.52 gal!

Okay so uuuuuh .52 is one of my least favourite weapons in the entire series. A big part of that is bad memories from having to deal with the kGal in Splatoon 2 for several years, but while Splatoon 3's .52 isn't as good I still think it's an absolute chore to fight against as it's probably the most dishonest weapon in the series, being fully built around using its Wall, decent range, and blazing fast time-to-splat (if a 52 pops out of ink and starts shooting at you, connecting with the first two bullets, it's practically unreactable and depending on latency can actually kill you literally before they've started shooting on your end) to set up unfair fights in its advantage.

I am not saying that 52 players are bad or that they're being carried by their weapon or some such (there is no weapon in Splatoon so good it'll get you free wins), but 52 is probably the weapon that does the most work for you by giving you a lot of really powerful, flexible tools. There's a reason that Melon, the player with the highest X-power in the world and the first player to get 4000+ X-power, primarily uses .52 Gal: It has the tools you need to take control of a match and keep pushing your advantage.

All that said, don't feel bad about your favourite weapon, whatever it is, because no matter what others think of it that doesn't reflect on you as a person. I don't like .52, but I get why other people do! It's a powerful gun with a lot of agency and stopping power, and if that's what you're after then there's really not a better option, and I am glad you're having fun!

But could you maybe please start having worse RNG when you're shooting at me specifically? Please?
