Small update. Patch 1.1 dropped today to fix a bunch of bugs, so the Sturgeon jump should now work properly without being able to stand out of bounds with the Rainmaker.
Hey do you know how to report bugs to Nintendo I recently found out that if you kill someone that carries the rainmaker above water the rain maker will disappear from the match (for me it was only for 1 minute) and if you want a clip of it here’s the replay code: R6L7-V7E8-RM2R-M306 it happened at 3:37 time left
Think you make an extended version of this video with new stage routes such as Brinewater Springs, Flounder Heights, Barnacle & Dime, Crableg Capital, Robo-Ramen, Unami Ruins, Manta Maria, Marlin Airport, Bluefin Depot, Humpback Pump Track, Shipshape Cargo Co., and Lemuria Hub?
Y’know checkpoints are actually way better than I expected tbh. On a good push you can still easily get the rainmaker again and just keep going, but the enemy team actually has time to respawn and regroup. It’s so good, I really don’t know how I’ll go back to 1 or 2
I could understand 1 because it’s just such a different era but at this point 2 is just a worse version of 3 with stupid balancing ever since the last few updates, I can’t see myself having any reason to play it once I get 3

I'd love to see more about Squid Roll. I know you already have a video on it but so far I've been finding them very difficult to pull off and use and I'd just like to see more on it. The way squid roll goes for me is one of three ways: I do it on accident, I try to do it and fail and am left more vulnerable than if I hadn't tried, or I don't even bother trying
As someone that primarily plays anchor, I hate it lol. Blasters and buckets just set up right below any spot I want to hold and keep me from actually playing.
I’m kinda surprised for Hammerhead, they didn’t put an alternative route to the far left side to spawn, or for Inkblot they made the left route from spawn that leads to the lower courtyard with the single tree a high-risk/reward alternative route

