Splatoon 3's chill season and version 2.0 just released, so today me and some friends tried out the new weapons, The Big Swig Roller, Splattershot Nova, and Snipewritter 5H on the new maps Brinewater Springs, and Flounder Heights (the goat).

this was one of the most wholesome splatoon videos i've seen, the laughter is so contagious.

I'm glad people are beginning to realize big swig is the mid range support roller,like the flingza,
But you know, on purpose this time
I'm not sure why people didn't immediately realize that from its Kit
Yeah but imagine it had burst and booyah
@@Dawnkeykawng93 I'd be scared
Horrified even
@@bluestrawberry679 honestly I'm surprised that people didn't realize it sooner with how much it inked in the trailer
@@rustedmoss-u lowkey though, they should make the roll speed faster. They want it to be a primarily rolling roller, they gotta sweeten the deal. Otherwise I’m just gonna be flickin shit everywhere and never rolling out of spite.
this is one of my favorite Splatoon videos ever, you could almost see everyone smiling and laughing as they’re playing one of the greatest games and to me that’s beautiful
This video really shows that even despite the flaws, splatoon is just so much fun and deserves all the support it gets.
What flaws does it have? The online thing, you mean?
@@stripedrajang3571 quite a bit. Yea online is one, for a multitude of reasons. But then theres also a lack of options in alotta modes, like you cant quite make custom salmon run seeds yet or scenerios. no mode to pick your weapon in salmon run. Lack of some control options, like being able to look up and down using the right stick when gyro is on. no aim assist for stick users as an option. maps and modes are dictated by the time so you may not be able to even play a game mode you want. cant change settings in a match such as sensitivity. Only 5 freshest fits if you dont use amiibo. You cant pick your weapon at the start of a match. No voice chat and a lack of other communication methods. cant back out of a match or queue. cant change your weapon in the middle of a queue, only at the start. grinding for gear you want is a pain in the neck. If you play pretty much any other online shooter, even bad ones, the lack of some basic features in splatoon that have been in the shooter genre for legit decades is quite appalling. But even the core gameplay of splatoon is so much fun and cant be found anywhere else makes it all worth it despite it all.
@@dorf7219, I do agree with you that there should be options to change gear, weapons, and control configurations between matches, and that you should be able to control up and down on the right stick with the motion on. But about Salmon Run, I'd have to disagree with being able to pick your weapons and maps. I think Nintendo wants, and loves, that randomness. It makes it really interesting, and gives players a chance to use weapons in PvP that they never thought they would ever use.
@@stripedrajang3571 the randomness in salmon run is actually pretty fun. But i mostly just mean in terms of an additional mode to create your own compositions as that could be a different type of fun. And then maybe expand on training letting you try out different wave types with friends to learn strats better.
@@green_the_ninja every game has balance issues, its kinda a non issue unless a tool/option is too good and i dont think anythin is too good atm as the meta is still changing like every 3 weeks i think that shows there actually alotta strong options rn. Also its ok to have weapons that are better in lower level compared to higher, beginners need tools they can use to learn the game and some people even just like the challenge of using lower tier weapons or finding a niche that they can do well.
Glad to know I’m not the only one who thinks the Snipewriter is scary like why does it sound like that help 😭
I know for a fact people will, by the end of Splatoon 3, hear a Snipewriter from behind and immediately get PTSD and panic
@@MeloniestNeon YESSS XD *_Fear our sniping and writing_*
And it's truee, I getcha XD
@@elfilinamie1326 you guys gonna send us long range writing assignments on the themes of splatoon 3?
we will use the snipewriter write your obituary
@@valfodryonsirius7698 Oh, definitely! But we'll send 5 smaller ones instead of one big one, we don't want _scope_ creep, after all.
I love how big the new map is. Also Flounder is pretty fun without being absolutely massive like one. They got a good balance
Are you joking? Bc the new map is one of the smallest
@@dasher6110 at least it feels pretty big because of the height difference and the background.
Flounder finally gives a reason to use squid surge.
