"Would it be cool if you could swim and use your main and sub weapon during the special-" NO. GOD NO. You can make a case for swimming but the other stuff is a hard no, that would be broken. Other than that, great vid! Really informative and useful for newer players trying to get into v slosher.
LMAO, okay, you’re probably right. How about a compromise, I only get the ability to use the main weapon? lol But thank you Sleepy! I agree! Hopefully whoever wants to learn this, finds this helpful.
@@GUSplatoon balance wise, that would absolutely destroy tri-strike. Tri-strike is currently the second most powerful special in the game, and if anything, it needs a nerf.
Awesome video Gus!! I’m a huge competitive Slosher enthusiast myself and this is the best video I’ve seen for newcomers without a doubt! I have a few other tips I think could be good for newcomers as well? 1. The 70 DMG Slosher direct + 30 DMG Splat Bomb indirect can be a really threatening combo, no doubt! However, keep in mind that another player running a single sub of Sub Resistance Up on their gear build will negate this combo, since it deals exactly 100 DMG. This may not be something too important right now, since the current game state lacks ≈100 DMG combos that encourage players to run Sub Resistance Up, but it should still be considered. 2. Splat Bomb rolling is a super important technique for this weapon’s ability to move and trap players, since it explodes the bomb faster. There are plenty of guides on RUclips for this and I recommend it to anyone who is more inexperienced with the Splat Bomb! 3. vSlosher is a master at super jump camping in applicable situations! A technique I don’t see mentioned in this video is that right before someone lands from a super jump, you can flick a shot right above that jump marker, then Slosh forward immediately after which combos both the shots into each other! This will kill the player before they even have time to react. I recommend practicing it in the training room! Another way to camp a jump is timing a Splat Bomb at the marker so it instantly kills the player the moment that they land. That being said, good luck to anyone trying to pick up this weapon! I’m super excited for the other guides you decide to make as well, Gus! We appreciate you and the work you put into these videos :)
One of things that I love the most about y’all is that, if I forget something in the video, y’all got me covered 🫡 Thank you for the additional tip! & you’re so right on the super jump camping tech! It’s good to know which weapon is jumping too. I have a clip doing it with deco, so I’ll include this in the next video, and mention things I forgot to include in part 1.
A little tip I've learned for triple ink strike : You can REALLY displace backliners on grates/glass. For ex, on undertow spillway, you know that one place where a lot of chargers hang out, right in the center of the map? If you are on the complete opposite side, and the wall is blocking you view, you can line it on the ceiling to help better your shot! I usually only use this when I can't access the ground, but it can really throw some players off! Great video on slashers, I've been wanting to ramp up my game :D
They also love to hang out at top right (from your view on the opposing team) where that glass is on Undertow... and you can approach there from far right where they can't see you to throw your tri strike
Hey Gus, as a player who also specializes in the slosher class and picked up the vSlosher a couple of weeks ago. I think this was an EXELENTS video for both casual and high level comp players. (Very good and deep descring, this was very helpfull and I really enjoyed and felt like I learned a good bit from this video).
Can't wait for the slosher deco guide since It's like the most fun zipcaster weapon for me and getting skilled with hitting the line marker combo is so satisfying 👍
Soul silver is one of my favorite games, and one of my favorite things about making videos is picking the music. I usually try to match a theme. Since Slosher requires you to train & train & train, I decided to put music that exemplified that mentality.
This was great! So happy to see V Slosher talked about. I’ve been a slosher main since Splatoon 2, but I still learned some new and interesting stuff. Nice work!
Slosher is such a cool weapon! I've been discouraged from using it because of skill and ttek, but I've been using deco instead. I didn't understand when you said Slosher has an ink problem, but from playing deco and not being reliant on sub usage, I found I had more than enough sloshes to fight. Not as bad as Machine though.
I used to play Slosher in splatoon 2 and dropped it for other weapons in splatoon 3 But I have been missing playing the slosher so I started picking it up again thanks for a guide!
Thank you for a such a wonderful guide! I love my bucket but I felt like I'm not making the most of its full potential, this video was something what I needed. Looking forward for the future contents :)
Honestly that bit about not using the slosher like a shooter was really helpful for me. Although I'm a casual turf player, I noticed a losing streak and I'm watching guides like this to better understand my weapons.
I've gotten really rusty in the game due to not being able to pay for online since the first splatfest. Still very pissed off about the fact we gotta pay for it.
I just picked up slosher in the past couple months and I'm seeing thia vid for the first time today! Flicking isnt something I'd noticed before today so this will be useful :)
It’ll come soon! It’ll be a shorter video since I’ll mainly recap a bunch of the stuff I said here for the main weapon but, I will ensure the quality stays the same!!
@@Xneocake good question, so the way it’s looking rn, Slosher is first then Tri. Depending on which next bucket gets a next kit which I think will be machine, that’ll be the third one. I would be open to reviewing all the weapons after updates stop happening. I am also planning on doing gameplay with commentary so I can walk you all through my thought process during a match.
Really really helpful and awesome to see your growth, keep up the good work One thing thats always confused me is why is burst bomb so hated on slosher specifically? Slosher burst 70 combo: Talentless Stamper burst 70 combo: Enpowering lmao great video and will be looking forward to more in the future
It’s likely because of Splatoon 1 when it actually had burst bomb lol It was not top tier at the time, but the combo was insane. Most recently Tri had it in S2, and some hated it. I think people are ok with stamper since it’s a new weapon.
@@GUSplatoon i see that makes sense, i think it was a top tier in that game too? so that would make more sense then. tri was also very good so that could be why its so hated
Nice video, looking forward to future parts. The music made it hard to listen to though, maybe something a little easier on the ears, or even splatoon music would be nicer.
@@GUSplatoon oh interesting! Volume could help, maybe something less high pitched? I can't put my finger on exactly what quality of the music was making me feel that way.
This thing is so uncomfortable to me because it feels like its shots have 0.1 mm width and you need absolute pinpoint aim on every attack or its a waste of ink. Once in a while I try it and just flee back to Tri.
Definitely. This weapon requires more spacing & if you miss, you put yourself in a bad spot. But I do have some gameplay showing how I play it so check it out!
I know run speed wasn't listed as being a viable ability for slosher. However I've tried to stack at around 3 mains just to test and it seems like it actually really really help with mobility, I think maybe more than with swim speed, even tho I know I wasn't a fan of this ability for v-slosher. I'm curious to know what you think, and if you try it, if you can see a major difference or if it is just me
I don’t think run speed on Slosher is helpful. Definitely on sloshing machine, but not Slosher. Remember, since you could cancel poor strafe speed with strafe jumping, you could invest in other abilities that give you more benefit. Swim speed is the better choice imo.

