Splatoon 3 - After Alterna [Deathless]
Ойындар
SPOILERS FOR STORY MODE
After Alterna is a bonus stage you unlock after beating the story mode. It's an insanely long obstacle course that ends in arguably the toughest fight in story mode.
The story mode was so much fun, so especially after beating it I wanted to try some deathless attemps and somehow ended up getting it on my first try. Especially the end could've easily gone bad and you can definitely do this a lot smoother. But yeah pretty happy still I got it early.
My sensitivity is 0 (motion), 0 (sticks)

I struggled the most on the 1st and 3rd sections. The 2nd and 4th sections I was able to beat in just 2 tries each. For the 4th section, I used Lil’Buddy to distract the AI whenever I was about to die. While they were distracted, I would hide in my ink and regenerate my health. It was somewhat straightforward once I figured that out. Maybe a strat to try yourself if you’re still struggling with this particular section?
They should've put a checkpoint after every wave of the Octoling fight, because that segment in and of itself is a boss fight.

Honestly the octoling section is way worst than the balloon Nintendo, “gee I love having 6V1 battles and they all gang up on you and it had three horrible phases, it’s like trying to win against 4 human player matches when you’re the only one left!” Honesty it’s just sheer luck most of the time if you win where the balloons you’ll eventually get the pattern down (And to rub salt in the wound it costs lots of eggs to start again) champions road is much more tolerable and after alterna has checkpoints where champions road does not, but I would still rather do champions road)

Watching you do this level without a fully upgraded Smallfry is impressive. At max level, he defeats enemies and extends soak blocks almost immediately. I relies on him so much to get though the soak blocks and flying section, but you tackled like a boss without upgrading him!
@penguinflames707
Жыл бұрын
I did, it’s not the worst. Soak bocks isn’t the worst without, and for final battle, I used him as a distraction, as for final wave in that battle, used tenta missiles after 3 enemies died, cleared out the bullshit tenta missile enemies. Ink vacuum afterwards helped me live too Worst part of the fight is easily tenta missiles, as well as if armor breaks you are so slow, you are a sitting duck

It's not just you, Nintendo definitely made it harder.
I looked this up cause I got frustrated with the first section and wanted to look up how long it even was. My initial reaction: - "There's SECTIONS??? I'M ONLY ON THE FIRST ONE?" - "Oh I'm basically at the end of the first section before the check point. I guess that's a relief... 🙄" - "God first Inner agent 3 and now this making me look like I didn't sink thousands of hours into this franchise as a whole." If I ever make it through I'll update this. It was mesmerizing watching you fly through this level. ty for uploading :) *edit:* man y'all weren't lying about those balloons... but I did it! finally! 😩👌🏾
Little tip for the part where you have to latch onto a block that keeps moving without falling, hold a squid surge to not fall, made that part way easier. Someone probably commented this already, but just wanted to say it incase nobody has
This level’s first section wasn’t so bad once I got it all figured out, but the second section was the worst. Especially the upwards spiral. I ended up twisting my arms too far trying to aim for the balloons, which was painful. The drop at the end I passed on the first try though. The last two sections were pretty easy and I only lost two lives on each of those. But the second section... Ugh.
My tip for the octoling battle is don't try to take them all at once it's easier to go one by one AND just keep moving. If the mass is coming to your safe area just abandon the place and just get one octoling at a time. Of course everyone has their own method. Just find what's easier for you guys

YUOR MESSHIAH
It took me almost 3 Hours to beat I wish I played like you 😭
This level was a pain in the ass for me. The 1st part is okay(only died once) but the 2nd part where you have to shoot the ballons it took me 2 hours ! I really suck that those kind of levels. Then finally got to the 3rd part and again only died once here. Then here comes final part with the Octolings omg. First and second waves are okay but last wave is horrible. Like you can die in mere seconds just because you have like 4 Octolings using their ults at the same time. You have to avoid waves while avoid missiles while avoid shots from a jetpack. After being stuck 3 hours on this part I gave up. I was too tired to go on. Tried every possible strategies but none of them came close to make this easier. It's always the same: at some point I'm getting destroyed by 3 ults at the same time. I tried again the next day, only for my game to crash at the Octoling part. Never doing this again.
I've been stuck on this for over an hour. I can't get past the target part :(
This might be stupid, but im struggling on the Rail part in the 1st section, maybe i didnt have enough momentum. Can anybody help me with this hell?
This level was agony bro

I didn’t realize how long this one was. Holy shit.

I haven't played splatoon ever before still took me like 30 min overall to beat the stage with a 16 min time (mostly spend on inking the fast moving platforms at the end of the first section)
this is like if you took darker side from mario odyssey, put it into a splatoon blender, and than threw that one horrible target level from the campaign into the mix just because it would be funny, and than blended it ever more. inner agent 3 is NOTHING compared to THIS.
