@@rufian22yeah in comparison to daps, undercover is just so much worse. Not only is it stuck with a bad kit, the shield is made of paper, and it does almost no damage. The only aspect of it that is better than dapple is its range. But that is rendered mute by dap's rolls. It definitely needs some buffs. I mean the reefslider fix was good but still, it's really bad. I'm still maining it for some reason though.
Squiffer is my favourite weapon to watch in comp because of the way top players jump around all over the place with it. I kinda suck with it but I want to learn the weapon just because of how cool it is imo.
oh yeah, I suck with it but it's just so fun. nothing will ever beat catching the enemy eliter through a grate on the skywalk in eeltail alley. magical moment
Yeah no that would be a nerf. jumping during a charge after or just before the first full charge ring slows down the charge and gives you more options for how you want to spread explosive arrows on the battlefield. This is necessary for stringers to have all their unique shot placement options
It was treated fairly well in 1, with great/decent kits, became a mid mpu weapon in 2 (kits didn’t help), and became shit in 3 (no mpu and distance nerf from 1 to 2 kills it. plus the kits are so mid)
Love this video and the basic idea of it: showcasing a weapon's history and how its changes are healthy or unhealthy for the game. Chara, you continue to be an EXCELLENT presenter! 👍
Been playing squiff a lot recently, and it is so much fun. Crab cancelling while falling is soooo satisfying and I pray the fresh squiffer has zip and a good sub. It also made me realize charge didn’t mean sniper when I got out ranged by a slosher.
As a dapple Duallies main, a miss the torpedo splashdown kit because it let me be aggressive, but now? Reef slider is meh, but at least I got my torpedo
I'm going to play ranked today and I'm almost sure it's going to be full of squifers. Everytime Chara uploads about a specific weapon my lobbies are suddenly flooded with said weapon
Thnak you for talking about my favorite weapon in the game !!! i main squiffer since i started playing the game back in splatoon 2 and i absolutely love it. I really hope they actually put the zipcaster kit in the game.
The one thing I hope for the squiffer in the future is that if sheldon's picks return, I want the fresh squiffer to use the original/older design (and a fun kit) I just dont really like the redesign :/
I also main squiffer and I think using auto bomb was really good in splatoon 2 and on top of that I think zip would combo really well with the no air delay charge
I appreciate how the video focuses on a specific "thing" of the series, a main weapon. Even as a casual viewing experience, no "learning to get better" motives in mind, it's interesting. The weapon is fun so watching an essay talking about it also is, by extension
I honestly love how aggressive squiffer is, out of all the chargers currently in the game its my favorite one lol (Also hope that it gets kraken back like how it was in 1)
Random, but I'd love to see a video of your story with proffessional and casual splatoon, like all your teams, tourment wins/participation, mains throughout the years, and general experiences :))
Squiffer's always been one of my favorite weapons ever since the 1st game. Finally got to learn how to use it in 3 and it's so much fun to just jump around and snipe people
I loved playing the squiffer in splatoon 2, but it got hard to use as you did explain. There are just so many specials that are hard to avoid with the placement of squiffer. I hope it gets more attention in this game, not by the devs, but by other people.
playing defensive is fun and i really like playing eliter BUT squiffer allows for a variety in gameplay where i can play aggressively :3 very fun weapon
Squiffer's my favorite charger. Love that it's getting a bit of it here. Got memed on by a team of Squiffers in the final fest in Spla2n. But that's besides the point.
Hi it's me the mythical splat1 squiffer main. What's interesting is that looking over the original trailers and footage for splatoon 1 it seems squiffer was the very first charger ever concieved appearing way before even beta realistic-looking charger and served as a testbed for the class with TONS of kit pieces. It was seen with burst, disruptor, wall, and even inkstrike. I'm still not crazy about zip squiffer but with inkjet being not trash now either of the fresh squiffers will be great now and other changes have made both new squiffer kits(with hammer replacing baller) much more promising if we get them in the future. I honestly cant take it for granted that there is no way to reference a past kit in a bad way for my favorite weapon.
I am extremely happy with this video, the only thing i want from squiffer now is a slight range increase, bcs it feels like it was lacking now bcs of no mpu, and a kit with zip, but honistly i can think of many great special squiffer can get, krakon royal, zip caster, ink jet, trizooka, its had many good special that worked for it well, and for its subs, an auto bomb, and suction is always nice for it too
It's kinda funny how coincidence this is on my side. I was playing around with Squiffer because of its midair charge and seeing this makes me want to be an aggressive sniper. I was playing Z+F Charger a lot, so I got aiming down to use the weapon properly.
I love those short clips of gameplay without the UI or the inkling viewed from various points of view you wouldn't usually be able to set up in the game, because someone must have modified the game in order to create those clips, and they did it all just so they could get footage for a discussion video. That's what I call dedication.
the best way to play squiffer is to utilize the charge hold and no charge penalty midair . aka constantly jump whenever you charge during a fight lmao i main squiffer but ive been playing mostly wiper recently (and before that dynamo + explo -- aka just my mains other than squiffer) but this video made me wanna play it again lol squiffer my beloved
So that is why headphones from splatoon manga use this weapon. Also, I used this weapon in salmon run, and oh boy, this weapon shot is okay. Besides any changer , this one is the first step of using this weapon
I think wave breaker could be a great special for the weapon. Jumping or squid rolling is a predictable motion that I think squiffer players can easily take advantage of. As for the sub, torp could combo off of the waves well if the player on defense doesn't want to or can't jump, as well as just being a better point sensor to locate targets. Thoughts?
this entire video reminded me of my squiffer days in splat 2 and that made me want to pick it back up… squiffer my beloved you need another kit point sensor is so boring despite it being useful
It’s nice seeing squiffer getting so much love from the devs. I wonder when Brella’s are gonna get this same love 😉😉
Heh
Or Dapple
@@mastrsonic375 Dapple dualie main: you don't understand my pain 😢
Undercover Brella main: You're right, have a good day 💀
@@rufian22 but like dapple dualies are pretty fun ngl.

