I was in a Arena and there was this Young Link kicking everyone's ass including mines so I decided to pick a random character for fun so I went with Inkling. I almost 3-0'd him. And I never played inkling before. So now I'm here lol
Inkling was planned to be a pocket character of mine. But I never really got into that character. But thanks for this video and the guide - now I'm thinking about trying him/her out again. Great work, Dan - as always 👍
A good one i tend to find is after a full jab, if your opponent has a tendency to roll in right away if they dont tech, a fully charged splat bomb catches them right away. Which can then lead a tech chase roller, followed by a smash. I've had multiple, down throw -> jab -> unteched roll in -> splat bomb -> roller -> forward/upsmash for a good 80-90% in all of 15 seconds.
A cool thing I do is that if the bomb explodes I will dash into the center of it mid explosion and hit them with any attack mainly dash this is awesome when u get the chance to do it coz the ink covers the screen a bit covering Ur character so yeh If u get what I mean
Nice video, as an inkling main I'm always looking for more insight and as you say, most videos are over a year old and don't account for all the nerfs the character has had. Here's a quick combo I came up with (not true and only works against taller characters, but a good mixup anyway): Dash -> nair -> cross-up -> nair -> back tilt (should lead to a tech chase if landed) -> dash -> down tilt/dash attack -> fair / uair. After the second dash you can mix it up with a quick back dash to bait their recovery / roll and punish with roller, or you can read and punish with a grab that leads to booyah.
lilDan596 i would but now after 2 months i’ve got used to it so i’m gonna keep the controls how they are. in fact, sometimes when i play splatoon i press a by accident haha
A good way to land a roller is when you hit someone who ends up lying on the ground, Immediately follow up with a roll. 5 times out of 10, they’ll end up rolling backwards and the second they stand their in the ground.
There are a not a lot of good inkling guide on you tube, thank you a lot for this video there's almost zero good video of combos and tech chases and on how to get opponent with roller just thank you for a amazing video :)
I really wish I could main Isabelle but I played inkling and something just clicked for me. Thanks for making this to improve my skill even more with this character
Inkling needs to run some extra ink saver main, stacking 69 pures of sub saver wasn't the best use of gear because of diminishing returns on all gear abilities
I started getting into diddy Kong but then I heard that inkling is basically smash 4 diddy so I tried him and am rlly surprised on how much I like him. I like learning combos myself but I rlly needed those tips on how to cancel roller and stuff like that lol, ty
I was just playing around in adventure mode trying new characters and I kinda groaned when I got to inkling because I thought she sucked. Turns out, she's a ton of fun
I'm not super good at inkling, but down throw into back air is also true at about 15% percent and can lead to a kill off stage if you back air again, catching opponent's jump. I use this a lot
Here is a good method, (Note: Don't abuse the roller lol) Try to roller somone around 50%, jump cancel out of side b, then do quick bair, covert on your opponent and use rapid jab. Try to dash dance and sneak a grab when shield, up throw, jump on a plaform and use up air to finish him/her off. Method simplified: Side B (Roller around 50%) ---> Jump Cancel then Bair ---> Rapid Jab ---> Sneak a Grab (Hit 3 times) ---> Up-Throw ---> (Using a platform extension) Uair ---> Success!
you can drop jump splattershot from the ledge and drift in. let go and get either u-smash or jab (they can air dodge bur jab will cover it unless the air dodge away
The roller is one of the main reasons I use the inklings it is decently overpowered and it triggers a pitfall if you Hit someone leaving them vulnerable
Hey quick question because I don't seem to get it right: at 12:53 you explain some crazy air moves to move underneath the stage, what exactly are you doing there? you say "roller" do you mean side+b in mid air -> double jump -> up+b?
Wait can you gather ink without a full tank like pretend I kill somebody and my ink tank is at 50 percent can I refill it without wasting my ink if so how?
I’m having a lot of trouble with that combo at 5:18 every time I press the right stick down after doing the two jabs, it just does the splattershot third jab, is a GameCube controller needed to pull off this combo, or will joycons or a pro controller work?
Hey everyone! Thanks for watching! I made another follow up video on inklings combos, you can watch it here: ruclips.net/video/sK4qg_nffx4/видео.html
Thanks ;____;
Instablaster.
@Areo07 it's skin number 8
FUN FACT: once you start inkling's side B there is no escape
like 400 hours of inkling i still cant consistently cancel roller when I want. idk it still feels janky to use, mb just bad.
yea you can just double tap b after u use it
Just hit down and b and you instantly cancel it
@@santanashewrote Can I kiss you sir?
dash dancing is the squidbagging of smash
What is squidbagging
@@linkonedgell894 in splatoon I think it’s where you become a kid and then a squid quick multiple times to be toxic
@@Miko.Splash Sometimes it’s done to squid party
@@user-usiwisoxmshksl true, this was a month ago, I’m still new to splatoon but a month ago I didn’t know what motion controls were.
@@Miko.Splash imma squidbag ya you better watch out for my e liter 4k scope from the back if the map
As good as this video is, you forgot to mention the most important aspect about inkling.

i didn't think about this but this is so true
Alt 7 for the win!!
A thing I like to do as inking is I will wall jump at the ledge and back air.
That's pretty cool

With like 3 teabags, inkling is easily the best character in the game
May be worth mentioning in disadvantage you can roller under stage and make a recovery on most legal stages

I was looking for an updated video! What a timing.
Glad to help!
Inkling was planned to be a pocket character of mine. But I never really got into that character.
But thanks for this video and the guide - now I'm thinking about trying him/her out again.
Great work, Dan - as always 👍
This is perfect! Now I can become even better! Thanks!
You are welcome!
I just joined my school's gaming clup, and the inklings are the only thing I'm familiar with. Thank you for making this!
You got it! Good luck in your club. I also have an inkling combo video that might help out too so give that a look too

Ima have to try this out!!!
I do this combo all the time and it’s so satisfying.
Now that’s a lot of damage!

