- Top 500 in Splatoon 2 for the average person doesn't come easy as your success rate for winning in X rank has to be extremely high maybe higher then you're used to. For a Pro Player despite winning a bunch, Top 500 STILL feels Impossible to get when stuff like this happens!
Hopefully they fix point distribution for the highest rank when Splatoon 3 comes out!

How to win at clam blitz
1. Lose most of the game
2. Win in one push
Sounds about right
And then get no points for that :)
*that or play rs inkbrush*
For me, it’s more like
*How to win at clam blitz*
1: you just can’t
2: wait until next ranked mode to play
Wins a match: Here's one point
Loses a match: Back to S+ you go buckaroo
This goes to show just how crazy that japanese dude must've been to hit 3100. Imagine if they were all +1 +2, he must've played hundreds of games without losing.
Yup after a while its +1
That is dedication, I would had left after the first thirty minutes.
I think you get more points in Japan because the players are better bc more players. You get more points, but the games are on average far more difficult
riu kugel? He straight up has video evidence showing that what got him there was a +18.
Japan doesn't suffer from this, only the west.
Japan is matched up with japanese players consistently, which are always higher ranked. US is matched up with US players, which are extremely low ranked (power level, I mean), meaning you get shit like this. In my area, I'm getting 0 points in the 2300s, which is extremely low, and I've grinded to 2500s multiple time. I took a -43 for a single loss in the 2200s in clams yesterday. Matchmaking is bullshit.
@@toastwalrus yea, zero was the only western player to get 3000, and it was an absolute grind
My favorite part about Rank is getting at most +5 if the game was feeling generous, but loose just one match and get more point deduced than what I made that whole rotation even if that was the only loose I had.
Yep, or the loss isn't even your fault but you lose 30 points because of crummy flankers.
It’s so demoralizing, having taking 30 minutes to earn ten points, to lose 20 in a knockout from the other team.
The reality of Splatoon 1's ranking system is back in Splatoon 2...
I'm glad at least someone on the western end is posting this. It's extremely unfair for those of us westerners that can get up to 2500s. Japan doesn't have this issue at all, and gets points even up to the 2900s.
The thing that I fear most from splatoon3 is nogami butchering the matchmaking again and making it impossible to get higher ranked. The point disparity is bullshit and makes it impossible for most westerners to regularly get up to top 500 despite having the skill for it.
Alternate Title: This is why Western pro Players struggle to gain X Power
Nah the title should be: This is why Western Pro players to gain X power by Starbucks WiFi.
How to win in Ranked: Start losing
Win
You're only winning when you're losing
8:12 precisely what people have to understand in ranked. Objective is more important than kills. You (general 'you'; not DUDE) get all the kills but the zone is still in the opponent's favor. Clam blitz ESPECIALLY applies to this
fr the chances of people getting teammates that does both the objcetive and getting kills are slim 😟 what’s the point of getting a lot of kills if your team loses in the end bc you didn’t contribute to the objective?
The amount of stress and anxiety that thatsrb2dude is displaying at 9:20 shows me that I made the right choice to just stick with my twenty-two / twenty-three hundred rank marker, a long time ago 0/
Xd
6:23 I would hate to be one of the reasons that we could not capture and this is why I have anxiety going in to play ranked in any mode.
"How To Be Good At Clam Blitz" You can't be
monkaDUDE
Idea: instead of losing points from individual matches, you can play several games during that map rotation that collectively add to your score.
At the end of the rotation, you earn points based on your win/loss ratio and the average power level of the games you were in. You can only gain points if you won more than you lost, and only lose points if you lost more than you won. And- you must get at least +1 or -1 for each game won/lost in the rotation (yes wins and losses cancel out).
I feel so with you. I understand that X has to be hard since it's the highest rank, but the difficulty shouldn't come from the randomness of the scoring. I think Nintendo did it this way because they failed to create a system that could award points based on how well you played.
They can only compare the power of the players and add that randomness. But beyond that, this aspect is way too exaggerated. You should never get 0-3 points for winning a game because it always feels like a wasted 5 minutes.
It's a pity that this aspect destroys X-Rank so much, because otherwise it's a great thing, because you can always get to the top without playing third party tournaments or something like that and not be stopped somewhere, like it was in s+.

