my brain just ain't built for MOBAs I guess

Any posts about comp Sploon or interactions with comp Sploon posts will be from this account instead of my main account moving forward. I'll still be using the original outside of that.

There's a lot more I could mention but I don't want to take more than a single post per class and the word limit's pretty...limiting. I'm also lazy and don't want to rework a bunch of what I typed out already.

If you're a slayer player I'd recommend Scout if you want to go fast and hit hard in a fight and have plenty to do in downtime (just remember your flare gun exists) and Driller with some combo or dps builds. Gunner can feel pretty stationary and Engi has a lot to keep track of and constantly set up.

Kinda lost the comparisons around Engi and Driller but their weapons are hard to compare to splatoon weapons. Engi's guns are pretty basic for the most part ('cept for the LOK-1) and Driller's primary weapons...I got no ideas for comparison. Driller could also fit support if you go for a cc build.

Driller - Support/Slayer
Two primary weapons do damage over time while the Cryo Cannon's freezing fits support a bit more. Can either provide great crowd control or burst dps depending on what weapon mods you use. Sort of a jack of all trades imo just depends on what you want from his kit.

Engi - Supp/Skirm
Turrets for holding ground and providing support fire, weaker primary options better for self defense or when used in conjunction with your turrets, and bursts of swarm clear with his secondaries fits support well. Also his platform gun is one of the most useful tools in the game.

Gunner - Anchor
Very slow all things considered. All of his primary weapons resemble splatlings but his bubble shield gives teammates breathing room and can also make revives much easier. He's the team's insurance and can save a pretty dire situation while mowing down most bugs in front of him.

For each class I'd say (in my opinion):

Scout - Slayer
Fast mobility and high single target damage but can lack in swarm clear (swarmers can be your worst nightmare). Sorta like new squiffer when using zipcaster. He's best at taking care of priority targets like septic spreaders and wardens.
