Damn right. I always got the top points for splatting the most (even losing team). Usually I'll just backdoor the enemy team and spam with my curling bomb when there is 30 seconds left on the timer. Most of them we're busy killing like playing CoD xD.
Actually I'd prefer the rollers because its fun bulldozing down everyone but at times will lose out to those ranged weapons and as you said winning rate is like 50%, so meh..
Btw, does anyone have full info on which abilities stacked? I have like 4 same abilities but it wasn't stated on the guides I've checked online.
Bulldozing with roller is fun only if you have Ink Armor ability on, and faster movement ability as well to dodge once the ink storage dries up. The rollers are slow for the amount of damage they do. Splash attack has a very spurious pattern, not concentrated, and jump+splash has a narrow area of attack.
With the curling bomb launchers, I can control how close or how far I want the bombs to go, just by holding R. I can either have far reaching bombs or many bombs at once by rapidly tapping R. Inkblot Art Academy has this high tower in the mid area that is PERFECT for 360 degrees curling bomb launches and more often than not, towards the last 30 seconds of the match, a good team will understand the significance of these areas and defend them so that the person with the most widespread sub-weapon can convert the area ink coverage to their side. The closest match I had was a difference of 0.3% ink coverage, with our team winning at 40.7%.....and that's all thanks to the team effort of defending the team player who has their sub-weapon ready to convert the widest area available. People who are playing this like COD isn't helping the team, they're just helping themselves. But ultimately he's not helping themselves when his team loses because of their shenanigans and get low XP rewards instead.
I need to use "spawn to beacon" more often in the game, but then again, I feel that I waste more time picking spawn points with "X" button than just spawning at the beginning and swimming, it feels faster to me that way. Plus, I get to do housekeeping by splatting areas not fully covered, most often because my other teammates are so eager to spill blood (or ink) instead of covering the areas with their inks (which is what the objective of Turf War anyway).
