I can totally understand why the flipper flopper boss might look easy. But I think this actually might be quite a problem for weapons that have a hard time painting. If anything, this boss will definitely make it so you need to stick by your teammates to help you defeat it if your weapon sucks at painting like the blaster that they showed.
I feel like flipper flopper will be kinda like drizzler in some senses, where it never appears to be an immediate threat until there's 10+ bosses about and it becomes the metaphorical straw that breaks the camel's back, causing you to lose the round.
Honestly feel fish stick is really similar in that regard as well. Doesn't really appear like a threat unless it's right in front of basket or smth. Wonder if it can move again.... That'd make it incredibly imposing
Just imagine that thing showing up while you have the GrizzCo slosher... You're DEAD Wait, maybe it can hit it while it's in the air, since it's armor piercing.
The theory of the squid roll parrying damage sounds terrifying especially for snipers or even rollers. Speaking of squid roll, what if there will be some perks benefitting this ability? Can you imagine squid roll being faster because of swim speed?
Honestly, I’d be okay if it parried sniper shots because they come from so far away, but rollers still need their one shot, maybe from a closer range as it deals reduced damage?
The special meter is just the timer, remember. There are no charging specials in Salmon Run, this might be a new gimmick specific to special depletion after activation in Salmon Run, or it could be related to the number of rounds in the crab special.
@@juddmcveeno1fan You are right! At 1:32 on the trailer, while charger shoots down the snatcher, we can see the icon of Killer Wail 5.1 having 23 bars just like the Crab
Flying snatchers are by far my favourite part of this, it’s gonna make snatcher optimisation in overfishing so fun and complex. Also snatchers could always carry multiple eggs…
My first reaction to seeing the bars in the trailer was "Oh cool, special bars Salmon Run exclusive". Although it might be unlikely I do still think it could be a possibility that those are just for salmon run and not for the other modes
I don't think so, its such a minor thing and would barley make sense since you don't charge it. Having those bars makes it easier to tell special charge.
I just assumed that they were bars indicating a duration timer since you still only have limited special uses in salmon run it wouldn't make much sense to be able to charge them in that mode (might delete this comment after I watch the rest of this video btw)
@@ProChara imagine if it was a salmon run exclusive though The bars were still there after activating the special, and (while this could be a technical error) this suggests that the specials count down/empty slowly like in regular modes rather than emptying the special all at once. This would be a lifesaver in salmon run because it could save your special if you die. Branching off of this idea, these bars could act as a timer as well. If you were to activate your special, empty it halfway, and die, you could activate it again from that point. It's also possible you could recharge the special like in regular modes, and once you use it completely it's gone. Grizzco clearly has a lot of cash to spare in Splatoon 3, and has been known to modify weapons. In Octo Expansion, we learned that specials can also be modified thanks to the end fight. Maybe Grizz figured out how to tweak his special packs, or got ahold of the technology they use in Turf Wars. This is all a bit of a stretch, but it's interesting to think about. ^^
Let’s say that the squid roll ability ends up negating enemy damage in multiplayer. While it is definitely going to be game changing, it won’t be in the sense that it will break the game. Think about it this way. Charger weapons can one shot players when it is fully charged right? All shots fired that isn’t a full charge will not one shot. However, that does not mean that a full charge shot does only 100 damage. Correct me if I am wrong, but I remember the damage of a full charge shot being somewhere between 160 and 200. Either way, the damage that a Charger deals to do the one shot exceeds the base health of an Inkling, which means that even if the squid roll negates just a little bit of damage, it will not protect them from a fully charged shot from a Charger weapon. The same is true for the one-shot splat hitbox from a Roller, which deals more damage that is necessary to splat an Inkling. I am envisioning squid rolling as a technique you use to assist in retreating from high-pressure situations against weapons of the shooter class. For example, if you have already taken substantial damage, you might be able to survive if a stray shot that would normally splat you hits you while you are squid rolling. That said, squid rolling won’t save you if you do not have an escape route and it won’t save you if you cannot get out of range of the enemy in time.
Salmon mode looks like it's gonna be a lot more chaotic, which is great because it matches the energy of the salmonoids and also just looks really fun!
