Badly losing the battle in Rainmaker (11-6, Splatterscope)

Sunday, October 16th, 2016

It's not a bad loss, we just lose in a way that is really bad for me. But that's closer to the end, really. I wonder what my strategy is for Mahi-Mahi Resort Rainmaker as the battle begins. Ink turf, aim for inklings, wing it in finding safe perches, I suppose. The ...

Out-scoped in Splat Zones (3-6, Splatterscope)

Sunday, October 16th, 2016

Still sticking with the Splatterscope, I have a couple of minutes of Splat Zones before the modes change. As luck would have it, the map that comes up is Moray Towers! Excellent. Of course, that means two chargers on the other team, and they are probably better than me. So ...

Lucky splats in Tower Control (8-3, Splatterscope)

Saturday, October 15th, 2016

When you're doing well, the splats fall in to your lap. Another battle on Blackbelly Skatepark, and I am opposite an E-litre 3K this time. I think I need to be a little less conventional to survive. Forgoing my usual perch may have saved my suction cups. A green inkling takes ...

Super splats in Tower Control (8-5, Splatterscope)

Saturday, October 15th, 2016

The Splatterscope is working well for me this session. If it's just a weekend phenomenon, I should at least remember that. Or maybe I am just getting my mojo back. Two lucky splats fall in my lap at around 50", which makes it look like I know what I'm doing. I ...

Unsuccessful charging in Tower Control (10-5, Splatterscope)

Friday, October 14th, 2016

I'm sticking with the Splatterscope, which is my plan for now. Arowana Mall crops up again, which suits me. Off to my perch, and I start pulling my shots. Good stuff! I can hit a Splash Wall, though. I am really enjoying the Splatterscope again. I hope it is because I ...

Skating around the park in Tower Control (12-4, Splatterscope)

Friday, October 14th, 2016

Blackbelly Skatepark. I don't know how my charging skills will fare on this map, but I'm sure there is potential. I remember a decent perch as we start and make my way there, moving on as required, and bidding a hasty retreat when it starts going pear-shaped. At least I survive ...

Returning to the Splatterscope on Tower Control (7-2, Splatterscope)

Thursday, October 13th, 2016

Remember when I used to run around with a Splatterscope, almost exclusively? Yeah, me too. Then I got in to the higher ranks and started getting stomped, leading me to try other weapons. Well, no more! I'm going back to the Splatterscope for a bit, whatever the maps, whatever the ...

Finding my spot in Splat Zones (1-0, Slosher)

Thursday, October 13th, 2016

Switching weapons away from the Tri-slosher to find another I can use effectively has me only going as far as the Slosher. Not a great variety this session, admittedly, but the ability to spread ink over a large area quickly seems like a good feature for Splat Zones battles. The two ...

Going around the Splat Zones (4-2, Tri-slosher)

Wednesday, October 12th, 2016

I love Flounders Heights. So many routes to take, so many walls to squid up, so many ways to get ambushed. Ideally, I would be the one doing the ambushing, and I think I am in this battle. I zip past the Splat Zones with an eye to coming up behind ...

Mildly disrupting the Splat Zones (7-9, Tri-slosher)

Wednesday, October 12th, 2016

Maybe I should only upload the first part of this battle. I think I do rather well, particularly with it being my first battle of the evening. Well, okay, once I find my way around Ancho-V Games Splat Zones again, remembering that dead end. Splatting that Luna Blaster was good, but ...
