Y'all, I think I just discovered autobuild way earlier than I should've. Likes really earlier. As in I haven't unlocked any more parts of the map than the Central Hyrule bloc in the new village and one of the lightroot thingies. As in I haven't even done enough shrines to get any more stamina or more than 4 hearts. I don't even have any clothes other than the tunics and warm pants from the bit floaty island.

I look it up and this autobuild is only a thing you can find in one tiny place in the entire map? Anyone else find autobuild super early (I think), or is this just a me thing?

OH SHIT KOHGA IS HERE I AM NOTREADY FOR SONETHINGLIKETHIS

SPLATOON Predictions!!

New weapon predictions!!

I am not qualified!!

Chill season got 3 new weapons: Nova, Big Swig, and Snipewriter.

The common thread? All of them were an ungodly hybrid of each weapon classes' (Shooters, Rollers, Chargers) lightweight/shortest-range and heavyweight/longest-range weapon. See evidence. Children and their parents.

Splattershot Nova

  • Same damage as Aerospray (5 hits to Splat), coupled with its high rate of fire and a noticeable spread (not very accurate)
  • Jet Squelcher tones down some of the aerospray features and gives it a good long range

Big Swig Roller

  • Carbon Roller's rapid swing, fast run and low damage
  • Dynamo-like ink coverage in wide roll and swing

Snipewriter 5-H

  • Bamboozler is a two hit charger with rapid fire
  • E-liter's massive charge time and long range

I imagine some (but probably not all) new weapons this fresh season (2023) will follow the same philosophy.

:O

Here's me spitballing some possible candidates:

Sloshers Bloblobber and Tri-slosher

This slosher will have three paths of blobs. Each path will have fewer blobs (less than 4) and be a shorter range than Bloblobber.

Splatlings Hydra and Mini-Splatling

This splatling will have a long charge time, but will have a medium range and a very high mobility as it fires. Like it will run at you as it fires type speed. It does not store charge. It probably wouldn't be able to recharge halfway-through unloading like Nautilus or Ballpoint do.

Blasters Rapid Blaster Pro and Clash Blaster

It has the rapid fire from Clash with a range from Rapid-Pro. Both aspects will probably be less than the parents. Damage may be reduced some, with at least a 4-indirect splat, if not 5. No one is happy with this weapon.

It's not out of the question, but a lot of the other weapon classes just don't have enough variety to make a hybrid of the heavyweight and lightweight; they just need more weapons in those classes to begin with. I don't think I could make a feasible prediction for those classes using this weapon design philosophy from the Chill Season.

I also think my hypotheticals above hold merit because the Chill Season update's weapons were the original classes in Splatoon 1. Fresh Season may follow chronologically with the Splatlings, Sloshers, or Blasters, since those arrived with Splatoon 1 updates. That being said, I doubt that the new weapons this season will all be from those classes, probably just one or two.

I'm deadass curious to what other people think the new weapons could be? Tell me?? In the comments??? Please????
