After watching an entire series with this weapon, my opinion of it has changed a little bit. While the weapon is still not great, it looks like it's good at taking out weak opponents and being a distraction for the enemy team. I cannot wait until this weapon gets a second kit though
Honestly I think torpedo wave breaker would be the best kit for this weapon, focusing on how it can kill weak opponents and distract, and wave breaker giving info to your team and being a nuisance for the other team.
As someone who uses undercover, it’s very good at staying and locking down a location. If it sets up mines, then you can’t rush it down. Even with multiple people, it technically has reefslider to help with that. The problems is that since it’s only good at locking down a location, it can’t do anything to push, and the main weapon itself is weak. It could be a very good defensive support weapon like a Brella should be if Nintendo cared about it
I decided to do this myself with chargers my least liked weapon class and reached S+ I learned that I am surprisingly good with snipers and they are actually pretty fun you inspired me to do it with your series of course, anyway congrats!
i commented on your very first video in this series abt how its a support weapon. ive seen the light. if they buffed undercover (and fixed brellas in general) this could be goated as a slayer or whatever mix of aggressive and passive is called in this game. like the fact that you can block splat bombs and sticky bombs from damaging you at all its INSANE. loved this series i hope you do more of these with other weapons it would be awesome 🦐
Just bring the Sorella kit back. Splat Bombs and a cheap baller made for a very explosive offensive kit that can focus on annoying and distracting (because despite what haters say, you’re not so weak that enemies can ignore you). I guess both crab and reef slider can fill in for the role of the baller, but having no bombs is terrible for the weapon.
@@ninebrains4769 HARD AGREE. i dont play the other brellas at all but i can see why people liked those kits way more than the originals. i think if undercover brella had a kit with torpedo that would help it a bunch since its basically just a better version of ink mine (chip damage + spotting enemy). oh and buffing reefslider is just a good idea in general.
I’m impressed at how optimal you were able to use the main weapon despite only having just picked it up for this challenge. My only critique is that you didn’t really use ink mines, especially in the higher ranks. I know without sub saver it can be pretty costly, but when you have a wipeout or right before you use a special, it’s an optimal time to just throw one out. It’s especially useful in tower control and splat zone as a great disruption tool and one of the weapons most important assets if you can utilize it properly. Honestly I’m more surprised you were actually able to get as many splats as you did with the main alone. Better aim than me
I get the series is over but i still wanted to say some tips for playing undercover. Use ur mines like they give you money, mines are actually so much better on the undercover as people think they are, you can set them up and when people come to fight you they detonate them and each mine that explodes on them is like 35 damage, and it combos really well with the undercovers 3 shot. a mines explosion takes away one shot that the undercover needs to kill, and u can set up 2 mines. and they can be used while u keep ur brella shield up, unlike if it has burst bomb, u need to pull down ur shield to throw it and i think burst bomb wouldnt be as good on it as people think. Also, pay attention to ur shields hp, bcs whenever u dont have it pulled up, the shield regenerates health, and quite quickly too, so if u always keep it up it wont regen and break but if its weak, go into squid form for a sec and let it regen, ur shield is everything on this weapon, ur the only weapon u can shoot at people with a shield up(unless u count tenta always putting out theyre shield and shooting with it up) also reefslider is good on the undercover too, its 60 damage indirect perfectly combos with its 40 damage hit, and its easy to finish off people, or at least trade with people if they survive ur reef. and u may be thinking, but its hard to get aa reliable 40 damage on it, its only 40 damage if u hit all shots, actually, unlike all other brellas, as long as ur crosshair has an x on a player target, it will always do 40 damage, unlike a tenta brella or something where sometimes it will only do 62 damage even if u have a crosshair, the undercover brella only does less damage when u actually miss ur target. so as long as u actually hit shots, ull be fine, just like every other weapon in the game, u need to hit ur shots to do good with it
Every time I go 0-3, 1-3 and and feel like I suck I always go back to this video because it gives a confident boost when I see all the struggles he went through too.
