Trizooka has counter play, but that doesn't mean it's not unhealthy for the game right now. It's designed to be used as a long range tool for taking players out and it does that well with the recent damage buff, but it currently also works as a panic button and it's one of the most spammable specials in the game. Toning both of those aspects back a bit would make it fine, in my opinion.

I looked up the definition of "panic button" and it stated that it is "to be used in case of an emergency" so you should save them for when you need them. So you're saying that trizooka is both spammable, and it's used for emergencies? I do believe that it's too strong and it needs nerfs, it should have it's cast-nerfed as well, but I think the arguments people have about it and the evidence shown are poorly thought out.
@armoredanteater609
@armoredanteater609 11 месяцев назад
@tanookiesgrin9756 no, panic button specials are used as soon as you get them. If you watch a lot of top level play, you can see a single zooka taking a team from 1v4 to 1v1. That shouldnt be possible with something you can whip out in .5 seconds

The only difference is that you get more time to react to it, but if you're in a bad position, you're gonna die anyway. You're right, it shouldn't be the end all be all, it's cast-time should be nerfed, it should have a smaller radius, splattershot should be 210-220p, but the evidence that people use is just them making mistakes and they start screaming "nerf it!" With no citation. I'm just asking for better evidence.

Those people are probably thinking just within the scope of trizooka's balance itself. Even though the criticisms are directed towards player decisions on movement, because their argument mindset is "trizooka only", they receive the criticism and before thinking about it interpret it as a defense of trizooka. This is evidenced by their video caption where they seem to be conflating arguments on awareness with the mechanics of trizooka.
@MinoriGaming
@MinoriGaming Год назад
My point of view in this matter is that of design consistency. I think there's definitely value in the idea of being aware of the special economy and not putting yourself into the position to get shot by a Trizooka, but at the same time I think it is understandable that people would expect that it should be reactable. Every other offensive special in the game has a pretty significant windup period before it becomes emminently dangerous, a factor the Trizooka simply lacks. Inkjet can't fire immediately and needs to launch itself upwards before it can start firing, Tenta Missiles take time to launch and to travel, Reefslider takes time to broadcast its path of travel, ride along that path, and even has a delay before its final explosion, and all of these have unique sound indicators so you know they're going off even if you can't see them. Trizooka on the other hand, plays no special animation, has no windup time, and even the special sound effect that alerts you to its presence is less of a factor because it can literally fire before that sound effect ends. We can go back and forth forever about whether or not it's a skill issue to be in the situations where you get shot in the first place, I get it, but I do think it is very understandable to be frustrated with a special that breaks a rule every other special in the game follows. Everything from Reefslider to Inkstorm to even *Big Bubbler* gives you a delay to process that the special is in play and react accordingly. This is also to say that a level of proactivity impacts *every* enemy special, and it can feel quite annoying to have a mechanic in the game the fully leans onto that vector of proactivity, when every other special has proactive and reactive elements.

Zooka doesn’t auto win games. But it is definitely overpowered at the moment. There is some counter play, but the degree to which you are expected to constantly avoid the possibility of trizookas being farmed and then instantly popped is unreasonably restrictive upon play styles. I think one thing a lot of zooka defenders ignore is how zooka interacts with the weapons it’s on. Two of the most powerful zooka weapons right now are splattershot and carbon deco. Both weapons are close range powerhouses that the primary strategy of many other weapons want to try to zone out. Deny them the paint to get in and make sure that if the enemy violates your area of control they get punished for it. These same behaviors of making sure you can deny the enemy splattershot/carbon from getting close to you are the same behaviors that will leave you exposed to a instant pop zooka shot. So when fighting these weapons you need to simultaneously be zoning them out while also simultaneously be aware of the threat that at any moment they could turn into an e-liter with a full charge and punish you for what the game has trained you to do against these weapons. Let’s also not forget that forcing the enemy team to run away and hide is still a form of value. An enemy team that is all behind cover out of fear of being sniper by trizooka is an enemy team that isn’t exerting control over the map. It’s not like you even need to pop the special to exert this fear over the enemy either. Because the startup is so fast, just having the special charged means you need to respect the zooka user. and they are getting value of of zooka without even popping it. This is why trizooka having a near nonexistent startup is so powerful. It extends the time with which you need to respect the possibility of a special, far outside the time frame when you need to be able to respect any other special. And I think that makes trizooka drastically stronger than other damaging specials in the game right now.
@marcooshendlesun4211
@marcooshendlesun4211 Год назад
I shouldn't have to be uber-paranoid about an instant e-liter range death shot when every other damaging special gives me a warning built into the special. If every special was this way it would be annoying, so why isn't it okay to be annoyed by this example of it.

