Chase pulling the Chara card to push his point even further LMAO but seriously though, great video! I’ve always wanted to give dousers a try and this convinced me even more
Some people be watchin dis like “nahh you wrong bro” but when they here chara say its good they go “…….uhh hehe um m- maybe ill give it a try” bc fsr people do that anyways great video
I’ve wanted to use douser dualies but thought I couldn’t really work it with the quick respawn comeback build I use on splatana stamper, but I guess I could give it a try now :3
I had some troubles with the dousers came out because of their ink consumption and poor shot accuracy, but using a little intensify action, ink saver main, and run speed they have felt amazing to play, I’m not a dualie guy but I’ve really fallen in love with the dousers
Very well put! I totally agree on the sentiment of this weapon being more effective when played a bit more passively, but aggressive play in right situations certainly gives it that hint of versatility that some weapons in the class lack. I think ink mine usage in key areas of maps gets overlooked a ton because those well placed mines will definitely score you some good and FREE information when you have an enemy player outside your sight line.
It's cool to see a weapon that isn't just "short range and long range mode!", a totally new crossfire focused weapon with a close range punish option feels cool. Kinda like a fighting game zoner
I was one of those highly excited for the Dousers on release. So much so that they became my first ever 4 star in the Dualie class. I love them...but man can it feel like a metronome when it comes to playing it, really cause of it's accuracy in spread mode. I know it can't be laser accurate but when I'm trying to play my range with it, sometimes it hits the enemy, sometimes it just misses completely, even when I refresh the RNG. I'm hopin' for an accuracy buff as I feel that's the only thing holding Dousers back from being picked more. And a second kit, these things are MADE for Inkjet. Doesn't deny that the weapon feels satisfying and fun as hell to play though.
I’ve been using douser dualies since release, it’s one of the most versatile long range weapons and it feels so devilish to either outrage everything or just kill it in under a second ☠️☠️☠️ these things are so evil srsly i love them. I agree w everything you said chase, wail is like one of the best possible specials this could’ve gotten since it can roll cancel ☠️☠️
I made one myself, I personally prefer to just use a run speed build (like the first example build I put in the guide) but thermal isn't bad on it! Thanks for watching also
Since you inspired me to pick up dualies as a class, I'm still learning to adjust to having dodge rolls at all, So I might genuinely try picking up the Dowsers and see how I like it.
The Douser ALWAYS reminded me of an upgraded version of Dapples - the singular dodge roll of the Dousers is the Same Distance as both dodge rolls with the Dapples. Dapples were my first S3 Main, and Dousers are exactly what I wanted
As a Squeezer main, I really appreciate the Douser Dualies having a "panic dodge-roll option" for when someone gets way too close. It's a really refreshing all-rounder of a weapon imo.
I'm a jet main and the dousers are probably my new favorite weapon and I would probably say its closer to jet than squeezer. It plays very similarly except you're trading a bit of range and accuracy to have access to a dodge roll. As for buffs, I'd probably want a painting buff and maybe a slight damage buff.
Most of my fave weapons actually have wail, and although it isn’t my favorite special per se, I def think it’s slept on. I get kills almost every time I pop it. Ppl freak about how “good” burst bomb is in this game but wail is that x1000
Yeah I think this happened to me too. I was finishing getting Glooga Deco to 3 stars the other day and noticed I was rolling only one time a whole bunch. I didn't realize how used to dousers I'd gotten until then.
I don’t think that the recycle brella is that bad. it is really good with Ninja squid because of its amazing damage and really quick combos with the line marker. Also the big bubbler is good as bigger brella shield because the one on the main weapon is not the best
I think Douser dualies only need a paint buff and maybe an ink consumption buff. And the recycled brella prolly just needs to use less ink and have slightly faster brella regen. I would also add a classwide change to narrow all the brellas shoot spreads.
