Something I realized a bit later than I should have, it's only called "Swim Form" because you can play as either a Squid or an Octopus in Splatoon 3, and saying "Squid (or Octopus) Form" isn't as neatly condensed as "Swim Form"
@@Ansel_GYeah. However, it's easier to say than listing BOTH Squid and Octopus Forms just to mention swimming in ink. Hence "Swim Form" being a lot smarter of a move in hindsight.
something I always did in levels (especially boss levels) is I'd ink the entire starting room to get my special gauge up, and depending on your upgrades it can get you about halfway full. inking the second platform almost always netted me a full charge, no funky respawn tricks required, lol
I just finished watching the Splatoon 2 video and I refreshed my feed to see you just made the Splatoon 3 challenge. What are the chances? I'm going to enjoy watching this, thanks for making these challenge runs, I'm always so shocked by how much you can do without swimming.
ive binged all the splatoon videos at this point, and they are awesome! I can't imagine how much effort these videos take😅 but they definitely deserve all the views!
You don't need to use ANY squid forms on the first level shown here. you showed that using the geyser trick you were able to get on top of one of the vaults, meaning that you only need two keys to complete the level and don't have to get the 3rd squid form required key.
He still needs to bring a key to the third vault to unlock it, though, and since that means he has to get past the second vault with a key intact, he still has to unlock the second vault as vaults open automatically.
I’m well aware this video is old, but it should actually be possible to beat “Get to Know Alterna, Your Only Choice” in 0 squid transformations by skipping the inkrail key entirely and instead duplicating the third key. I’m not sure exactly how this works but it’s shown in this video: ruclips.net/video/VoAuBYmC2Eg/видео.htmlsi=zc0enSv379Eh6v0H
that is pretty interesting, i'll see what I can do at some point, but I still don't think it's possible. I think they duplicated the key my grabbing it BEFORE the checkpoint was marked (they used the squid roll) I don't think this would be possible without using the roll.
Your techniques are so creative! I was constantly surprised with how many cool strategies you had. You put so much effort into your videos so thank you!
These remind me of a mario odyssey speedrun category which is played by using the hat the least amount of times. Ive always loved seeing how players always find a way to reduce the number more and more throughout the years. Squidless should totally be a speedrun category!! Id love to see people find ways to skip some squids and see the final number
Just so you know (even though you've probably been told plenty of times by now) there is a trick to skip Mr. Grizz's first phase called menu storage which if you watch splatoon 3 speedruns by LonTr0 (just watch the newest wr) to find out more about it Edit: my bad I just finished the video lol
7:56 You should be able to do this, stand on the middle roller jump off shoot it then land on it again while it’s moving. Hope this helps cut off a squid (wait that sounded really weird😂) im gonna try this challenge soon i will confirm if it worked or not
For "Switching Things Up", would it be possible to catch a ride on the top block as you activate its switch to skip swimming up the walls? Or alternately, to ride on one of the other blocks in some way that would save at least one of the swim forms? edit: ok i tried it myself, 0's almost definitely impossible (the top block is the very first one which seems impossible to reach) but i still feel like there might be some clever workaround to do it in 1 edit 2: i'm leaning toward it not being possible now since there seems to be no way to ink switches without leaving swim form, even if you have the wall around them inked, and i'm pretty sure you can't partially ink these ones either. all of my ideas fall short, i'll stop trying now for my sanity's sake
I am probably just sticking to minimum squids for the splatoon games since other people are doing the nuzlockes, and minimum jumps. Good suggestion though!
I wrote this in a reply already, but decided a comment would be easier to see, first of all i am ENDER ELF, just a account i only use on laptop. Maybe mod your game to add all weapons and their kits to story mode. and see which weapon is MVP of min squids (zipcaster banned in non zipcaster levels). and also maybe minimum upgrade points, the thing other than sardinum for upgrades for hero gear. it would be a challenge but fun to watch! and maybe also do lol.
I had the idea of doing this (the salmon run one) before splatoon 3 came out, but I don't know if anyone else would want to help me since it's such an insane task
U should have 50k at least by now! Also maybe try a version with each weapon from regular multiplayer, and its kits coz i think u could maybe do something to skip some jumps like that. Edit i meant squids not jumps lol
@@Ansel_G i have another account, for computer, but anyways i meant maybe modding the game to get all weapons from multiplayer and their kits (obviously not allowing zipcaster, as it would skip entire levels)
I actually have wanted to make a celeste challenge for quite a while, but I haven't really gotten any good ideas for it. feel free to comment if you have a good idea!
@@Ansel_G Ive got nothing in particular in mind.. off the top of my head i guess it could be good fun to stick with the theme of least buttons/jumps/dashes/grabs for completion
Hey this ain't 100% this is just every level u lier jk it doesn't matter but it is technically not 100% because you didn't beat them with every weapon and you didn't collect all the collectables

Missed opportunity to say squid form in the title and just play as an octo
TRUE

Thanks for watching! These all took forever to make, but I’m glad everyone seems to like them

don't the vaults take the key while you're on top?

