Inside the Mind of Splatoon 3 Stringer Mains

  • Опубликовано: 12 сен 2024
  • With Splatoon 3 out now, there’s been a bunch of new kits and weapon types available to players. One new weapon type are the Splatoon 3 Stringers. The stringers are a bow and arrow style class with very long range and potentially high damage output. That said, they’re more meant to support the rest of your team by racking up chip damage on enemy players in order to make them an easy splat. Right now, there’s 2 options for the types of Splatoon 3 players who’d like to get into the stringer class: the tri-stringer and the REEF-LUX. The prior is a long ranged bow that has arrows which explode shortly after impact while the latter is a faster bow that can store its charge. In the right hands, the Splatoon 3 stringers can be a real threat on the field. What weapon would you like me to cover next?

    Since the devs are still in the process of rolling out weapons as time goes on, I'll be happy to make ITMs on other stringers that are released if they're unique enough! For now though, what main or special weapon would you like me to do next? Let me know right here in the comments! 😉

    I was struggling to find weapon that worked for me since Splatoon 2. I simply tried to tri-stinger by chance during the World Premiere, and I fell in love with it. I don't know why but I just vibe with it so hard, and I found it easier to use that squiffers! I never had splats above 17 until I played the weapon (getting 28 splats makes you feel so good fr-)

    The reason why I love the tri stringer ans why I main It is because of how versatile it can be. The three shots are great for chip damage, and if you are more confident in your aim, you can get 1 shots. The lack of a laser also makes stringer users a pain to find.

    • @Alphastar716

      Just remember that when Sheldon says that the reef-lux is about mobility _he means it_ lol. use your curling bombs to absolutely soar around the map and quick jumpshots to get vertical ink lines from the bow and you can escape basically any fight you want lol, the survivability on this is insane. On top of that if you get good with your aim a fully charged shot can either ohko or make the next shot kill guaranteed lol, so it's pretty good at splatting too.
      Never neglect your tentamissiles btw, navigate to a safe spot fast and you can spam those things like nobody's business lol.

    What if you did a mini game called Bow Battles. The rules are you can’t kill people until you have them in you mist. A kill is one point. A double kill would be 2 points, a triple kill would be 3 points points, and a wipeout is 4 points. If you kill someone without the mist the other team will get an automatic 4 points. This battle will take places in turf war. And another thing I forgot to mention is if you win the turf war it’s an extra point.The team with the most points wins. Please pick this mini game and if you pick it it would be the first mini game for splatoon 3.

    Is it bad that I keep referring the Stringer as the “Splat bow?”

    I fully believe that two direct hits from arrows should be enough to splat ngl, also the bubble thing (the sub I forgot it's name) is way too weak

      It is a useful sub for when you have an opponent in a corner, as it makes your shots do more damage. While the stringer shots may seem weak at first, a bit of practice with it shows how infuriating they can be to fight.
