Hey so um... I managed to get the most kills on my team and over 1400p with the dynamo roller. I don't know how to say this but... I think I like the weapon??
An interesting note on Tent in the Cooler meta: The QR on cooler can lead to some extremely oppressive pushes, where killing an opponent only leads them to be down for a couple of seconds - and tent can help a lot against that as a way to slow them down. Not only that, but tent can also stall even in 2v4 situations, which allows your own players to get back in, and due to how relentless enemy cooler pushes can be, this, again buys more time against, and even with your own cooler pushes. Effectively, cooler meta is quite good for tent - not neccecarily because of the cooler buffs itself (as you said, it's sort of a mixed bag for tent), but because of how the cooler buffs impact the 'macro' aspect of the game.
hammer on tent was such an interesting combo, some tent players will argue that you can surpass the need for a hammer by just hitting one shots consistently but was still a fun combo nonetheless, it made a lot of sense to give an agressive special that can just hold forward on such a slow and punishing weapon that is often forced to hide in it's shell when preassured, it gave it a moment of release for it
for those who actually care: main wep amazing with little downtime but edit stronger because edit has an actual kit (and is an amazing main weapon in and of itself) while s3 mini is held back specifially because of its kits
Fellow blaster player! Hello! I don’t think aged too well, I mean, big bubbler now tanks most top specials and has proven to be quite difficult to approach with multiple weapons. I accidentally used on the recent keyboard splatfest, and I was able to focus on holding positions and supporting teammates from there while splatting anyone that tries to approach me.
Been binge watching these videos recently. They remind me a lot of the pokemon competeive history videos by False Swipe Gaming (in a good way). Keep up the great work!
Ink Storm’s recent buff to healing while in kid form would give it amazing synergy with the Mini Splatling and I agree it would be a awesome special for it. Fizzy would also be great for mobility and poking, but I think Torpedo and even Angle Shooter would also be great picks. Torpedo can obviously function similar to Burst Bomb, but so does Angle Shooter, with quick paint and quick damage. Furthermore, Angle Shooter works more similarly to Disruptor than Toxic Mist does, with how it can mark and trap opponents. And finally, it is absurdly cheap, allowing Mini multiple full charges after using one. I think Angle Shooter and Ink Storm would be my dream Mini Splatling kit.
