You forgot to mention that it can stack up to 4 opponents, so you can technically respawn punish all 4 enemies if they all killed you. Sooo my only gripe with Haunt is the fact that your team can kill the haunted user and the effect will be gone. If that wasn’t the case it would’ve been so much better

It's a combination between the open map design and the lack of cover on most maps that makes Haunt good, plus it's great for identifying your opponents your often gonna get killed by Slayers and backlines so knowing where they're positioning makes the game a lot easier.

I always feel bad about carrying abilities that make other players' lives harder, because I know how annoyed I get when I'm respawn punished. So I'm torn about if I wanna use this new knowledge for evil.

I personally wish that haunt could counter the current ninja squid meta. If you could see enemies swimming in their ink as well as see their outline behind objects, then I think it would be highly worth using.

I remember you briefly mentioning Haunt functions in a previous video (while explaining your gear) , so I started looking it up but no one actually made a comprehensive video at the time which was a bummer. Thanks for uploading information on why you could use haunt

haunt is crazy good, been using it on tetra for a while now and it's so strong especially when going for a trade or killing a tough opponent or someone that has respawn punisher. being able to track enemies through walls without having to throw an autobomb is really nice as well

Haunt was kind of in my radar recently because i had seen a lot more people use it. I thought about it at one point, but this video gave me the push to actually try it out for myself (on wiper), and honestly it feels like it clicked INSTANTLY for me. Def making my wiper build around this!

Now I understand why when I get killed by someone with haunt (only happened on splat 2 yet) the game marks the haunt ability from their gear like it does with punisher. I always wondered why does the game say it does something to you (like puniser), yet it didn't seem to do anything. I had asked about this in the past but I never got an answer. Thank you

it's like you read my mind, i put it on YESTERDAY to try out a tetra build and now i'm like how in the hell have i been feeding all this time without it, it personally helps so much and leaves me way less clueless respawning, tho i didn't know about the respawn punishing ability that's even crazier actually

It actually makes sense about this sub ability. I Really don't used that ability but I'm gonna practice with it and even grain that ability with quick respond. Thanks for the tip!

This was informative, thank you ^^

Also, thermal ink is insanely good on tri stringer. Not sure why more people don't use it.

off topic but I LOVE YOUR BANNERS WTH

I never knew about this! That’s pretty useful actually, especially for me (who used it in Splatoon 1).

Haunt is definitely a decent ability, but I wouldn’t say get it for free as you mentioned @2:58 , you might not even get to splat the enemy yourself, which would render the effect useless Congrats on 15k though, I really appreciate the effort you put into your videos. your videos are always very informative and easy to understand, which is great for newer players

Well this is going back into my main gear! This is so good. I didn't know of the respawn punish effect and no drawbacks for dying. This is very useful information. :) Awesome video.

really good vid man, been waiting for someone to explain what makes this amazing ability so good and u did such a good job, and big congrats on ur 15k man!

I will also note, since it's the person who kills you that gets haunted, it means that the more prevalent threats are the ones getting respawn punished, provided you kill them of course. Your death becomes less of a setback, and more of a scouting method that just naturally happens in gameplay

I didn't know the secret ability about haunt! Thanks for making this!

def gonna look into putting it in my clam blitz gear set

I did not know that chase and it is helpful and I play a game with you before and I had a long way to go to be at pro level and thank you for the tip on how to get better at the game.

I was wondering what the reason was for you running haunt in your founder heights video… I had decided to slap haunt on my splatfest tee just a while ago and then you upload this video lol, gonna give it a shot now!

It really seems like all of the secondary abilities added through balance patches in Splatoon 2 are confusing everyone who’s new. I really don’t know why they didn’t update the ability descriptions.

Just subscribed, I play a lot with dualies too, but I'm not too good with it, I get a lot more splats with the splattershot

ive been using haunt for a while now and i never knew of this, now i feel smart but stupid at the same time

I recently tried it with Comeback on the Tentatek and it feels so much better. It helps me flush out enemies with Triple Inkstrike so I can get them.

Mooooooore gloogas plox. Been getting more into them, but would like to see more high level play.

that seems like a really fun ability. definitely will try out!

Somewhat related question: how come so many Slayer and Support players are using Respawn Punisher? Not just in Turf War, but in Ranked and high level matches, too? Don't they know the drawbacks? Why not just use Haunt instead? It punishes player's respawn time, but with no drawbacks.