Yo, you should upload the recording VODs for this series as a separate playlist. I’d absolutely watch the heck out of those. And I’d also love to see what other weapons you can carry up the rank ladder
omg, that is so crazy amazing that u actually got the undercover brella user title, out of all weapon titles, out of all titles that u got even a weapon title, out of all capsules, and u got it on ur second try, thats so magical lmaoo
somehow this series is motivating me to get to at least A rank (as someone with carpal tunnel and dogshit eyesight that exclusively plays turf war because of the aforementioned). also you're really funny. gg
You show me what my main weapon can do. You're just a gigachad. Thank man, that was juste insane and just I have no word... You have done a things that is incredible, gg !
unfortunately i dont have too much longer form content planned, as its really hard to have non-gameplay content that is long, but ill try to think of some ideas. glad you like it :)
This was the worst rank that I was stuck at, considering I am a casual player I wasn't ready for the initial jump but after 4 rank up battles I was able to be s+
After watching the final match in the rank up set, the channel host is playing too offensive with a supportive weapon. The under cover brellia is not a shooter / aggressor weapon. The channel host would recklessly jump and mostly get taken out for poor jump ins. When the channel host would see an enemy he would try to chance and challenge / splat that enemy and fail, especially when that e-liter is heavily watching the channel host. Honestly speaking if the channel host preform his role better with his weapon the match would had been much smoother for him and his team. Especially with the results medals which indicates he was heavily carried by his teammates. Congratulations on completing this series as I will have to watch the previous episode to see how it all starts. Base on many competitive players tier list the under cover brellia is the worst weapon in the whole title. Reaching top 500 with the worst roller in the whole title the big swing roller? Base on the video I saw I do believe the channel host has the skills / fundamentals to reach such feat. I am not trying to be rude as I am only pointing out from what I had saw in this video along, however if the channel host can / will do such a series I will check on the progress. If such a feat is achieved I will be heavily shocked, I will give my best wishes to the channel host if that series ever comes to fruition.
I actually really like the Undercover, but who in the hell at Nintendo thought giving it Reefslider was a good idea? It’s called undercover for a reason. Hell give the weapon Triple Inkstrike and that would’ve been a much better kit.
Even the worst weapon is playable in Splatoon. I think a lot of people see it in the bottom of competitive player’s tier lists and don’t understand that you have to be pretty skilled before the weapon starts to be the limiting factor. Anyone, even very new players, can notice it’s a weak weapon quickly. But it also won’t kill you more than your own mistakes for a long time.
This is interesting, that the channel host can reach S+ from the lowest rank in under a week. That is not the weapon fault but the skills of the holder / the channel host. Once I complete my own challenge I will watch the complete series in full. I do not understand why many say their stuck in said rank as it is just that said player is just terrible at the title and does not understand the fundamentals of the title. Most individuals are lock on tunnel vision and just heavily focus on the objective or not at all. Lower rank individuals does not focus on the paint control how many enemies are down and their own team placements, etc etc.
4:11 After further review, your toes peeked over the ledge and the bomb was directly under you… so your hit box barely made contact with lethal range :((((
I noticed many times where u were carrying rainmaker and didnt squid roll forward lowering the amount of points u got i think thats Something that could really help u
did you notice if newer players struggled with a certain mode the most? i would think clam blitz, since the game doesnt explain the mode that well, but maybe my guess is wrong
I noticed that you weren't using any mines, and rarely closed the brella which is important for recovering shield damage, that definitely would've helped on that last match. Also saw some wave aiming, though that's fixable with time.
Just barely started and I gotta say... HARD AGREE! The springs stage sucks for all modes I don't even like it for clams ngl it's the worst map for every mode impo
i mean i do play x on my main acc, im a ~2200xp player, but if i were to use undercover on my main i have no idea how well i would do. nah it deffo would be more difficult than s rank. the skill jump is quite significant, as most people have begun do develop advanced mechanics.
I think it would of helped to play more of a support role instead of an aggressive one. Like not stay behind completely but help your team win fights (making it a 2v1). UC is a pretty weak weapon and I think doing it the way I’m suggesting would of helped you- (not like your about to play this weapon again lol) I hope this helped some other players with finding their role-
After watching an entire series with this weapon, my opinion of it has changed a little bit. While the weapon is still not great, it looks like it's good at taking out weak opponents and being a distraction for the enemy team. I cannot wait until this weapon gets a second kit though
And a buff. Buff’s arguably more important.
Honestly I think torpedo wave breaker would be the best kit for this weapon, focusing on how it can kill weak opponents and distract, and wave breaker giving info to your team and being a nuisance for the other team.

Top 500 big swig should be doable in zones
Next, you should get goo tuber to s+
hmmmm....
no
Big swig's actually good now because it two-shots crab and booyah, soooooooooooooooooooooooooo
did you notice if newer players struggled with a certain mode the most? i would think clam blitz, since the game doesnt explain the mode that well, but maybe my guess is wrong
its 100% clams. the amount of missed power clams, complete lack of awareness and coordination gives it the worst experience in low ranks.