Yoo the thumbnail is next level
I really love the thumbnail picture i hope that face becomes an emote if it isnt one already
Dude: this is how you be good at clam blitz *dies twice*
Me: but i already do that
9:13 the face of ranked right here
i would love to know how the point giving and taking system works bc it feels like rng at this point
I doubt I’ll reach top 500 in any mode, but I’ll keep trying to get there.
Just keep on the grind g
Just do placements the moment the month starts :)
The other day I was playing Splatoon 1 and for every game, you either won or lost around five points. We were so lucky back then.
If you look closely enough, you can see the light leaving Dude's eyes with each +1, +0, +2
*wins with 40 kills and pushes most of the objective themselves* nintendo: +0 take it or leave it.
Just be glad they arent giving +-1 points at this point
+1 = Exceptional Gameplay
+0 = Great Gameplay
-1 = Good Gameplay
@@kingwoomy8781 wrong, -1 = exceptional gameplay, +0 = beyond exceptional gameplay, +1 = hax

Cool clam blitz tutorial
Will be sure to make use of it next time I play the mode
imagine winning most of your matches but still having a negative point gain
The two things I blame my losing streak on the most is the stages and the team kits
Realistically its probably the team kits and my ability to help push back to regain the lead, cause I am really bad at that
But when I do get a good game man it feels real good
it does make sense, that at your level, you are not supposed to be getting a bunch of points while the big majority of Top 500 (players mainly located in Japan and South East Asia )are working, at school or sleeping. You have to play between 7:00 pm to 1:00 am Japan time to snatch the points away from the top players.
10:00 my man is smiling but internally is dying.
It’s gonna be a ‘quint’ eventually

robbed 😔
Win with 14 kills? Get a +0/+2 victory, you're welcome!!
U lost no matter the circumstances? Too bad, -14 n' scram.
love what u do DUDE. ur the best :D
i feel your pain💀also can i say i love your music choices for the background lmao
Worst of all imo is the fact that even when you win points later on at around 2500-ish Istg it feels like you gain less points then you lose meaning one slip up will set you back twice as much as a win will pull you closer. Reaching top 500 was hell grind on steroids.
We need more of this type of content
This makes me fear for JayMoji.
This is like that you are in a rpg game and you want to level up. However, each enemy gives you one exp.
Love the content dude! Keep at it :)
Appreciate it!

Mom get the camera!
dude on the thumbnail reminds me of matt from wii sports
The amount of times I’ve gotten +0 and +1 this month has been more than the past 2 years. I literally cannot get past 2450. Makes me wanna cry 😭

When you win a game in rank X: +1
When you lose a game in rank X: -50
love clams, esp when i can communicate with my boi. coordination is so important.
Got a +0 yesterday when my power was still at 2160. Truly yikes.
Ouch. I once got a -30 some in the low 1900s

