    Hey everyone, this is a remake of the same video from a while back (which I unlisted.) I wasn't happy with the quality of that video and missed a lot. So yes this video might look familiar but a lot of it is new, I hope you guys enjoy. I also want to give a HUGE shoutout to PJiggles who looked over the script and pointed out some smaller details like the soul.
    As a small side note, a lot of the skins are also based off Splat 1 promo images as well.

    One thing I wish they kept was the whole victory theme that plays after you win, it only plays the jingle instead of the full theme which is a bit of a missed opportunity since characters like Cloud and Joker get to keep their full victory themes.

    • @ctom4242
      @ctom4242 ปีที่แล้ว +28

      Cloud and Joker were both DLC characters (Cloud was added as DLC in Smash 4). Because of the way the development cycle works for these games, DLC characters are definitely given more individual time and attention to their creation. Long standing characters have been tweaked over several games. Thus it's newcomers that were not DLC like Inkling that tend to have the least polish to them.

Instead we get "Big Band goes to die"

  • @shieldlesscap6124
    @shieldlesscap6124 ปีที่แล้ว +105

    For my balance mod for Ult, I originally tried to rework Inkling to implement a lot of the changes you had in mind:
    - Neutral B was still Splattershot, but it spread ink on the ground and stopping and starting shots took less time, but in exchange I think I gave it less range. This change was never really finished since the game's "spread ink" code is still somewhat of a mystery to me and I had to settle for creating ink particle effects on the ground
    - Inklings wouldn't go into squid form when dashing normally, and they'd have a worse hurtbox. However, when dashing while in ink you went into squid form and were faster (run still went into squid form no matter what).
    - Your ink recovery was slightly slower normally, but it was doubled while in ink
    - Inked opponents would move up to a maximum of 10% slower than usual on the ground, but afaik not in the air. In exchange, they didn't take more damage.
    I didn't continue the project, but the state Inkling was left in struggled to kill, so my next plans were going to be changing Bair to use Blaster (the hitbox wouldn't be that much better than it is run since the move is already ridiculously disjointed) along with Dair, possibly changing the other weapons to also spread ink, etc.
    All of this was before we were able to add files so at that time I wasn't considering new weapons, but if I were to revisit the project now I would probably swap out Ink Brush for Octobrush but keep Ink Brush as a dash attack. Not sure where I would put chargers given that Neutral B already got reworked, but maybe I would've replaced ground Side B with charger while leaving air Side B as-is (since I already removed the bury and made that move more of a combo tool).

    I feel like Inkling could benefit a lot if they bring back custom moves in a future Smash game. That way they could include more weapons without cluttering the basic moveset so that every move is them pulling out a different prop. Just for some examples, you could have a charger as an alternate neutral special or the disruptor as an alternate down special.

  • @settlingorca5374
    @settlingorca5374 ปีที่แล้ว +9

    I always thought the jab and forward tilt should have been the splattershot similar to Mega man, with the neutral special being the charger instead.

      My only problem with this is that the low-profiling would be ridonkculous.

    @anankos795 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    I am personally surprised that you didn’t mention how Inkling cannot jump or move right and left when using the Splattershot in their neutral special. As you stated movement is incredibly important to Splatoon and should be emphasized for Inkling’s move set. Personally I think they should be able to move when using it and having the ink shot from it being both very weak (around 0.5 to 1 percent per ink blob shot put at most) and have no hitstun to prevent it from being completely overpowered. With the emphasis on the ink gimmick (they could also be able to ink and swim up walls; to compensate they can’t climb up inked walls when already in the air and Inkling needs to bump into the wall, as in dashing into the wall, in order to climb to begin with) the Splattershot could be used to focus on inking the stages first and foremost with their normal attacks being “get off of me tools” and the Splat Roller being more like what you suggested.
    I completely agree about your qualms about Inkling not being an incredibly light but hard hitting character asking with the strange changes to the Ink Brush and Splat Bomb. Inkling in my eyes fits much better as a character that needs to set up, set traps and get out of the way of bad situations and thus should be punished hard for bad decision making just like in the Splatoon series.

    there’s one more main aspect i’d like to see added to inkling that i didn’t see you touch on, and that’s giving them more stage control aspects
    inking turf is the main thing that makes splatoon so unique, even though turf war isn’t played competitively, it’s the main mode people are familiar with, and i would’ve liked to see more emphasis on controlling the space around the opponent. if they go this route in smash 6, i hope splat bomb in particular gets overhauled to work closer to how it does in splatoon, especially since that would represent how it’s used competitively too.
    i agree with the majority of points you made in this video, as an inkling main and splatoon player myself, though i’m personally not too bothered by the lack of weapon representation. weapon types could definitely be improved, like making neutral special a charger, and making the dodge animation closer to the dualies, but in terms of different weapons of the same type, i think it would be interesting if they were incorporated into octoling as an echo fighter. as octoling tech is generally seen as better than inkling tech, i think it would be cool if they represented more unique weapons. like for down smash, instead of being a quick attack with the slosher, it would be a slower attack with the explosher, but it kills better and has more range to combat the slowness, or side special could be the dynamo roller, a lot slower, but has an initial swing which kills much earlier, or even down special could be a different sub weapon, there’s a lot of potential ideas for an octoling echo fighter, and i think taking inspiration from different weapons is a good starting point.