I hated it at first but as a slayer I love those flanks
T
The new map is smaller than mahi🗿
7:06 Lmao the way Chara yelled "they're nuking me!" was so funny haha 🤣
For the first new roller and charger since Splatoon 2 release, they're such a blast to use. The nova's more for support than anything else, much like the H3 but with more paint
Aww, agreed, they're so much hecking fun! ^^ I was just switching between them the whole time, this evening/night, they're so much fun! Chargers are my favourite class and the Snipewriter is such a blast (-though not a blaster-) XD
I've still gotta properly try out the Nova, but it looks and feels really cool and fun! ^^
@@elfilinamie1326 the nova's kind of tricky to get used to though! Use your point sensors and you should be fine
I find it kinda funny just how terrifying a 5H pencil is considering, if I remember right, it's light gradient pencil irl. I guess the 5B would be even more terrifying in Splatoon.
H stands for hard, so 5B would hit less hard actually
@@lamegamertime cheers for your reply! Found my old pencil tin that has a graph of the difference for each pencil and the higher the H is the lighter it is. I'm guessing the harder graphite is the lighter it is or something.
I really need to get more Staedler mars lumograph pencils.
It would have insane inking power for no damage, kinda like the carbon of chargers imo
Big swigs surprised me a lot, I really like how it's so fast and has so much range. It makes building special really easy and the horizontal flicks are able to deal chip damage/kill almost dead enemies really easily. Idk how good it is for ranked but it's crazy how long you can roll with big swig, I was able to easily roll around the whole perimeter of the lobby.
Doing recon will give a better idea on how well it'll actually on a stage due to the variation of the terrain
I'm not sure how viable it is but with the tacticooler being unbreakable I wonder if you could reliably use it as deployable cover for snipewriter, would definitely depend on how it handles bombs hitting it and I don't have anyone to test that with
I feel that its meant to be used like that.
I did win a match of Tower Control thanks in part to using the Tacticooler as cover on the tower.
Bombs just roll off of the Tacticooler, so as long as you can strafe well bombs won't be a huge threat
UPDATE: It's pretty good at but warning it will shove teammates on the tower, if you were thrown off the tower on hagglefish into the water by a "softy" I am so so sorry
1:17 lmao
1:17 you were certainly not wrong.
i’m really enjoying the new carbon roller. every new weapon is great, but i’m still not sure about snipewriter
snipewriter is the best out of the new weapons (excluding new kits)
@@AzuriteMaybe but tentatek splattershot exists
@@dasher6110 bro they just said “excluding new kits”
Carbon shark kit is back baby >:3
Roller mains rise, the new carbon is insanely fun, bullying backliners with trizooka is very fun
Somehow they managed to make fundamentally flawed kits still feel fun to play sometimes.
This video was INFECTIOUS, I love hearing you guys having fun, and it was a similar great first experience for me too. I especially LOVE Flounder! Having not played the first two Splatoon games very much, it is extremely refreshing after being only used to the tiny and super open maps in 3. Also I have to let you know that I picked up the Stamper because of you. I mained the Dualie Squelchers before the update in my first 200 hours of Splat3, got to S rank and 163 wins with them, and was trying a bunch of other weapons hoping to find a play style that was similar but everything felt really uncomfortable to play besides maybe the Splash. I decided to also try out the Stamper with this update after watching you playing it and realizing it's similar to Squelchies as a super mobile hybrid mid liner/front liner skirmisher/Slayer, and WOW does it feel INCREDIBLE to play!! And what it has over Squelchies? Direct 1 hit KO at close range and flick attacks which just feels 👌👌👌👌 dopamine injected into my veins, and it's SO good in Clam Blitz especially, as well as stages I was bad at with Squelchies like Mahi. I've also been loving the Carbon Roller Deco and the Zink Mini for Tower Control, and in general I'm really happy with a lot of the new weapons and kits, they're soooo much fun to play.
I've been loving the new Luna kit, it's just so Argo in a way that it literally makes you insane.
The stamp isn't even bad at all since in the situations that Luna can get into, it normally is in a good position to pop stamp.
The fizzy reqlly carries the kit though, if you can get a handle on the combo ranges with the bomb, that is when the brain starts going haywire.
This video was just so pure! You can hear the raw fun you had playing and I loved it!
the new map is so fun to play, with that drop to the flank you can just go back to battling straight out of respawning
Big Swig actually has a lot of weird niche things it can do. Definitely has some potential.