I'll definitely give this one a try next time I use the brushes

I think grey hoodie would be the best way to build this for slayers, already has quick respawn prio and sub powerup is really good on splatanas and other weapons on the mean time.

not having ninja squid in favor of haunt doesn't matter for weapons with a charge hold, since the glow would give you away anyways, pretty sure only nautilus, gootuber, and squiffer could really make use of it though, but still, running a tetra set for those weapons are dumb but fun.

Watching this video made me realize I seriously fell off with the tetras after the update

I never knew this… thank you!

I actually asked this question to myself when I went on sendou ink and saw it on tetras thanks for answering it

I've been using Haunt since SP1 and I'm glad people are starting to recognize its value

Amazing thumbnail on this one

I've known about the secondary effect of haunt since I would constantly run it on 1 and 2. It works exactly like the one on Splatoon 2, and the game tells you that haunt does this. I definitely like running this on my Squiffer.

I was kind of thinking about running haunt, but I don’t really have any abilities to switch out, the main ability on my shirt is ink recovery up, and I have a couple of sub abilities of quick respawn, so dying is less punishing, I also run comeback and stealth jump so I wouldn’t switch out any of those for ink recovery. And I also have most of by build set around mobility, which I really need with a lightweight weapon.

It makes sense that it won't be very popular right now considering that Ninja Squid is broken but in hindsight it's kind of odd how it went under the radar after all the buffs it got in 2.

I currently have a Splatana freshest fit that has a shirt with Super Jump Up as a main. Idk, just came with the shirt. Thought about running a Haunt shirt sometimes, but just didn't see enough reason to really worry about it since I prefer this shirt to any with Haunt. FYI, I mainly run that along with Comeback and Stealth Jump. My very idea is to make it so I get in faster and deal more damage if i died. Now I know I absolutely should be using Haunt for my main though. So much so that I am probably just going to get the ability chunks so I can overwrite the main on this shirt.

Hey bro nice video as Always 💯 Just wanted to ask because i just watched your video about Gear how to farm chuncks fast?

I remember it being like this in Splatoon 2 but they mentioned the respawn punisher in the description, and then they omitted it in 3 so that's really confusing. Thank you for letting us know it's still there.

Wish I had any splatoon game haha, watching things like this makes me even more interested in the series

the respawn punish for haunt was added in S2

Ive been using haunt ever since splatoon 2 on tri slosher and octoshot! In this game i havent used it much but thats just because i havent found any cool shirts i want to have it on i definitely plan on using it for stuff like wiper the tri the ttek

Why is the music so eerie damn

I play 52 and zink mini and I’ll totally make a new shirt for both of these after watching this! But I’ll only use it sometimes

as ai charger main in splatoon 2 i would always use haunt because the people who would kill me tend to be the more aggressive players (usually) in a match im playing and with being a charger im almost always behind a wall in the games so it helps me scout out where that player is and makes it easier for me to snipe/hit them

the best weapon right now for haunt in my opinion is splattershot nova. Not only can you spot them if they kill you, but you can track them down and hit them with a point sensor so that the team knows where they are as well. and since HAUNT STACKS TO ALL 4 ENEMY PLAYERS, it can be incredibly evil

i"ve used haunt on tetras even in splat2 and i love it

Ever since watching your "Best Gear for Dualies" video, I finally stopped using the Sploosh-O-Matic to take on a more supportive role with the Dapple Dualies and never looked back. While I'm sure Ninja Squid has no doubt saved my takoyaki a few times, I think I'll probably give Haunt a shot, especially since it'll free up my headgear, which is all Swim Speed Up to accommodate for Ninja Squid's inherent nerf to swim speed. Any suggestions for headgear builds? For reference, my current skill set matches your second build for Dapple Dualies in that video.

I have worshipped haunt since splatoon 2. and i LOVE IT.

Ohhhh, so this is why Haunt will glow when you get killed by someone with it, similar to how Respawn Punisher does

i put it on carbon and i feel like it’s really good for it! especially since i play extra aggressive with all my weapons

I'm a roller main and I spent a lot to put thermal ink on my favorite jacket.. But this is really convincing

If i have gear with 1 haunt and 3 qr does haunts effect change if i get haunt four timed?

I've encountered you a couple of times in this game before and wondered why you were using Respawn Punisher, considering I don't see it very often.

Do you have a video talking about the other hidden abilities?

