Its honestly really demotivating to see discussions or topics I discuss get boiled down to wep a better then wep b rather then any of the actual discussion about the game get posted about. Its just picking sides and losing all nuance.

Honestly, not much has changed. I still love blasters, but I also still play all sorts of other weapons for fun (or as a secondary for comp). I just wish range hadn’t been nerfed so hard so I could play it more in our comps

nobody in this community knows what “getting better” actually means, so all they wanna do is get into + servers or explain their skill with a div, which imo means legit NOTHING rn. Stop putting a title to ur skill and figure out how to win vs EVERYONE.

Genuine question: How can the CCA capture your attention and get your interest in our events?

Splatoon community always talks about wanting consistent teams and the CCA is by far one of the best at having consistent brands by nature of collegiate esports, but sometimes numbers don't reflect that.

Also what if #compsplatoon orgs had their own theme songs. I want a LUTI Tonight theme that plays at the start of every broadcast, or an IPL theme song that plays when coverage starts for Low Ink

Listening to the latest #CriticalInking and I think the kind of #compsplatoon content I want to see most is art that depicts hype moments from tournaments

more players should be fine/willing to play in higher level events/get fucking destroyed by top players a lot of my best learning experiences have been getting 2-0’d in less than 5 minutes it forces you to actually consider the “why” of actions you’re taking
