Supporting from the back in Tower Control (16-6, Kelp Splat Charger)

Tuesday, November 21st, 2017

Shooting an inkling in the back may not be honuorable, but it clears the Tower and gets me a good first sighting splat, and is leagues better than my first Sprinkler throw. My second splat is pretty good in and off itself, encouraging me to move forwards a bit to ...

Not forward enough in Tower Control (13-2, Kelp Splat Charger)

Monday, November 20th, 2017

Check out that Sprinkler throw! I mention it not just because of how beautiful it is, but because it really isn't worth seeing many of the others during that battle where I actually try to aim. I don't retreat to a safe perch, but push forwards, spurred on by previous ...

Defensive mode in Tower Control (11-2, Kelp Splat Charger)

Sunday, November 19th, 2017

I'm back in B+, and I may as well use my time here to practice my probably rusty charger skills. In fact, they are clearly rusty, and this isn't even my first battle with the Splat Charger. This is why I need to practice. At least I can ink turf, ...

Charging to the goal in Tower Control (5-1, Kelp Splat Charger)

Thursday, October 12th, 2017

Two chargers per team. This should be interesting. My first engagement starts with a nervy shot from me and him, but I get my second shot off just before his, and get a decent splat that boosts my confidence. I check the other direction, and help push the other charger ...

Asserting my turf in Splat Zones (4-1, Kelp Splat Charger)

Wednesday, October 11th, 2017

I head to a decent perch for my Kelp Splat Charger, and immediately ignore the Splat Zones. I assume my squidmates know what they're doing, so I start trying to control the channels visible to me, to prevent purple ink from coming in. This obviously doesn't sit well with at ...

Finding my position in Splat Zones (8-3, Kelp Splat Charger)

Tuesday, October 10th, 2017

I aim more to the left than I want, so that I don't shoot a squidmate's head, but none of them jump, which is good. My first Sprinkler throw is a little off, but as they don't bounce they're not easy to aim. The second hits its mark, and I ...

Too many chargers in Tower Control (8-6, Kelp Splat Charger)

Tuesday, October 10th, 2017

Phew, three chargers on our team, plus a Roller. Not a great composition. But look at the other team too, three E-litre 3Ks and a Hydra Splatling! This will be unpredictable. I can at least say with confidence that normal Tower Control tactics won't be applicable, so I'm just going ...

Dodging ink in Splat Zones (6-2, Kelp Splat Charger)

Thursday, September 28th, 2017

I do my bit as a charger at the start of a Flounder Heights battle and ink the short-cut up the building. A Sprinkler thrown across the gap probably won't last long, but it will impede purple progress slightly. I look for possible wall climbers from the side, but the ...

Holding my turf in Tower Control (18-3, Kelp Splat Charger)

Thursday, September 21st, 2017

I only hit the back of one head to start the battle, which isn't bad. I don't aim for a perch, dunno why, and just hit the floor, keeping back to hold turf as a good charger should. My first splat is to avenge a squidmate's splat, which probably saved ...

Wail be me in Splat Zones (5-3, Kelp Splat Charger)

Sunday, September 17th, 2017

The raised corridor seems to be the best route to take for a charger at the start of Port Mackerel Splat Zones. If nothing else, it inks a vital path for later use, should our Splat Zone come under pressure, and it is a nice place to start the battle ...