just did a short bit of research. You can delay the time the checkpoint activates by collecting power eggs
Once again, this was a fantastic challenge. Keep up the good work
What an absolute chad, playing the game about squids without being squids
Your techniques are so creative! I was constantly surprised with how many cool strategies you had. You put so much effort into your videos so thank you!
Thank YOU for enjoying :)
Bro ansel You Could of stood on the gusher then stood on it and waited for the ink wheel
Until it reached it

8:10 I remember seeing some cheese where a guy jumped onto a moving block so I'm pretty sure this can be done with one squid but I'm not sure
You need 3 squids in total for that, so it wouldn’t be very helpful
was excited to see this in my notifications! keep up to good work, your channel is criminally underrated
It's really awesome ! You're are seriously determined for finish this game with this challenge 😄
oh, another squid video? Time to get some calamari-
something that squids are useful for
7:21 best part
I have to say this is definitely your best video insanely cool tricks, keep up the good work man
Glad you like it, I have other splatoon videos too. I recently recreated the first game’s challenge video.

I'm pretty sure you can actually. Haven't tested it myself but I think I saw someone do it in another video.
Yeah, I spent about an hour on this stage trying to do strats that were worse than just playing normally
Bro can you watch my video no one's been watching my videos:(
Love your videos never give up
i wont!
Bruh i thought u was watching a channel with at least like 300k subs .. ur so underrated. GL
Let’s go part two
the real first
Oh my I didn't know that about the first level
ah yes, I have been waiting for this epic video. You deffently deserve move subs!
GREAT VID :D please do min jumps, or a nuzlocke for the next challenge! (Either splat 3 or its future DLC)
OMG THIS IS MY FIRST TIME GETTING LIKED BY A YT THANKS SO MUCH (i love ur vids btw! U should have at least 25k by now. If not 100k or 1m)
I am probably just sticking to minimum squids for the splatoon games since other people are doing the nuzlockes, and minimum jumps.
Good suggestion though!
K
How are we gonna tell him you just take an elevator to the platforms in Relic Restoration?
You have to climb the wall to use it
Oh. I forgor.
you forgor
Yes.
Bro Ansel I Have seen this like so many times
How this guy doesn’t have 100K is beyond me. *and I still don’t have over 100 subscribers*
This is Amazing! An idea for while you wait for the next Splatoon game or an expansion is "How Many Times Is Kid Form Needed?" in the Splatoon games.
that might actually be too difficult for me haha
and plus if it goes by the same rules I have for this challenge, I could just stay in kid form for a long time and just not be in squid form.
Go check out Cemeecrafts challenge on Splatoon 3. Not exactly the same thing but it's kinda what you want
@@nintendoboy3605 yeah it's pretty much the same thing
Bruh Is it?
Awsome job man 👏
Although splatoon2 had a more catchy name, splatoon3 was an amazing game, so it’s a tie

Ya splatoon 3. Hope seeing doing dlc story mode when it comes. Otherwise neat
I'll definitely be doing the dlc
Here’s a challenge: with a team of you and 3 friends, how far can you climb in ranked or salmon run without swimming?
To be clear, that’s with the entire team not swimming lol, better pack on the run speed
I had the idea of doing this (the salmon run one) before splatoon 3 came out, but I don't know if anyone else would want to help me since it's such an insane task
I absolutely love these videos
It's at least more than 3 🗿
Yess it’s here!
the amount of time this musg have taken is insane good job
Thanks, it took a lot of time figuring out these tricks..
Congratulations
U should have 50k at least by now! Also maybe try a version with each weapon from regular multiplayer, and its kits coz i think u could maybe do something to skip some jumps like that. Edit i meant squids not jumps lol
you only get a select option for weapons to use, so I don't think anything would really help weapon-wise.
@@Ansel_G i have another account, for computer, but anyways i meant maybe modding the game to get all weapons from multiplayer and their kits (obviously not allowing zipcaster, as it would skip entire levels)
@@Ansel_G also, maybe do a challenge, where you get the least upgrade points(the 2nd part of upgrading hero gear)

i don't know how to mod lol
@@Ansel_G Maybe get a person from the community, or try to get in contact with the person who made octo expansion rainbow mod or whatever its called
Lol, just play as an octoling
TRUEEE
He is a smart guy making a small video with the least content possible and doing the rest of the levels on another video for bigger stonks
Any% and 100% are different things, so that’s why I do it lol
ayo part two
For the level switching things up can't you go on the platforms as they fly to the end of the level?
that would use one extra squid.
Question, did you never notice the propeller platform in the maoi painting level? Or would it cause you to have to use another squid?
I’m pretty sure I answered this in the video
@@Ansel_G ah then I probably missed the explanation, thanks for answering anyway though!
I just now unlocked after alterna
YEAHHH PART 2
That’s a weird bug
Yayy Part Two!!
Can you beat smash bros story mode without dieing
Super sick
i hate those aren’t birds
so awesome!
Does it count as 100% if you don’t beat every level with every weapon?
thats like 1000% or something
why didnt my secret level unlock even tho i completed every level with every single weapon ??
you might be missing a level.