Fish out of water: 13:57
Im terrible at splatoon 2 but recently discovered your vids and love 'em.
the struggle to get over 2500 really speaks on the saturation of lower rank players
"My bomb is huge!"
- DUDE 2021 (please don't ever say that again lol)
Game might as well subtract points as you win at this point lol
My sister saw the video notif pop up, and let's just say, she has some questions when she saw dude's face on the thumbnail.
I could never imagine what it would feel like to win and get 0 points ;-;
The very definition of, “Fix your game Nintendo”
Im praying for the next game. I hope they make a better system for rank X or maybe do a new one
Send this video straight to Nogami so we can be assured S3 wont be this painful lmaoooo
When you climb a ladder but you're lagging, the game.
Clam blitz on morray towers hurts me.
5:10
I would’ve lost -50 and I’m not even exaggerating.
The point system is completely jank. You work hard for a win because your teammates don't help and get +1. You lose a game you have no hope of winning no matter how godly you play, -25. You win 4v3 against a team that has a DC, +55. It can happen to you.
The system is also completely unfair to people who only have limited time to play. Can't ever see top 500 unless you play in the first week of the month, or devote all your time playing the game.
I really really really hope splatoon 3 fixes the match making system
Petition to make the thumbnail face an emote
PLEASE
7:44
boomba!
I just wanna see a montage of all the 20+ kill game victory screens with a clip or two. I bet it would be like 10 minutes long
I feel like the eyelash isn't the only reason your eye is watering
Thatsrb2dude: suffering from success.
i honestly hope that in splatoon 3 the scoring is a bit different. you should earn 1 additional point for every splat you get when you win/lose
for example, if you win a match and get 7 splats, you should earn +7 additional points. so let’s say you would earn 5 points for winning. in total you would earn 12 points. (5+7=12)
if you lose you would reduce how many points you lose. so if you would end up losing 15 points but got 7 splats, then you would only end up losing 8 points. (-15+7= -8)
this is to prevent from earning +0 because in all honesty it’s not fair to earn 0 points while you’re trying your hardest to win. it takes fun away from the game. you won, so you should expect to receive a reward for winning.
for losing it prevents other players from affecting your score too much. sometimes other players just suck and end up not contributing to the goal. they either get 0 splats or don’t do objective. it’s not fair to lose -18 points when you see your teammate get 0 splats throughout the entire game. it’s not fair to lose so many points just bc someone else didn’t contribute to the game. especially since we don’t have a way to communicate with our teammates besides “booyah”, “this way” and “ouch”
Whenever I see his notification on my phone I know it’s gonna be a good video
that thumbnail is nice

And, just think, we're stuck with this until Splat 3~!!
if you only play on NPCs lobbies don't think that you are going to win +50 points lol
9:13 Bruhhhhh...
Dude: *wins multiple games*
Splatoon 2: Well yes but actually no.
For dude its a blessing to just get +1
When I saw the thumbnail for the first time, I went full lmao mode lol
We can all agree that 13:58-14:03 is the best part of this video right? Lol
Hey yo, just askin', why do u prefer the Forge Pro than the Kensa? I mean, splat bombs are the freshest :D
bubbler
I wish they could give points based on your performance and not the power levels. Like for example, you earn a lot of points if you mainly focus on the objective and do well on defense. And say if you lose for not following the objective, you'd lose a ton of points. And only a few if you tried to do everything on your own.
Here's my offer Nintendo. Take it or leave it..
The thumbnail lmao😂
You have such good state of mind..
How to Gud at rank
1. Have a good weapon and gear
2. Get one win in knockouts
3. Lose the game
Sounds about right also +1 and +0
for winning probably the game hates us 😂
Top 500 do be saying impossible right now. I couldn't even get near top 500. At least, there be a slight glimpse of top 500 for you.
What your built for this weapon?
Eyelashes in his eyes yet still plays amazingly 😳
aka dude teaches us basic math for 14 minutes
When he said "you got +30?" That was me who got it :)
Tell me how to use the forge in such ways, sir. Please.
Top 500 is impossible because you're not Chocopero
dude: 1 one point yay
me: good job 😂😂👌👌
OMG the +19 reaction xD
He looks so happy 😀
How is your aim that precise with the pro?? O-O
practice!!
I thought X rank was only toxic if you were using the flingza roller lol
Who is this guy!?
His aim is incredible
This was painful to watch
Why does it give you 0 points some times?
Supposedly the amount of points at stake in a game is based on the skill levels of the players. If you beat people with higher skill levels you will earn a lot of points. However if you just steamroll some noobs their value is nothing compared to yours so you gain nothing from the victory.
Yea
That thumbnail tho
The game is trying to get dude to play a different mode
