I had to be extra ruthless just to give Team Strawberry wins.

Mostly used classic N-Zapper to boost my teammates, but had to switch for a more precise weapon to unleash Crab Tank for long range hell.

Plus, swapping for Ninja Squid.

Barnacle and Dime is still an annoying map, even on Tricolour.

If the next Big Run is on Barnacle and Dime, I'd let the Salmonids take it.

Highly unlikely but still.

Based on Tricolor performance, I think Team Strawberry might take this one.

Won a 100x battle, and got to Vanilla Ruler with a Tri-color win. Now to celebrate with a caramal chocolate cheesecake pint, or maybe non-vanilla/strawberry/mint ice cream cake

Made it to Vanilla Ruler +1, and unsure if I'll continue. But I've done my part for the base of cookies and cream

Final(?) stats:

  • 43,033 normal clout
  • 56,578 pro clout, 1,565.5 Splatfest Power (high of 1,589.3)
  • 49,169 Tricolor clout

Probably the first time my normal clout has been my lowest stat

I played some Tri-Color rounds, but didn’t do well. My luck improved when I switched back to normal rounds.

Yeah, for a casual player, Splat isn't worth getting worked up over. Just enjoy the funny squids and octopuses and rep your favorite flavor

(I am aware I sometimes get kind of heated)

Welp, I think it's about time I call it a night.

Final Stats: Strawberry Ruler

  • Normal Clout: 106,312
  • Pro Clout: None (don't really care for pro matches)
  • Tricolor Clout: 63,018
  • Final W:L Ratio: 22:15 (Normal); 5:9 (Tricolor)

Overall, I think this is the best I've done in any Splatfest. Strawberry probably isn't gonna sweep or anything, but I'm very satisfied with how I played this weekend.

Well, my last match was a x100 against the Mint Miscreants that I lost. But when I got out, Shiver alerted me that a different Vanilla Villain team won their x100. So it evens out.

I saw a looot of Vanilla 10x / 100x / 333x victories in the news reel, with only the occasional Strawberry or Mint popping up. I'm not gonna call it just yet but I have a good feeling

[up] I should haven chosen Vanilla because apparently, most of my friends playing choose that team and I was starved out of a 100x battle. sad

I lost my last battle against Mint.

I will be fine if Strawberry wins. A Mint win would be unforgivable. Toothpaste eaters don’t deserve a victory.

Well, that well and truly fucking sucked. I was busy all weekend so only had about an hour to play right at the very end... and promptly went 1-for-10, just barely got to Defender. What a miserable experience.

Here's my final stats, as a Vanilla Ruler +1.

As for my win/loss records:

  • Open
    • vs Vanilla: 0-1
    • vs Strawberry: 6-6
    • vs Mint: 4-8
  • Pro
    • vs Vanilla: 1-1
    • vs Strawberry: 5-3
    • vs. Mint: 3-12
  • Tricolor
    • Regular
      • Attacking: 3-4
      • Defending: 3-9
    • Mirror
      • Attacking: 3-2
      • Defending: 0-1

So, for non-mirror matches, that leaves me with an overall record of 24-42. Not really that good of a showing once I break it down like that. I did decently against Team Strawberry, but awful against Team Mint.