    You have no idea how much I've been thinking about these exact ideas ever since smash ultimate came out more variety of weapons and the character being more accurate to the series would have made them a lot more fun and a better character overall.

    There was something you missed, although obscure because of how smash is made, there are much more songs! One of them is acid hues, and when you play it the stage goes splatfest mode!
    Another thing is that when you get a kill, depending on what player you are (P1 P2 P3 ect) jud and lil jud will jump up and throw out your color flag. (only works when you start on 3 stocks, then once both people are on 2 stocks it will work.) Also if a game is tight and both people have killed eachother twice, they will put out both flags!

    If anything, the missing weapon types leaves the door open for Octoling in the next Smash game. That said, you can kinda feel that Sakurai was more obligated to include Inkling (& Isabelle) rather than it being a true labor of love like with many of the DLC characters. Not that Sakurai hates Splatoon or anything, but it didn't feel like it was a top priority to nail them.

    One interesting idea could be that in a potential future Smash game could be this kit turning into Agent 3 as another Splat rep, and the “new” inkling/octoling could have a revamped kit more weapon-focused. Would be cool to see!

    There isn't really any telling when they were working on Inkling in Ult. Being the first game came out in 2015 it makes sense there was no S2 related stuff besides music. I feel there was lots of missed opportunities like Agent 3 color not getting the Hero Shot and there really should had been a Charger for Neutral B cause Splattershot was basically just nearly the same as Jab. The FSmash Change would had been cool I'm not gonna lie. Hopefully in the next Smash this stuff will be corrected. Espcially if they add a Octoling Echo Fighter or something.

    @BlueBerry20071 ปีที่แล้ว

    i personally think that the other things you said were weird (such as the normal attacks) fit the inkling in smash. in splatoon, they use weapons and don't have physical punches or other attacks, because ranked modes and turf wars are sports in universe, while in smash it's a fight to the death. it makes sense that they would use different attacks.

  • @Stephen-Fox
    @Stephen-Fox ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Yeah, they felt fine to me as well. Not one of the characters I feel really needs a rework to make actually feel like their game (Hi Ganondorf. No, actually getting to use your swords in your smash attacks isn't enough to make you not feel like the Captain Falcon clone you started life as in Melee to me), but also not one of the characters who feels like a perfect translation. They fit my Smash playstyle well enough so I'm ok with them.
    For a second Splatoon character - Let's say Octoling and keep the stats identical but change up a bunch of the attacks - Do you make the Brella an aesthetic for the shield similar to how Yoshi has that egg aesthetic (but, presumably, actually working like every other shield in Smash unlike Yoshi's egg) or do you make it a counter and/or reflecter with a shotgun blast attached as the Down B?

  • @RobotGuy405
    @RobotGuy405 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I think they chose not to go in depth as they could have with Inkling because for a casual, they're already among the more complex fighters in the game, with having to refill your ink and optimal movement and whatnot, though this is definitely where an Octoling fighter would've helped. An Octoling could have also included more things from Splatoon 2, seeing as Ultimate's dev time mostly happened while Splat 1 was the current game an echo fighter could've at least showcased some more stuff from Splatoon 2.

  • @DarkSharkDomilian
    @DarkSharkDomilian ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Yeah, I always had a problem with the lack of versatility. I think the skins should have had used like actual characters and focused on their weapon preference while slightly altering their kits for the skin. A Marina skin could use a Brella for slow fire but high damage and slightly heavier character, a Marie skin could have focused on the use of the Charger for a light, ranged, and high damage character, etc... Would have had more variety for people's preferences while also still being able to be memorized instead of having near infinite combos like picking and choosing and the complexity of just using more variety within the og kit.

  • @miimemester123
    @miimemester123 ปีที่แล้ว

    I agree that the neutral special could have been a sniper and that there should be a variety of bombs for the down B, being a sort of weaker glass cannon,and the splatbrush being a multi hit forward smash is a great idea,with you mashing the button to do maximum damage. The low kill power makes sense, since an average opponent won’t be hurt that badly by being hit by a large paintbrush or had ink shot at them.

    Honestly a small detail I would have loved is maybe grim range style got well, the grim range blaster as it's up smash instead of what looks to be a regular range blaster.
    And I'd have to agree w how much weapon diversity and such splatoon has it is so much lost potential compared to what's in the game (especially octolings not being added as an echo fighter w the octo weapons from octo expansion/hero mode of s2) but hey I'm just glad they're in the game.

  • @cullenlatham2366
    @cullenlatham2366 ปีที่แล้ว

    i think, considering the limitations of smash, this was one of the best movesets we could have gotten. Going too overboard on the weapon variety would only confuse those outside the splatoon community and lead to a potential assumption that players get an entire armory worth of weapons in every match, and the kicks emphasize the effort of the match. Yes, you get a weapon, but you are not a one-man army (outside of splat 1 specials). You need to know the limitations of your weapon just as much as its strengths. All of the main weapon categories (from 1) are covered except for chargers and splatlings, but both would be much harder to fit into the moveset in a balanced way. A faithful charger has too much range for the rest of the kit which focuses on close range, not to mention start and end lag or the trail of ink left behind, and a faithful splatling provides too much pressure. Both could be implemented, but it comes at the cost of reworking the final smash into a weapon showcase instead of using the killer wail special. Said rework would also come with the same "one man army" assumption problem, if not overhyping certain weapon classes over others.