7:25 Omg this was so hype, I almost fell in the shower watching it
The Big Swig has wacky range and it's vertical swing does a minimum of 40 damage. Christ, every new weapon is just chip damage hell
Edit: the Vertical Swing does slightly less damage than the Regular Roller, so has worse oneshot range
I find, when using [BIG SWIG], if you horizontally swing and then roll, you can basically insta-kill the target
Seems to be a theme in this game so far haha
Tri-Stringer? Chip damage
Reef-Lux? Missile chip damage
Big Swig? Chip damage
Nova? CHIP DAMAGE
SNIPEWRITER? DEADLY CHIP DAMAGE
The Splatoon 3 kit maker is a giant couch potato, he/she likes chips a lot.
@@The_Artist_Official once per game cus they can roll away if they notice you
@@The_Artist_Official yeah but, even for Roller standards, that's not real reliable
Yo Chara, just wanted to say that after watching a ton of ur videos, my old x peak from 2 of 2376 has been shattered by my new peak of 2558(as of right now #46 in rainmaker for tentatek) and climbing. Thanks so much for helping me and so many others not only get better but enjoy the game more
I don't even know this guy personally but it brings me a kind of joy when I see his gang having fun. Like a 'I'm a pro but not serious all day b*tch' vibe. So cool
I always liked e-liter because your tank was just enough to wipe a team with no collaterals, pencil’s just as fun imo since you can cut off people’s movement and still have enough shots to splat them
For whatever reason I've decided I want to main the Nova. It just feels right to me :)
Aww, that's awesome! ^^ Glad you've found the right weapon for you! It looks really fun, and I love the design, but I've still gotta try it out! X3 I LOVE the feel of the Big Swig Roller and the Snipewriter 5H, they're so hecking fun to playyy! XD And I love the designs, ESPECIALLY the Snipewriter's, heck! XD
The nova is a little tricky, you just gotta remember to not treat it like a slayer or a pro. The weapon is like 99% supportive. Yesterday i got 21 kills just by spamming point sensors and helping my teammates to splat the opponents. I feel like my enemies hated me💀
@@elfilinamie1326 fr
@@dasher6110 same lol
Nova is basically “Poke enemies and run: The Weapon.” In my
experience, point sensor is best used to mark opponents after you’ve gotten two or three shots on them, and then to retreat and let your slayer teammates finish them off. I’ve found Ink Res to also be really helpful, since you have such a slow kill time and have to reposition a lot, potentially getting targeted with enemy ink.
I like how the new weapons are turf-inkers instead of damage-focused ones like the season 1 weapons. Seems like each season will have a different theme for the new weapons
There are SO. MANY. BOOYAH BOMBS!!!😂 I think putting BB on such accessible shooters was maybe not the best plan😂 still better than missiles though! We were playing on zones at Brinewater Springs, which has a VERY small zone, so needless to say, because of the BBs the zone was swapping about every 2 seconds😂😂😂
Oh my gosh, woww XD Chaos, chaos!!
I've watched and rewatched this video so much. I grind Splatoon constantly and LOVE it, but it's still important to watch others really experience the joy of the game. Keep the amazing content going!
Seeing all the collective hype and love for the new season warms my heart.
Snipewriter has same ink range as eliter, but kill range of scope
getting flounder heights was so good and its still fun to play on, especially since theres not much vertically in 3
XD THE MOMENT WHEN U REALIZED PENCILS HAD ENOUGH OF U LOSING EM BACK IN HIGH SCHOOL 😭🤣🤣
Thought this was gonna be a basic review, but it’s so fun to see these guys have so much fun with this update
This is so wholesome oh my god everyones genuinely having the best time ever with these new weapons and i am HERE for it
It's such a nice change of pace to hear all these comp players genuinely enjoying the game, the chaotic energy & laughter is contagious in the best way possible. I said in the part of the stream I joined that I was lookin' forward to the highlights, & they don't disappoint.
(Disclaimer: not that I normally think comp players dislike the game, just that comp callouts & streamer/content creator energy usually don't mix too fluidly in scrims & actual events. The whole idea behind comp callouts is to only fluctuate tone & such for more pressing action, while getting the full message across as concisely as possible.)
