So much splatting in Tower Control (19-7, Tri-slosher)

Wednesday, April 5th, 2017

A bit of aggression mixed with caution at the start of this battle. It's a pretty good mix, getting me a splat and keeping me safe. If it weren't for the Splattershot Jr's Bubbler, I probably would have kept going longer. But such is the Bubbler, and I know how ...

Inky support in Tower Control (9-1, Tri-slosher)

Wednesday, April 5th, 2017

The purple team are off to a flying start! Or one inkling is, which isn't quite enough to do much with the Tower, and we chase her off pretty quickly. I wonder where the other purple inklings are. Just slightly behind their first, it seems. I climb up the Heights again ...

Finally taking control in Tower Control (9-5, Carbon Roller Deco)

Tuesday, April 4th, 2017

I'm not sure I approve of the trade at the start of this battle. I am trying to be cautious, inking some turf, and not getting in to trouble. But the number of times I am splatted by falling ink is getting on my nerves a bit. Still, at least ...

Turning the tables in Splat Zones (6-3, Carbon Roller Deco)

Tuesday, April 4th, 2017

Phew, what I think is a defensive start goes poorly, as a Splattershot Pro blasts me from a rising platform. It can't get much worse, right? Maybe the side route offers a better launch point for my Seekers. Nope, blocks or platforms in the way. Fair enough. I know that ramp ...

Some good splats in the Splat Zones (11-5, Carbon Roller Deco)

Monday, April 3rd, 2017

Camp Triggerfish Splat Zones has been going well for me with the Carbon Roller Deco tonight, so I start this battle as I have the others. I would say it works even better than usual, but I don't think I really had a hand in it. Even so, I keep the ...

Keeping it teal in Splat Zones (9-4, Carbon Roller Deco)

Monday, April 3rd, 2017

I'm starting with the Carbon Roller Deco tonight, if only because it seems easier for me to go from this to the Tri-slosher than the other way around, and I'd like the option of both weapons. Splat Zones works well for the Carbon Roller, although Ancho-V Games is a little ...

Splatting around the Splat Zones (19-4, Carbon Roller Deco)

Sunday, April 2nd, 2017

After revisiting the Splatterscope and Tri-slosher, it's taken me a few battles to remember how to best use the Carbon Roller Deco, but I think it's coming back to me. I take my time inking some turf at the start of the battle, as turf control is vital for the ...

Hard-fought Splat Zones (9-9, Carbon Roller Deco)

Sunday, April 2nd, 2017

Splat Zones aren't going well for me so far this evening. Arguably, they still aren't. I'm trying to use my Carbon Roller Deco more to its advantages now, as the switch from the Tri-slosher made me a little aggressive in its use. I can't do much without inked turf, so I ...

Providing forward support in Rainmaker (6-1, Tri-slosher)

Saturday, April 1st, 2017

Not so slick a start to diving down Moray Towers, but at least I don't fall off the edge. Not that I did that in the last game, nopers. Rather than foolishly head straight in to buckets of ink being thrown at the Rainmaker, I head around inking turf and ...

Poor start becomes a clear run in Rainmaker (0-2, Tri-slosher)

Saturday, April 1st, 2017

Tri-sloshing on Moray Towers can often work well for me. Not so much at the start of this battle. My opening gambit goes poorly when a well-thrown Suction Bomb explodes on contact with the Rainmaker's shield, taking me with it. My return doesn't go much better. Trying to take a slightly ...
