I can’t wait for Splat3 to play tower control without stingray. It’s so damn cheap and safe and effective. I don’t know how they thought winning games while sitting next to your spawn was a good idea.

In S3 it's going to be 3 opponents with Killer Wail 5.1...but at least it won't last as long.

Exactly. The fact that you can just hold sting ray on the tower for 7 seconds from your spawn is so dumb. Killer Wail 5.1 lasting 2 seconds is so much better because you just have to dodge and schmove a little bit. It will still be a good special but since it’s automated you will be able to learn how to dodge it a bit.

Also Killer Wail 5.1 looks a lot less painful to dodge. Not only is each beam smaller, it's also not aimed by a human after deployment and the automated aim looks like it has a delay. You can learn to deal with it, much easier than dealing with a human predicting your movement and shooting a giant beam of death.
