Splatoon 3: Nearly toppling the Triumvirate in Salmon Run [68-36-48-xf, 38/1574]
All-random weapons comes outside of a weekend, and I'm here for it! Even if I'm not quite ready. I get the Grizzco Slosher to start with, the best weapon, but perhaps to be underutilised for Goldie Seeking. It's still pretty good, if not as useful as a Roller. And our Roller knows what they are doing, which is good and lets us harvest plenty of eggs, even if the seeking part of the wave is less efficient than I'd like.
Down to low tide for the second wave, with another Grizzco weapon. I have the Stringer this time, which is really good, if you know what you're doing. I'm not allowed to show off splatting a Stinger in one hit, but never mind, I get a Fish Finger and some Flippers to splat quickly. Another Stinger appears too, if a bit out of range for a one-hit splat, and I encounter the main drawback of the Stringer, it being really ink-hungry. I recover, but have to run away from a Steel Eel. That gives me a chance to get the angles right on a Steelhead, though, even if heading back to the basket has my floundering. I am not surprised at getting splatted, but a little surprised at what splatted me. Overall, a decent wave.
The tide comes right in for the final wave, and I have a little Sploosh-o-matic, which I'm quite happy with. I can shoot and shoot and keep shooting for ages, and as long as I get close to the salmonids I can splat them quickly. This is not a bother most of the time, but I do need the help of a ledge to splat the Steelhead. Splatting the Flipper is made more tricky by the Fish Finger above not yet being splatted, which takes me too long to work out. I want to go up the Finger, but a Cohock convinces me I'm not going anywhere, so I use a B-bomb to keep me safe. It also splats a Flyfish. An Inkstrike helps splat a Stinger and the Fish Finger, mostly clearing the area, which makes it time for last-second egg dunking, which we achieve pretty well.
But it's not over. Here comes the Triumvirate, and at high tide. I think that helps more than hinders. I get the Grizzco Roller, which is normally a lot of fun but feels out of place during the King fight. I do what I can, which starts well, splatting a Lid and Drizzler combined, but then I'm just running around, and getting bounced by my own bad rolling in to the water. I'm revived and find myself near two Steelheads that require too much good timing than the situation allows, so I use a B-bomb to turn them in to golden eggs. I fire those eggs, zoom across the other side of the Station, create more eggs with my second extra B-bomb, and launch those successfully in to Joe's red spot. With seconds to go, Joe bites Boros to splat them, and a few last hits splats Zuna moments later. Can we splat Joe too? Maybe with a bit more time we could have. But that was pretty close. Woomy!
