That wouldn’t work mostly cause of player expression, most matches only have 2 3 or 4 people in them so you’d basically only see orange, blue, green or yellow which means the other colours would almost never be seen at all and for a series based around fashion and expression it’d be frankly a terrible idea to lock away all half the colours like that, additionally that’d make the cpu colour gray, which would just look wrong. And the team colours overwrite the colour of the player so it’d result in having 2 orange inklings which is exactly what we’re trying to avoid. But hey who am I to criticise, ain’t like I got any better ideas for it lol
@thebluePumpking 16 днів тому
Super easy to solve: Give the Octoling the same 8 colors, just darker and if someone picks yellow Inkling, dark yellow Octoling is not available for that match or you pick dark pink Octoling first and pink Inkling is blocked To keep it short, the same color can't be picked by Inkling and Octoling

@henrydikeman2692 2 дні тому
@@chair_2.0 There are so many scenarios where being able to tell sephiroths (or other characters with similar color palettes is important) apart are important. Here's five off the top of my head. 1. Knowing the immediate percentage of which Sephiroth you are targeting so you know what target 2. Knowing which Sephiroth is ahead so you know the priority target. 3. Knowing which Sephiroth picked up the Dragoon/ultimate weapon piece. 4. Knowing which Sephiroth is close to a final Smash 5. Knowing which Sephiroth is on your team. I get that alot of these can be fixed by turning on outlines. It still adds more complexity which is just another thing to think about. Besides currently the only way there's ink on the ground is by using Roller. Surely its easy just to remember if you used roller recently. If they do change it so that Ink is left on the ground from all weapons, the similar ink colors will be the least of our worries.
@eragon78 День тому
@@chair_2.0 You can play in an arena with 4 inklings all being the same color no problem. The game doesn't prevent that. Hell, it happens in random match making on elite smash all the time where two inklings match up vs each other with the same alt. And its just not a problem. You already know which ink is yours and which isnt if you're paying attention. Its like two snake players fighting and remembering which C4 is yours. And thats all that matters. Your ink vs not your ink. Even if you are in an arena with 4 inklings all the same color, the other 3 are all identical to you, it doesnt matter who's ink is who's to you. It only matters which ink is yours, which you should just remember. Again, just like how in a battle of 4 snakes, the snakes just remember which C4 is theirs. Its really no different. And if you arent playing inkling at all, then it really doesnt matter in the slightest, since all the ink is mechanically the same to you regardless of who it came from.
@crazfamily6931 16 днів тому
2 suggestions on how to make octolings work. 1. Octolings can use splatfest varient colors that are often used (with some exceptions due to reasons) this allows certain new colors being allowed and also gives some cool references. 2. Instead of being a normal echo fighter, it serves as an AMAZING opportunity to reference splatoon 2 and 3 while keeping inkling with the splatoon 1 moveset. That way we have representatives for all the splatoon games and it could lead to some interesting differences
@TotallyNotTheQueen 16 днів тому

when you are designing a game though you are trying to account for these weird edgecases. Even if it's not that bad to play or something few people will ever do it's the type of thing a developer would try to avoid. and that sounds like a solution, but restricting the colors like that for only these two character just doesnt look good. thats like not being able to play as green mario when luigi is in battle. It's technically fine but it's a small thing that reflects poorly on a game. At the very least I cant imagine a dev being happy with that as a solution.

1. Reddish pink (Agent 8) 2. Blurple (Splatoon 3 default/Shiver) 3. Light pink (Pearl/Side Order) 4. Light turquoise green (Marina/Side Order) 5. Metallic gold (Chaos) 6. Metallic silver (Order) 7. Multicolored? (Dedfish) 8. Brown (Milk Chocolate) 9. Dark green (many Splatfests) 10. Red (many Splatfests) 11. Muted salmon (Side Order) 12. Tan (White Chocolate) 13. Black/dark gray (Splatoween) 14. Dark orange (Salmon Run) 15. Dark teal (it exists) 16. Periwinkle/very light blue (it exists) I could go on but Smash only needs eight. I think we're fine. If you're worried about Inkling getting all the iconic colors and Octoling getting all the rare ones (which actually fits in my opinion), then you can just give swap out a couple of Inkling's current alts for these.

as a long time splatoon fan, I think the octolings can work as an echo fighter. maybe they can have the same colours of the inklings, but if two people choose the same ink colour, the second players ink colour will change but still being able to play as that costume. for example, player 1 chooses the normal orange inkling but player two wants to play as an orange octoling, player 2’s octoling’s ink colour will be changed to blue, but will have the same outfit.