As and addition. The tri-zooka problem doesn't bother me personally that bad. But coming from a casual group of friends I play with. I don't want to have to be this good to just play the game dude. But splatoon specifically seems to have such good players that you NEED to be caught up to even stand a chance. Games that have been out for much longer I can hop on and still get qued up with players who are DEFINITELY NOT competitive level at the game. Maybe a few of them are, but for the most part everyone has pretty average levels of skill. I think splatoon has had such a cult following for so long, that balance of skilled to, well, non-skilled players is very unbalanced. and maybe this tri-zooka debacle is just becoming a final straw for a lot of players. I mean i'd be annoyed if I felt like I had to train myself and go watch someone explain how to play just to be able to play... oh wait...
@desmondruhling
@desmondruhling Год назад
In my opinion, there are three main problems with trizooka: lack of startup, huge radius size, and spammability. I’ll start with the lack of startup- and this one is quite simple. It just makes the special feel unfair to fight against- you can’t really be aware of a special when it’s used instantly after the gauge fills up right in front of your face, so I think that there should be startup added. Secondly, the huge radius size means that you’re almost always going to take damage if someone aims at you. 60 damage, after the buff… is a lot! It will even splat you if less than half your health was gone… which doesn’t really feel fair. (Another part of this is that some weapons can panic pop zooka and shoot at the floor to splat you with the lack of startup, which also doesn’t feel fair) Finally, zooka’s spammability, especially on shooters is a problem. If a zooka weapon can get 6-7 of them per game and have another zooka weapon to support it, it kind of just feels like you never get to be safe from a constant threat of being cross-mapped. (Especially since the 60 damage from one zooka can combo with that of another…) All of these aspects create a special that just feels like pain to play against. If I was a dev for the game, I would probably add startup frames, decrease the radius size slightly and make squeezer and vshot 200-210p.
@flopps1051
@flopps1051 Год назад
All of this. Zooms wasn’t relevant before the 20 damage buff, I don’t see how a simple 20 damage buff suddenly makes it overpowered. People are just encountering it more. It pains me every time I read how Zooka is a poorly designed special because it’s really not. The user gets three long range shots that deal a lot of damage and pierce, so people are forced to move. On the downside, the time between shots is slow and you don’t paint your feet, making you very slow, and the range is long but not unlimited. It’s actually really well designed, just overturned because it doesn’t have Startup like how Inkzooka didn’t

A 20 damage indirect buff is signifigant bc before you would hit 2 indirects and it wouldn’t kill where as now it does. Also before the enemy needed to have 60 damage already on them to kill, where as now they only need 40 damage on them. That’s a pretty big deal because a lot of things do 40-50 damage that can now do a bit of damage and then trizooka can get the indirect kill.

Been using Trizooka since launch it really is just a mind reading game . Pop Zooka in high traffic areas if no one there check common hiding spots. It really is just whack a mole. And if they are hiding behind a wall they will shoot it upward to try and hit you so look up! As a former Eliter 3K user the idea of Trizooka being unreactable is so funny S1 Zooka still jump-scares me. A majority of Zooka deaths are hard reads, luck or just poor awareness. I feel this is an overreaction just like how all the new players claiming Kraken Royale was busted.

Three things you did not even mention: 1) a suction bomb landed on the left, zoning the splatted player out of moving that way, therefore forcing his movement either up the left ramp or right ramp (even without the Trizooker shooter having noticed his typical post-spawn route up the right ramp) 2) there was a small (non-paintable) blackish block on the left on top of the right ramp that the splatted player could have covered behind to be protected from Trizooker shots (at least enough to not be splatted instantly) 3) you can see when an opponent or your teammates have their Special Gauge fully charged in the upper HUD (and the Mini Map, which was the case here), so the splatted player should have expected the Trizooker being fired soon So yeah, that was definitely avoidable despite Trizooker being a bit overpowered right now. edit: added the info that the Special Gauge being fully charged is also visible on the Mini Map which was also the case here.

