The snipewritter was seen as nothing more then a meme upon its initial release, so what happened to change it into one of the best weapons in the game so fast?

Wow 🤯🤯🤯
What if I do PROCHARA100
I found the ad section really interesting and funny. Really love Logi's style of making ads combined with Splatoon backgrounds.
I was thinking at a meme team made only by players using weapons with tacticooler and sprinkler as specials and make something like a sentry nest
Ay Chara got sponsored!!
Pencil going from Z to X tier is truely a Splatoon moment of all time
It’s not, the splatoon moment of all time is “ A communication error has occurred.”
truly* 🤓
@@zenferns no one cares
@@Witherboss2491no one cares.* 🤓
funny how tacticooler was theorized to be top tier before the game came out, actually turned out to be low tier on launch, and then a year later is finally the top tier it was always meant to be
And the EXACT same thing happened to Snipewriter 😂
It takes time to practice, learn new skills, and master them.
We had the theory before we just needed the execution.
Who knows, maybe some of the low tier weapons are actually underrated and just need more time to shine in the meta.
@@mexicanhonoka Yeah! When you really think about it, every weapon in the game has a counter pick that’s meant to be able to beat it. Just some ones I’ve thought up include
Splash gets countered by vtent
Heavy Deco gets countered by Light Tetras
Slosher Deco counters E-Liter
Starting at splash anyway, it could be imagined as one giant chain of countering one another. At least on paper- since some weapon’s functions don’t play out how the devs expect them to, patches are meant to fix up those weapons so that the chain can reassemble itself. If one link is broken, the prior weapon essentially becomes meta since there’s no hard counter pick. If that makes any sense
@@mexicanhonokaThe Special Power Up effectiveness buffs and the rise of Inkjet were what really made it shine
Pencil is a good example of "careful who you call ugly in squid-school".
True never bully that awkward kid
@@Style_224uh oh…
I don't know who your editor is but needs a raise because godDAMN this is some beatiful editing.
❤
Amazingly well done Logi
I swear i could hear the yoda death scream in my head when sprinkler shot cooler out of existence
One could say the pencil got sharpened.
I was one of the people that got scared upon seeing Snipewriter's reveal. I fully expected a charger that fires at the speed of a Bamboozler but with the range of a Splatterscope to become a dominance that would haunt the dreams of many.
I turned out to be wrong, but a few months later I turned out to be wrong about being wrong.
Exactly my reaction
It was definitely scary on release seeing like 3 of them at once it was like laser tag of doom man
during the reveal i genuinely thought it had bamboo range somehow. was very confused when the patch finally dropped
When it dropped, I thought the main was pretty good but just needed another kit. When it got the buffs to the main and sub/special, I was still curious where its useage was. Little did I know that it was lurking in the shadows
Snipewriter’s glow up has been really cool to see; especially for a weapon with such cool design! A pencil charger that has five shots and is based around mobility… really great stuff!
It’s the M38 Mosin of splatoon.
It's kinda based around mobility in some ways, but there's also the fact that it can't store charges when swimming.
@@nmotschidontwannagivemyrea8932 Well, considering the fact that most chargers other than squiffer and maybe bamboozler are very immobile while charged, I'd consider snipewriter mobility-based
@@desmondruhling Again, they're immobile unless you consider charge storage. Charge storage doesn't mean everything, sure, but it's worth considering.
pencil rubber erasing its past 💀
Bro what😂!
Flip damn it 😂
i was actually so confused when i found out it was suddenly really good 😭😭 this is really helpful
3:43 I'm glad they buffed Luna so that it can paint a wall better
It's gonna be SO useful in a game with zero inkable walls
TRUE
Chara you better be paying your editors well, they deserve it for how incredibly high-quality their work is
Honestly not much changed about the weapon aside from a slight damage buff and a tacticooler buff, I think it was just the change in the playerbase and meta and Snipewriter got caught in the middle of it.
2:54 the goofy ahh Spider-Man 🤣
One of the reasons I like Cooler Meta far more than Crab Meta is that while playing Crab Meta optimally meant having at least 2 different crabs on your team, with Cooler you only ever need 1 on your team, making team composition much more interesting as you have 3 different slots to use for whatever weapons you want, not to mention there being several cooler options as opposed to Crab requiring Splash and that kinda being it.
I always knew from the start the kit was good for snipe writer, just bcs cooler was a bad special at the time didnt mean it was a bad kit for snipewriter. I remember people saying like this is the most trash kit ever, but i got hooked on it right at the start, and i still love to use it today
I wasn’t expecting to see Spoderman in a ProChara video. I am pleasantly surprised.
Hold on, I've never seen that animation of an inkling counting their fingers before (1:25). Whether the animation is unused or completely fanmade, it's incredible someone went this far just to make a five second clip for a RUclips video. That's some insane dedication right there.