I think the tape thing might be the actual release date, perhaps the "summer 2022" will be pulled off to reveal the month and day later? Not sure but if that is the case its probably june or july juding from the lenght of the tape
Hearing the armor sound effect makes me wonder if they had dev armor to prevent the screen from getting muddied by damage or to prevent them from dying during their recording session more than thinking there is a parry on squid roll
Something I noticed, later in the song if you listen closely you can hear tartars garbled speech noises from octo expansion, maybe tartar has to do with why salmon run is returning?
The flipper flopper counter play might seem easy, and probably is On it's own If that ring really acts like a splat zone this means all the other enemies can prevent you from painting it or even paint it back last second
I think youre right about the special thing but its the same for killer wail so it might just be 230p as a default for salmon run since you dont charge special
I saw another day on Twitter that the fish stick might have a deeper function. Basically, after you kill the boss, notice how to stick itself will stay, making a perch for snipers or an escape option. I think this true, what do you think?
I'm worried about this game. Not only does the return of Salmon Run conflict with the lore establishing that it's something that happens every 70 years, but it's also a returning game mode from the previous game (that we have on the same console...) full of re-used assets, with the only new things shown being two bosses, a map and a new mechanic. This could have perfectly been just a Splatoon 2 update, and if after all this time all they've shown is this, I'm really worried that there simply isn't too much to show at all. I'm worried that this might just be Splatoon 2.5, and for the moment I don't feel like they've given me a reason to believe that's not the case. Also, this pretty much deconfirms Mr. Grizz being the main villain of the story mode and... man, that kinda sucks. I really wanted to see Salmon Run and Grizzco as a whole being more relevant than just an alternative gamemode you can get more money from. So much for "Save our salmons" I guess... and what about Little Buddy anyway? I know I'm probably being overly negative about this, but, in my defense, I'm a Pokémon fan. After what happened to THAT franchise, I think it's only natural I'm going to feel concerned every time I see a red flag. I really don't want another one of my favorite game series to get that treatment.
I have to say while I am slightly concerned as well, all the trailers they’ve shown so far are following suit with the trailers they showed in splatoon 2 before the direct. They really didn’t show a lot in splatoon 2 either before the direct, also I feel like there was way too much foreshadowing in the story mode trailer for Grizzco to at least not be INVOLVED in the story mode, personally I think what they’ve shown in this trailer is unfinished and I feel we haven’t seen everything they’ve added to salmon run yet. I think it would be difficult to add a completely new mode like salmon run without complicating the lore a lot, so I can see why they decided to keep it. TL;DR I think people are rightfully concerned, but I would just wait a little longer for more to come.
hmm the Charger glow looks like a charge indicator, the "no laser" might be a spectator mode thing/option. or if the Charger is on your team, there'll be a laser pointer too like it did before or make them easier to tell apart from the other team
I also noticed that the little jingle the samonids on the fish stick sing is very similar to the jingle the four thangs in the octo expansion make when they become a blender
LETS TALK ABOUT HOW SPLATOON 3 FINALLY HAS AN ESRB RATING CAUSE THAT MIGHT MEAN THE GAME IS ALMOST DONE???? also the tape is 100% covering the release date.
I know the most bosses are based off of the specials in salmon run. (Drizzler=Rainstorm, Flyfish=Tenta missiles, Steelhead=Bomb rush) So I think we also got a sneak peek of some of the specials in this trailer. Maybe that boss that flies above and traps you in a circle of ink is a special. Like you have a jet pack type thing, or you fly up like booyah bomb, and you throw down a big circle of your ink. Which could be really bad for your opponent if they’re out of ink. Because now they are stuck. Ink resistance would be a good ability to go against that special. And special power up would make your circle of ink bigger. Idk what special that fish stick could represent though.
The Fish Stick kinda inks like a sprinkler in a way, so maybe a Giant Sprinkler special that has to be defeated by climbing up it? Seems unlikely and I don't think it's be that good but it's something.
Actually I thought Steelhead was based on the S2 rainmaker if anything at all, and it has more in common with the Booyah Bomb and Bubble blower that were added post launch. Also since most, if not all, of the bosses from S2 salmon run are returning in S3, & 3 has entirely new specials, they are likely not going to follow that format with new bosses as the flopper clearly represents the objective of Splat Zones, & fish stick clearly represents tower control.
@@aronspiker72 I thought Steelhead was similar to Splashdown. Both create a slow, but large and powerful explosion, and the Player can shoot up to the Steelhead's head or up to the Splashdown user, splatting them before they can attack.
