some skills i was unaware of in Splatoon 2 (I had no clue about Cold Blooded). Thermal Ink has no use for the other weapons i use currently though (Carbon and Splat Roller, Slosher and Tri Slosher and Hero Shot Replica). I can see it being very funny on Undercover Brella though

    i have a ability design, its like a greedy main ability where the more kills you get the more abilites you get
    1 kill = 3AP of swim speed, run speed, special saver, and quick super jump for like 30 seconds
    then doubles every time, would be good for kill heavy weapons

    Maybe if opening gambit starts working for the first kill of a game? Suppose you manage to kill someone on the opposing team before that player’s killed anyone, you then win the “opening gambit” and gain a few buffs for a short time, similar to comeback but it’s only the first kill you make. I think it would encourage slayers to be a little more attentive rather than just running in and trying to recklessly get kills and gain mod control at the beginning of the game.

    I'm curious how a ability like "delayed special charge" as a main exclusive. Basically when your special is charged it won't show up in the overlay but there would be a special gauge penalty. (Like idk 20pts more) It wouldn't really be worth it for tenta missiles since you can spam it but would be useful if you have something like Kraken but it's clear that splatoon 3 doesn't have something similar. I would say it should delay showing a special is charged by 5 seconds since that's enough time to sneak up and activate but short enough for it to not be broken.

    You forgot splatoon 2 ink res but i’d guess that would probably be in the essential tier anyway. For 3, maybe bomb sniffer and recall could be combined for some sort of ultimate locator main ability. That would probably be better than the host of mediocre locator abilities from 1 and 2.

    Opening gambit should be reworked into an ability that grants you a few seconds of buffs every time you kill somebody. It would be like the Spy's Big Earner knife from Team Fortress 2, which gives him a movement speed buff that lasts for a few seconds whenever he uses it to kill an enemy.