@YosherYoshi 16 днів тому
While I didn't take the lack of available distinct colors into consideration, I highly doubt this is going to stop them from really implementing Octolings into Smash. They've made Wii Fit Trainer, ROB, Mr Game & Watch, and Duck Hunt into fully realized playable characters. You KNOW they will find a way to get around the color issue for the Octolings. Even so, I don't think they would really care that much anyway. The colors are just a thing you temporarily see on opponents or the ground when using ink, or see it on their hair/tentacles. Meanwhile there are several characters with costumes/alternate skins that are really, REALLY similar to each other and are also hard to tell apart on bigger stages. I highly, HIGHLY doubt they will care that much about ink color that will only be on screen for specific periods of time anyway, and they can still for the most part pick more distinct colors anyway. Not to mention item stuff from other characters. Who's King K Rool crown is that? Who does that specific Luma belong to? Who's C4 is that? Never mind, where even IS that C4 again? You know, stuff like that. Octolings are still a shoe in. This video didn't change my mind in the slightest. The colors just do not matter nearly as much as you make it sound like.

Tbh I'm not sure I agree with the core premise of the video. In 8 player Great Cave Offensive type matches no one's gonna be paying attention to the colour of ink on the ground anyways. In 1v1s, on the offchance both players are using the same colour to begin with, it won't be that hard to keep track of. The only situation in which I could see it being an issue is _maybe_ doubles, but then it'd be easy enough to just gentleman to using different skins, rock-paper-scissors for the one you want maybe. Seems like a total non-issue to me

While overlapping colors would be inevitable if Octoling got in, I don't think the different ink colors actually set each Inkling apart, so it probably wouldn't be a problem at all. They just take more damage in general from anything regardless of their ink color (so Mario attacking, orange Inkling, and Blue Inkling will all have the same multiplier against full orange ink). Keep in mind this isn't Octoling propaganda or anything; I know nothing about Splatoon and didn't even know Octoling was expected. Additionally, here's something I found from Smashwiki about how different inks interact: "The color of ink is entirely cosmetic, aside from potentially making the coverage amount harder to estimate. Only one color of ink will be shown at a time, with the color changing once the new color's amount of ink surpasses the old one's. The effects of different colored inks do not stack"

So if I'm understanding correctly, the problem is splat roller's ink trail becoming confusing if theres 16 different characters with it. So why not give Octoling a different Side Special?

Videl in DBFZ was handled similarly to your model swap idea. By default her design is based on her short hair from the tournament which is her more prevalent design, but Arcsys knew that her pigtails design from the early Boo arc was _incredibly_ popular, so by holding down a trigger and selecting her on the CSS you can play as an alternate model with long hair. For Smash you could just press Y like you do with Pokémon Trainer to switch to an Octoling, which I think would work really well. Knowing Nintendo though, I'm not sure they'd commit to eight extra models when Ultimate was so intent on everyone sharing the same amount of costumes.

So regardless, I don't think there's a much of a problem to work around.
@LiamWins 10 днів тому
Nice video, but I don't think this is as big of an issue as you're saying. Inkling in smash is entirely and exclusively based on the original Splatoon, as its main weapons, gear, voices, stage, special weapon, hairstyles (or lack thereof), and ink colours are all from the first game, with the only exception being some music tracks being either from or remixes of Splatoon 2 songs. As Octolings first became playable in Splatoon 2's Octo Expansion, I think they could just give Octoling the ink colours from Splatoon 2, which are different enough. I think this would also work nicely in having them represent Splatoon 2 in everything else, such as having its weapons, gear, stage, hairstyles, and special weapon.
@faithmatthews4635 4 дні тому
Making the Octolings' moveset themed to Octo Expansion and Side Order would be a pretty cool idea. They could take advantage of a colour chip gimmick, where you collect Colour Chips to become stronger, kind of like in Side Order's final boss, and they could use different types of various weapons (so not the regular Splattershot, but the Splattershot Pro for instance) for their basic attacks, like how Octo Expansion gave you a choice of weapon at the Turnstyle before each Station. We even have an easy Final Smash: The Princess Cannon or Colour Wail. I know they're technically both used by Pearl, but the Octoling could summon them themselves. ^^
@fazdude3118 16 днів тому
I think the main issue regarding Inkling/Octoling sharing alts boils down to the ink applied to other fighters and the ink left behind with Side Special - The cosmetic ink fired by other attacks is a non-issue compared to these, but I've come up with solutions for those two big problems should Octoling be entirely seperate from Inkling: - For the ink left by Side Special, just have a squid/octo icon appear over the ink with the corresponding color, making it clear whose ink is whose. - As for the ink residue left on opponents via Ink/Octoling's attacks, this would require a teeny bit of reworking. Inked opponents now have a squid/octo icon (just like Side B) above them representing which Ink/Octoling has inked them the most and deals extra damage to them. Of course, you can override one Ink/Octoling's "capture" of another fighter by inking them yourself, which could result in a mini Turf War, which i think is very fitting. There might be some more nuance to this, but I think this is the optimal way to let Inkling and Octoling be seperate fighters. That said, I do like the idea of Octoling being a seperate library of alts for Inkling where two players can't have the same ink color. Inkless Octoling would kinda suck, though.

