Specials make the Rainmaker (4-1, Carbon Roller Deco)

Monday, November 27th, 2017

I'm not sure where the green team are at the start. Maybe they can't race against Seekers. It gives us a nice opportunity to sneak an early lead. Maybe I shouldn't have let the Rainmaker go ahead alone, and I probably could have done better diving down at the Dual ...

Against the tide in Rainmaker (22-10, Carbon Roller Deco)

Monday, November 27th, 2017

It's all a bit chaotic at the start. That last Seeker hitting the bricks doesn't help, letting the blue team get the advantage on the Rainmaker's shield, and I have to duck back to avoid the explosion. The blue ink that flies everywhere stops me squidding over the crest, and ...

Seeing orange in Rainmaker (17-7, Carbon Roller Deco)

Sunday, November 26th, 2017

My good start goes awry fairly quickly, as I fail to squid up a small ledge, throw a Seeker in to a wall, and get disorientated. Running out of ink doesn't help, but somehow I survive all of this to get splatted by running in front of the Dual Squelcher. ...

Back to A- with some hits and misses in Tower Control (13-4, Tri-slosher)

Tuesday, November 21st, 2017

I'm glad that E-litre 3K isn't a perfect shot. It makes up for a messy start. And the lick of ink that hits my back warns me to turn around, which helps, although I'm a little disappointed someone has got to the E-litre 3K before me. But only a little. ...

Trying not to chase splats in Tower Control (15-6, Tri-slosher)

Wednesday, November 8th, 2017

No splats for my initial rush, and leaping in to the air probably wasn't a wise decision. I make a good comeback, at least, saving one squid for later with a Disruptor, as my Bubbler charges to keep me safe. And I even hop on to the Tower to recover ...

Sloshing in the Mall in Tower Control (13-6, Tri-slosher)

Wednesday, November 8th, 2017

My speed lets me get a neat double-splat to start the battle, but I can hear another inkling below me. I think I'm being smart to dive over the top away from the ramp, but I only jump in to a bomb. Our E-litre 3K is already a rock for ...

Sloshed to dust in Tower Control (7-0, Tri-slosher)

Tuesday, November 7th, 2017

Zoom, down the middle, and up around the side, aiming to find and splat the E-litre 3K. I run in to the Dual Squelcher, but don't let him stop me, and even splat him so hard he disappears in a puff of dust. That's bad news for the yellow team, ...

Hits and misses in Splat Zones (12-5, Fresh Squiffer)

Saturday, November 4th, 2017

That's a nice early splat, with good and stable aiming, which bolsters my confidence. I miss the next shot, but it was against a flying squid, and I got close enough that I'm still impressed with myself. Our early lead is lost, but it's still really early and that's not ...

Getting support in Rainmaker (7-3, Carbon Roller Deco)

Saturday, October 28th, 2017

My first couple of Seekers are a bit wonky, but the third is a peach. I may overshoot my first target in my eagerness, but the peach of a Seeker has my back. I have my front, and then I have the Rainmaker, even if a guiding Seeker doesn't get ...

Sneaky Carbon Rollering in Rainmaker (5-0, Carbon Roller Deco)

Friday, October 27th, 2017

A bump off a squidmate is a standard hazard when rushing off the base. It doesn't seem to slow me down too much, and I bypass the Rainmaker to greet the purple team with my Carbon Roller. They're not all willing to come over the ridge, though, so I have ...
