10:33 small note on this, if you’re on a team that’s running tacticooler, the tacticooler buff actually makes squid surges worth it! just holding down the button for a fraction of a second instantly fully charges a surge, letting you climb super fast and take more aggressive plays with it because of the armor! this is the only time squid surge will ever be worth it probably anyways merry squidmas!!
it’s interesting how a technique as simple as swimming up a wall can have so many little sub-techniques within. perfect example of how in-depth splatoon’s gameplay sandbox is
Rejoice! Gem remembered to talk about other weapon types this time! Oh, but for Blasters: they paint less if you "spark" that is, hit a solid surface instead of having the shot explode in the air.
I've been watching your content for a month now, and I just got the game for Christmas! Super excited to hop in and play. Love your videos, stay awesome!
A buff I think Splat Brella desperately needs but nobody mentions is its wall paint. From far away it is fine, but if you are right next to the wall your shots paint practically NOTHING which makes escaping a NIGHTMARE
Can't you get a decent horizontal spread by standing close to the wall and firing at an angle into it? Very useful especially on hydroplant when you get a brella
If you think about it, the ink is a type of acid because it burns itself into anything so your squid form will fit inside completely. Your squid form isn't flat normally, plus the ink burns through other inklings. There you go, a random theory
I'm pretty sure inklings are actually MADE OF INK. Some bendy shit. You can merge into your own ink, but not enemy ink so if you get covered in too much you just kinda. Separate like a failed icing as it gets into your pores and destabilizes your form.
Merry Christmas Gem! Thanks for being such a positive and educational teacher. It’s clear that you are amazing at what you do, and I’m so glad the younger generation of players has someone like you to look up too!
Great video, Gem! I always wondered how people seemed to climb up walls so quickly and now I know that they just mash B. I'm a little surprised you didn't mention that burst bombs are really good wall painters. I feel like it's the main way carbon deco rollers and splatana stampers (and to a lesser extent splash o matics) climb walls
whenever i play carbon deco on flounder heights i spend any downtime burst bombing the walls around mid, it not only gives me more movement options but it also paints over enemy ink very thoroughly
I believe I tested with 2 mains and it didn't but even if that's wrong, there are much better things to use gear for than just getting Squid Surge up to the same level of capability as something you can have for free.
Question, what would you do as a decently good player, do to help the influx of newbies have a good time? I’m on a “don’t splat newbies” policy for today but maybe there are other things we can do?
The song is All I Want For Chipmas is You. It's a remix of the original All I Want For Christmas song made to sound like it was made by the band, Chirpy Chips
Not everyone knows these things. If you do good for you just don't hate on others who are just now learning this. It's not like he's teaching us that you can climb up walls, he's teaching us techniques that the game doesn't tell you.
it blows my mind that someone who is not the target audience for a video gets so angry about a generally helpful video for beginners and feels the need to leave a completely unnecessary and rude comment with no constructive criticism or additional advice. You really are just terrible
It is literally Xmas today. So many people will get splatoon for the first time. Just because you’re a S+50 sweat and you know this doesn’t mean others are the same. I don’t need it but many new people will
A lot of this isn't obvious. Mashing being faster than surge is super unintuitive, and right side peek advantage is only well known to other shooter players. He's constantly saying things I've never heard before, or explaining things in a way I'd never thought about before. But honestly, I just watch cause I'm bored and want to watch his content, he seems nice and knows what he's talking about, even if a lot of the info is redundant to returning players or people coming from other games.
I’m so happy moola’s remix is everywhere on the internet!
We need more Chirpy Chips in the world and Moola is able to make it for us.
I had been listening to it nonstop and now I'm seeing youtubers everywhere use it and that makes me happy
same
I love how you can hear the enthusiasm draining from his voice when he says “today we are talking about walls”
A merry Christmas indeed.
0:47 "This is a wall. Hi, wall."
This makes me smile for some reason. I love how Gem just said it in a wholesome matter.
My wholesome energy is satisfied for the day
This and the snipewriter when he was walking around are so funny and wholesome.
That made me giggle.

anyways merry squidmas!!
as a blaster main who uses a loooot of intensify this also goes for intensify action
@@Pearl7sp thxi was wondering which ability the buff is associated with
Me: peacefully playing the game
Carbon: I'm in your Walls
Pffff hahahahahahaha
As a Brush main I second this
Merry Squidmas!
Merry squidmas to all!

adding the squid roll and squid surge was honestly a genius way of elevating the skill ceiling of the game without changing existing tech
idk how useful this is but when squid rolling off a wall, if you press Y and B both at the same time you can do an instant 180 off the wall
Talking about painting walls so much is bringing me back to when Splatoon 1 just came out, ah memories
Rejoice! Gem remembered to talk about other weapon types this time!

