Splatoon 3 idols Deep Cut are the internet's new faves Squiddy with glee. News by Liv Ngan Reporter Intern Published on 11 Aug 2022 6 comments Yesterday's Nintendo Direct featured all things Splatoon 3, and had plenty for returning players and newcomers to get excited about. People are especially hyped for Deep Cut, the new idol group that'll act as hosts throughout the game. Comprised of members Shiver, Frye and Big Man, Nintendo showed off one of Deep Cut's performances for Splatfest celebrations. Deep Cut performing Anarchy Rainbow. Everyone is loving the combination of a scary lady wielding a fan, an idol whose forehead has been freed, and a manta ray. Watching them perform together, how could you not? As a completely unbiased third-party reporter (who thinks you should all be stanning Big Man), I'm bringing you a completely unbiased selection of Splatoon memes (declarations of love for Big Man) swimming around on Twitter. Big Man has proved to be a big hit. My reaction to the Splatoon 3 Direct pic.twitter.com/WOc2FheS1C- Hub Bub (@Hub__Bub) August 10, 2022 To see this content please enable targeting cookies.