I dont care what happens in salmon, that armour better not carry over to multiplayer vs matches. I dont need that flanking charger to have an on demand get out of jail free card.
There are many if not every boss salmonids coming back from splatoon 2 such as the drizzler and stinger.. Does this mean that ink storm and *sting ray* are coming back as specials
And me? I’m just here hoping we get some new Grizzco weapons. And that Saltspray is finally converted into a Salmon Run map. It would be very appropriate IMO (maybe Bluefin Depot, too)
Actually, they are only able to carry 3 eggs at most. And for each egg group there will be 1 snatcher spawning. Saying you splat a Stinger and a Flyfish, and you and a teammate grab 1 egg each from the Stinger pile. There will be 2 snatchers spawning: one is grabbing the 3 eggs from the Flyfish pile, while the other grabs the 1 remaining from the Stinger pile. When it comes to night waves, snatchers will only grab 1 egg.
Sometimes when I play Salmon Run I run into at least that one player who just is guarding the eggs and spamming This Way like the eggs will disappear as soon as they leave 😂 It better stop now that you can pass the eggs to another teammate in Splatoon 3. The Egg Throw is such a good new mechanic and it will be very helpful :)
I’m thinking the new bosses will be more focused on having a lot of them active at once instead of less bosses but stronger ones, both the new ones seem very very inking focused.
Chara, look at when they double rolled again, the first roll ALSO has the armor noise. I think that the squid roll isnt actually invincible or a parry but basically just has ink RESISTANCE, hence the glowing. Ink armor also glows but its WAY more bright. Meaning that squid rolling might be resistant but not invincible.
Looking back on this 10 months into the game now it is really weird seeing people's opinions on things we are so used to. Like double squid roll. Why was Chara so scared (maybe not right word for it)? Even before we knew for sure about the super armor. Dunno, just find it fascinating.
what if there’s a new main ability that lets you hide the laser from the chargers, that’d be wild 😂. it’d make sense why we see it here because salmon run doesn’t use abilities
i think the flipper-flopper (hate that name) is going to be easy early in the round but TERRIBLE in the late (especially in higher levels) because painting becomes so hard when it gets that chaotic, and it rules a medium sized ares that you just can’t go in
the laser could also easily be teammates only, even outside of salmon run. there's no reason why your team's lasers should be hidden from you, and it would explain why we've seen both
I also wanna point out that every single boss from the past game returned. Besides Missiles which was already confirmed and Ray which was turned into wail 5.1. We could possibly get rain (the drizzler) and Booyah Bomb (steel head) back
It is entirely possible that the charger laser is only visible to teammates so you can lure people into a chargers range without them knowing. Im assuming they didnt change the laser from 2 but im being hopeful.
I don’t know if anyone else has noticed, but the egg throwing sound is almost identical to the sound the toaster from hero mode makes whenever it shoots one of its pieces of toast at you.
Nice to see I have to learn how to snipe people as they jump around like fish out of water. It’s going to be so fun using these extra movement to move around the map and combat. I wish they gave us a date but at least it’s not winter
I think that the duct tape at the end is there because you can see duct tape on the helmets of the inklings, so putting it there fit with the theme. You can also see it at the top of the Salmon Run logo where it says Splatoon 3.
0:29 if we get that it means that weapons will have the same or more paint as Splatoon 2 which is sort of good imo if your weapon can't paint. But they will have less special output. So no more 10 missiles a match. And your actual special is powerful and will be a game changer alone because it has a lot of points for it. So overall you can do more stuff alone like splatoon 1. Like paint output and more powerful special.
I was honestly pumped when I saw that salmon run is returning. I actually love the game mode. My only gripe is that they locked ability chunks and tickets behind it. But if they instead actually allowed us to use our cash to buy these things, than we'd all love salmon run for what it is.
I think in Salmon Run, points for special may just be set to the highest by default since you don't charge them yourself and they're not tied to the weapon you have
the UI and graphics (mostly UI) look very copy/paste from splatoon 2. the only notable differences are the squid icons behind the weapons, the ink tank, and the special meter. i just hope they meant it when they said “game footage not final.”
