Splatting around the Splat Zones (19-4, Carbon Roller Deco)

Sunday, April 2nd, 2017

After revisiting the Splatterscope and Tri-slosher, it's taken me a few battles to remember how to best use the Carbon Roller Deco, but I think it's coming back to me. I take my time inking some turf at the start of the battle, as turf control is vital for the ...

Comedy of errors in Kelp Dome Tower Control (14-5, Splatterscope)

Thursday, February 2nd, 2017

I try to ink the way for my squidmates at the start of the battle, then look for the Splatling again. She's not on the normal perch, and I appear to have fallen and can't get up. Never mind! There's the Splatling, and I pull my shot slightly, letting her ...

Taking charge of Moray Towers Splat Zones (10-3, Tri-slosher)

Saturday, December 10th, 2016

I love Moray Towers. Whether I'm facing chargers, playing a charger, or just running up and down either side of it, I think it's a great map, particularly with the extra blocks. I'm tempted to pull out the Splatterscope, but I think the Tri-slosher should work really well for sloshing ...

Panic sloshing for the win in Tower Control (12-2, Tri-slosher)

Monday, December 5th, 2016

There's something about my first battle of the night if I'm using a Tri-slosher. Or maybe it's just the past few days and not an ongoing trend. Still, I play like an inkling possessed in this battle, like I did in my previous excellent Tri-slosher showing. If only I could ...

Trying to play safe on Tower Control

Tuesday, June 21st, 2016

I'm not too comfortable with the Splatterscope on Urchin Underpass, but as the other map in the rotation is Arowana Mall I am taking a positive can-do attitude to the Underpass today. I don't want to be foolish and push forwards when I don't have to. I ought to provide a ...

Pushing forwards as purple in Tower Control

Monday, June 20th, 2016

Arowana Mall is a great map for a charger. Even when paired with Urchin Underpass int he rotation, I will take the awkward Underpass to play on the excellent Mall occasionally. I get a good number of splats in, and only fall foul of being splatted once, pressing up the map ...

Super Splat Bomb Rush in Splatfest Ninja

Saturday, June 4th, 2016

After the battle, reviewing the video, I realise that we have a 0-0 inkling. He disappears after 10 seconds and doesn't come back. He was the Tentatek Splattershot, which left us with 3 chargers, an E-litre 3K Scope, a Heroshot Replica, and my Splatterscope. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJdCMcZRyUs Given our limitations, I think we put ...

Playing with the S-ranked in Tower Control

Wednesday, April 13th, 2016

I'm on a winning streak in Ranked tonight, bagging a handful of wins in a row. As I quit the lobby for a brief pause, this gives Splatoon the opportunity to pit me against some S-rank players when I return. Okay then. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jLYS7sZ7lcQ The battle goes better than expected, even when I ...

Excellent Moray Towers Tower Control, 20-3 with the Splatterscope

Saturday, April 9th, 2016

My first game of the evening, and it's a belter. Perhaps my best game of Tower Control, and one of my best Ranked battles so far, certainly with a charger. This is the battle that motivated me to make a 'Games of Fame' playlist on YouTube, and a game of ...

Running out of power on Rainmaker

Monday, March 21st, 2016

15-8 with a Splatterscope on Rainmaker? You wouldn't think that my Gamepad's low-battery light came on near the start of the game. Well, except for the excessive spinning of the camera when I try to get the power adapter plugged in between splats. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g0iFr4_9Ff4 I'm glad Saltspray Rig has been fixed/adapted for ...
