Heyy I'm a random cephalopod you just stumbled upon. Why are you reading this? I don't know. But it's not like I can really stop you or anything and I also don't have anything better to do :]

Personal stuff

Hi! My name's Zay, and I'm a fellow enby brazilian! I was born in the southeast region, but I lived in the northeast for 6 years, although i currently live in the southeast again.

I learn English since I was 4 years old, and despite having good writing and understanding skills, my brazilian accent is still very thick, but I've been working on that! Also I’m learning japanese and I’m currently at level N5 :)

I have ADHD, APD, dyslexia and perfect pitch. Things can get pretty confusing to me, but thankfully I'm gifted so it doesn't affect my school grades all that much.

Speaking of which, I'm in first year of Ensino Médio, which I think correlates to sophomore. I really like drawing stuff and I aspire to study and become an animator in the future! Here are some stuff btw (I’m too lazy to update those, they’re from 2023)

I won’t open commissions anymore so I can build up my portfolio with something other than silly squids and octopuses lmao

Splatoon 3

January 2021

While searching for character references, I found an image of agent 8 and thought they looked really cool. So I searched a bit about the game and started liking the franchise, and started watching some YouTubers like Jaymoji and ThatSBR2Dude.

February 2021

Splatoon 3 was announced and I saw the video on YouTube the following day. I was so hyped, not because I wanted to play it since I didn't even have a switch, but to see the SplatTubers I was watching play it.

December 2021

My father got me and my sister a switch. I was so happy because now I had a chance at maybe being able to play the game when it came out.

August 2022

The Splatoon 3 direct happened. By then I was already fully emerged in the Splatoon fandom without even playing the game, and I already knew the lore like the palm of my hand.

When the idols were introduced, I liked Frye from the start. Even though I'm Brazilian, my heart already belonged to Frye before Big Man was introduced. And I was full-on FLABBERGASTED when I heard Anarchy Rainbow. I legit started crying. The representation was SO good.

I was also extremely happy when the testfire was announced, so I would get a chance to play the game before buying it.

I went on team Scissors not for the memes or Big Man, just because I always start a Jankenpon (RPS) match with scissors. Although I have to admit, I was heavily tempted to choose team Paper for Frye.

My aiming was uhh, terrible to say the least. And the weapon I picked for that day was Splat Charger of all things. I don't think I ever won a match that Splatfest. But I was so happy I actually experienced Splatoon that it didn't really matter at all.

After the testfire Splatfest, I still kept reloading the demo in an alt account so I could practice aiming in the tutorial, and eventually I learned how to do the out of bounds glitch as well.

September 2022

The game came out although I had to wait a week to buy it since I was travelling at that time. I went 10/3 or something in my first match and I was so happy (although I would later get to know that 7 of them were assists LMAO). But nevertheless, repeating the demo after it was done really helped me to get my aim ready for the game. Although it was still jacky it was wayyyy less than in the testfire splatfest.

After I was able to get another weapon with Sheldon, I decided not to go for the Splat Charger since I knew I had to get my aim better, so I chose the Splattershot (I didn't like rollers at all so that's why I didn't even consider it. I still don't have the vanilla roller to this day). After a while I also bought the .52 Gal, so I started using both of them as mains.

Aaaand the Island Splatfest was announced! I was euphoric because Splatfests were one of the things I most looked forward to in Splatoon, so having another one already made me really happy. I ended up choosing team Fun, since I don't know how to use emergency stuff for camping and food would attract animals anyway, so since I'm not gonna survive I'm gonna at least be playing tableturf in my last moments.

Speaking of which, I started playing tableturf here as well. I thought it looked really cool, and tableturf also was a factor for me to watch Yu-Gi-Oh! (and now I'm heavily hyperfixated on the franchise). I didn't know how decks worked at all, although I did watch some videos from cryptidcultist (btw go check out her videos they're awesome).

October 2022

No splatfest. Sadge.

1000%’d Alterna this month, completing all levels with all the possible weapons, after alterna, and getting all the maps.

I’m pretty sure this is when I started using the Dapple Dualies as well, however I kept using Splattershot and .52 Gal as mains instead.

Around this time, I started getting interested in maybe someday joining competitive splatoon. Not much to say about this month as a whole though.

November 2022

The Grass vs. Fire vs. Water splatfest happened that month! I was not exactly that excited about it since I’m not a huge Pokémon fan anyways. I mean I do have 187 physical cards but I wasn’t that enthusiastic about the game or the anime. But I always liked Turtwig, so I went for Team Grass. Although I did think of joining Team Water because of the new starter Pokémon looking very silly.

Because of that and the whole thing happening in the community about Shiver winning the splatfests, I felt I was betraying my team in a way. Really dumb now that I look back about it. Anyways, Big Man won with a sweep and I remember I was shocked. Also the fact that they still won after halftime, which before the tricolor change was considered to be something that would guarantee your team’s loss, right before they changed it, was epic in my opinion. Only splatfest I was happy another team won.

After the splatfest I collected myself some Sheldon Licenses, so I went to Sheldon and went “You know what f*ck it I’m buying the Heavy Splatling”. Best decision in my life. I didn’t even test it before buying but I went to a Turf War match straight away and fell in love with the weapon. I knew it was gonna be my main as soon as I started playing with it. So I almost completely dropped the Splattershot and .52 and stuck to almost only Heavy Splatling for the rest of the month.

December 2022

After playing so much with the Heavy Splatling, I got it to 2 stars and bought the Tri-Stringer as well, cause I didn’t see that many people using it. Although my aim still wasn’t the best so I kinda sucked at it. But it was fun, and I was starting to really like the midline/backline style. The backlash I went from not being able to resist to get into my opponent’s faces to playing more passive and watching out for my enemies was absolutely wild, and that helped me a lot with my mindset as well. I didn’t play as much that month cause y’know, last month of the year, buncha family stuff, traveling, etc etc.

January 2023

New year just dropped, actual splatfes- actually cut that there weren’t any splatfests that month. I was actually so mad for being 2 months without any splatfests lmao. Not much to say about this month either, traveling a lot, so not that much time for funny squid game. But I was gonna enter High School in February and was also moving to São Paulo so that also occupied a lot of my time. Looking back, I’m glad there wasn’t a splatfest that month.
