Hearing “Damage Up” reminds me of Chuggaaconroy’s quotes from his Splatoon LP: “I would like to bring special attention to Damage Up” for literally almost every weapon

and then in Splatoon 2 it was replaced with Main Power Up

The decision to bring back one of the most unbalanced abilities in a different form is baffling to this day. I am of the opinion that gear abilities should be minor changes and not impact the game in a major way. Grinding for abilities is not fun and to be at a disadvantage right off the bat because the other team is willing to no-life and get perfect gear abilities is annoying

The worst part is that for the most part, MPU is fine; it's just those few Damage Up MPU weapons that utterly RUIN it. ESPECIALLY BAMBOO.

The devs intentionally killed this game to make us more hyped for Splatoon 3

as nice as mpu is for some weapons, there could have been a bunch of other boosts the damage up ones got lol

honestly if mpu returns in three, but they remove the damage up effect and add more effects such as shot speed up or range for more classes, it would be really fun and add some more depth to the game rather than mpu kpro

Nintendo still have much to learn it seems looking at these pach notes let's hope Splatoon 3 is more balanced.

I had a huge vendetta against the main power-up, I remember being baffled that people can do 1v4s so often! I remember my team losing in TW to a guy with dual squelchers all by himself by simply having a lot more damage!

I was watching this with subtitles and Kensa 52 was replaced with “Cancer 52”and I was like Well no, but actually yes

the 4.0.0 series of updates were happening when the hype for Splatoon 2 starting waning because of Smash Ultimate.

ngl coming back to the splatoon community kinda makes me happy

I really hope that shorter ranged fighting weapons will be more dominant in 3 than just midlines controlling an area ridiculously well and shooters with their insane mobility, paint and special output

I like the fact that k52 in the subtitles is named as "cancer52"

I am convinced that the game devs want bamboozler to be good so they add MPU, only tp realize their mistake far too late

I was always a little sad that I lost interest in 2 right before the Kensa weapons dropped since they looked really cool and as an undercover player I definitely would've enjoyed the kunder kit, but now I'm pretty glad that I dodged the MPU bullet lol. Praying that MPU's current absence in 3 will be permanent.

i remember being excited to mess around with mpu damage bcs i liked stuff like eliter and bamboo in 1 anx then we actually got it and it was actual pain

Hydra is like that tag along with the big boys of ballpoint and explo and got the same punishments despite just being a tag along and not the bullies

WHEN HE SAID KENSA 52 THE SUBTITLES CALLED IT CANCER 52 AND THAT IS THE MOST ACCURATE SUBTITLE ERROR EVER

As someone from Splatoon 3, I was very surprised to see inkbrush and undercover with 150 points for special

The only weapon class I think really deserves mpu are brellas

Ah the release of MPU… the entire reason I dropped this game for a year

They should replace Damage Up and Defense Up with 4 Gear Powers: 1.) Security Ink: This boosts the damage of the ink. The more slots of this, the more damage. Each time you are inked by an enemy not using Security Ink, Stain Blocker, Primer, or Counterfeiter your special meter decreases. 2.) Stain Blocker: This gives the user a reduction to all damage taken, being able to totally ignore the damage boost from Security Ink. 3.) Primer: This gives the user the ability to ignore Stain Blocker reduction and does bonus damage to Stain Blocker that increases with each slot of Primer. 4.) Counterfeiter: This Slot acts like Primer if your target is using Stain Blocker, like Stain Blocker if you are attacked by Security Ink, and Like Security Ink if you target a Primer User or a user that has Primer and Security Ink. This Reduces Swim Speed slightly. Counterfeiter ignores Counterfeiter. This can only be slotted in a Primary Slot. This creates enough craziness that some people might prefer not to slot any of these... But there are still benefits for doing so.