Imagine Tetras With A Special That Isn't Drastic On Endlag Or Startlag and.. Squid Roll Twice Roll 4 Times Use Special Thing For Ink Again Squid Roll Twice Roll 4 Times I'm having an existential crisis
More things that I noticed: - It seems that the Splattershot now has terrible jump RNG? (Its ground shot accuracy is still good though.) Just look at when the Inkling girl tries to paint the fish stick. - It seems like the Roller's horizontal fling is faster? By going through the footage frame by frame, it seems like the startup of the horizontal fling is now frame 15-18 (hard to get the exact number though). In Splatoon 2, the startup frame is 22 frames. - Similarly, it seems like the Roller can attack faster between flicks. Also, it seems like it now can attack roughly every 10 frames between flicks (was 20 frames or something in Splatoon 2). Again, hard to determine exactly by how many frames, but it seems noticable faster in the footage presented. - Speaking of the Roller, it seems like it still has the garbage RNG hitbox in Splatoon 2. However, in the trailer where they showed of the Big Bubbler special, the Roller's horizontal flick seemed to have a good consistent hitbox but with slower startup. I just wonder how it will turn up to be. Please don't mess it up for the third time, devs...!!
as a charger main if squid rolls does have basically armor IM GONNA CRY every single time, 1. your gonna peak 2. you just.. if they squid roll you can’t hit them if 2, this is gonna be pain
The new squid and octopus icons to tell if you're team is dead/have specials look really bad, like REALLY bad. They look bloated and oversimplified. That's just my opinion
Splatoon 3 has a dodge roll. Dark souls has s dodge roll. Enter the gungeon has a dodge roll. Therefore splatoon 3 is a bullet hell that is the dark souls of the splatoon games. E
The fish stick climbing is on an inverted slope, squid doesn't seem to be jumping to climb The tape can be seen on the new grizzco uniforms which seem inspired from offshore drilling (as is the fish stick) Without improvement to the netcode, the instant paint + mini-zone might be a nightmare Killer Wail 5.1 has 23 bars It feels like the steelhead cycles faster than in Splat 2, but I might be wrong on that one
I think the bars on the special gauge aren't a rigid 'each bar represents X amount of paint', but rather an easier way to gauge how close you are to your special, though 23 is a weird number for something like that when an easy '5% per bar' metric would exist with 20 bars... ^^;
Fish stick looks painfully easy for any long range splatling to deal with. You don't even need to climb it, just charge and shoot. It's like charger being a hard counter to Steelhead, or shooters being a hard counter to Stingers.
I just noticed the Killer Wail 5.1 icon on the top right when charger shoots the flying snatcher. This has 23 bars on the meter like the Crab's one so I’m not sure if it has to do with the special’s points. I’m leaning more towards this being an indication for the duration of the special. Okay, we know next to nothing for now but that is just a thought of mine.
I can totally understand why the flipper flopper boss might look easy. But I think this actually might be quite a problem for weapons that have a hard time painting. If anything, this boss will definitely make it so you need to stick by your teammates to help you defeat it if your weapon sucks at painting like the blaster that they showed.
I feel like flipper flopper will be kinda like drizzler in some senses, where it never appears to be an immediate threat until there's 10+ bosses about and it becomes the metaphorical straw that breaks the camel's back, causing you to lose the round.
Honestly feel fish stick is really similar in that regard as well. Doesn't really appear like a threat unless it's right in front of basket or smth.
Wonder if it can move again.... That'd make it incredibly imposing
Just imagine that thing showing up while you have the GrizzCo slosher... You're DEAD
Wait, maybe it can hit it while it's in the air, since it's armor piercing.
@@mayanightstar I mean hitting the floor with it can still cover a large area,as long as it's not a wall and you dump the slosher quick enough.
The Flipper-Flopper stays in the air for a bit, giving ample time for any weapon to cover the zone.

Bluefin Depot doesn't make sense as a Salmon Run stage. Saltspray Rig could work, though. The NILS statue also could work, too.
Yep, an analysis already. Splatubers about to go into overdrive
btw snatchers were always able to carry multiple eggs in Splatoon 2, up to four eggs in total
Actually, they are only able to carry 3 eggs at most. And for each egg group there will be 1 snatcher spawning. Saying you splat a Stinger and a Flyfish, and you and a teammate grab 1 egg each from the Stinger pile. There will be 2 snatchers spawning: one is grabbing the 3 eggs from the Flyfish pile, while the other grabs the 1 remaining from the Stinger pile. When it comes to night waves, snatchers will only grab 1 egg.
