Tableturf Battle stats

I've gone through the entire clip of Tableturf Battle and documented all the info within. This is mostly stats. I know it may be a bit early for that, but I'm not planning to be a editor for this wiki. Just passing along the info. https://imgur.com/a/EaLDTmD --Eldritchdraaks (talk) 06:34, 11 August 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Rules

I made a list of apparent rules and some other observations here. Would it be premature to add these to the wiki page? Gomtuu (talk) 20:30, 12 August 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Probably best to leave out anything speculated on at this time, and only include things that are confirmed. Eldritchdraaks (talk) 22:31, 12 August 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Baby Jelly claim

Just adding an explanation for the baby jelly claim: The beginning of the Direct segment about Tableturf Battle shows that the player is playing against someone named "Baby Jelly" on Main Street. I'm guessing Baby Jelly is an NPC for a few reasons:

  • Baby Jelly's Splashtag doesn't have a title or a player number.
  • The placement of the baby jelly image on the Splashtag doesn't match the placement of Splashtag badges we've seen.
  • Baby Jelly's Japanese name is しょしんしゃクラゲ (shoshinsha kurage), which means "beginner jellyfish", suggesting that this is a tutorial or one of your first opponents.
  • The location of the battle is "Main Street" rather than "Lobby" or something similar.

List of rivals?

I see that User:Lapsem has been adding the rivals' deck lists (in a comment). That's great! But it made me wonder if there should be a separate page for rivals. There's a fair amount of information we could collect about each one, such as the required rank, deck list, card sleeve image, quotes, and maybe a screenshot of each one sitting at the Tableturf Battle Dojo table.

I made a quick draft in my sandbox and experimented with two different ways of displaying the decks. If someone wants to run with this, go ahead. Or I can do it!

By the way, the deck lists have been datamined and are available here (on the Deck List tab). Gomtuu (talk) 17:52, 13 September 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Thank you for noticing it and wanting to spin it off into something bigger, Gomtuu! Also, I've made some tweaks to the version of the table that you used for Baby Jelly, but I couldn't get the card images to display in the center of each cell. I like this version because it doesn't take up as much space with the list of card names, and it lets there be a description of the deck at the top.
Starter Deck
Splattershot
Blaster
Splat Roller
Splat Charger
Heavy Splatling
Slosher
Splat Dualies
Tri-Stringer
Splatana Wiper
Splat Bomb
Zapfish
Flooder
Chum
SquidForce
Marigold
Also, I wasn't datamining for the players whose decks I already documented.

Oh, dear. I didn't know that the formatting would be butchered if I placed the table's code in the normal "reply" box. I've edited the general talk page to get it to show up properly. Lapsem (talk) 03:47, 14 September 2022 (UTC) Edited on: Lapsem (talk) 04:12, 14 September 2022 (UTC) |}Reply[reply]
Here's a mockup of what a Quotes page would look like, with a separate table for each language option:

Sheldon So, you know I talk a big game about weapons, and you're wondering if I can back it up, right? Consider what's about to happen a lesson! I'll be using my carefully curated deck that's absolutely STACKED with some of the most formidable cards in existence! Just as I predicted—I win! Sorry—I don't get to battle much. This is all I have! No! How could this happen? I've got to do more research... Rest assured, I'll use the data from this matchup to provide a tougher challenge next time. Back to my research chamber! I can't believe it—we tied! What an unusual result. I think, by definition, this makes us rivals. Well played, rival! Thank you for being such a worthy Tableturf Battle competitor. As a small token of my appreciation, I got you some special card sleeves! I look forward to many more well-fought battles with you in the future.
Gnarly Eddy Oh! Uh, hey. You want to BATTLE me? That sounds, like, intense... I mean, I'm not any good, but I like playing games, so... Let's do it? Whoa. I guess I won. Sorry. I don't wanna harsh your vibe or anything. Guess I got lucky. Yeah, you're pretty good at this. I'll totally try harder next time. If...if you want, I mean. Whoa, a tie. Like...did we even play a game if there's no winner or loser? We gotta try again sometime. Just to make sure this isn't, like, all a dream or something... Hey, so, ummm... Thanks for, like, always playing this game with me. I guess it'd be pretty cool if you used these card sleeves sometime. I mean...if you want to. I'm kinda totally into this game now, so maybe we can play again sometime?