This is actually insane but now I'm sorta split on which to use. On one hand with thermal, I can track multiple people for a bit, but with haunt I can track (likely) one person indefinitely with the added punisher ability 🤔🤔

I’m Splatoon 2, I remember when I mained thermal ink. But I never realized it doesn’t work with many blasters, and Luna blaster was one of my mains.. 💀

1:20 that should have been in the reefslider compilation

I was already using it but on Tri Stringer mostly. Guess when I play Wiper I should run that.

reeflux is gonna be disgusting with this. Not sure what other people classify it as, but I play it like a slayer. Seeing people is really busted not because you can arc your shots over the wall (that's good, but hard to pull off), it's because you can get the jump on them with a curling bomb + 2 piece. Or you can 3 piece them. Another sick thing about respawn punishing is that I always farm special after I die as well so add that onto the list of things that help with a kill too. Really cool tip.

I have a question i played alot of splatoon 2 and i was hopeing there was going to be alot more new weapons so should i buy splatoon 3 why or why not

Oh my god, is that why I see the haunt icon pulsing on gear sometimes when I die??? I had absolutely no idea

Hey chase what tram are you gonna be in for the upcoming splatfest

I run respawn punisher on dualie squelches cuz it’s really effective on the current meta people put a shit ton of quick respawn and I normally super jump anyways so it doesn’t really matter

Hey Chase, another rqst. I would love a new opinion video on dream dualie kits. I know you dropped one before Splat3 dropped, but now the game is out and we have all felt the specials for ourselves. Would love a new opinion video

the whole time I'm just mesmerized with how he's dodging, rolling and shooting very fast LOL

Idk if it's good but i will try this with the new brella on drizzle season. I think it's could be cool to haunt people who kill you when you're in inkjet or at the landpoint. And .... It's brella soo i think i will die a lot + i rarely play this weapon 😂

Considering my playstyle is get killed by e-liter, forget about objective and go kill e-liter this will likely help me

Because the default main ability for my amiibo shirt is haunt, and as someone who wants to main brushes, I can confirm haunt is good.

good on guns that aren’t very gear dependent like tetras or gloogas, but if you’re using something like dualie squelchers, sloshing machine, or splash it probably isn’t worth the gear space

if only i could have ninja squid and haunt at the same time it would make a crazy dapples build

I KNEW IT

Would Haunt be good to run using the Light Tetras? Or is there more value to having a main of QR since there are more special-related abilities it needs to run than the Darks??

I mean I just mainly use haunt for tri stringer for the range and angles it can have

Haunt with qr is crazy

Ikr!!!!! ✨✨✨ i think the same thing

Haunt+Comeback+Stealth Jump+Quick Respawn+Special Saver

I personally prefer comeback to haunt just a preference I just run stealth jump anyway with a absurd amount or qr

i actually used haunt for a while but with everyone else using ninja squid and myself feeling like im caught to much i switched

Does the respawn punishing effect activate when you trade? Kinda like quick respawn still activates if you trade. Good video btw!

I feel like Haunt needs another buff where, if you get killed again by the guy(s) you're Haunting, you get Quick Respawn. You already have to die once for Haunt to take effect, so it only seems fair.

How do you manage to have the prettiest rendered thumbnails on youtube

Underrated channel spotted

My question is dose it stack with RSP? Like you have hunt and splat someone with RSP. will your hunt effects stack with there RSP?

Haunt has one drawback: I wouldn’t get my ninja squid :(

i play splash and lowkey now im gonna run haunt (i die a lot / am still working on improving my death count, so haunt would be more useful to me than most splash users)

My suspicion was correct i saw haunt and i thought is haunt good with tetras and now that im seeing this video i will say definently

Cool

So it’s not a tangible change on Haunt but rather the current environment? Cool

What happens if you trade? Does it matter who dies first, or does haunt always activate no matter what?

haunt with qr tetras would be interesting in comp

If you trade kills does opponent get respawn punish?

tbh respawn punisher does need a nerf (the ability) a the longer range your *main* is the harsher the downsides are on you and the lighter the effect is on enemies

So should I take Hundt instead of Ninja?

For me, the trade off with not having ninja squid just isn't worth it. Especially since ninja squid is always active, whereas haunt is only around if you die. And not having ninja squid as a slayer, would mean I would probably die more (which ik would make haunt more useful, but it's better just not dying). This is just my opinion as a brush main, tho

Haunt a good counter for Squid ninja
