A clear run with the Rainmaker [7(1)-0, Carbon Roller]

Sunday, December 10th, 2017

Aww, I deny my tenacious little Autobomb a splat by getting it myself. But it's a pretty good start to the battle, and I grab the Rainmaker to give us an early lead. I think I'm getting a better grip on the new model Rainmaker, and I use it quite ...

Jumping past to help the Rainmaker [6(1)-2, Carbon Roller]

Sunday, December 10th, 2017

I'm sure I had a plan at the start of this battle, but who knows now what it was. At least the monitor saves me from the Rainmaker shield, and my Autobomb finds a target, but I struggle to get enough ink to splat the Rainmaker running past me. I get ...

Back to picking on chargers in Splat Zones [11(2)-1, Carbon Roller]

Saturday, December 9th, 2017

Who goes straight to the Splat Zones these days? Not me! Well, not in this battle. I head around the side, looking for the charger. But he's not on the perch. I hear him firing, though, and looking down sees an opportunity. I'm still getting the hang of what seems ...

Nearly clawing back the Splat Zones [19(5)-6, Carbon Roller]

Saturday, December 9th, 2017

I'm a little slow moving forwards to start with, mostly because when everyone rushes I tend to get splatted for no reason. This doesn't happen this time, but the purple team also capture the Splat Zones. Still, I can throw an Ink Storm over the Splat Zones, and move up ...

Chaotic Rainmaker [22(2)-9, Carbon Roller]

Friday, December 8th, 2017

I hold back a little to start the battle, as the Carbon Roller is a bit weak without a good helping of ink. It serves me well, though. I catch one inkling trying to flank us, and I get to support the Rainmaker from behind, carried ably by a squidmate. ...

Getting the splats in Rainmaker [16-7, Carbon Roller]

Friday, December 8th, 2017

I think I'm almost faster with the Carbon Roller now that there is the vertical flick instead of the Seeker. That doesn't help me much when my decisions are still a bit poor. Also, the vertical flick is not as good against the Rainmaker as the standard horizontal flick. By ...

Dunking the Rainmaker [13(1)-5, Carbon Roller]

Thursday, December 7th, 2017

Okay, I like this vertical flick, and I think I'm getting the hang of it. It's great for inking a path, which the Carbon Roller really needs now that it's lost the Seekers. I do like the Autobombs, though. I just wish I could get to grips with the normal ...

Cheeky rolling above the Splat Zones (7-4, Carbon Roller Deco)

Monday, August 7th, 2017

I find my Seekers work better when they are aimed straight down the corridors. They also get the occasional splat that I simply don't expect. I'd turn to find out which Seeker it was, but a Luna Blaster is getting close, and that's kinda dangerous. A missed flick or two ...

Don't fear my Inkzooka, or do, in Tower Control (12-2, Carbon Roller)

Sunday, March 5th, 2017

More Carbon Roller fun, this time with the vanilla version. I don't think the Seekers would work too well on Hammerhead Bridge, and maybe the Inkzooka would. Then again, I've seen Seekers used here, and my aim with the Inkzooka leaves a little to be desired. But let's see what ...

Learning the Carbon Roller in Splat Zones (5-3, Carbon Roller)

Friday, March 3rd, 2017

It battles aren't going well, try a different weapon. Maybe not a weapon you have barely played before and is difficult to learn. But so it goes, and I give the Carbon Roller a try. I'm not very good with it. How other inklings splat me so easily and reliably with ...
