Thanks for the tips im going to stay at professional +3 so it doesn't feel like a level of octo expansion every game

What I am getting worried about Big Run with is that as time goes on, fewer and fewer casual players will be playing meaning higher egg counts, even outlier amounts, will be weighted more and more heavily in the final tally thus making it immensely more difficult for others to reach the top 5% or even top 20%.

Excellent advice as always, I wish everyone luck on getting the score YOU want for yourself. It's true that I'm not crazy on competition, but I think it's important to take a look back about why big run is so exciting anyways. I don't speak for others, but come on! We're not excited because of a locker decoration, we're excited for playing salmon run on a specially reworked pvp map! What I really mean is, remember to enjoy this event for what it is, not let the bonus prize distract you TOO much from that :)

I know this sounds kind of unrelated to salmon run- but it really helped me. Learning chargers is really helpful for getting better at salmon run. It can improve your aim and reaction speed, and ability to move the camera quickly. Especially helps when you get a charger and you are able to actually use it decently to help your team

I did the calculation during the first big run and lowered myself to Prof+3 for the event. It's good for teams in vc as Hazmy said, but if you're playing solo queue, from what I've observed it looks like EVP 300 seems to be somewhere nearer to optimal

Great vid as always! I'm really excited for the Big run to start, is my favorite event/mode in all the game and this video hyped my excitement even more.
Also I think another important detail that at least I consider is important to mention during big run or any random rotation is how well you can adapt to different scenarios. You can't just expect to play a random rotation and only get weapons your used to use and complain when you get a weapon you're not good at and lose because of that, that's not a reality. You should be able to adapt to any weapon given and try the best you can. Another thing I usually do is see what weapons we're given and see what the team needs, for example if you're teammates get all slow, heavy high dps weapons and you're the only one with a good inking and high mobility weapon, you should be inking for them so they have it easier time to take down more bosses faster. I know this should be common knowledge for most of the people and could see as a dumb comment but in my way to 999 vp last 2 big runs, I found myself in low VP freelance with a lot of things like people trying to kill a stinger with a charger, rollers not protecting the whole team of smallfrys during grillers or weapons good at clearing lessers ignoring them

Congrats on 50k subscribers. I love your videos.

Lesser Salmonids become a dominant threat on high hazard levels, and Chum and Smallfries are so much more dangerous here than in Splatoon 2!

That tip with the Snatchers is actually gold as i rather letting them live now when they come out of the water and it really works! Thank you so much!

Dang I’m pretty early

Also I’m super excited for this Big Run with all of the special features it has this time around, AND I’ll finally be able to play it fully in peace since I usually would have to go on a trip out of town or something half way through the big run like the last 2 lol

Going to try with randoms again. I have a few friends that I can play with but we've only reach to 70s or 80s, while on my own 100s. 😭 Once I get at my goal I'll play for fun and grind for scales

[baldthecodest]

I managed to score 150 eggs on friday playing with randoms, got a very awesome team and I managed to get a great score, these tips were very helpful as well, this will be my first 5% w and I couldn't be happier! Really great stuff man!

[LuigiStrikeForceChaz]

I've been playing for hours, enough to fight 12 kings, and I still haven't found a mothership mission

[hellboros]

U know one tip i would give people is how u collect eggs. Like most people just sit at a place and wait for inktank refill to throw the next egg while they could also just swim it to the basket depending on how far u are away. Like haz did it wrong by just squidrolling imo if u optimize it. SR highscore are kinda rng tho bc u need luck with boss spawns thats why i would recommend higher hazard lvls. Like i havealways resetted to evp 200ish last big run but got my highscore by just casually being at 600ish due to getting more experienced players to play with in freelance. Tried the pool too but that was just tilting bc people didnt care about luring, etc. Like i agree on most what haz says but u have to adapt to freelance by grinding higher to sort out the bad players.

There was a shift where my team got 55 eggs in the first wave and 44 in the 2nd. But we fumbled during low tide on the 3rd (22/30 eggs).

121 eggs total, but I'm sure we could've gotten past 140...

Since watching your channel I loved when I saw you and your team use snatchers to your guys advantage. I have been trying to do it as well, but it still looks like its one of those things that have not caught on yet. Maybe in due time I hope? Also love your videos over salmon run~! <3

[Andrew_and_Amelia]

😅 I've never gotten above Profreshional +2, I didn't even know the titles changed.

The Snatcher point was good, though! I never noticed they always come from the same direction, nor that they went straight back, so that's gonna be a big help for me! Thanks for this vid!

[hikaru]

I'd love to play this with my friends but they don't have splatoon 3 :(

Edit: I thought the snatchers on junction were as useful as Marooner snatchers. Also you forgot this very Important tip! Have fun during Big Run!

On a more serious note if you find yourself getting stressed and angry at a bunch of randoms. Take a 5 minute break, have a cup of tea and sit out side for a bit or something and just relax a little.

[roy]

Definitely gonna play longer due to the bonuses looking foward to it imma aim for at least a silver

[mr.rad-guy]

So far I got to Eggclusive VP 200 with 123 eggs, I just wish the game didn't keep turning into Smash Bros Brawl online with how many enemies on on the map at once