Random thought: I remember back in splatoon 2, I learned to pay attention to the enemy special charge specifically because of splashdown, because as "bad" as it was I still needed to be aware of it, otherwise I might try to camp someone's super jump only to be completely destroyed by a splashdown that's impossible to react to after it's used. I bet if that was still in this game, more people would be conscious of how important enemy special awareness is, lol

@brandonellis9239 Год назад
I disagree. The startup sound (very low box-hitting sound) and time-before-use for trizooka is way too silent to actually give other players awareness about it, as opposed to something like the ultra stamp (quick high pitched ring). Seeing the subtle rainbow disappear from a user's icon to signify a special is used (as opposed to an actual LOG in splatoon 2) does not give me enough visible indicator. A particle effect on the player's icon would help. No person would realistically take the right wall when approaching the scenario. The top plat there is reasonably safe and has moderate cover in case of shots. It gives immediate access to build up points for special too. The fact that a trizooka shot arches over lots of cover makes it EXTREMELY difficult to take safe positions as opposed to an eliter.

@Ilandria. 11 месяцев назад
This is also my only issue with it; the fact that they can finish charging the special, pop it, and kill you with it within about 30 total frames just feels silly. It means you can't wait to see the enemy's special being available on the UI since the time between it showing up, you seeing it, and dying to it is fast enough that the only way to avoid it is to assume they can pop it at all times if you are close-medium range and in line of sight. I only want start up frames added to remove that "panic instakill when you're in a bad position" stuff. Even like 10 frames would go a long way to making it not an obscenely strong defensive tool without affecting its healthier use cases much.

i did actually watch the stream of the player in question explaining the clip yesterday, it seemed to me as complaining for its own sake rather than trying to attempting to find what he actually could've done differently. focusing on that single 4 second clip does not give any information about his patterns up to that point. like you say part of improving is not putting yourself in questionable situations and relying on your reaction time to save you. the clip owner also made a point of saying the spot he got shot on was still in his spawn and behind cover to an extent, but ignores the bombs being thrown and enemy paint going down directly where he's attempting to move. at some point a player has to recognize the options that the enemy has available to them and choose their decisions accordingly, if the enemy has 2 trizookas and knows you're respawning, it doesn't matter if they have them yet or not, you shouldn't rush forward recklessly cause you should expect them to have zookas soon. reaction time isn't really a factor.

And it's what people WANT it to provide, because that's how influencers, content creators, and suchlike get seen and heard and build a base. That it's a double-edged sword is an inevitable feature, not a bug. The exact same mechanisms of internet fame must also be able to produce internet infamy. Do or say something that lots of people consider foolish, and every last one of them has a direct line to say it to your face.

As much as I agree with everything said, there is a problem of balance in curent Zooka (not a big, but still a problem) Ok for """random""" player on twitter, but when even Madness (probably one of the best player in the western comp scene) complains about it, it means something. It is on twitter, so to be taken with a grain of salt, but in their clip they aren't playing mindlessly or in the open I don't say the shot Madness showed shouldn't have hit, just that maybe it should be a little harder to hit this kind of shot (For those who don't see what I'm talking about, Madness get splat by an arched shot, being on the box between snipe and corner, those pretty much behind cover and beyond the front line)

What's your BlueSky? I don't see it in your links and I would love to find more Splatoon folks to follow there! . As for Trizooka, my only complaint is that everyone is a sniper with it and I can't seem to hit anything. But that is a PEBCAC (Problem Exists Between Chair And Controller) issue that I will resolve with practice. 😅

My problem with a special like this however shouldn't be "im not a competitive/higher level solo que play." im pretty much a casual player who doesn't WANT to focus on things like awareness and potential places for an enemy to be. Now do I want to try higher levels of play? yeah but everything is pretty inaccessible to me because I have no clue how to start. But I digress. Zooka is just too much of a hassle to try and deal with. not being seen or not interacting with enemy ink or not getting out of spawn differently to me means I can't play splatoon. maybe im just complaing like a goddamn scrub and I need to get better but I already know that. I only reached X rank in this game once and my max power was around 1600 on tower control.

Getting behind cover isn't the problem. The problem is that it does 60 damage at a radius that's higher than the width of most covers so that you get hit even if you were hiding.

