Running amok on Moray Towers Tower Control (9-0, Tri-slosher)

Saturday, December 31st, 2016

I've been waiting for Moray Towers to pop up. I played an extra couple of battles on Piranha Pit because of that, not that I minded. I got a tonne of splats in those battles too, and had a lot of fun. But let's see if I can manoeuvre my ...

Making myself a nuisance to no avail in Tower Control (19-9, Tri-slosher)

Saturday, December 31st, 2016

Still no Moray Towers appearing for me. I can stick it out a little longer, as my Tri-slosher is giving me a whole load of fun. Yes, even when I run headlong in to a splat first thing in the battle. That's a habit I should get out of, really. Another ...

Getting it together in Tower Control (13-10, Tri-slosher)

Friday, December 30th, 2016

No charger on the other team, so I slow down my start to get more charge in to my Special. That's the plan, but blue splat from above has other ideas for me. Trying to stop the Towers blue progress has a run-in with the Wasabi Splattershot. I'll get to know ...

Causing trouble in Tower Control (16-7, Tri-slosher)

Friday, December 30th, 2016

I'm having that E-litre 3K. I squid hard to the ramp, and squid up and over to, well, see the E-litre is not where I expect him to be. He hasn't spotted me though, so a quick Disruptor, well-aimed this time, and a bit of persistence bags me my splat. I ...

Splats but little progress in Tower Control (15-8, Tri-slosher)

Thursday, December 29th, 2016

Splat Zones didn't go so well for me this evening. But the session changes, and we have Tower Control battles on Piranha Pit and Moray Towers. Time to have some fun with the Tri-slosher! Sorry for getting in your way, Mr E-litre 3K. I know it's frustrating when that happens. At ...

A few good splats in Tower Control (9-3, Splatterscope)

Thursday, December 29th, 2016

It's an untidy start to this Tower Control battle for me. I try to throw a Splat Bomb but fail, the one I throw bounces off the Tower, and then I fall off the Tower. Pressing forwards has my running headfirst in to a Heavy Splatling, and when I dodge ...

Riding along the bridge in Tower Control (7-3, Splatterscope)

Wednesday, December 28th, 2016

Hammerhead Bridge looks like it should be a good map for chargers, with its long and thin design. But there are so many elevation changes with blocks and grates either giving inklings flanking routes or blocking sight lines that I'm not quite sure a charger is the best weapon. That ...

Charger mayhem at the museum in Tower Control (10-9, Splatterscope)

Wednesday, December 28th, 2016

The open spaces of Museum d'Alfonsino, and an E-litre 3K Scope on the other team. I doubt I'll fare well in this Tower Control battle, although I pull off a decent splat to start with. Immediately I am reminded how other chargers are better than me, though. Still, I do like ...

Got my aim in at last in Rainmaker (10-8, Splatterscope)

Tuesday, December 27th, 2016

It's been ages since I've played Hammerhead Bridge, and so my knowledge of this intricate map is a bit rusty. Like the Bridge itself. I revert to my normal plan of action, and grab the Rainmaker whether it's safe or not, and try to make some progress. I make a bit ...

Brutally simple Splat Zones (3-0, Splatterscope)

Tuesday, December 27th, 2016

I take my usual perch in Arowana Mall when I have the Splatterscope equipped, and aim for the squids in the Splat Zones. I know it doesn't look like it, but I really am trying to aim for them. There is a messy tussle for the Splat Zones, but they turn ...