Edit: Apparently it's an animation that plays for characters near the tableturf desk, but my point still stands that I'm impressed someone must have modded the game in order for this animation to play in the center of Splatsville, where it would usually never play.
i think its an animation seen in the plaza near table turf areas
How it went from bottom tier to absolute dominant and hated in the community
Something I think went way too unnoticed about this video is how Chara calls it "pencil" the whole video until the very last sentence where he finally rewards it by calling it its actual name, Snipewriter, and it feels kinda triumphant in a way like you had to see the video the very end to hear it referred to proper and I feel like he knew the whole time.
Chara has the best thumbnails in the Splatoon 3 community
Personally, im more partial to Ted.
Using MakoMart footage for the food sponsor is a really cute detail!
i remember when i was playing the snipewriter, my friend was angry i was using it bc it was bad and i said "just you wait this things going to be top tier one day"
I tried it out since it came out, painted really good but not until did i really ran it in ranked did i see how really fun it was to be the one person keeping the team at mid
The editing on that factor ad segment was actually really convincing lmao
The editing and display of information has gotten so incredibly good! You really need to pat that person on the back (and / or give them a raise). I also love how the ad featured Splatoon images that fit perfectly and made me smile.
In a game like this, the goal is always to make every weapon a viable option, as well as to fit as many playstyles as possible. Splatoon 3 is slowly getting there.
I think that the discovery/popularization of snipewriter's zone cheese at around the same time the cooler meta was beginning its theory crafting was a really important coincidence for the weapon. It didn't effect how the weapon worked, but it did make people try it, to prove it can work, which is always something really important for large meta shifts like this. Glad to see balance done so well and read so quickly by top players!
WHOEVER EDITED THIS IS SO GOOD
True logitech moment
I should add, Even a solo queue for Snipewriter is very viable. That's a huge impact.
👍✌️🤌👍👌❤🔥🗿 2:54
Incredible freeze frame
I was in love with this weapon from Day 1! I'm so happy it's finally a top tier!
Dude, I truly can't put into words how insane time has passed. The metagame has never been so fun! I may remember the splatoon scene from the cursed days of GQ... But it's amazing to see you and other players thriving. I hope the community remains as a place for positive interactions.
Snipewriter goes from bottom to top tier
Splattershot Nova mains: "so you're saying there's hope....."
Im loving all of these new visuals you are experimenting with, keep it up!
i think its important to add that better strafe speed also helps it take more aggressive positions, because its better able to move away from threats and react
The jellyfish in the sponsor portion are so adorable! I want to hug them!
somehow dynamo gets into every video on how a weapon should “not do this certain thing” (uptime)
Bro really thought he could put spooderman in and we wouldn’t notice
I WAS JUST TRYING TO CATCH UP WITH THE META AND WONDERED HOW PENC8L GOT SO HIGH SO FAST
Can we get much higher?
This is the video I needed that I never knew I was gonna get. seeing your vids lately & hearing how amazing this weapon became, I felt like I woke up in an alternative universe where it was agreed upon this weapon is just... good now, I guess.
Splatoon metaq is beautiful and thanks for being the one who covered it, Chara!
Crazy how it was pretty much a joke pick, and now it’s just one of the best options
This just goes to show just because it garbage now dosent mean it can become stronger later on
You could say people started capitalizing on its main... Draws.
I've started playing pencil in turf war and anarchy battles and absolutely sweeping. Love this thing, and I don't usually play chargers.
Excellent video that was extremely insightful especially for someone like me who's been out of the loop for awhile plus crazy good editing
The quality of these vids continues to improve, keep it up man 😄
We really needed this video
I always loved Snipewriter and was really disappointed by how bad it was in the beginning. I love how it's risen and perhaps we can see something very interesting with the Snipewriter 5H Nouveau (I think that's what it will be called).
I’m hoping for Mist/Zooka on it. Mist would (on paper) make it easier to land shots some pretty precise shots and zooka would combo very nicely
@@lemonquacklolIf they made it possible for snipewriter to throw subs while holding a charge then I can totally see this being amazing, but honestly it doesn’t REALLY need that sub in general just because it’s not useful from how far it plays. It can be good in close encounters tho, but from my months of experience with it you’re better off just tap shotting if ur good enough at it than using a sub.
@@lemonquacklol I don’t see why not to make them better. They’re also some of my favorite weapons in the sub and special departments.
@@appleant1083 I’d much rather want something like burst, but that might be a tad bit broken. Otherwise maybe Suction (since, correct me if I’m wrong, I don’t think it’s on any charger yet)?
I don't wanna see anyone complain abt "now everyone's gonna play pencil" like last time lmao
the spiderman at 2:52 made me laugh more than it should
I love pencil’s mechanic. I’m glad to see it flourishing.
