Getting in to trouble in Splat Zones (6-1, Tri-slosher)

Tuesday, June 20th, 2017

I do like that side-route to start a Splat Zones battle on Walleye Warehouse, at least with my Tri-slosher. This time, an inkling is coming down the corridor I use to get behind their team, and I actually have the sense to avoid them, after throwing a Disruptor. It doesn't ...

Going behind the lines in Splat Zones (7-3, Tri-slosher)

Tuesday, June 20th, 2017

My gambit to go around the back pays off quite well. We lose the Splat Zones initially, and the green team takes an early but minor lead, but I get behind the opposition and get a triple-splat and help take control of the Splat Zones whilst they are all out ...

Manoeuvring patterns in Splat Zones (6-2, Tri-slosher)

Monday, June 19th, 2017

There are no chargers on the other team in this battle in Walleye Warehouse, but hitting the flank and coming out behind the opposition can still be quite effective. It's not as effective as I hope this time. I squeeze a double-splat out of my Tri-slosher before chasing ink splats ...

Splats but little progress in Rainmaker (17-8, Carbon Roller Deco)

Monday, June 19th, 2017

We burst the Rainmaker's Shield confidently to start the battle, but trying to clear the rest of the area goes a bit pear-shaped. Still, no one grabs the Rainmaker, not even a purple inkling, and it's there for the taking when I return. I make a move, hit the moving ...

Making amends in Rainmaker (9-5, Tri-slosher)

Sunday, June 18th, 2017

I make a beeline to the other side of the map, luckily dodging a Splat Bomb on my way, to find the Splat Charger on his perch, but he's not there. Never mind, a quick inking of the podium, probably pointless, and I hop over the perch to prevent the ...

What can you do in Splat Zones (6-4, Tri-slosher)

Sunday, June 18th, 2017

It seems like a straightforward start to the battle, thankfully without the E-litre 3K making an early appearance, but I do wonder what the brush is up to. What I shouldn't do is rush in foolishly, so I wait. When she appears, I strike, getting some solid sloshes in, but ...

Blue splat marks all around the Splat Zones (9-1, Tri-slosher)

Saturday, June 17th, 2017

I head to the left and see a blue tell-tale trail of ink heading to the blue team's ramp. I don't make that last slosh, to not give myself away, and get an easy first splat. From there to the Splat Zones, and a few sloshes upwards gets the next ...

Pushing for the Splat Zones (13-6, Tri-slosher)

Saturday, June 17th, 2017

Quickly to the Splat Zone, capture it, and push up. A squidmate makes a nice trail to follow, and I jink early to avoid trouble and make some of my own. The Slosher is a goner, but I muck up splatting the E-litre 3K, which is a bit disappointing. But ...

Trying my best in Splat Zones (11-6, Tri-slosher)

Friday, June 16th, 2017

Zoom, to the Splat Zone! Ink the Splat Zone and push forwards, confidently but cautiously. I think it's going well, until one inkling becomes two, but so it goes. My squidmates have the teal Splat Zone neutralised, which is good, and I am caught between moving up to help and ...

Squidding around in Splat Zones (4-2, Carbon Roller Deco)

Friday, June 16th, 2017

It's a decent start to this battle. We move up smoothly behind a Seeker, capture our Splat Zone, and I hold it as my squidmates aggressively push for the other Splat Zone. They get it too, maybe not for long, but it's a good move. I get a lucky splat with ...