Sometimes when I play Salmon Run I run into at least that one player who just is guarding the eggs and spamming This Way like the eggs will disappear as soon as they leave 😂 It better stop now that you can pass the eggs to another teammate in Splatoon 3. The Egg Throw is such a good new mechanic and it will be very helpful :)
I’m thinking the new bosses will be more focused on having a lot of them active at once instead of less bosses but stronger ones, both the new ones seem very very inking focused.
5:51 The glow disappears right after the sound effect plays. The "armor" only blocks a single shot.
...Poor blasters...
Chara, look at when they double rolled again, the first roll ALSO has the armor noise. I think that the squid roll isnt actually invincible or a parry but basically just has ink RESISTANCE, hence the glowing. Ink armor also glows but its WAY more bright. Meaning that squid rolling might be resistant but not invincible.
Looking back on this 10 months into the game now it is really weird seeing people's opinions on things we are so used to. Like double squid roll. Why was Chara so scared (maybe not right word for it)? Even before we knew for sure about the super armor. Dunno, just find it fascinating.
what if there’s a new main ability that lets you hide the laser from the chargers, that’d be wild 😂. it’d make sense why we see it here because salmon run doesn’t use abilities
i think the flipper-flopper (hate that name) is going to be easy early in the round but TERRIBLE in the late (especially in higher levels) because painting becomes so hard when it gets that chaotic, and it rules a medium sized ares that you just can’t go in
the laser could also easily be teammates only, even outside of salmon run. there's no reason why your team's lasers should be hidden from you, and it would explain why we've seen both
that's exactly what i was thinking. im hoping it's true
The crab and specail charge look diffrent in salmon run, so I think it's just salmon run exclusive.
I also wanna point out that every single boss from the past game returned. Besides Missiles which was already confirmed and Ray which was turned into wail 5.1. We could possibly get rain (the drizzler) and Booyah Bomb (steel head) back
for the arrow things that make you talk to people id like to have a "come this way!" "aww man..." "booyah!" and "grrrr!" or somethin like that
Salmon Run coming back is a bit strange since we have little buddy but I am glad that it is back since it is so fun
It is entirely possible that the charger laser is only visible to teammates so you can lure people into a chargers range without them knowing. Im assuming they didnt change the laser from 2 but im being hopeful.
Maybe squid roll is supposed to replace substrafing? Idfk
Snatchers were already able to steal more than one egg. Max of three, just like the flying ones
I don’t know if anyone else has noticed, but the egg throwing sound is almost identical to the sound the toaster from hero mode makes whenever it shoots one of its pieces of toast at you.
Nice to see I have to learn how to snipe people as they jump around like fish out of water.
It’s going to be so fun using these extra movement to move around the map and combat. I wish they gave us a date but at least it’s not winter
The egg throw will be terrible imagine people in Freelance overshooting the basket or throwing eggs off the map
Could the glow/laser thing on charger potentially be a new gear? Would that be too broken?
I think that the duct tape at the end is there because you can see duct tape on the helmets of the inklings, so putting it there fit with the theme. You can also see it at the top of the Salmon Run logo where it says Splatoon 3.
I think they will untape the summer 2022 tape in the next trailer or so. showing the *release date*
If the specials are expensive thats a good thing and I think the crab lasts for 10 seconds which could be why its 230p
5:26 they could already carry 3 eggs at once but you probably never see it
The flipper flopper could be a headache when paired with other boss's like the maus as just a way to stall you
0:29 if we get that it means that weapons will have the same or more paint as Splatoon 2 which is sort of good imo if your weapon can't paint. But they will have less special output.
So no more 10 missiles a match.
And your actual special is powerful and will be a game changer alone because it has a lot of points for it.
So overall you can do more stuff alone like splatoon 1. Like paint output and more powerful special.
3:05
or maybe the teammates can only see the charger glow and not the enemy's team
I was honestly pumped when I saw that salmon run is returning. I actually love the game mode. My only gripe is that they locked ability chunks and tickets behind it. But if they instead actually allowed us to use our cash to buy these things, than we'd all love salmon run for what it is.
I think in Salmon Run, points for special may just be set to the highest by default since you don't charge them yourself and they're not tied to the weapon you have
I am scared that the squidrool will replace the Dualie class
Is it me or he forgot to analyze the crab special?