WOOOOOOO YEAH BABY THATS WHATS WE’VE BEEN WAITING FOR THATS WHAT ITS ALL ABOUT WOOOO-
LETS GOO!!!!
YESSSS
Can't wait for the other guides, I can't help but switch between all the different sloshers, they are so fun
Agreed! They take me a while to do, so always appreciate your patience. I want to make sure these are quality guides for y’all.

Marker is a good sub for it! I just wish it painted just a little bit more
the double and triple kill clips using splat bomb are actually blowing my mind right now so insane
as a tri slosher main, learning how to play slosher is something ive really wanted to do and this video really helps
Got a like bc nostalgic train hit me hard with the pokemon battle songs. Thx for your efforts aswell and im hyped for the remaining guides.
Soul silver is one of my favorite games, and one of my favorite things about making videos is picking the music. I usually try to match a theme.
Since Slosher requires you to train & train & train, I decided to put music that exemplified that mentality.
i don’t even play any sloshers, but a ton of these points are super helpful for most weapons. amazing guide
I’m glad it was still useful! Thank you for watching
This was great! So happy to see V Slosher talked about. I’ve been a slosher main since Splatoon 2, but I still learned some new and interesting stuff. Nice work!
Awesome, I’m glad to hear that!!
Slosher is such a cool weapon! I've been discouraged from using it because of skill and ttek, but I've been using deco instead. I didn't understand when you said Slosher has an ink problem, but from playing deco and not being reliant on sub usage, I found I had more than enough sloshes to fight. Not as bad as Machine though.
Yeah, a lot of its ink inefficiency is partly due to it having splat bomb and, when you compare it to other slayers.
Great guide!! I'm brand new to the slosher class but I've picked up tri nouveau recently, so can't wait for those guides down the line!
They’ll come!
I used to play Slosher in splatoon 2 and dropped it for other weapons in splatoon 3
But I have been missing playing the slosher so I started picking it up again thanks for a guide!
So happy to see a slosher based creator!!! So happy I found this video, can't wait for more guides! I'm a machine main
Welcome to the Slosher hub!!!
Thank you for a such a wonderful guide! I love my bucket but I felt like I'm not making the most of its full potential, this video was something what I needed. Looking forward for the future contents :)
Im glad you enjoyed it! Slosher Deco is coming next!

Amazing guide! Love seeing more slosher content being put out there. Keep it up Gus!
Thanks Link!

Flicking isnt something I'd noticed before today so this will be useful :)
Currently dabbling into these sloshers. Thanks for the info 👌
This was a very VERY GOOD Guide keep up the good work Gus!!!
Thank you Cross! Always appreciate your support since day 1. ☝🏽
oh.. so this is where all the slosher players came from XD
Has there been more popping up? lol
I can’t wait for the deco video but now I’ll learn how to use this one better~
It’ll come soon! It’ll be a shorter video since I’ll mainly recap a bunch of the stuff I said here for the main weapon but, I will ensure the quality stays the same!!
@@GUSplatoon thank you for your hard work! Will you do other videos if a new kit comes out or when balance changes, maps or abilities come out?
@@Xneocake good question, so the way it’s looking rn,

awesome video man! cant wait for the explo vid
Thank you so much Kit!
LETS GOOO THE SLOSHER CLASS GUIDE GUS OUR GOAT
YALL ARE THE GOATS!!
EYYY SLOSHER MAINS LESS GOOO
LETSSSS GOOOOOOOO
Really really helpful and awesome to see your growth, keep up the good work
One thing thats always confused me is why is burst bomb so hated on slosher specifically?
Slosher burst 70 combo: Talentless

Mmmmmh tri slosher guide crédits
I wanna start pick up slosher a bit more so I like the concept 👍
Ooooh, you know I’m going to have so much fun with tri’s guide. I’ll reach to you as well. Would love to get you involved in the process.
@@GUSplatoon would be neat
If you need gameplay as well
It's finally here :D
Thank you so much for your patience!!
Interested in what you’ll say about explo. It has to be one of my favorite weapons.
I honestly think it’s a good spot rn. Really strong. Crab just messes it up lol But, I’ll get to it eventually!
I would like a guide on tri slosher maybe
I am making them for all buckets :) After deco, I’ll focus on Tri
@@GUSplatoon good i'm struggling to get good with it even if it's a little brain dead
goat
That would be you sir!
i need this🤩🤩
Nice video, looking forward to future parts. The music made it hard to listen to though, maybe something a little easier on the ears, or even splatoon music would be nicer.
Noted! Was it the volume or just the music? I got feedback last time to not use Splatoon music so much so trying to find a balance
@@GUSplatoon oh interesting! Volume could help, maybe something less high pitched? I can't put my finger on exactly what quality of the music was making me feel that way.
Okay, thanks for the feedback. I’ll look into it.