For me at least, Dousers feel like how you describe Dualie Squelchers. It just feels much more passive than the rest of the Dualies that I couldn’t really connect with it unlike the rest of the Dualies.
chase can you make videos on how to get better at weaker weapons? i use 96, mini, and dread wringer and I have been constantly losing. thanks if so :) anyways I'm pretty early and I loved this video! (1 min late)
it's okay, i mean in general tho because I switch my weapon almost every single match probably, if there is a weapon that you play that is mid tier I probably play it. thanks for responding@@Chase247
I just wish Ink Mine didn't have such an awkward lag when placing them if there was less lag the sub would be more useful offensively than it already can be, it would generally feel more fun to use, and it wouldn't even neccesarily be broken I think
I'm currently waiting for a 2nd kit for it since the main is interesting but I'm not interested in Killer Wail 5.1 or Ink Mine. When I used it in Salmon Run I realized it has serious potential
I just feel like the douser dualies are just average. It’s not shit like the brella, but not amazing like squeezer. Personally I think it’s fine, but not my cup of tea.
I really wanted to like Dousers, but after a while of trying I just couldn't click with them and stopped using them. I did get some success with them early on and they were super fun then, but I couldn't make it stick. That was really disappointing since I knew how good they could be when things went well. I would like to give them another shot at some point, maybe by making a new build. I think I really do need that ink saver main.
What about Ink Vacuum? I feel like that special would be perfect for the Dousers if you think about it. Ink Vaccum is mostly used on Long-Range Weapons like the 96. Gal and Jet Squelcher, it might synergize well with the Dousers, and it can refill your ink tank as well save you from bad situations.
Kinda disappointed to see my 2 biggest issues with douser dualies not acknowledged at all. -inaccuracy, base damage, and fire rate of spread mode means and fall of damage leads to a lot of 5-7 hit markers and no splat situations. I understand that sometimes you just need to accept that all you’re getting is positional advantage out of an engagement, but its rather disheartening when you know you would have gotten a splat with any other midline weapon -the lag on the roll kills your mobility, and no fire rate or accuracy increase can truly compensate for that. Giving up the ability to quickly make a substantial poke and then disengage if needed is very costly.
@@puellabella3580 i mean, i kinda did bring up inaccuracy and fire rate. i mention that it is slow and inaccurate, but the weapon has a large bullet size hitbox (especially compared to something like dualie squelchers) so the shots still hit more often than not. it is costly, but thats why you only commit to the dodge roll when you know its beneficial. otherwise, just stay in spread mode and dualie hop if needed to mix up your movement. a main of run speed + IA REALLY helps with this also as i mentioned. and again, if you want to run a qr build, this can let you play around your dodge rolls more and play more dangerously
i like the dousers bc they actually hit their shots and have a good, reliable turret mode. and the range is good enough to warrant using it, unlike the dualie squelchers imo
Dualies are the best weapon class,but can you make a video about my favorite, the dapple dualies. They are WAY more underrated cause of their range. Of course it has less range but it colours better and 3 hits.
@@Chase247still, even if it was good it does not focus on the fact it has a shield and instead damage and range. But the regular brella SHOULD have that damage and range and this new brella could’ve been like a reflection brella or a brella that you launch into the air or something like that. But instead we got this
What's up Chase? edit: I was first so no one would be like "I'm first I'm better than all of you." If you do that, don't do it, nobody cares and it just makes you look like you are 5 years old.
i just encounter a lot in x rank, but i know dynamon plays them sometimes. also seen a few notable jp splatubers using them but i dont know their names
@@Chase247 i just think it was funny u were making a good case for urself and then resorted to LOOK EVEN CHARA SAID SO PLS BELIEVE ME xD i completely trust ur analysis i also play dualies and i gotta say u play some meaaaaan dualies. ur dousers guide is the reason why i wear 2 subs of IA and a main of run speed but i like to spam wail so i have main of special charge.. but yea it def doesnt need ink saver unless ur just spam rolls for some reason
