How to beat Cohozuna in Splatoon 3
Posted on 6 months ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
A little while ago, we published guides on how to beat both Horrorboros and Megalodontia in Splatoon 3. This time, it’s time to talk about how to beat Cohozuna, the original King Salmonid that’s been present in Splatoon 3 ever since its launch.
Whereas Horrorboros is generally the easiest King Salmonid to defeat right now and Megalodontia is the most difficult, Cohozuna lies somewhere in between. It doesn’t have any particular weak spot, so the fight all comes down to how fast you can defeat other Boss Salmonids and how well you can aim your Golden Egg cannon. If you’re looking for tips and tricks on how to beat Cohozuna, then let’s get right into our guide.

Every stage in Splatoon 3, ranked
Posted on 6 months ago by Ethan in Features, Switch | 0 comments
As Splatoon 3’s content cycle comes to an end, we figured it’d be a good time to take a look at everything the game has to offer with a stages tier list.
At the time of writing, there are currently 23 stages in the game, and Sizzle Season 2024 is confirmed to be adding Lemuria Hub. In terms of quality, Splatoon 3 has had it kind of rough. In Splatoon 2, a good chunk of stages had several different routes to take. On stages like Kelp Dome and Skipper Pavillon, there was plenty of open space to hide away and claim turf. That’s not the case in Splatoon 3, however; for the most part, its stages are smaller and much more constrained, which winds up favoring long-rangers. This, in turn, makes it difficult for casual players to participate without being picked off by chargers and Splatlings. That’s not a very healthy trait for a game to have, and stages that exacerbate this issue will be reflected as such in our ranking.

List of all stages not in Splatoon 3 and which ones we might see in updates
Posted on 6 months ago by Ethan in Features, Switch, Wii U | 0 comments
Though all three Splatoon games are rather similar in terms of graphics and gameplay, the first two entries in the series are home to several exclusive stages that haven’t made it back to Splatoon 3 (at least, not at the time of writing). Among fans of the game, Splatoon 3’s map design is often considered one of its greatest weaknesses – mainly, the stages’ lack of alternate routes to take. Splatoon 1 and 2’s exclusive stages generally have lots of alternate routes, so we aren’t sure what happened. Regardless, today we’re looking at a list of stages not in Splatoon 3 and which ones we might see in updates.

Today, we’re rounding up our full collection of Splatoon guides all in one place. We’ve categorized them into two sections; guides for the base game and guides for Side Order.

Splatoon is easy to learn, but difficult to master, and there are plenty of modes to master. We’ve got guides on the ranked modes, Splatfests, Salmon Run, Big Run, and even their respective King Salmonid bosses. If you’re looking for some Splatoon tips and tricks, you’ve come to the right place.

How to play Tower Control in Splatoon 3
Posted on 7 months ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
Tower Control is one of the tougher ranked modes available in Splatoon 3. Hence its name, the mode is centered around a tower that first appears at the center of the stage. As usual, Tower Control is a lot easier when you have the ability to coordinate with a team of friends over voice chat. Whether you have access to that option or not, we’ve put together a list of tips to help you get better at the game.

Posted on 7 months ago by Ethan in Guides, Switch | 0 comments
Splat Zones is perhaps the most competitive of the ranked modes in Splatoon 3. A decent chunk of top-level tournaments are actually held in this mode, which means you’re a bit more likely to find higher-skilled players practicing it on the ranked ladder. Today, we’ve written up a guide aimed at casual players and beginners explaining the ins and outs of the mode.