I realize a special can have a lot of good things going for it (like crab with damage output, HP, duration) and people won’t unanimously share opinions on what they feel are solutions to problems (in this case, nerfs to overpowered weapons). But that doesn’t stop me from being amused by people who complain about zooka being a “panic special” (that doesn’t reposition you or give you any invincibility) or that it’s AOE damage is too high or wide, but then they post a clip like this supporting their case that the special is OP and neither of their nerfs would have saved them.
@XD-nl1wl
@XD-nl1wl 11 месяцев назад
Bro, you didn't mention that in some cases, the Zooka can be really overpowered. The Zooka is like a sniper without line, and it can move around easily without the need for precise aiming and a charging time. When the other team is pushing on certain maps, there are only a few places where you can counter-attack. If you go to these places, you'll be taken out by the Zooka. If you don't, you'll have a tough fight against the other team because you won't be in the 'right place.' Yes, you can wait and see where the opponents are, but Zooka players can do the same. And remember, they are 'pushing', which means the more time you take, the more points you'll lose.

@veronicatherabbit
@veronicatherabbit 11 месяцев назад
I feel like there is a genuine middle ground between both sides and this doesn't particularly need to be a debate. It's always good to understand when you could have done something better and improving by looking back at your mistakes, but in the clip used in this video, you see that the shot's special meter was shown to be full for a fraction of a second, and there are only two exits in the spawn which can't possibly be described as just an error in positioning. There is real merit to the argument that Trizooka is broken since there are situations like this where you couldn't have possibly known it was coming or gone anywhere safer that would constitute as a reasonable decision. I feel like looking back and saying "I need to improve because I was distracted looking at the map or went the wrong way out of spawn" would be counterproductive since there isn't anything this player could have realistically done in this instance. Now you certainly shouldn't blame zooka in every instance it kills you, because awareness can prevent it from getting kills, but the problem is that you need to be aware of the possibility of a Trizooka suddenly being on the map with you potentially in its sight mline at all times when it is present. When a charger is on the enemy team, it's a reasonable variable. The charger is either alive and you have to be wary of its sightline, or it's dead/splatted and you can move more freely. With Trizooka though, there are often multiple of them and it has has a very forgiving hitbox, can be lobbed over walls in certain instances, when it's active the activation sound doesn't have enough delay to properly warn you anyway (and the fact that zooka was worse in a previous game doesn't change the state of zooka in this game), AND cooler/savers make it harder to counter someone building zooka because they'll have it when they respawn (though that is also kind of an issue with cooler I suppose). Now I was mostly countering the argument presented by the side that claims good awareness can always counter zooka because I disagree with this more, but the opposite side is just as extreme, and I will make it clear that I don't think zooka is unfair in every scenario. I think it's most reasonable for everyone to recognize it's overtuned, but not totally broken, and not make it two ends of both extremes. This comment is also not addressed to Gem or anyone in particular, I just thought I'd give my opinion on the matter, because why not? I'm sure most of us can agree though that it is dominating the meta, which is never really a good thing no matter the special, and there should always be a healthy variety of options to keep the game interesting and comps unique.

True. It still needs a wind up time though. It looks silly how fast it is currently. Like, almost buggy or jank. One second there’s nothing. Half a second later there’s a massive bazooka and it’s ready to fire. So I agree but gosh darn do I still stand by the call for a nerf to it’s insta shot.

If you were to take into account for every possible way you could die to the enemy, you would be wrong in some way in every conceivable interaction. To avoid dying to random splat bombs you would have to play slow and careful, being aware at all times, but by being slow and aware, the enemy just pushed further in. Your danged if you do your danged if your not. Splatoon is just a series of unpredictable scenarios where you have to hope you get lucky with your 20% chance predictions.
@themanhimself1949
@themanhimself1949 Год назад
Well, on one hand youre right, you cant *always* go slow and steady because you might lose too much time. On the other, its really not as random as you say. Each game is a different set of players, strategies, Weapons and map. It may feel random, but if you pay attention to what weapons (& kits) both teams have during the spawn cutscene, you will already know factors to look out for. splatoon is overflowing with information (audio cues, HUDS, the map, weapon kits), so i cant blame anyone for struggling to concentrate or notice crucial cues. however, its not completely unpredictable, and *definitely* not random. only lag or hacks will be randomly splatting you. even when someone is camping, you will usually recognize the pattern and act accordingly. stealth, element of suprise, as well as visible threat (like a hydra on an elevated level) are all things your enemies will use against you, but you can too. you dont need to consider EVERY possibility at once while hiding in ink or spawn. but being aware of common ones will help you make decisions fast. like a ninja squid carbon roller -> stealthy, fast & short range -> needs lots of their ink around you to get close unnoticed -> coloring around you to not give them that opening someone squid jumping? before you patiently wait to shoot them, remember what weapons they have. a charged weapon wont splat you first, but a roller, bucket or splatana can. & if youre just standing there & shooting, or sitting in the ink unmoved, someone else might notice and splat you. i dont need to know the location of every weapon, the status of my teammates, dont even need to check the map nonstop. its a balance between information and action. not easy to find, but not impossible either.