Coming back to this video after Zipcaster Squiffer got announced

oh yeah, I suck with it but it's just so fun. nothing will ever beat catching the enemy eliter through a grate on the skywalk in eeltail alley. magical moment
As a squiffer main, it’s worth learning
This video really helped me as a squiffer main
Wonder how they'll handle Fresh Squiffer once that comes around
They needa give squiffer its kraken back
@@mystic5175 I was just about to post kraken probably
@@mystic5175 please stop with callback kits
@@internetguy7319 would you rather have ultra stamp cuz I'm good with both hahahhahaha
It just needs needs Torpedo Zipcaster lol
Nice to see us squiffer mains being acknowledged.
best charger no cap
fr
@@SirL_56 agreed
Best weapon to main
Agreed! Best charger ever!
The year is 2050. I am the only dapples main remaining. Nintendo confirmed the 10th kit for it. 210p missles and line marker. Glorious
Is that a good or bad thing? Serious question, I wouldn’t know.
By far the BEST weapon to watch a video montage on
I still feel that Tri-Stringer should have the same jump arm time physics as Squiffer
I would prefer it didn't because half-charged shots are as useful or even sometimes more useful than full charged shots.
Reef should but definitely not tri stringer
@@AnthanKrufixno because it would be a better swuiffer
Yeah no that would be a nerf. jumping during a charge after or just before the first full charge ring slows down the charge and gives you more options for how you want to spread explosive arrows on the battlefield. This is necessary for stringers to have all their unique shot placement options
I’d prefer it REEF-LUX got this kind of buff
I love how the splatoon title cards at the beginning are different based on the game's art style, really nice touch!
1:38 I FORGOT HOW SMALL KRAKEN WAS IN S1 LMFAOOOOOO
it looks so tiny it’s so ffunny
I'd love to see a breakdown on the Splattershot Pro's history, given how it's been such a roller coaster over the years.
I miss my Berry Pro dearly
He already did lmao
@@slurples149 He's done an overview of the weapon's problems, but not its history, really, besides that history being "it's bad"
It was treated fairly well in 1, with great/decent kits, became a mid mpu weapon in 2 (kits didn’t help), and became shit in 3 (no mpu and distance nerf from 1 to 2 kills it. plus the kits are so mid)
Coming back to this weapon AGAIN because of Reeflux getting the same trait
Love this video and the basic idea of it: showcasing a weapon's history and how its changes are healthy or unhealthy for the game. Chara, you continue to be an EXCELLENT presenter! 👍
Been playing squiff a lot recently, and it is so much fun. Crab cancelling while falling is soooo satisfying and I pray the fresh squiffer has zip and a good sub. It also made me realize charge didn’t mean sniper when I got out ranged by a slosher.
imagine burst bomb on it (never gonna happen)
1. Explosher to win!
2. Squiff is a really good beginner charger, in my eyes at least.
You’ll never guess what happened
6:53 I'm not gonna let this one slip Chara
As a dapple Duallies main, a miss the torpedo splashdown kit because it let me be aggressive, but now? Reef slider is meh, but at least I got my torpedo
I'm going to play ranked today and I'm almost sure it's going to be full of squifers.
Everytime Chara uploads about a specific weapon my lobbies are suddenly flooded with said weapon
I was watching this video in between anarchy matches and there was always at least 1 squiffer throughout lmaoo
HE PREDICTED IT
I'd love to see a charger with zipcaster, and I think squiffer would work the best with it.
If Squiffer doesn't get Zip, I *will* riot.
@@Quargos:]
Looks like your dreams have come true
Thnak you for talking about my favorite weapon in the game !!! i main squiffer since i started playing the game back in splatoon 2 and i absolutely love it. I really hope they actually put the zipcaster kit in the game.
5:04 bro this edit 😂 i cant
This is the most informative AND entertaining video I’ve ever seen on Splatoon. Great editing, scripting, pacing Chara! I really like this video
squiffer has been one of my favorite weapons since I started the game back in S2, I'm glad its getting the recognization it deserves
Kraken Royale makes OG Kraken look like normal squid form *wow.*
Glad to see Logi editing this video. Love their music taste too
❤
As a squiffer main, it definetly got better over time it may not be as popular, but it is underrated sometimes.
Chara's amazing game knowledge & explanations and Logi's amazing editing are a perfect combination
The one thing I hope for the squiffer in the future is that if sheldon's picks return, I want the fresh squiffer to use the original/older design (and a fun kit)
I just dont really like the redesign :/
God damn the Zipcaster Squiffer is going to be so fun to use, when it comes out
IF it comes out
@@mystic5175 it's very very likely considering the air-charge mechanic is unique to this weapon, we'll have to see in future updates
@Xpload yeah but these are the same splatoon devs who haven't buffed brellas or nerfed the splash so don't get your hopes up
I love squiffer as it is my main, but I want a more aggressive kit
It just needs a bomb that deals damage and an aggressive special and I'm satisfied
logi popped off with this one fr
I am a squiffer main and i really want my autobomb inkjet/zipcaster/kraken
I also main squiffer and I think using auto bomb was really good in splatoon 2 and on top of that I think zip would combo really well with the no air delay charge
Im have been a squiffer main since splat1 and seeing this is just really heartwarming
I’ve been a huge Squiffer fan since S2. I really hope it gets Zipcaster in the future.
Squiffer is a really fun spin on the charger class as a more aggressive charger. It’s the only charger I actually like playing.
I appreciate how the video focuses on a specific "thing" of the series, a main weapon. Even as a casual viewing experience, no "learning to get better" motives in mind, it's interesting. The weapon is fun so watching an essay talking about it also is, by extension
The game design aspect of your channel is actually great
Shoutout to anyone who got here