"For these tests, I used no swim speed or run speed" Fun fact! Your swim speed actually doesn't affect how far you jump, you'll be set to the same speed while jumping regardless of your gear abilities. (At least in Splatoon 2, I'm not sure if this is still the case in S3)
Chara can I just thank you for making these guides. Especially for splatoon 2. Me and my buds joined an esports team for the high school we were in at the time and you helped so much we actually placed third overall in California. And none of us had played in 3 years. I now you probably won’t see this but thank you.
Pretty solid video, only complaint/suggestion is talking more about the checkpoints and their points. Its really minor but certain checkpoints give more points then others due to their locations. Its worth keeping a mental note on it. Other then that yea its pretty accurate
Can you put up a gear guide soon? Nobody's really analyzed any of the abilities to see if there's any differences from 2 so idk what's worth grinding for rn
The only difference I have noticed so far is that Tenacity has been buffed. It now gives you a full special as soon as your team has the numbers disadvantage. Hope it gets used. The only other difference is that I think QR may activate each time you are splatter without splatting anyone. (In Splatoon 2 you had to 'die repeatedly') Have not tested this out though. Other than that I don't know any of the nitty gritty balances.
Not at all throwing shade when I say this, but I think there might be something off about your microphone, it's not awful or crackling or anything, but you just sound a little dampened, or muffled. Just figured I would mention it politely. Otherwise though, lovely tips, short and sweet information that I'm gonna try to use the next time I play Rainmaker. Thank you for the information!
Thanks for this! I like to think that if people like Putz applied themselves to make content like this they wouldn't be so ragey in game since you're forced to sit with your mistakes
Is it? I mean during neutral phases of the game yeah, but once you've got a good chunk of map control I think it's a solid position to just have under control
a little off topic but was playing salmon run and attempted to signal my teammates about the extra wave. for those that pay attention to the King silhouette filling up to try using "this way" to signal your teammates that you've triggered it. don't know if it'll work or matter getting an extra 10 seconds but it could be nice everyone having a little bit faster heads up.
when i first played rainmaker on mahi-mahi resort i was so disappointed, like i audibly went "what is this?!?" at the beginning of the match. they ruined my favorite map in the series
really not sure why they didnt just move the inkblot goal near where the clam basket is placed. it would fix the other route a bit and not really destroy the main route since you just have to squid roll over the gap. would also make jumping over the little statue thing a weird potential alt route.
While I think checkpoints are good, at sets up an opportunity to hold the rm hostage in your base if they haven't gotten a checkpoint with on consequences or risks
You missed 2 things on inkblot 1. The little side of the ramp u can use to squid surge up to the top part 2. That block on their base u can swim on the backwall for extra protection
On sturgeon right side once you get up the ramp you can get on the block and jump up there if you can't get by the main way i don't know about if it saves time or not
Can you do a full comparison of old to new hammerhead since it was changed so drastically? I like the new version but I only have vague memories of the old one so I can't really tell what was changed and I'm sure many other casual splat1 players can't remember either
basically there was a lot of stuff on the sides, and midroute was a massive long line of grates that basically went from both bases. i dont know if it was optimal but with a lot of run speed, you can basically hightail rainmaker down there
Are you coordinating this with dude so that you can make 2 videos each and cover all of the modes? Or maybe you do the routes and strategies while dude explains the modes and how to play them?
can you update your how to guide with the horizontal dynamo roll flick? please? You don't have any handcam showing how you do it, I can never do it in the training lobby.
Breakaway is some game condition where you're able to just run the Rainmaker forward, think of a run-for-it moment. These don't occur very often in higher-level play because a big part of the game is having game sense and awareness so you can realize when you're giving your opponent an opportunity for that kind of thing. I-frames (short for invincibility or invulnerability frames) are a term common to fighting games where you're unable to take damage for a certain number of frames (Splatoon 3 runs at 60 frames per second). For Splatoon 3, the only conditions I can think of you having I-frames is 1. when you come out of spawn, and 2. when you squid roll. In both these circumstances the invincibility is limited, so the "armor" breaks after a certain amount of hitpoints. I believe it's modeled after Splatoon 2's Ink Armor, so it would be 30 HPs. hope this helped!
I'd suggest you google some player builds for your weapon main. I mained the Octobrush and learned that many other players run Ninja Squid and Ink Resistance on it. If you could tell me what weapon you play most maybe I could give a suggestion? As for an ability that is good for many different kinds of weapons, you want to keep an eye on - Last Ditch Effort - Stealth Jump - Sub Saver, Main Saver, Ink Recovery - Swim Speed - Special Charge None of these abilities are perfect by themselves but they're generally at least a little helpful.
Could you make a video on the gear you will be running with the Range Blaster? I’m very curious what abilities you are going to want to have, because I’m torn between Main saver, Sub saver, and Intensify action
Even if that’s easier its still slower than just going to the top and jumping normally. Maybe in some situations that might work but just standing there facing the wall isn’t going work imo
Man checkpoints are great! Now instead of games ending in 5 seconds, they end in 10! Also, ranking back up to A rank is HELL with all the X rank players that are also trying to get back to S+ 0-100. Another note: chara isn't good at the super precise squid roll off wall jumps, so i can tell he hasn't played after alterna. I don't blame him though, those jumps are painful to do.
@@DPRK_Best_Korea same. Everytime i'm with a good team while i decide to try and improve on a different weapon, there's no "stick with team and change gear" so i have to leave and immediately get a bad team once i switch to my main.
@@BlueBerry20071 for my last 10 ranked matches, if I picked anchor, I ended up on a team with double anchor. If I chose a support weapon, I ended up on a team with no anchor at all. I've been getting trolled so hard by matchmaking idk what to do lol.
Short answer... both yes and no. For blasters in general, and similar weapons, movement is incredibly important. It's a rather complicated concept but basically it has to do with being vulnerable and being mobile- two things that blasters have to keep an eye on. In Splatoon 3, Intensify Action now greatly reduces your jump inaccuracy, so jumping with blasters is finally viable and a good strategy if you have intensify action equipped. In Splatoon 2, and without Intensify Action, jumping is a little more situational. It's hard to explain everything about it here.
Hi Chara, i know it's a weird question, but since I'm not that great at this game, can i ask you what is your discord nickname? I would appreciate hints from a pro, I watched your video about tips and tricks to become great, but i don't really get how to do those in the first place, so... I know it's weird, don't judge me please 😅

THANK YOU SO MUCH. i was lowkey waiting on this video i was looking for rainmaker shortcuts for HOURS but couldn't find them :(
Cant wait to see if this video gets remade with the 12 new update maps
thank you for this video. it helps me alot as a hydra backline trying to play defense now i know all the spots i need to specifically watch out for.

