More wonderful artwork of Myrsine, this time of the past and present! She is a cute and powerful mage in any form, specializing in color-based magic!๐๐
The best way to use Automatons, from personal experience, isn't to merely hide behind whichever one you wind up, but instead to complement them with echoes, Bind, or Swordfighter Form as needed. Also, food, potions, and equipment that increase winding speed were very useful.
Automatons in Echoes of Wisdom seem to be extremely underrated, based on some discussion that I saw online regarding them. Functionally, they're an extra enemy type that you can use a single one of at a time alongside any echoes, featuring stronger effects and decent durability.
It may be due to my playstyle, but it feels like a weapon with longer projectile range, less lag, more mobility, the ability to hit under ledges, and access to a burst bomb for combos at various ranges is inherently better than the counterpart with worse traits.
I've attempted to use both versions of the Decavitator in #Splatoon3. To be honest, I can't think of very many reasons to use this over the Splatana Stamper, which in my opinion is possibly a bit overtuned.
However, I notice that competitive communities often excuse weapons or characters being very noticeably strong if they're "skill-expressive", which feels like a circular argument, while complaining about or banning mechanics that are "skill-less", regardless of actual efficacy.
The Sliggoo brothers! I caught them thanks to the recently concluded mass outbreak event. One is anxious and careful; the other is radiant and timid. #PokemonScarletViolet
I mainly participate in challenges with others when asked, with there being one or two exceptions, but I decided to try the Splat Bomb Rush challenge on my own this time. I managed to get a top 5% challenge power and get a cute badge that I've wanted for quite a while! #Splatoon3
Nairo convinced others to participate in a coverup and his version of events skips over details in Zack's version, yet players apparently have few issues collaborating with him compared to others. Money, popularity, and conformity seem to be all that matters.
I've talked about the Nairo and CaptainZack scandal here in the past. People in communities like this will gladly throw you away for the sake of protecting an important other's career. I must outline all of those I'm aware of who knew and the differing treatment received.
The common trend throughout these is that those who weren't banned either actively acted in Nairo's favor, were at best passive and did nothing, or have kept their identities hidden. The one who actively convinced Zack not to stay silent was punished and suffered greater losses.