Yay we finally see a meme weapon become a top tier
I always thought the weapon was an eldritch horror haunting it’s opponents nightmares in the right hands
I will say, I normally am not a fan of sponsorship ads . . . but chara managed to do it in a way that actually made me want to watch it? Using the splatoon clips/animations in the background is a really neat idea, kudos!
At first I really didn’t like pencil but I wanted to because I love the design and now that it’s basically meta! I’m excited
Now pencil is really good but they could make it even better if they merge it with goo tuber, perhaps they’d have to reduce the range to slightly less than unscoped charger but it would be literally perfect for both weapons, this would be goo’s saving grace and also making pencil even better
Also great video, as always❤
I'm glad this weapon got buffed, but I haven't seen it too much during solo queue
A pencil dealing with a ton of hate because of the old meta, to a pencil which everyone loves because of the new meta and cooler
Truly a certified Splatoon moment OF ALL TIME👏👏👏
how tristringer speedran from top to bottom tier
It’s really cool design wise it’s a charger splatling hybrid and I just love that
2:50 *prochara talking about weapon weaknesses*
2:54 *a wild spooderman appears!*
Splatoon 3 is peak Balancing because, instead of overnerfing something good, they buff things that counter it, making not only a healthy meta but more weapons viable as time goes on.
S3 could be peak Splatoon too, but we need better matchmaking, connection and kits. I'm glad maps and balancing are gladly improving over time, I'm sure this and Side Order being near it's finishing stage are correlated in some way or another. Things will get better from now onwards, I'm calling it.
I started maining snipewriter when it started to become meta (and I was oblivious to it at the time), I thought its playstyle was really fun and the weapon's design is overall really cool
SCREEN IS FIXED YALLLL
Fun fact about Tacticooler: You can use it as bodyblock for you and your friends in every mode! 👋 Bye!
GET THAT CHECK!!! great video
The Thumbnail is Funny because it sounds Like Pencil was a Slump, Broke Begging For Buffs, now it’s King of the Meta and Backlines are the ones Begging for Buffs 🤣
my question is, if a different more standard charger would get tacticooler and a synergistic sub, wouldn't it be better or downright replace snipewriter? I feel like snipewriter still fails to punish a lot of stuff like other chargers can
I love to see a sniper actually being good
We do not talk about splatoon 2
I never could've imagined a weapon that's simultaneously one of the best in competitive and one of the worst in salmon run.
Man i would have never thought this weapon would ever get the time of day. Im going to have to pick it back up again. Next kit better have burst bomb.
The amount of times ive charged this thing then forgot and gone into ink wasting it is too numerous to count
After not playing since chill season this meta feels like a fucking fever dream
pencil is genuinely a really fun weapon, it might be my favorite charger. i’m glad it became so viable
I always did love the weapon even with the backlash so im glad that it had a rise in tiers
W video!! Sniperwiter's story is so insane and I just wish something like that could happen to Dynamo or H-3.
I do have to ask how you got the poses in recon to hold weapons when they aren't able to. I really like recon and I would like to know
Yooooo, Chara getting the bag, glad to see 🎉
"Press R Stick to Die"
"F"
Meanwhile me who's at least 4 starred every Reefslider weapon except one:
The spooder man for the chainsaw special 😂
I loved the video thanks chara!
The sprinkler buff saved this weapon. It's just too op now.
Finally, the video that answers my question: “Why the hell is pencil top tier now?”
Ah yes, my favorite narrative of all time
*squid game pencil *
They told me I was crazy for saying it was good, they called me a mad man, WHO'S LAUGHING NOW
Snipewriter woke up one day at the top of the tier list and was like "how tf did I get here"
nice video prochara
now all we need is better paint for dapples and we can sneak into high tier
Snipewriter is the best splatling.
Playing Pencil on Mincemeat Zones is really good after a couple of rounds with it I was able to get 8-9 coolers with like 20K/A.
It is definitely funny looking back and seeing how this weapon did a complete 180
Sniperwriter is the perfect example of a weapon being in the right place at the right time. That time being in cooler meta.
can’t wait for reefslider to get crazy ass buffs and see team comps of tetras, s blast, and dread wringer (totally not coping)
My boy is now good. Im in tears. 😢
Me about to use a VPN so that the factor delivery man brings the meal to Mexico
Alright Nintendo, I see what you’ve done with the Snipewriter, now do the same to the Undercover.
I've never really been good with chargers, but I did 5 star n zap 85 before it was truly meta, so I have a ton of experience with tacticooler, maybe I'll give snipewriter a 2nd look now
imagine the dynamo comeback arc
Pencil speedran from bottom to top tier, whereas pen just speedran to top
CHARA GOT A SPONSER LETS GO
Brooo, that funky as spooderman.
