You know, some time ago I said they should have a Splatfest featuring Ridley vs K. Rool, winner gets into Smash. I suppose that's kind of irrelevant now.

We're all splatting to become royalty, and last I checked one side had four kings. I think the choice is obvious.

Your preferences are not everyone else's preferences.

And now I need to get back in the swing of things after playing Smash all week.

I'll probably wait around until evidence becomes more conclusive. Or possibly miss out entirely because I'm busy with Stardew Valley's new content.

I got up to Hero Champion last night.

It wasn’t as consistently awful as it sometimes is when I’m on a losing team but also there were a couple mirror matches so I don’t know how to read the meta

Wanted to push through to royalty but my roommate is using the switch

I missed a couple of splatfests. They changed some things apparently. Clout and all

My Splatfest is off to a terrible start for Team hero. After my first 7 Pro Mode matches, I'm 0-5 against Team Villain, and 2-0 in mirror matches. My starting Hero Power is 1903.1.

I'm probably not going to do this Splatfest. Too occupied with Stardew Valley's latest update.

I just reached the rank of Hero King, through Pro Mode. I've won two 10x battles, but mostly I've been getting my butt kicked.

Now I'm going to play some normal mode.

Here's my final stats for this Splatfest.

  • Rank: Hero King

  • Normal Mode
    • Win/Loss Record
      • Vs Team Villain: 7-5
      • Vs Team Hero: 4-7
      • Total: 11-12
    • Clout: 16,035

  • Pro Mode
    • Hero Power:
      • Initial: 1903.1
      • Highest: 2094.4
      • Ending: 1904.9
    • Win/Loss Record:
      • Vs Team Villain: 7-17
      • Vs Team Hero: 11-5
      • Total: 18-22
    • Clout: 49,920

I did a lot better in Normal Mode than Pro Mode. While I got more clout in Pro Mode, that's mainly because of playing more matches and those two 10x victories.

So it looks like Villains win in performance while Heroes obviously had the popular vote.

My paranoia worked against me. But I'm not mad.

Not surprised, I had a lot of Hero vs Hero matches and every time I looked, Villains won a multiplier.

At least we don't have to actually handle them in gameplay.

I'm always amused by how easy it is to forget Splatoon!Earth is a death world and inklings evolved as such.

Not many species can laugh off a point-blank frag grenade as a harmless prank.

That's the kind of thing that happens when exploding and respawning is part of your biology.