Just happy to see Salmon Run getting dedicated coverage, it's my favorite game mode
I like SPLATOON 3 I’m getting it
6:09 Luckily I main tetra
Love how he didn't cover the hidden qr code
Really hoping charger lasers aren’t visible to enemies, I was pretty excited to see the laser gone in the previous trailers
One thing for sure this gonna be intense
the UI and graphics (mostly UI) look very copy/paste from splatoon 2. the only notable differences are the squid icons behind the weapons, the ink tank, and the special meter. i just hope they meant it when they said “game footage not final.”
as a tetra main i think that double squid roll thing is HORRENDOUSLY funny
Imagine Tetras With A Special That Isn't Drastic On Endlag Or Startlag and..
Squid Roll Twice
Roll 4 Times
Use Special Thing For Ink Again
Squid Roll Twice
Roll 4 Times
I'm having an existential crisis
More things that I noticed:
- It seems that the Splattershot now has terrible jump RNG? (Its ground shot accuracy is still good though.) Just look at when the Inkling girl tries to paint the fish stick.
- It seems like the Roller's horizontal fling is faster? By going through the footage frame by frame, it seems like the startup of the horizontal fling is now frame 15-18 (hard to get the exact number though). In Splatoon 2, the startup frame is 22 frames.
- Similarly, it seems like the Roller can attack faster between flicks. Also, it seems like it now can attack roughly every 10 frames between flicks (was 20 frames or something in Splatoon 2). Again, hard to determine exactly by how many frames, but it seems noticable faster in the footage presented.
- Speaking of the Roller, it seems like it still has the garbage RNG hitbox in Splatoon 2. However, in the trailer where they showed of the Big Bubbler special, the Roller's horizontal flick seemed to have a good consistent hitbox but with slower startup. I just wonder how it will turn up to be. Please don't mess it up for the third time, devs...!!
as a charger main if squid rolls does have basically armor IM GONNA CRY
every single time, 1. your gonna peak
2. you just.. if they squid roll you can’t hit them
if 2, this is gonna be pain
Hmn... Well you know what? I'm still committing to chargers. And bows. I can't wait for like mini bows and a heavy-duty bow. That'll be amazing.
The new squid and octopus icons to tell if you're team is dead/have specials look really bad, like REALLY bad. They look bloated and oversimplified. That's just my opinion
That summer 2022 tape thing got me hype for some reason like WHAT DOES IT MEEEAANN
Oh my god you predicted the BLASTER CLASS.
I never actually expected that lol
Splatoon 3 has a dodge roll. Dark souls has s dodge roll. Enter the gungeon has a dodge roll. Therefore splatoon 3 is a bullet hell that is the dark souls of the splatoon games.
E
The fish stick climbing is on an inverted slope, squid doesn't seem to be jumping to climb
The tape can be seen on the new grizzco uniforms which seem inspired from offshore drilling (as is the fish stick)
Without improvement to the netcode, the instant paint + mini-zone might be a nightmare
Killer Wail 5.1 has 23 bars
It feels like the steelhead cycles faster than in Splat 2, but I might be wrong on that one
WAIT, there is the salmonoboss with stingray !!! Does that mean stingray is back ??????
I think the bars on the special gauge aren't a rigid 'each bar represents X amount of paint', but rather an easier way to gauge how close you are to your special, though 23 is a weird number for something like that when an easy '5% per bar' metric would exist with 20 bars... ^^;
maybe the squid roll options could maybe depend on your weapon instead? like less mobile weapons getting more and less mobile ones less
6:17 Pause right here.
Do you see it?
*Its a big flipper flopper.*
That means that we might see enemy size variants in Salmon Run: Next Wave.
4:46 love that one of my favorite splatubers is talking about my other favorite splatuber lmao
I think it looks like the date changed because Splatoon 3 was originally planned to release in 2021, but because of koiroana, it was delayed to 2022.
Fish stick looks painfully easy for any long range splatling to deal with. You don't even need to climb it, just charge and shoot. It's like charger being a hard counter to Steelhead, or shooters being a hard counter to Stingers.
I just noticed the Killer Wail 5.1 icon on the top right when charger shoots the flying snatcher. This has 23 bars on the meter like the Crab's one so I’m not sure if it has to do with the special’s points. I’m leaning more towards this being an indication for the duration of the special. Okay, we know next to nothing for now but that is just a thought of mine.
Nightmare fuel? Will my weapons be good? So many questions, not enough answers.
In the reaction you said Crab was changed but didn't talk about it here.
Hallucination?