Merry squidmas to you all! I love walls.

Congrats! Hope you have fun with it!
Just like me fr fr (I also obsess over games for months without even playing them (literally went 2 years doing that one time))
Welcome to Splat 3!
whoooo!! so excited for the christmas gang to join in on the fun
I'm soooo happy to hear the intro music! I've been listening to that cover on repeat for days now
Do ceilings next!!! plsss
**looks up and sees the sky**
SO HAPPY MOOLA IS GETTING LOVE. HE NEEDS IT SO BADLY, He’s also severely underrated, check out his music covers.

@@Nachiebree Horizontally, but not really vertically.
For stringers after the 2.0 buff, I recommend using partial charge jump shots, the new radius paints so much
Yes I love the Chirpy Chips All I Want For Chipmas Is You remix!!
hey, gem? thank you. for taking care of us and being not only a good teacher, but a fun guy. you're good, and that's undeniable
Huge shoutout for crediting the music fr! I was worried when i recognized it at first but idk why i would need to be of course you would credit ppl
PSA: The chips cover of all I want for Christmas id you absolutely slaps and you MUST listen to it

You can’t escape from Mariah carey, not even in splatoon
its a shame how hard squid surge is to make use of, i was hoping it would shake things up a lot more
Merry Christmas Gem! Thanks for being such a positive and educational teacher. It’s clear that you are amazing at what you do, and I’m so glad the younger generation of players has someone like you to look up too!
A lot of this is very map dependant because some maps are very flat and have few walls but some have a ton of them.
Gem just made a 20 minute video about walls
Great video, Gem! I always wondered how people seemed to climb up walls so quickly and now I know that they just mash B.
I'm a little surprised you didn't mention that burst bombs are really good wall painters. I feel like it's the main way carbon deco rollers and splatana stampers (and to a lesser extent splash o matics) climb walls
Welcome, newbies! Hope you assimilate well and have a lot of fun!
One thing to add: Busrt Bombs! Need a wall painted immediately? A burst bomb should do the trick!
whenever i play carbon deco on flounder heights i spend any downtime burst bombing the walls around mid, it not only gives me more movement options but it also paints over enemy ink very thoroughly
14:27 "The drip is able to fill the gap"
out of context
Merry Christmas Gem 🎄 and thank you for all the amazing tutorials!
Merry Squidmas everybody!!! Today we are going to talk about walls. Better to get to the chimney before Kraken Claus! ❤
Lefty mode for splatoon 3 when?
Merry Christmas. I learned so much. (Mashing b?! Never thought of it.)
A very merry woomy booyah woomgers to you Gem
With intensify action I think squid surging gets up walls slightly faster than mashing, could be wrong though
I believe I tested with 2 mains and it didn't but even if that's wrong, there are much better things to use gear for than just getting Squid Surge up to the same level of capability as something you can have for free.
@@SquidSchool Squid Surge is useful, just not for faster movement for a fully inked wall.
Merry squidmas🌨
rly helpful video thanks!
Hi wall
Never knw about the mashing to get up the wall faster, I feel dumb now >_

Also why did you play all I want for Christmas.

@@Magic_Mango I know
@@AnekinRed then why tf did u ask???
@@G00dTaste irony
@@G00dTaste they meant it in like a “why did you cause me this pain” kind of question
Does squid surge go through enemy ink at all?
jokes on you!!! it's boxing day here in australia
merry squidmas to the american people
Apologies for our time zone not keeping up ;)
Merry squidmas🎉
merry squidmas
merry squidmas!
Merry squibby
Is rickrolling viable to get to top 500? Or is this amazing technique not so great?
Rick rolling depends on the situation
First! And merry octomas!
Anyone able to fill me in on Gem's pronouns? (Preferably Gem) I havent heard them mention it atp but i been watching for a while
he/him!
It blows my mind that someone who makes videos about completly obvious things gets so much attention. Splatoon community really has gotten terrible.
