Yeah, that is extremely strange, and I trust you didn't cut any content...so the fact you had Cohozuna all four shifts, back-to-back, is an anomaly that would be very hard to explain... I guess you and your team just have beyond amazing luck? Or maybe it's the high egg count? ...I mean getting 200+ constantly is a feat hardly any team can do...although you guys did spawn Cohozuna on the last one with only 167 eggs, so I assume that theory is debunked... Meh...either way, god-tier...
I just want to point out, this is EXACTLY how I play Salmon Run. The only difference is I don’t paint as much, and I move around significantly slower, and I miss most of my shots, and I get splatted a lot, and I get fewer eggs, and my team will fail on round 1 or 2, but other than those small differences, I play just like this.
I'm just trying to imagine what it must feel like to have a team you don't need to worry about because they don't drop like flies every 5 seconds. Let alone the crazy amount of eggs 🤣 Very impressive!
This is so sick! I kinda wish Cohozuna had greater odds of randomly appearing if you got over X amount of golden eggs by the end of the third wave - would be nice to reward good runs with some scales!
if you listen close, the horn that announces the salmon bosses arrival, it's going so fast it can even finish for most of em, first it's one then three, then like seven!!! this is the perfect team, the teamwork is astonishing. good work you guys!! 🧡🧡
this just made me realise how good salmon run is at instilling panic into the player (or well, VIEWER too, because jesus christ). hearing the horns go off on top of each other is terrifying, knowing that you have no idea of what could be coming your way next, and any one of them could end your shift without breaking a sweat
Climb up to high Eggsecutive ranks and you will find some salmon run legends in your freelance. If not, search for a discord and put a team together. Even if the team isn’t legendary at first, you can grow together and maybe make some friends.
It’s so satisfying seeing all those eggs just littered around the basket & the constant sound of them going in. If only the game had voice chat maybe we could get a small fraction of this kind of teamwork in freelance
i was surprised how much specials were being spammed game 1 wave 3. but then i thought about how many eggsecutive runs ive lost on high tide due to going from "everything is fine" to "we're being overwhelmed" in .5 seconds so i actually think that was really smart and i shouldn't be as stingy with my specials.
Good eye, it's indeed surprisingly easy to react too late to when a special is necessary. Something even many experienced players still struggle with, partly because knowing whether a special is necessary requires info about the state of the game, which there is a ton of in SR.
tbh especially if its the last wave there is nothing to loose. And even if you get Cohazuha after that, you regain one special charge. Using specials when its too late can only (SOMETIMES!!) fix the chaos and doesnt prevent it
And there we have it, folks, Brian getting a gold scale on the first shift...which was a HLM (Hazard Level Max 333%)... According to sources that I've found out even more about this during a previous video that I've commented, the chances of getting a gold scale is not only low, but it also depends on certain factors. Obviously hazard level plays the biggest role in getting gold scales, but also how fast can you kill it plays a factor as well. As we saw, the team killed Cohozuna in 50 seconds on HLM...without any Grizzco Weapons... I felt like this was incredibly optimized to the point that it'll be very hard to beat that time. But at the end of the day, all of that equals to around approximately 3% chance of spawning a gold scale out of all the ones collect in total...yes it's LITERALLY A MOBILE GATCHA PULL IN GETTING THE DAMN THINGS... I think we can all agree that while the rates overall to get golds really suck ass, I think they'll make a workaround when the first Big Run comes at some point...which is pretty scummy since it'll only be active for certain times... But as long as we can get at least four or more golds from it, I suppose I CAN forgive them for this (Still leaning to not likely)... 8:29 That was the slickest kill I've ever seen on a bow like that. Real fancy, Mr. Hotshot~ 🤣
@@Danny328DT There are some really good teammates at higher ranks. Profreshional is pretty hit or miss but I have had mostly good teammates in Eggsecutive.
This is ridiculously impressive to watch. If only I can get away from the awful teammates I'm matched with in the Professional +1/+2/+3 ranks... I can only carry the team so far! 😢
Apologies sometimes I’ve played when I’ve drank a bit lol. But no seriously I’ve had nothing but bad teams lately. I had so many bad matches last week I got demoted to part time from professional 2. I think I’m gonna take a break before getting back into it.
i noticed that you basically never go down to the shore. i have a few questions. 1. do you recommend this for casual players? 2. what are the best strategies to fend off backline bosses without having to push shore? (especially on the 2 other maps)
I don't think you need to avoid being at the shore when you're at a lower level, as bosses will spawn less frequently along with cohocks, chums, and smallfrys. Spending less and less time on the shore as you move up is a good habit though. As going out there, especially going alone guarantees you're going to die and have to be revived. The best strategies you can have for fending backline bosses is probably to mainly be aware, and if they're too many on the shore start to make your way up there. I think it'd be good to prioritize which bosses should be killed first. Like if there's a flyfish and maws next to you use your bomb on the flyfish. Using the raised areas of the map to help thin out the regular salmonids close to the shore is helpful too, as you won't be as vulnerable from other directions while picking them off. Make sure to pay attention to your role as a weapon too. If you're a blaster it's probably good to stick to the sides and on the higher part of the map so you can take care of stingers easily.
