Due to IPL budget cuts, we can't afford to verify players for Low Ink this month. Y'all can decide who gets banned.

To the folks pointing out how other splatoon podcasts already exists, who cares. This isn’t multiple tourneys running over each other, it’s just fun content. Create whatever content you are excited about making, and odds are you’ll find viewers for it. I’ll be one of them.

The year is 20XX. Mankind has perfected counterpick rules after cycling through countless formats that includes input from both teams, fans, and the overlords.

Game 2 is still TC Art Academy.

What single elim events exist right now? Things like sendou finals that lead into a top cut single elim does stream both matches, but weeklies would take too long to add an extra stream match.

Turf War idea. If a team gets in “danger” a timer starts. Once it goes for 30 seconds, the game automatically ends in a KO.

Just so you know, the technical term is “ink” not “paint”. So the next time your team is in vc during overtime of a splat zones game and there is a battle for zone, make sure you scream “INKINKINKINKINK”.

Oh come on. Most of these team names on their own convey zero information. I hardly remember any of these team names and I seeded the damn thing. I’m pretty sure you just made Milkshakin It and Flurry Roll up.

That is not what I said. I know who Ezio is, I don't know what Head Start is.

My argument of Turf War only coming down to the last 30 seconds was wrong. It only comes down to who bothers to paint their spawn.

Me and falco are disbanding our “guess the weapon sound” team on good terms. Looking for a new +1 for future events. Must be mature and know how to make tentabrella noises.

I’m just now seeing this picture, and I love this because you can tell it means something to these players. At the core it’s just a silly squid game, but anyone who has fallen short of a goal can connect with the emotion captured in this shot. It’s the beauty of competition.

Moonlight 🎃✨ @moonlightspl.bsky.social · 26d

With Riptide 2025 come and gone, Moonlight placed 5th/111

Although it was a rough weekend, we'll keep looking forward to the future for Superjump 6 this weekend