I still feel like MPU should have never included damage up with no counterplay. The buffs aside from damage are trash. The paint buff, range buff, jump rng and inkbrush run buff were all horrible when you compare it to getting more consistent falloff for SOME reason adding DPS to Hydra and allowing KPro, L3, H3 and Bamboo to kill much faster. I fantasize about what Splatoon would be if they buffed options to counter things that are overused. Best example: Instead of nerfing Ballpoint, how about buffing its natural predator: charger, so now more of those exist? Now team comps have back lines in them that aren't CJet! MPU was a horrible idea overall. ThatSRB2DUDE said it best when he said "instead of making me wear gear to get a small buff, just buff the weapon"

Still don't understand why Ballpoint can't have 33.3 but Bamboozler still gets to keep its 99.9.

Who else is kind of nostalgic for all these crazy balance changes?

you cursed us by making this video, now they're gonna show mpu damage up on the splat 3 trailer we are gonna (hopefully) get

The MPU MMMM I think if they DO add it to splat 3 they should use it as a main-only ability for hats. Hat abilities I've noticed give you extra subs or upgrades conditionally, so if nintendo sees damage up/main power up as a REQUIREMENT then it should activate for ten seconds after a kill (timer RESETS, does not extend), the equivalent of two mains of mpu. Doesn't take up too much gear space, forces normal kills, and I think should be non damage up for each weapon, eg dualies get an extra roll temporarily, aerosprays get more painting, chargers get range/charge speed (e liter), blasters have better ink efficiency, etc.

To this day mpu lives strong. Thanks for the video I will be waiting for part 2.

Man im sad i missed all the cool metas, i started playing on 4.8 or 4.9 :(

I searched for "flowey endboss undertale" and this came up

Welcome home, Ballpoint.

The biggest mistake they have made in those balance updates imo is making some weapons getting a ton of damage up with mpu ability. Such as splattershot pro for example. That one already has crazy damage. And instead of nintendo making mpu for that weapon to increase fire aim while jumping, nooooo let's make it damage up for that weapon (seriously to this day that choice still doesn't make any sense). I hope mpu wont cause damage up for weapons in Splatoon 3 anymore. Or else we get the same ridiculous situations of Splatoon 2 again

Yoooo chara, quick question: at 1:47, you can see the enemy inkling get special. It's shown by that HUGE shine shortly before you splat them. This shine got removed at some point, do you know when they did that? Maybe it didn't get removed, but it seems to be much weaker now at least.

How to ruin any splatoon game: damage up.

Baffling that not only did they give damage up to several main weapons, but also didn’t change their MPU effect after it was obvious that it was a mistake. Definitely the worst patch in the game’s history

They misspelt kensa in kensa mini splatling. They spelt it kensaa. I don't know why I'm saying this but I am.

Do you think they would make things OP when they come out just so people will play them for a while and then just nerf them?

Ah yes let's introduce an ability that just gives you more damage. Mmmm yes good idea.

Man I remember screwing over people with 2 shot splattershot pro. I have been binging these meta videos and I'm getting super nostalgic about this game. I hope splat 3 will give us great times as well.

Remember when the Tri-Slosher was broken af?

I wish MPU made it into 3 just being more like SPU where it just increases specific stats of the weapon like a slightly faster charge for splatling, chargers and brellas. better accuracy (including jump rng) and fire speed for shooters and blasters. Higher acceleration and top speed for rollers and brushes. finally more range for sloshers. And on top of that it should have been restricted to being a main ability only.

4:53 LMAOOO THE CC

I like main power up to increase range, make it easier to paint, or to go faster (which is brush only lol) and the other little abilities for the other main weapon…. But damage up is stupid :S (sometimes) Someone running all main power up on a weapon that gets more damage is stupid. But someone like me who only runs 1 gear with pure main power, or just half is fine and good enough to give that extra little punch in damage. I kinda want them to ditch damage up for Main power up in Splatoon 3, bring back the normal damage up ability… but make it a gear exclusive (so no chunks for sub slots) or make it so you can only equip up to 1 main and 3 subs of the ability

can we talk about how a splattershot jr got 160p for special in 4.5? why would you ever do that

Today's direct is gonna change the meta (or the entire game lol).