One moment, I have to integrate "get swig'd" into my vocabulary YESTERDAY.
Big Swig playstyle - Paint tons, take Thermal Ink, get enemies attention from FAR, throw down wall, use cover and wall with Thermal to play the stupidest distraction / hide and bait game, boost this further with Vacuum, teammates kill all the enemies while they chase you because they think "he has no.kill power but he'll paint EVERYTHING" if we don't.
I was so excited with the new weapons and maps, I love seeing how excited you got!! Really makes me even more happy about the update haha ❤
5:27 ah just like old times
you didnt just do that
@@lux6485oh he did
@@lux6485oh he did
I was sceptical of the Roller and the new stages but MAN are they good!
Honestly brinewater is still better than mincemeat, It's a lot more attackable too than I expected since the enemy team isn't forced to enter mid from one point either
Snipewriter is really interesting because it feels weak compared to other chargers, which makes it more of a supportive sniper rather than pure anchor, but the fact that it has 5 chances (potentially 6 with a tap shot) to snipe you makes it scary to approach. And it's even scarier when you've taken a bit of damage. I definitely to play around with it more but I do like it.
Finally Sheldon wasn't lying about the roller being a painting weapon
omg i love the positive vibes and how much fun you guys are having! it was fun to see you play the new weapons and having fun with it and the new maps
“Getting pencil’d” has to be the best phrase ever
That jump with the big clam was so clutch! Nice one!
That clam throw at the end was hype. Right as it looked like it missed it just barely goes in.
this looks so fun lmao, i’d love to get in on a big group party like this
The new map that you first show is fun but it’s very easy to spawn camp it compared to other stage. It might need a high spot on spawn if they update it.
Seeing you have this much fun is so wholesome
Flounder feels not only better than Splat 1’s version but it’s probably the best stage in this game right now
*map
From my testing, the nova splattershot nova has the range of a sp pro, the fire rate of an sp, and the damage of an areospray.
I like how Nintendo isn’t afraid to experiment with stats and the fact that they are finally giving us a long range painting shooter is nice.
But I don’t think it deserves the damage of an areospray as it’s kill time is way too low, it’s accuracy is pretty bad and the areospray at least has the fire rate to make up for its damage whereas this weapon does not.
Fun fact: its faster to spam through Sheldon’s dialog than to speed it up
love these vids its just such a good fun time with pals. high level play but the vibes of casual
It’s a lot faster to mash A and B to speed up Sheldon’s dialogue instead of the “Hurry It Up” button. Just a tip for next season
to let you know the roller is about a 2-4 shot killed if you are at the right position you can Splat and then complete your run over it without any knock-back.
also the new blasteris a 4 shot kill.
What I've learned is that having friends that play the game makes ranked not absolutely miserable
"the pencil is so scary 😣"
-chara 2022
Idk if anybody noticed but they added the song name on the bottom right corner at the start of the match so that’s pretty neat
Nintendo posted about it on twitter before dont worry
YESSS It's so hecking cool, I love stuff like that! ^^ I also love that it shows up in the same place and font and stuff as the Stage's name before it, so you already kinda know where to expect info about it, which is really great game/UI design, in my opinion! X3
@@elfilinamie1326 thats very standard ui design so im glad you like it lmao
@@anarkuu But that doesn't mean it's not GOOD design! ^^ The bottom-right corner already showing info about the stage I'd say kinda leads players to expect that to be the place where the "next info" will show up!
hey, idk if youll read this comment but do you have any tips on improving mentality specifically? im the type to beat myself up over every small mistake i make in this game and on losing streaks i get upset to the point of sobbing, its really hindering my growth as a player but i don't know how to stop thinking like i did something wrong instead of seeing losses as the learning experiences they are. my generally bad mental health exacerbates this problem unfortunately :( you dont have to answer but just thought id ask, youre my favorite creator on this platform rn so keep it up
I’m glad everyone had so much fun!!!
hey chara can you do any everything you need to know about the update video? those are really helpful
"me personally? im winning this game, watch this"
(instantly dies)
LMAOO
I love the new carbon roller burst bomb is a really good sub for it.
I want to try the new big swing but I don't know how to play support well.
