Low Ink typically sees a small drop off during LUTI season, but not a significant amount. I’ve seen a fair share of psychos who do both and play their matches right after 6 rounds of swiss. But last year’s Superjumps didn’t run during LUTI and had similar Low Ink representation concerns as 20XX does
The Popgun Research Institute is lacking in funding, but I can link our PayPal account if you are interested
Source to claim that Low Ink teams already play teams stronger than them on a regular basis

And that’s okay. The purpose of majors has changed over the years due to the rise in variety of tourney. I miss giant open tourneys too, but the real story here is the + participation as you point out. Why can’t we just celebrate that instead of shifting the convo towards Low Ink teams, again.
Fear is not the correct term. The question is, why should Low Ink teams play in majors? Playing stronger opponents? They already do that. What about a day 2 bracket…against other Low Ink teams they already play 2-3 times a week? Majors don’t offer anything unique that Low Ink teams can’t already get
Damn, spoon hit you with the period.
To keep up with the trend of CEOs eating their products, IPL CEOs Grace and Hoeen will be eating an entire Low Ink and SOS live on stream this Sunday.
LUTI SEASON 17 WEEK 1 BY THE NUMBERS #compsplatoon #LUTI
206/241 round 1 sets reported, incl. 4 forfeits
110 sets (54%) won by higher seed
23 sets went to game 9
1296 games played
20 concurrent sets at peak activity (15 minutes after alternative default time)
You would think that if you are an active X rank player that they wouldn’t want to put you with S players for their benefit. It’s not fun to get curb stomped by someone who has no business being in your lobby to begin with.
Is this the new forfeit feature? Or is this just when a team drops. I guess you can forfeit a match and still play others.

I wish there existed a div lower than 2 that we could’ve put y’all in
LUTI Divs are being wrapped up tonight, LUTI staff will announce at some point Sunday.
Low Ink Feb Day 1 results were counted, but due to the timing of the seeding deadline, day 2 obviously will not be. So for those in the future who ask "how are they in div 5 they just won Low Ink?" that is why.
Doing preliminary surveying of the splatoon audience in western KY and Southern IN!
Likes and Reposts appreciated, please share this around so I have as much information as possible (have multiple venue ideas in mind but need to know how many people can attend)

We have to finish LUTI Divs tonight so that their staff can start putting pools together and get the reveal ready. Here is a sneak peak at the progress we have made so far:
Okay @imxi.bsky.social I now understand the purpose of #highdivsplatoon
Between LUTI seeding and Low Ink verification this week, I gotta say that giving sendou patron supporters the ability to change the colors of their profile page was a big mistake.
That would explain why I unloaded all my shares in div 6 last week
Don’t worry I’ll make sure that won’t happen
Wait is that an actual thing
Sounds good. I have a gamma bracket with your name on it
