I watched a video on smash ultimates stage selection and saw a lot of similarities between it and S3's stage/zones only discussions.
Watch the video first for context but some thoughts: youtu.be/b1VUnyCsSQ4?...
So while on my flight I watched Fire The Pyro's video on Smash ultimate's stagelist. This is such a good video that I would recommend watching first (you don't need to know much about smash to get it) but I wanted to bring it up because the issue discussed feels almost identical to the debate Splatoon has with its stage and mode formats, in fact we even use a similar solution proposed at the end of this video, so I think it helps bring some perspective to it. The video talks about how Ultimate has a stale similar set of stages especially when compared with melees variety. However the reason for this is that the viable character matchups are so absurd in scale that the lack of variety in stages makes it more feasible as a character. Where a game like melee's more limited roster has room for that. Splatoon used to be closer in scope to melee, but Splatoon 3 in many ways is this games version of ultimate, not only having an like 60 weapons, but having almost all of them being viable. While not as many as ultimate, being a 4v4 game also means the amount of comps you can fight are also absurd. A few weeks ago a major in Japan as won twice, the comp included 3 weapons that never won a big event before, 2 of which in the same comp. It also featured a weapon kit that was almost never used outside of specific stages on all stages. This isn't a rare occurrence, and is added to further by balance updates on an already extremely diverse meta. At top level play, the popularity of 2 formats has dramatically increased in popularity as a result. Either being small stage-lists on all 4 ranked modes, being 4-5 stages per mode for 20-25 combinations. Or Splat Zones only on a maximum of all 25 stages. Both of these formats receive similar scrutiny especially from more casual playerbases. And while some of these factors are unique to this game, like poorer stage design. I think the large variety of options plays a factor. In fact on formats outside of zones only, weapon diversity oft…

Hype moments and aura are canon now 🦑✨🔥 #Splatoon
Redraw of the splatoon 3 version 11.0 promotional screenshot. The promotional inkling “veronika”, an inkling with the megalobraid hairstyle who wears the cephalopods and tri-shred tee, holds a splattershot with a determined expression. They have sparkles and lots of other cool visual effects around them to illustrate how hard they are aura farming. “Splatoon 3: ver. aura farm” is written in the bottom left corner