tbh I think there is a solution here, namely if the Smash team decides to make Octoling more unique. In the Side Order DLC for 3, the main collectables for Agent 8 are the pallets, different colour chips. So, what if they basically give Octoling Monado Arts but with the pallets, and make the colour selection only colours that haven't been used on Inkling yet. Probably not a perfect solution but I think it could be neat

@bloxyjola6040 9 днів тому
Octolings can work as echo fighters and I firmly believe that. Just make ink colors randomized like they are in splatoon, alt outfits for inklings and octolings just being the outfit itself and not the ink color. so if you have any combination of 8 inklings/octolings on the stage, they'll all still be different colors.
@Gatekid3 23 години тому
three other solutions that might work. -octolings have textured/duelcolor ink like the tar/ sanitized octolings, the fuzzy ooze, the gold and silver Order vs Chaos, big mans ink orders black ink and fill the rest with fake ones representing the idols. multicolored ink can set it apart from inkling while also referencing story mode. - octolings shoot ink, but dont leave a trail. you can still cover the opponent, but not the stage. the colors wouldnt matter because ink on a character just means they take more damage from everything _their ink trail is shaped different. maybe they have use more precise weapons to leave a thinner ink trial and use the brush instead of the roller. might still be confusing at a distance though. - completely new character. mostly melee focused. using splatanas, rollers,duelies and bows to deal damage that doesnt leave behind ink, or any ink left is just an effect that quickly evaporates and has no function.

@momsaccount4033 15 днів тому
Personally, I am against the idea of Octolings being an echo fighter. There is a lot of potential for showcasing different aspects of Splatoon that Inkling doesn’t represent. Copying and pasting Inkling’s moveset and portrayed personality onto the Octoling should not happen. Making them an echo fighter is the worst kind of low-hanging fruit you can go for here. Besides pulling from different weapons in the series that’d fit the character’s personality better (Splat Charger (most likely the E-Liter variant), Octo Brush, Dualies and Brellas to have them be a Splatoon 2 representative specifically, there is a lot you could do here). Since Inkling goes for a hit and run playstyle that showcases a sort of fun and rambunctious personality, I’d want Octoling to assume a slow, more methodical playstyle that could focus on setting up traps (Inkmines do exist) with more slower attacks that pack a bigger punch. This would make Octoling the antithesis to Inkling’s playstyle. I feel like I have to say this because lots of people misunderstand Splatoon’s story, Inklings and Octolings are inherently different. I don’t know where you got your “Inklings and Octolings aren’t different are the whole point” interpretation of the story. It’s clearly shown that Inkling society is a lot less serious and that Inklings prefer light-hearted fun whereas Octolings are more smart and practical. The point of the story is that differences aren’t supposed to fuel a petty divide. Splatoon 2 Octo Expansion is probably one of Nintendo’s best works when it comes to themes and building on lore, mainly because OE was the start of the series’ potential being realized since up until that point the Hero Mode plots have been pretty bare bones. It looked like the team really wanted to expand on the pre-established themes of the world in a unique and interesting way. I am baffled that the dev team decided to follow up that masterclass with the incredibly mid stories that were Return of the Mammalians and Side Order. Both of these stories ruin most of the character progression most of the main cast went through in past games and did nothing to expand on them meaningfully. With Splatoon 3 RotM being the supposed end of the “Squidbeak Splatoon story”, the way they decided to end it is super underwhelming. Despite me being one of the biggest fans of the Splatoon franchise, a part of me doesn’t want to see Octolings in a theoretical Smash 6, not because I don’t like the idea but because I don’t trust that Octolings will be done justice. I highly doubt there will ever be a wholly new Smash game anyways. The best they could do is make an enhanced version of Ultimate to be ported to a next gen console with some new DLC. Sakurai should get a break, and the Smash franchise should not stretch for longer than it needs to. Nintendo squeezing Kirby games out of Sakurai was the entire reason why he left to start his own company. Capitalism is a joke and Japanese work culture is a crime. That’s all from me. I feel like somebody has to say this, even though I know all of this may come across as a hot take. I’ll be straight to the point, I don’t think there are any genuine intelligent discussions happening in the Splatoon or Smash community. I’ve stuck with these two fandoms for too long before I realized there were better things I could do with my life.