Normally I like to use Flingza offensively because of its strength, but after trying out the new Carbon, I think I found my new main for Anarchy because I can fucking SLAY with this thing!
i feel like snipewriter could of had a short charge hold that uses up one of the shots.
Vanilla Carbon still has its place thanks to Zipcaster being great with it...
BUT FUCK THAT. BURST BOMBS FOR LIFE!
Of the three new main weapons added to this patch, why is Big Swig the one I’m having the most fun with
I KNOWW RIGHT XD It's so hecking fun! AND SO FAST TOO OH MY GOD! XD
0:37 can someone tell me if three flicks after a wall is good or bad? i cant tell by charas voice and idk much about splatoon
a friend of mine says big swig is the range and paint of a dynamo but speed and damage of a carbon and they arent wrong 💀
that was possibly the most hype clams game ever at the end of the video
loved it so much
The Roller is the only one I don't have, the other two are pretty fun, although I agree with the internet that the nova does not feel good to play, if you're inking or killing.
All three new weapons have supportive kits.
Me who enjoys support role: Hmm...these for me? 😉
2:09 like a fine wine this one 🍷
This ain’t no competitive Splatoon 3. This is a group of Goofy Goober Goofballs Goofing Around w/ da Chill Season.
I do respect what these weapons are trying to do. all 3 of them try to emphasis speed, range, and painting power in lieu of greater lethality. they struggle in direct fights but they feel great to operate thanks to their higher movement and painting ability.
I only hope that these can make a niche for themselves in spite of being low damage. because this is a welcome sight in a gaming environment where new stuff usually just bring more raw power.
Swiggity swooty I’m coming for that Woomy!!
No words can describe how happy I am to have Luna Blaster with Fizzy bomb again
back when we got that many weapons..
Hey chara I have some questions
1:What’s the best and worst special right now
2:When you do a best and worst wepons at the end of splatoon 3 Will you count like bamboo and custom bamboo as the same wepon or are they both different
Big swig: _isn't a bulldozer that flattens in one hit_
Everyone: WAAAAA WHY FLINGZA 2
I do wish it had something besides Wall, but at the very least I'm glad we're getting support weapons. Snipewriter is a pretty supportive Sniper and it dealing 60 damage sets up pretty well for Pro and since Snipewriter has E-Liter range, it might be interesting to see if Pro gets picked to combo with it (hopefully after a buff to Pro). Nova seems good, although I really wish it was a 4 shot instead of a 5 shot or at least a little bit more accurate. Still though, all three weapons are really cool and it's so much fun to play the new weapons.
the 2 new maps are amazing, good to play on flounder again after sooo long
Honestly all 3 of the new weapons would be pretty good with better subs, like Snipewriter with Splash Wall, Big Swig with Burst Bomb and Nova with basically any bomb would be soo much better
Big Swig's vanilla kit not having fizzy was such a missed opportunity
@@Inksanity if the next big swig kit doesn't have fizzy and tacticooler I'm going to scream
I love flounder I missed it from splatoon 1 godlike map
Did they all forget the rolling function of the new roller? When you do that it has an ultra large ink tank
Pencil shooter is honestly potentially really cracked, the kill time isn't instant but it's really fast and the amount of shots like damn, wonder how scary it'll be when it gets a real kit
seeing double snipes that can aim on Brinewater has left me ABSOLUTELY TERRIFIED LOL
I got Splatoon 3 the day before this season dropped, so happy clams don’t break when you super jump, everything’s fun so far.
God this game is so fun when you cram all your friends in a pb on call
The new maps are incredible
It's crazy how Tentatek Splattershot has people finally using Inkstrike lmao
Y’all’s energy in this video was everything!! 😄🤙🏻
On most maps, Big Swig CONSUMES the splat zone.
1:50 Using that when I can use stage.
Idea: bring back guess my rank but with replay codes instead of twitter/yt links
The gold aero spray gun special is broken and I kept getting more than 10 booyah bombs
Charas become a Big Swig man now
Yeah, I too was appalled by the # of flicks you can get off walls. If the wall is supposed to be for putting ip and flicking as supportive chip damage, it needs the same ink preservation mechanic the rolling has, or the flicks need to consume low ink too.
