Getting splatty around the Splat Zones (10-4, Carbon Roller Deco)

Thursday, June 15th, 2017

Lots of rollers! And a little shoal of squids on the way to our Splat Zone. The blue team has made a good push to get there too, and I find myself trading Seekers with another Carbon Roller. I take care she doesn't follow behind a Seeker, and clear up ...

Keeping the purple team occupied in Tower Control (12-9, Tri-slosher)

Thursday, June 15th, 2017

The Slosher can slosh more than my Tri-slosher. That's fair enough. I have to wonder what my squidmates have been up to, as there wasn't that much inking to be heard at the start, and no ink along the right corridor on my return. I'm sure they were busy, though. ...

Keeping the Tower moving in Tower Control (13-6, Carbon Roller Deco)

Wednesday, June 14th, 2017

There's lots of jostling behind my Seeker as we race to the Tower. I can't blame that for my second Seeker not making its way through the plant pots. It's a tight line. As my squidmates look to control the centre of the Mall, I push the Tower a little. ...

Splats everywhere in Tower Control (13-6, Carbon Roller Deco)

Wednesday, June 14th, 2017

Straight out of the gate with my Seekers, and it's a good aim with the second to get between the plants up the ramp to the Tower. One squidmate takes some ink to the beak, but I drop off to the side and splat the two green inklings who have ...

Going behind the Splat Zones (11-4, Tri-slosher)

Tuesday, June 13th, 2017

I don't want to rush in to the Splat Zones to start with, not that it looks like I can do much with my bucket from above them. Moving to the side helps, but I will have to get my hands inky soon. I spy the Splatterscope causing problems, so ...

Hitting a sticky wicket in Splat Zones (7-4, Tri-slosher)

Tuesday, June 13th, 2017

I provide some support to start the battle, inking a path and throwing a Disruptor at the Squiffer. As I turn my attention to the Splat Zones, an inkling catches my eye, but as I slosh up to him another falls on top of me. I impulsively follow, which is ...

Being vigilant around the Splat Zones (6-0, Tri-slosher)

Monday, June 12th, 2017

It's been a streak of all-or-nothing Splat Zone battles so far, and I've got a bit frustrated when on the 'nothing' side, pushed back to our base and unable to see the Splat Zones half the time. I'm not quite sure what's causing this, but I encourage myself to battle ...

Blasted revenge in Tower Control (12-11, Grim Range Blaster)

Monday, June 12th, 2017

It's the third battle in a row where I'm facing the same Grim Range Blaster on the other team, with my own Grim Range Blaster. I got some decent direct hits on her in the last battle, so the squidbagging she gives me in this battle is some well-deserved and ...

Pulling it back in Tower Control (12-8, Grim Range Blaster)

Sunday, June 11th, 2017

My aim at the Tower is maybe a bit too on-point, as hitting the column may be a central hit, but it doesn't help with the blast. Two indirect hits clear the Tower eventually, though, and then I'm back dancing with the Grim Range Blaster from the previous battle! We're ...

Some success with the Range Blaster in Tower Control (11-8, Grim Range Blaster)

Sunday, June 11th, 2017

We should probably split up more, but I suppose it's okay at the start of the battle to stick together a bit. I get a decent first splat, hitting one inkling off a perch, but my aim is slightly low towards the other perch. I think the flying inkling betters ...