Already overfishing on S3? Yeesh, you people are machines! Considering Stingray isn't a thing anymore is it worth it to Killer Wail the mothership? Can you revive teammates with golden eggs or the explosion from launching them? As a side note, do you like the Stringer? I play it similar to a midline anchor hybrid. With thermal ink, cover isn't a thing anymore where as Chargers struggle with this.
Killer Wail: Yes... sometimes. It's mostly used if Crab or Inkstrike aren't an option. Crab is by far the best because it's much better at taking down the chinooks spawning above the basket and also lasts a lot longer. Egg revive: Yup! Unless I'm mistaken you should be able to revive players with egg throws. Stringer: Hmm kinda? I gotta say I had serious doubts about the weapon when seeing it for the first time. While it definitely isn't great or anything, it's at least not that bad so I wouldn't really mind having it.
Idk what type of magic is going on but salmon run is way more interesting this time around than it ever was in S2. Something about it just tells me that Nintendo will be regular supplying the mode with content the same way they do with multiplayer.
Would you happen to know how Cohozuna targeting works? Is it based on who does the most damage, or does it switch like Grillers? Do eggs factor into this? Also, sucks that the gaps between rewards are so huge now. Wonder why they did that.
Man, when I play everytime theres like 3 flyfish spawning at seperate ends of the map each round, or there or like 4 consecutive big shots 😔. I think i counted like 11 flyfish total in these 4 shifts.
It's definitely not a surprise there's less since these games are basically cherry picked. There were still a little over 50 Flyfish/Stingers/Big shots combined in these shifts, which all have similar value in Overfishing since all that matters is how far the eggs spawn. Some of them are just hidden quite well because we communicate who deals with them, which generally happens right as they spawn. Cause yeah as I'm sure you know any later becomes troublesome.
Already all of us spend a lot of time practising this game doing random pickups. And eventually we noticed we all had a very similar level in motivation for pushing the limit of this game, so from there it was only logical to turn this more into a consistent team.
Here's some tips: There are certain bosses that are more deadly than others (ex flyfish, stingers, big shots) so always prioritize killing those if you can. Try not to stay on the shore for too long though especially if you're alone, as dying becomes much easier and it'll take a while for you to be revived. Pay attention to the map and weapon rotations. One of the worst maps is spawning grounds as it's very cramped. Some weapon rotations have more niche weapons or just don't work well. If there's a lot of unfamiliar weapons to you, when the map, and or weapon rotation isn't good it's okay to just wait for the next rotation. Don't be shy to use your specials a lot of people save them, but it's best to use them when you can. I think it's best to use your specials so you can get to the third wave, as even when you lose your paygrade won't drop. Also a lot of people use their specials too late into a wave, and it can't save the run. So if there's a dicey situation it's best not to risk it and use it early. Speaking of paygrade if you're close to a demotion (under 40) you can stop playing, and when the next rotation starts your paygrade will go back up to 40. Some eggs aren't worth collecting. This is more important for higher levels, as it's just too dangerous and time consuming to deliver those eggs. You don't have to leave all of them but maybe collect one or two and move onto the next incoming boss. The last tip is pay attention to your stats when a run is finished, as it'll help show you what you need to do more. It can help show how you might need to collect more eggs, kill more regular salmonids, or play more carefully to prevent dying as much. That's all! I hope you have some good sessions and have fun playing salmon run!
These scores were fun, but I'm more impressed by how we managed to get Cohozuna on every single shift we had a good run. Don't ask me how.
Huh
According to my calculator that is a less than a 0.001% chance but don’t quote me on that
Okay yes that's very cool and amazing and I'm surprised how that happened but I have a tip do not let bad Salmon run players help you
Hey Brian since there's going to be more big bosses like Cohozuna what do you think the next one could be based on?
Yeah, that is extremely strange, and I trust you didn't cut any content...so the fact you had Cohozuna all four shifts, back-to-back, is an anomaly that would be very hard to explain... I guess you and your team just have beyond amazing luck? Or maybe it's the high egg count? ...I mean getting 200+ constantly is a feat hardly any team can do...although you guys did spawn Cohozuna on the last one with only 167 eggs, so I assume that theory is debunked...

Because Walls = escape routes = LIVEING. everyone should do it, really.

It can help show how you might need to collect more eggs, kill more regular salmonids, or play more carefully to prevent dying as much. That's all!