Except the Octolings you play as are the ones that left Octarian society to join Inkling society, and if their differences aren't enough to make them play differently in Splatoon, why would they be in Smash?

the issue with the no-ink idea is that Inkling is the gimmick is VERY noticable. Lucina and Marth are not noticably different from each other, especially not to casuals, and having a clear indicator where their sweet spot is, is not nearly as important as the Ink. ANYONE would notice their Ink gimmick gone; they literally got an input only they have (and I think Steve) to work around it. On top of that, their gameplay is built around the ink idea; taking it away might mean needing to change moves entirely cause they're balanced around ink, and just buffing damage values could make them super plain or broken or underpowered. It be a huge risk Three options I thought of 1. Just give them a different gimmick and build them from the ground-up. If you're going to suggest making them an echo without the ink gimmick, then they can just make the Octoling have a separate moveset with or without a gimmick. (Also any other character can just be given a unique moveset too despite being inkling/octoling; theres no reason Shiver or Frye would need to play identical to an inkling) 2. Theres some other visual effect put onto the ink to differentiate them. Bubbles, smoke, haze, or even something like stripes or spots. It wouldnt reflect the game obviously but a good effect could be plenty to differentiate similar looking colours. 3. Lock the ink's colour to player colour rather than the character colour. This would cause the issue of the hair colour not matching the ink, but it would let you have the Octoling and Inkling together with no issue whatsoever

My solution was to use the Chaos and Order colors as alternate skins for the Inklings to save more colors for the Octolings. And you wouldn’t need too many colors anyway, thanks to Tartar’s monstrosity. Sanitized Octolings are a PERFECT alternate skin, and you could even make two if you’re willing to break canon a bit and make this slimier ink different colors. The female skin would have greener ink, and the male skin would have bluer ink, so there won’t even be any confusion there.

I know that you're already Player X but I really like using that Inkling costume." whether in tournament or at a casual hangout. If there's not an option to select Player Slot on a button next to your Controls Set Name then it would be cumbersome for everyone from Louisiana's #18 Inkling to Little Timmy wanting to play Smashy Bros. at his cousin's house. And if they didn't link Player Slot with Costume then the Ink Color wouldn't match the Inkling Color. Or, you're basically asking for all 8 of Inkling's(AND Octoling's) Costumes to have 8 different Colors which is unfair to every other character unless the developers want to create 64 colors for each character.

Because there's so much of Splatoon that has yet to be represented in Smash because of Inkling's Splatoon 1 limitation. Plus the Splatoon series in general is too big for it not to get a 2nd distinct fighter, & Smash is known to have a bias towards successful new EPD franchises.

@@Neoxon619 ok but you’ve gotta remember that for franchisees that have gotten more then one fighter, their subsequent games have had drastically different styles and/or gameplay that they can use to pull new movesets. Think Fire Emblem or Mario. Or they used a completely different (yet equally as iconic) character form said franchise. Think FF7. Splatoon doesn’t have that luxury. Despite how wonderfully diverse it is (and having 3 games now), it has only one main gameplay formula because of the nature the game is built on. So it would be kinda redundant to make more than one fighter. And despite Octoling’s “technically” being a different and equally as iconic character, they are (again) just a pallet swap (outside of the lore).

This would be the best solution, make the player select appear colorless only differentiated by outfit, and then be assigned a random color in a match just like the games

This feels like the most bad faith argument you've ever had.

The good thing is that Splatoon already gave us the answer with Side Order. Give Octolings the special patterned ink that we saw on Side Order. A cool reference to Side Order since it is an Octoling exlusive gameplay mode. I will say that Octolings as an Echo player is in itself a bad option, the best option woukd be to give them the new weapons that have been added to Splatoon Dualings, Splatbrella, Splatana and Stringer representing how Splatoon has evolved.

I still think having octolings just take half the costume slots makes more sense. Also, I do think that bandana waddle dee is more likely that waluigi to come into smash, and I'm suprized he wasn't mentioned more. The poor guy has been working hard in his series, enough to be considered as a part of the main group, and yet he hasn't been added, and I think he is likely to. He is part of the main 4 from KRTD, and I feel like most people would agree that if they want to make the kirby representation complete, all they need is bandana dee.
