Splatoon Patch Nerfs and Splatunes

For the most part this is [url=http://www.destructoid.com/splatoon-s-first-balance-patch-nerfs-the-kraken-294879.phtml]nerfs[/url] to Rollers who have been annoying the hell out of me lately.

As for [url=http://music.gamechops.com/album/splatunes]Splatunes[/url], Pretty good music but you have to buy...or enter $0 and get it for free. and who doesn't like "Kid Now!, Squid Now!

[quote=Kazzooey]Kraken was OP but it was also pretty easy to outsmart them. Just run away and let them tail you (they're usually stupid enough to do that) and hose them down whne they're about to transform back. I love making those Kraken abusers feel like retards lol.[/quote]

The thing that I hated is that in Ranked you ocaasionally don't have a huge area to quickly retreat. I mean if the other team has control....if they are smart there area is full of their ink. Kraken in those scenarios can easily be 2 kills. Two players have a good chance of holding off a bubbler, not the case with Kraken pre-patch. When you combine that with Ninja Squid...rollers were starting to massacre players.

I never really felt any huge advantage of Ninja Squid; always felt like you could just soft-tilt instead and use that slot for something better. The Kraken nerf is needed but it primarily helps rapid fire weapons. Ink Resistance is pretty nifty overall; I'm really wondering what they're going to adjust it to...

When your in the enemies ink you take more damage, I believe it is double. You also move 90% slower in enemy ink. Ink Resistance pre-patch allows you to move with a only 20-30% movement penalty AND the damage you take is equivalent to if you were standing in your own ink.

Something like that, not 100% sure since I don't have all the data.

Very happy about the rollers + ninja squid nerf. They'd just pop up, splatter you, go back in ink.
