Opening Heavy Flank, Why Not!?

GG everyone! Thanks for having us IPL 🙏My team, Cafe with the Brone🥇

This is one of the strongest positions in the whole game for heavy or hydra to be #splatoon3 #splatling #heavysplatling #clips

Welcome to #sws26. youtu.be/ysMhbOOaY1g

Actually might be the largest improvement in this patch its just better in every way. I hope this leads to better x rank data and better balance changes because of that.

Biggest update to sendou ink ever is now live! New layout, friends system, SQified tournament subs, site-wide chat, new mobile UI and so much more... Huge shout-out to @hfcred.dev for all the work on this with me. Wouldn't be possible without their efforts. #sendouink

Big change I havent seen anyone talk about yet: The top 8 for the NAL will be based on your TOP 4 SCORES, not your TOP 5. This means teams are required to play less this season, if they want.

NEW VID I competed in an Area Cup...and got absolutely destroyed. A loss is a chance to learn though, so what can studying replays from this event teach us about how these players are so good? 🔗Link: youtu.be/IuE-DDpqP1k

Announcing a new user page design for sendou ink, now in preview for Supporters. It allows you to customize your preferred page out of around 30 widgets (at launch). Naturally there's a bunch of completely new elements e.g. badges authored, peak SP, LFG post links, bio markdown... #sendouink

I will be doing my part to help raise the overall power of the scene by hosting events like these I hope you guys will participate weekly 🤍 #compsplatoon

Top 8 area cup has both explo and nautilus rep. “Health bars made ink storm a location special” crowd is winning #compsplatoon (insert ‘comps dont matter’ rant here)

If you didn't see the Grey + Jordan + Melon PB, Melon uploaded some matches from their perspective here. youtu.be/tWTofE_mn5o?... If you need me I'll be rewatching this interaction 5000 times until I can space as perfectly as Melon does. #compsplatoon #splatoon3

SPLATOON 3 IS SO FUN RIGHT NOW I CAN'T CONTAIN IT 🫣 🤪🤪🤪🤪

Players need to be less demotivated after a loss as well comms will go quiet when that should neverrrr happen. I find it odd that comms go up when you're winning when it should be the opposite way around idk. This is just general things I noticed let's see if I'll see more in the future

everyone wants a reason to complain why they're losing when they should just spend more time at the mirror

Maybe Its just my own bias but it just seems like a weaker mentality to complain so heavily about a weapon being OP or braindead or unhealthy, when it effectively just came out and everyones matchup experience is either nonexistent, or 8 years old in 2 prior Splatoon games. We should learn first?

splatoon 3 tier list based on how many little structures the weapons can place on the map

The Splatoon scene is SO MUCH KINDER than people give it credit for 😭 I literally reached out to so many great players about the hitbox changes. And EACH ONE of them were so kind. Reach out and ask questions to people you're curious about. They will respond kindly 💖 #compsplatoon

I've never made a FA post before. Completely new territory, I don't know how to make things fancy. This has the basics ( I think??), spreading word would be amazing. Would like to find a crew with that drive for results, could do a project anything really. Reposts are appreciated. Ty friends!

Hydra feels amazing in 11.0! Insane clip Nemesis 🔥

Dapple feels insane, its also like the only good mobility/short range slaying weapon with 2 unique and powerful kits and was already seeing insane tourney use before the hitbox/slider buff. Might actually be a top 5 weapon at this point for sure top 10.

Insane glow up for a former bottom tier. Can we do this with some more weapons please?

Doc ver: docs.google.com/document/d/1... This one has all mistakes fixed. if any other mistakes pop up, please let me know and ill correct it.

Patch 11.0 is now up on the site. Includes new params to Build/Comp Analyzer & Obj DMG calc. Also added the SJ nerf to Build Analyzer and a new AURA toggle. Thank you Lean for the params as always. Have fun with the new patch everyone! #sendouink

Very interested to see cooler usage this patch. Cooler respawn + SJ time pretty heavy impact imo 7.133s->8.133s. At those margins I'd imagine you feel it. Pencil harder to get kills for people not as adept with it. Aura abilities overlap 4/7 New death disincentiver (gives enemy aura)

FULL WEAPON HITBOX CHANGE LIST THREAD (WIP) 10.1.0 -> 11.0.0 from leanny.github.io/splat3/param... The numbers will be the "attack collission radii" and shows the difference between each shots hitbox size in distance units. All collission with stage terrain remains the same as 10.1.0.

And then you end on the floor wondering why your legs feel weak like a dumbass

First impressions of #splatoon 11.0 as an anchor player (multiple posts if you feel like reading through!): • Changes are overall great and FUN. Game feels v solid. • Changes really add to the explosive nature of the game. 
 • Aiming feels better / more consistent / precise for sure. Love it!

I need low tier weapons to start getting the dynamo treatment next time we go for buffs no more of this .2% radius increase or 5% better paint ever again.

Your mate mid-game: he is one oh my god he is so weak somebody hit him literally 1hp left And then when you watch the vod back you see

Absolutely insane work here Sendou + Yaga. Have always dreamed of a tool like this and even started to try and put a crude one together in sheets but never got around to trying to finish it. THIS IS AMAZING 🔥🔥🔥

I think the #1 thing I want out of the changes is just changing the whole q system, its too long and rotations are just not good I feel like its not unfeasible. We could also get rid of the X rank region split.

I think there's plenty of reasons to be excited right now... #splatoon3 #splatoonart #blender3d

I made this fit over the holidays but didn't really look at any render preview of it due to laptop not handling it well and just wow omg

I think everyone for a resolution for 2026, is to generally just be more kind, people go through a lot, and one compliment can make someones day, week, month, year, so be kind :)

NEW VID As one last piece of content to end off the NA League, as well as this year, I present something I've wanted to make for a long time - a supercut! Every episode covering Gourmet Race's NAL run in one video, and with lower audio viable for background noise 👍 🔗 Link: youtu.be/9unH3s6A8DQ

2025 was a big year for sendou ink! There's a few more days remaining in the year but I wanted to take this chance to take a look back at a selection features that were shipped this year: League/LUTI support Bsky connection Team editors SEO improvements Notifications [1/3] #sendouink

Timeliness is a valuable skill and you will be respected more if you are consistently on time. No one expects you to be perfect, but there is a difference to being 1 minute late and 5 in a tournament setting.

CCA Divisions 2, 3, and 4 Topcut will be happening across the SplatoonTourney family of channels today starting at 2pm ET! Division 2: www.twitch.tv/SplatoonTourney Division 3: www.twitch.tv/SplatoonTourney2 Division 4: www.twitch.tv/SplatoonTourney_alt

With the Splatoon 3 NA League playoffs happening in two weeks, I created a dashboard that analyzes statistics for all teams in the Top 8 playoffs for head-to-head matches! You can find and interact with the dashboard here: public.tableau.com/app/profile/... (More information below)
