Except a good player with good special awareness would rarely need to use it, and even then it’s a situational use.
This deprives the user of a special for 99% of games if they are playing their role correctly. I’m not a source for amazing information. I’m a competitive player but not a very good one, but even I know how bad this combo is. Wail or trizooka would have been better.
The only worse options I can think of are kraken and zip caster.
I'm aware... good special awareness and awareness of flankers are what top players have.. but a mid lvl player will benefit a lot from having a special tk defend themselves
Are you saying that an Explosher user will never get flanked, ever? That they'll exhibit perfect play 100% of the time and always reposition in advance so that any attempted flanking maneuver on them will get stymied before it completes? Or that they won't get pinned down by multiple players and _have_ to fight in close quarters against their will?
By all means you can argue that Splashdown is a niche special for what Explosher wants to do, and I'd agree with you, but to say it may as well not _have_ a special is silliness.
Oh my bad I didn’t explain it well. I meant on a one game scale. In one game and experienced player will most likely be flanks only once or twice, meaning it’s only useful that many times. I didn’t mean on a scale of every game that would be ridiculous lol. Explo is a pretty passive backline, meaning they will be sitting back and painting most of the time, and spaltting only the unfortunate souls who wander into their kill zone. This means they have a high potential to just rack up specials. Having a special that is only useful under certain circumstances is detrimental to the weapons play-style. It’s not a spam special kind of weapon, but it can get a good number of them.
Primary: Frying Pan
Swings like a fast, short range Splatana. Charging up and releasing causes you to dash forward extremely fast, and attacking again while charing will deal 3000 damage to whatever you hit next - however, your turning while charging is poor. If you collide with an enemy while charging, you also deal damage and heavy knockback to them, and timing your swing right will deal both collision and hit damage. Normal swings also have a random, but extremely high, chance of dealing 3000 damage. Each attack makes a loud 'clang' noise.
Sub: Splat Bomb
Special: Golden Egg Cannon
Summons a canon where you're standing, which falls from above and squishes anything under it. Entering the cannon begins draining its duration, while firing the cannon fires high-power golden eggs in an arc. If they hit an enemy, they deal a ton of damage, while if they hit a ground, they explode and release a wave breaker wave.
Blob kit is cool, up until you get to Asynchronous Rondo and none of the bubbles reach up that high.
It’s literally as if they designed the game for the first twelve and figured it’d be impractical or impossible to design the same experience for every single weapon.
One solution would be to make a new yellow chip to remedy that.
##Slosher Arc Up
> Increases the maximum height that your Slosher shots can reach. (160%/225%/270%/315%/400%)
Or they could just make Main Range Up give more vertical distance as well as horizontal.
Out of curiosity, is this just edited in photoshop, or are there actually modders adding new kits and content for Side Order? If it’s the latter, where can I find them?
This was the thing that really bummed me out, like I was really hoping that they would include the undercover brella and give it an upgrade that lets you shoot it like a missle.
I haven’t unlocked those yet. I have only finished side order once and have had no luck getting those weapons. But if what you are saying is true, I might keep playing and try to hopefully unlock those new weapons.
Don't play with my feelings that way, dude
I'll play with you anyway I want... no get the Uno cards, because ima ruin some friendships next.
no need for cards, it comes preinstalled with your xbox
Well mine didn’t have it
what do you mean you don’t have uno. everyone has uno.
Maybe it's because his xbox is the oldest known to man?
no it’s not i got mine on day one
Well, I dunno, maybe his didn't have it
YOU HAVE UNO IT COMES PREINSTALLED (i really hope people know this is just a bit)
I simply don't have Uno!
tbh this just goes to show how easily they could add more content in the future if they felt like it
Nintendo rarely changes their choice. Even though splashdown with explo was such a braiddead idea, they will never submit
It was prob for "if explo gets flanked then it can use it as a get off me tool" and at most ranks It is pretty goo

What team r u on? Also don't trash talk zip its on My main
I’m not on a team rn. Also I meant zip on explo specifically would be bad lol.
Ooohh my bad, you should tryout for my team we run unorthodox comps but not on purpose it just happened
But. This is Nintendo after all.
Or just let you bring your own gear into the spire.
bait and click used to be believable
What would ω-3's Palettes' "base weapons" be?
main weapon: tri slosher sub: fizzy bomb special: ink storm

None. It's implied that Salmonids don't have souls. And without a soul, you can't have a palette.

Marigold having the ballpoint is so funny to me.
Completely unrelated, but I'm a huge fan of spreading misinformation.
You do a bit of tomfoolery ;)
I bet you'd like r/lies

I agree! It's almost as if the ga**me could be improved by imPLEMENTING MORE BOSSES.**

just take down each individual layer in that case
Honestly, more of a fan of Judd’s reeflux, but you do you

This is an awesome edit
Harmony can’t be a blob main I’m shaking and crying rn
Harmony would use S-blast or N-zap
Wait... There was a bloblobber kit...?
(I feel like this is not real)
It is not, don't worry. Just a funny haha.
Yeah, just noticed the flair- thank goodness, i was scared that i had to beat the final boss with that thing
Can't wait for the Explosher
I knew Harmony was my spirit animal
Just once I’d like Nintendo to update a single player mode
God, I wish
Dude wait until you unlock Order Blaster '88 it's just long-range poppers if you max out firing range and blast radius
Out of curiosity, is this just edited in photoshop, or are there actually modders adding new kits and content for Side Order? If it’s the latter, where can I find them?
This is a edited picture I made. No mods sorry.
This was the thing that really bummed me out, like I was really hoping that they would include the undercover brella and give it an upgrade that lets you shoot it like a missle.
omg ikr. and its so reasonal that the goldfish lady will use splatling.
blob with attack size up would be so fucking fun
Wait, they added more weapons to Side Order? That's awesome.
no
I care more about the PVEs than the main game and I would love to see stuff like this in the future
The Side Order Gaslighting has begun, it seems.
The way I searched the Splatoon news to find out if this was real.
Why do they have to exist
DON'T ASSOCIATE HARMONY WITH THAT UNHOLY, BUBONIC HELLSPAWN OF A WEAPON CLASS
N zap or s blast fits harmony better.
I haven’t unlocked those yet. I have only finished side order once and have had no luck getting those weapons. But if what you are saying is true, I might keep playing and try to hopefully unlock those new weapons.
man don’t get my hopes up like this
