Seek and destroy in Tower Control (20-5, Carbon Roller Deco)

Tuesday, November 28th, 2017

I will probably never stop trying to get an early jump on the opposition at the start of some battles. The trade isn't so bad this time, but I still feel it could have gone better. Still, I am more measured immediately afterwards, and rely on my Seekers to ink ...

Running out of time in Splat Zones (14-5, Carbon Roller Deco)

Sunday, November 19th, 2017

Maintaining our Splat Zone is a worthy task, but when our squidmates who've headed to the other side don't seem to make it, it seems pointless to only defend. I move around myself, and at just the right time to catch a green inkling coming my way. There's a second ...

Can't finish the Splat Zones (14-4, Carbon Roller Deco)

Saturday, November 18th, 2017

It seems like those Splat Bombs won't stop being thrown across the gap, and I will keep flicking to cover their explosions for the rest of the battle. I'm almost relieved that the Splatling wants to get rid of me. Plus, it's great seeing my squidmate who got around the ...

Teamwork in Tower Control (8-4, Grim Range Blaster)

Thursday, November 9th, 2017

My caution at the start of the battle pays off nicely. I get a splat instead of rushing in to being splatted, I spot the super-jumper coming in and wait for them to hop on to the Tower instead of being the target, and I clear the Tower and splat ...

Slow to the podium in Rainmaker (9-2, Carbon Roller Deco)

Sunday, November 5th, 2017

No green inklings are splatted when the Rainmaker's shield bursts, so it's probably worth hanging back for now. To prove it, I splat the green Rainmaker carrier pretty easily. I move up and get two more splats quickly, although one of them is me, slipping in to the drink. I head ...

Steaming ahead of the Rainmaker (8-2, Carbon Roller Deco)

Saturday, November 4th, 2017

Camp Triggerfish Rainmaker has a great opening move for the Carbon Roller Deco. Release one Seeker to start, a second as soon as your ink tank can, and you'll reach the Rainmaker with one Seeker hitting its shield, a second ready to go, and probably before the other team. I grab ...

Just enough ink in Rainmaker (2-0, Carbon Roller Deco)

Tuesday, October 24th, 2017

I didn't know our Rainmaker carrier was going to head left, although maybe I should have anticipated it. My prospective forward Seeker leaves me with barely enough ink to rush the Rainmaker forwards to start with, but I get enough back to spearhead the push. We meet a little resistance, but ...

Turning the tide in Rainmaker (12-6, Carbon Roller Deco)

Monday, October 23rd, 2017

My opening gambit doesn't work very well, perhaps leaving my squidmates one inkling down letting the green team get the upper hand. Then again, they dominate us for a while, so maybe I'd just have been splatted going along the main corridor. My second attempt doesn't go any better, with ...

Keeping my head in Splat Zones (10-6, Tri-slosher)

Thursday, October 12th, 2017

Everyone's rushing forwards to start the battle. I like this! We zip through our Splat Zone and head down the side, where two blue inklings are coming. I go in beak first, and end up splatted, but I take one inkling with me. The second is splatted by a squidmate, ...

Clearing the way for the Rainmaker (9-1, Tri-slosher)

Sunday, October 8th, 2017

I like this side route on Camp Triggerfish Rainmaker. If you can just squeeze under the gate, you can move around the side quicker than inklings expect, which lets you appear on their flank as rather a surprise. Add a bit of caution, and you can control the centre of ...
