Pressing back the purple in Splat Zones (6-1, Carbon Roller Deco)

Wednesday, August 16th, 2017

No Seeker for me to start the battle. I am aiming to head immediately around the side, and don't want to run out of ink as I roll there. I find an inkling coming down the corridor, but as I went right around the side I catch her from behind, ...

Rollers in the Splat Zones (6-2, Carbon Roller Deco)

Wednesday, August 16th, 2017

Rollers can cover turf pretty well, but they are vulnerable doing so. Going in to the Splat Zones battle with three of them on our team will be interesting. I zoom my way forwards, thanks to a couple of Seekers, and just about avoid the Aerospray's ink to squid up ...

Consecutive splats for the loss in Splat Zones (15-9, Tri-slosher)

Tuesday, August 15th, 2017

I take my usual route around the side to get behind the other team, and with no yellow inklings down the corridor it looks like I've got a clean run to do it. I have to say, my squidding isn't as smooth as it could be, but I get to ...

Not quick enough with the Bubbler in Splat Zones (6-5, Tri-slosher)

Tuesday, August 15th, 2017

I take a long, rather convoluted route to the Splat Zones, but I'm not spotted this time. That lets me hit the purple team from behind, getting a couple of splats, whilst having my Bubbler charged and ready in case of trouble. The trouble comes from below, though, where I'm ...

Frustrating the opposition in Tower Control (12-6, Tri-slosher)

Monday, August 14th, 2017

Rushing to the Tower is a good way to be splatted for nothing. Thankfully for me, this goes more for the other team than me for once, as I squid past the Tower to get a double-splat, and a squidmate gets a third. A squidmate shows good initiative and hops ...

Is it too far in Tower Control (7-12, Fresh Squiffer)

Monday, August 14th, 2017

I almost look like a pro, squiffing towards the Tower, chucking a Suction Bomb ahead of me. Right until I throw a Suction Bomb at the Splatterscope on the perch, and hit the ramp right in front of me. Never mind, no one probably saw that. I retreat to cover ...

Bombs away in Tower Control (6-4, Fresh Squiffer)

Sunday, August 13th, 2017

Nice shot on the back of my squidmate's head there. If only my aim was that good at a moving target all the time. But wait, I splat the Splatling first try! Nice. I push ahead, brimming with confidence, and the Tower starts coming our way. A really nice Suction ...

Blasted Slosher in Rainmaker (12-8, Blaster)

Sunday, August 13th, 2017

Using the boxes to shield me from the Rainmaker's bursting shield is a pretty good idea. Maybe not so good that it puts me in to the sights of most of the purple inklings, but never mind, lesson learnt. By the time I return, which really doesn't take the long, ...

Carrying the Rainmaker (6-9, Blaster)

Saturday, August 12th, 2017

Holding back a little doesn't do me any favours here, but at least it indirectly gets me to where the Rainmaker is, albeit it heading towards our podium. As my Killer Wail charges bursting the Rainmaker Shield, it seems like a good time to use it and grab the Rainmaker. ...

The Rainmaker's not going far (13-9, Carbon Roller Deco)

Saturday, August 12th, 2017

Sneaking across the gap on Flounder Heights works when the other team isn't rushing to control the objective. To be honest, I'm surprised I'm not splatted from the side when I'm trying to splat the inkling on the ledge. But it just takes a little longer before I'm caught. The Rainmaker ...
