Squishy revenge in Tower Control (11-8, Carbon Roller Deco)

Monday, April 10th, 2017

That E-litre 3K could prove to be trouble for us in Tower Control in Museum d'Alfonsino, and for me in particular with my short-range Carbon Roller Deco. It would be nice if he didn't prove it within seconds of the battle starting, though. In a move that suggests personal progress, I ...

Caution pays off in Tower Control (5-2, Carbon Roller Deco)

Monday, April 10th, 2017

It's not the best-aimed Seeker I've thrown at the start of a Kelp Dome battle, but it hits the ramp well enough to ink a path over for me. This is not a cautious route, it has to be said, and actually quite aggressive. But once over the top, with ...

Being A-class in A Rank Rainmaker (9-5, Carbon Roller Deco)

Sunday, April 9th, 2017

This has been another big losing streak. From the middle of S Rank, a brief will-I/won't-I in A+, and down to A Rank. It's just been one of those weeks. Well, let's see if I can have some fun with my new almost-favourite weapon, the Carbon Roller Deco. I don't launch ...

Always have a bubbler ready in Rainmaker (9-6, Tri-slosher)

Sunday, April 9th, 2017

I feel I've neglected the Tri-slosher a bit with my new-found like of the Carbon Roller Deco, so I am trying to split my time between the two weapons more. I can feel a bit more aggressive with the Tri-slosher, not being quite so reliant on turf control, but holy ...

From green to pink in Splat Zones (10-7, Tri-slosher)

Saturday, April 8th, 2017

Look at me being a team player! I even get a 'Nice! for splatting an inkling. That's encouraging! I soon run in to some ink, though, and do it again. And with not only the Splat Zones entirely green, but most of the turf around them, our chances in the ...

From splatted to splatter in Splat Zones (14-6, Tri-slosher)

Saturday, April 8th, 2017

Splat Zones on Piranha Pit, with a Splatterscope on the other team, and I don't immediately head pell mell for the charger? Yes, I'm playing the objective! Long may it last. Ah, there we go. I spy the charger and think I am in a good position. But the Splatterscope ...

Rolling around the Splat Zones (10-3, Carbon Roller Deco)

Friday, April 7th, 2017

The battles move to Splat Zones, but I stick with the Carbon Roller Deco. The Warehouse is where I had my first decent Carbon Roller battle, so I'm hoping lightning will strike twice. At least during one of my matches. Seekers and rolling are good for movement and inking turf, and ...

Always forwards in Rainmaker (13-8, Carbon Roller Deco)

Friday, April 7th, 2017

Time for some quick Carbon Roller Deco fun before the battle modes change. The Seekers help us get to the centre of Arowana Mall nice and quickly, and I sneak past the Rainmaker to gives us an early advantage. That jump-splat would have been legendary, I reckon. Back along the side ...

Forward pressure in Rainmaker (4-1, Tri-slosher)

Thursday, April 6th, 2017

Okay, I said it's easier to move from the Carbon Roller to the Tri-slosher, but the evening starts with Rainmaker on Moray Towers and Arowana Mall. This calls for the bucket! Once again, it seems like all the cool kids come out to play on a Monday night, so the ...

Stealing the glory in Rainmaker (3-3, Tri-slosher)

Thursday, April 6th, 2017

I rush to the centre of Arowana Mall, as I tend to,but with the intention of sneaking around the back. I am stalled by a similar inkling from the other team, and have a squidmate to thank for my not getting splatted so soon. I don't last too much longer, ...