Thanks! The new recon mechanics are a game changer I can see
I hope we can see another one of these at the end of Splatoon 3's lifetime like idk last updates when all of the maps are here prob!
Can’t wait to hear you talk about all of the maps in more detail

Nice, I was looking for a video like this!
yay i'm early again, i'm so excited to see what you will show for splatoon 3, these are gonna help me alot cuz i suck at rainmaker lol
I would love to hear your thoughts about all of the new / reworked stages :)
This video was very helpful btw when u go up the checkpoint or end goal if u surge up it u get some s
Can you please make a remastered version please? It be really cool to see all the routes n the new routes!
thank you so much chara, love ur vids and ive improved so much from watching your videos
Thanks for this! I like to think that if people like Putz applied themselves to make content like this they wouldn't be so ragey in game since you're forced to sit with your mistakes
I might need a bit of time to learn how to double squid roll, but it'll be worth it!
This is an excellent goal. Now if I can only remember to squid roll.
Time to sweep the competition with these new strategies
I get the feeling a video discussing all the stages and ranking their designs might be in the works
As a first-time Splatoon player, both the rainmaker and clam modes confuse the hell out of me. Really gotta learn the movement options
See the rat
I haven't played rainmaker on scorch gorge yet, but holy hell, that should just be the default layout, it would make games way more fun.
Once the free update for this game ends you'll have to make an updated version for the new maps RM routes as well lol
We NEED a rapid blaster with tacticooler.
btw some jp player discovered a super useful wall jump off of the left block on sturgeon to get across more safely
Finally, time to get better at my favorite mode
Having the bridge in Eeltail is suuuuuuch a strong position
Unless your slayers are getting bodied by a blaster or sloshing machine. Then being on bridge is suicide.
Is it? I mean during neutral phases of the game yeah, but once you've got a good chunk of map control I think it's a solid position to just have under control
Understatement of the year 😂
I did exactly as you said but in every game there were 4 enemies so I couldn't follow through :(
... I'm gonna use that out of bounds for stalling, and no one can stop me
I love the thumbnail me when I’m doing homework
Can’t wait for my teammates to completely ignore the Inkblot Academy advice and just throw.
Thank you this will help me great video!

Cheers bro
My main goal is to at least get to rank S, then if i get further, then good for me i guess
I like rainmaker more than other ranked modes because it's entirely based on player movement.
Great video! I have a question, when are you going to rank all of the Splatoon 3’s specials?
Are you coordinating this with dude so that you can make 2 videos each and cover all of the modes? Or maybe you do the routes and strategies while dude explains the modes and how to play them?
Can u do a remake of this?
The best tactic for Rainmaker is to play like a Dynamo; That is, play Front-Line Support
honestly we dont see a lot of squid roll boosting so i hope we get to see them more
Wow. Seems like this video picked up a ton of new Splatoon 3 players on the algorithm...
Yay...I guess..?
Hey, I was wondering if we can get an overall map guide for turf war so people like me, (ok but not too good) can learn and help our team.

Wait till Putz streams tonight and he rips this video apart for no reason 😭💀
can you update your how to guide with the horizontal dynamo roll flick? please? You don't have any handcam showing how you do it, I can never do it in the training lobby.
What’s a breakaway? And what’s an i-frame? Is it i-frame or eyeframe?
Breakaway is some game condition where you're able to just run the Rainmaker forward, think of a run-for-it moment. These don't occur very often in higher-level play because a big part of the game is having game sense and awareness so you can realize when you're giving your opponent an opportunity for that kind of thing.
I-frames (short for invincibility or invulnerability frames) are a term common to fighting games where you're unable to take damage for a certain number of frames (Splatoon 3 runs at 60 frames per second). For Splatoon 3, the only conditions I can think of you having I-frames is 1. when you come out of spawn, and 2. when you squid roll. In both these circumstances the invincibility is limited, so the "armor" breaks after a certain amount of hitpoints. I believe it's modeled after Splatoon 2's Ink Armor, so it would be 30 HPs.

As for an ability that is good for many different kinds of weapons, you want to keep an eye on
- Last Ditch Effort
- Stealth Jump
- Sub Saver, Main Saver, Ink Recovery
- Swim Speed
- Special Charge
None of these abilities are perfect by themselves but they're generally at least a little helpful.

Even if that’s easier its still slower than just going to the top and jumping normally. Maybe in some situations that might work but just standing there facing the wall isn’t going work imo