If u get what I mean
yo thanks for this vid. i just recently started playing inkling, and after the 2 years of playing this game, i think she's gonna be my new main.

This is the godsend I’ve been looking for! Phenomenal video!
This is an awesome comment!
i can’t be the only one who kept pressing zr and zl thinking it would ink or something
i wish that zl would fill up your ink just like it does in splatoon 2
You can change special to that button
lilDan596 i would but now after 2 months i’ve got used to it so i’m gonna keep the controls how they are. in fact, sometimes when i play splatoon i press a by accident haha
Dude thanks for uploading this my inkling has dipped in quality lately and I needed something like this
Yourw welcome 😊 stay subbed cause i got more coming!
I just fought an inkling as ganondorf and all they kept doing was side b and up smash.I feel violated

something about inkling movement makes her so addicting and fun to play. once i tried her, I couldn't play any other hero idk why
What a video man thank you. Iv mained inkling since day 1 and i wanted to be better. Thank you
Same
Can’t wait for the boo yah video
There are a not a lot of good inkling guide on you tube, thank you a lot for this video there's almost zero good video of combos and tech chases and on how to get opponent with roller just thank you for a amazing video :)

Thanks m8!

Hey man, thanks for making this been looking for a new inkling guide! You got a new subscriber outta me.
Tysm!
2000 views!?!? No way you deserve more.
tysmmm!!!
Nice work man, really solid points

Awesome video! I just picked up Inkling and was having trouble finding REAL resources. Now I finally have. Thank you.
I started getting into diddy Kong but then I heard that inkling is basically smash 4 diddy so I tried him and am rlly surprised on how much I like him. I like learning combos myself but I rlly needed those tips on how to cancel roller and stuff like that lol, ty
Stay subbed cause i got a video on that soon
@@lildan596 for sure!
Bro, thanks so much. I really needed a tutorial on the squidkid.
The info on weight affecting up smash out of roller bury was super helpful. That had happened to me before but I never thought about why
Thanks. I just got back to inking after I dropped the character months ago and I already have a combo list
Thank u for putting me in the thumbnail 👍

Im buying smash bros for christmas and I plan to make the inkling as my main character thanks!
thanks so much! trying to learn the squid kid. legit teaching better than my teachers
Thanks I use these guides for counter play

2:15 actually if you press down special, she will do a pose looking at her/his empty tank.
If it’s completely empty the inkling will refill his ink
Thanks for the guide, it's really helpful!
you can drop jump splattershot from the ledge and drift in. let go and get either u-smash or jab (they can air dodge bur jab will cover it unless the air dodge away
I didn't even know that sans was actually added to smash
Really wish we could have some of these moves on Splatoon.
I just cover my opponent in ink then bam up-smash
Do people use Inkling any more since the nerfs? I’ve wanted to pick him up but have heard he lacks kill power.
Thank you.
Thanks for using the best inkling skin
FACTS
Good guide

at 12:53 you explain some crazy air moves to move underneath the stage, what exactly are you doing there? you say "roller" do you mean side+b in mid air -> double jump -> up+b?
Yes!
as I play brawlhalla learning to play this game becomes progressively harder TwT
you can f-throw to bair at low percents asd it does more damage then up throw to up air
me who just started carring about the smash competetive scene yesterday trying to understand anything : .-.
he was number 1
How good is inkling’s nair actually? I don’t like that is so short range
I was trying to figure out how to charge ink. It was shield special at any range of meter.
I dont even Main Inkling and thought this was useful
I hate when videos like this say "special" or "neutral" instead of just telling you the button.
Wait can you gather ink without a full tank like pretend I kill somebody and my ink tank is at 50 percent can I refill it without wasting my ink if so how?
Sheild+B
I only use Inkling to hear woomy
What do all these things mean?? I’ve played smash bros ultimate for a while and I have no idea what any of this means
I should be the guy who does this for 2021
Me watching this just to train a few amiibo
I’m having a lot of trouble with that combo at 5:18 every time I press the right stick down after doing the two jabs, it just does the splattershot third jab, is a GameCube controller needed to pull off this combo, or will joycons or a pro controller work?
Gotta mash A more happens to me a lot too
Side b
I don’t know the names moves of the attacks, how can you tell the name of the neutral attacks?
Jeez I need to give more time to my actual main compared to steve 😅
why does no one like
*W A L U I G I*
wait how do you up air, it triggers very late for me
Now this video is a year old xd
It's almost 2 months now
Fun Fact: if you try to rapid jab bowser your dead
Wommy! 10:30
Me who is watching this video a year ago 😂 0:23
What is a tech
how do u grab in super smash
With L/R
I dont know why im watching this, i dont have smash
blaster is better in smash than in splatoon

No entiendo nada pero bueno
I'm a joker main since I played with him for 8k battles i think I got bored so I just came here.