thanks?

Hey
I honestly love how aggressive squiffer is, out of all the chargers currently in the game its my favorite one lol
(Also hope that it gets kraken back like how it was in 1)
It makes me really happy to see a video covering my favorite weapon :)
I picked it up since S2 and it’s been my go to weapon since then.
Yooooo shout-out to the DUDE gameplay in the background, very funny guy. Excellent sniper as well!
I don't play chargers often but this is definitely my favorite one
Was not expecting the squiffer documentary today but shiiiit I'm not complaining.
3:24
Chara, did you mean shooter’s?
I heard the word *sh!tters*
So did i
Random, but I'd love to see a video of your story with proffessional and casual splatoon, like all your teams, tourment wins/participation, mains throughout the years, and general experiences :))
Nice I am here for the Squiffer life. I'm gonna take some of these notes and to help with my Squiffer plays.
As a squiffer enjoyer, this makes me very happy.
after this video x rank has been full of squiffers
Video 116 of commenting on Chara videos till brella gets fixed
you poor soul…🙏🙏
Squiffer's always been one of my favorite weapons ever since the 1st game. Finally got to learn how to use it in 3 and it's so much fun to just jump around and snipe people
The squiffer mains are screaming right now
Yes we are! Very loudly.
fresh squiffer in splatoon 3 when
SQUIFFER MY BELOVED
3:23 That's definitely a weapon class huh.
You're giving the devs a LOT of credit. Some weapons are just doomed permanently and others are lifted into the meta
I loved playing the squiffer in splatoon 2, but it got hard to use as you did explain. There are just so many specials that are hard to avoid with the placement of squiffer. I hope it gets more attention in this game, not by the devs, but by other people.
“You can even squid roll off a paintable wall!” Uhh… didn’t they remove pretty much all of them?
Loved that u used tekken 4 ost in the vid. 👌
Every time I feel down while playing squiffer, I watch this video, and I feel happy
Hey, you told me about this in your twitch stream!
playing defensive is fun and i really like playing eliter BUT squiffer allows for a variety in gameplay where i can play aggressively :3 very fun weapon

I never realized how scary Squiffer + Zipcaster could be. I hope they add that in - that sounds like the perfect kit combo to have fun with.
I picked up this weapon in the 3rd game and was amazed at how good of a weapon it is, hopefully we get to see more of them on comp play
im so happy about this video i have been maining squiffer classic and fresh since splatoon 1 Thank you Chara!!!!!!
Very fun to use when you have a bunch of swim speed ups
This video demonstrates well how bamboo is hurt by having no charge hold

With the Big Bubbler, a Squiffer main soloed my entire team on Splat Zones Flounder Heights in S+.
this is so crazy I literally just started playing squifer yesterday 😮
Finally some Squiffer love. I still find this weapon to be the most fun to main, even after really dropping the game.
YES SPREAD THE GOSPEL OF SQUIFFER

This video made me try squiffer and it’s so fun! even though I have garbage aim it kinda fits my play style
Gonna admit, fighting squiffer as a frontliner is intense.
so early that we seein the draft again
Great vid, keep up the good work!👍
It's so funny because this is one of my main weapons that I love the kit of, and feels so good to use when I can actually decently aim lol
I wish my undercover brella gets some love.
squiffer zipcaster is gonna be OP, im calling it now
Great now i feel like everybody will use squiffer. Not a problem to me bc i always liked this weapon from the design down to the usage
Awesome video chara!
i mained it from 1, it's such a satisfying weapon to splat with