I mean, even in your own hypothetical: Sure. You can blame everything on "random" splat bombs. ... Or you could try to understand: * How and why your enemies are putting "random" splat bombs there. * Why you keep dying to the "random" splat bombs. * How you can reduce the chances of you dying to those "random" splat bombs. * How you can punish the enemies who are now low on ink.

We shouldn’t have to be this proactive to avoid getting blasted by a single special. There’s too much going on in a splatoon match be conscious of a random trizooka thatll wipe the team. Plus, it’s boring to stay back behind cover and not engaging just to not get splatted by a trizooka.

That _barely counts_ If someone is in a position to jump you with inkzooka in splatoon 1, odds are they're hiding so that you can't see them at all.

Coming from splat1 experience, my ears are always open for trizooka activation, even after ignoring splat 1 for splat 2 for some years. Splat 1 zooka was also way more unreasonable to deal with due the faster projectile thats harder to see and the lack of startup delay upon activation. It really does get my thinking that the majority of zooka critics didn't get their start from splat 1 or at least had not played it extensively. Keep in mind, a lot of competitive players started from splatoon 2. Those who started competing or content creation since splat 1 were truly dedicated since day 1.

Thank you for this video! I've been stuck at A+ since I lost S at the start of fresh season, wondering what's holding me back. Sorella brella made this the best season yet, but I still couldn't reach S again and that eventually broke my resolve. I've been tilting over 'zooka, my teammates, everything, and I don't usually tilt. This level of awareness, thinking about other players' perspectives in an active way, I think is the missing piece for me. The game is in its best state it has been; I want to continue enjoying that.

What really annoys me about the salty player that posted the video is that he actually hurts the argument for nerfing Zooka. By showing a blatantly careless play and blaming the special, it forces people to ignore genuine issues that the special has because they're too focused on the absolutely irrelevant complaint that he made in the video! I saw another player who showed a genuine problem where he got one-shotted through a wall, which is an ACTUAL issue that needs to be fixed, but that complaint didn't get nearly as much traction as the irrelevant one with the bad play. Bottom line, if you want Zooka nerfed, show real examples of its problems, don't blame the special for your own lack of awareness!

I do think this clip is absolutely a matter of not swimming into the enemy team. Like the same play just dies to a roller or blaster under that ledge, for example. However, I do think that Trizooka is still generally extremely overtuned for being unreactable. You simply cannot play the entire match in fear that you will instantly die any time any of the 3 Trizooka weapons on the enemy team has a special or may get it soon. It only takes around 30 frames to fire the first shot, which is too fast to react to the audio cue or animation, and it can just delete you as you are spawning, or any time you fire your weapon as a backliner or midliner, or any time you attempt to approach these weapons. If you are a midliner with a slow kill time (e.g. Wiper, Rapid), you can often get the first shot at your ideal range against these weapons and be punished for it by them reactively trizooka-ing you in the face with an unavoidable shot.

part of this issue is not realizing that no matter how unfair the way you got splatted is, you still got splatted. Dying from lag is understandable, but it doesn't change the outcome of the situation. A trizooka shot that you feel you couldn't react to still doesn't change the fact you got killed in spawn and now have to wait even longer before you can play the game again. which is a detriment to the team.

Whenever someone says they want a weapon or special to be nerfed, and the one in question is fairly balanced and good at its job [Blob Lobber and any kind of charger come to mind immediately], I have to think it's because they don't know how to deal with said weapons or specials. And some don't want to, because it means they may have to look at themselves and recognize they're playing badly, or something like that. I say this as a player who's not really even close to being the best.

Since I play backline I know for a fact that a inkzooka will be aimed towards me so now I been taking into account what weapons have the inkzooka special and when their special is ready. I also listen for the sound of when Inkzooka is activated so either I take cover or take a position where I can snipe them when they are unaware of my position. It’s Twitter I don’t have a account on there. Some people don’t want to take criticism and learn from them, they just wanna complain. Recently I been trying to give my friend advice on Splatoon since he can get quite tilted so I watch his replays to try and give him feedback.

I've been killed by a few trizookas this season that I couldn't have reacted to, and I've seen it as a wake-up call of sorts that my special awareness needs work.
