Flanking the Bluefin Depot Splat Zones

Sunday, June 12th, 2016

Swapping the Splatterscope for the Splattershot Jr, I am aiming to be more mobile, which means I want to flank the opposition. Going the long way around takes time, but if I can get behind the other inklings, the surprise should be worth the effort. My plan goes a bit wrong ...

Turning the Splat Zones pink

Saturday, June 11th, 2016

First things first, orientate myself correctly for the Splat Zones. Bluefin Depot may be rotationally symmetrical, but the Splat Zones are not, and I don't want to rush to the wrong zone again. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HGzS7NN9nD0 An early lead by green is overinked by us. Moving forwards lets me keep the ink pink, but ...

Charger suppression in Splat Zones

Friday, June 10th, 2016

One charger per team. Who will win? We take the lead, and I push forwards to cover more turf. The lead is taken away, and I get too close to an Inkstrike. But I keep my shots mostly on target, staying aware that the E-litre 3K can outrange me. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vTRPM80GxJk Taking back the ...

Somehow turning it around on Rainmaker

Tuesday, May 31st, 2016

E-litre 3Ks, huh? What can you do? Get in to pointless duels with them, apparently. Playing the support role looks to be a good idea, as the other side are keen to keep the turf purple, making their pushes more quick and effective. But one of them isn't expecting me to ...

Good start to Tower Control

Saturday, May 7th, 2016

A few missed shots, just to get my eye in, then I seem to be having a good battle of Tower Control. Keeping my range, using my sub, keeping the opposition at bay. A mere splat by some keen squid won't keep me down, either. And my squidmates actually seem okay ...

Charging to victory in Splat Zones

Thursday, May 5th, 2016

I'm not sure if this is a good game or not. One splat, once being splat, not greats stats, but I help keep the turf in the Splat Zones inked. That's the goal, right? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GAemHDJBPWs That's all rather brief. Let's have a second battle: Pushed back in Tower Control Sticking with the Dual ...

Getting close on Bluefin Depot in Tower Control

Tuesday, March 29th, 2016

Bluefin Depot was my bogey level at the start of the evening, getting splatted everywhere by squids almost completely ignoring the tower. Even with my change from the Tri-slosher to the Dual Squelcher, would this change? Thankfully, yes. The tower was the focus of attention: they wanted us off of ...

Rainmaker mayhem on Bluefin Depot

Thursday, January 14th, 2016

Bypassing the Rainmaker to splat some squids becomes a more obviously good strategy at the start of this battle on Bluefin Depot. It looks clear, so I try to burst the shield, but the opponents catch up with my fast movement and splat me from behind. So it goes. I ...

Rainmaker battle on Bluefin Depot

Monday, January 11th, 2016

Rainmaker is as much about turf control as it is moving the Rainmaker. If your ink covers the turf, you have free movement and your opponents don't. This doesn't help directly with the goal of dunking the Rainmaker, but it denies your opponents access to and movement with the Rainmaker, ...
