Some more horrid battles follow my one decent one. That's a shame, as it makes my good games feel more like flukes. But I keep trying. I think. Maybe I'm just playing my alotted games before falling out of S Rank.
Here we are on Moray towers, where other Splatterscopes and ...

My losing streak continues. I've tried a bunch of weapons too. One last try to be useful in Splat Zones, and I shall opt for the basic Slosher. It should throw plenty of ink around, and hopefully keep me a safe distance away from trouble, as long as I control ...

Still sticking with the Splatterscope, I have a couple of minutes of Splat Zones before the modes change. As luck would have it, the map that comes up is Moray Towers! Excellent. Of course, that means two chargers on the other team, and they are probably better than me. So ...

Trying to play the objective in S Rank Tower Control against Japanese players willing to stay up beyond 2 in the morning is an exercise in frustration. I am not having fun.
I am close to dropping out of S Rank, though, which may give me temporary respite from feeling completely ...

Back in S Rank, in a lobby filled with Japanese players who are up at 2 am. I am having a terrible time, being matched against players who clearly take this game much more seriously than I do.
I've switched between several weapons and just done horribly in every battle. I ...

I grab the Splatterscope for Moray Towers Tower Control, and then perform quite average on Museum d'Aflonsino for a couple of games, and get stomped when Moray Towers turns up. I should change weapon.
The Tri-slosher is a perennial favourite of mine for Tower Control, and it works a charm again ...

The Splattershot Jr was fun, but it's time for another change. The Tri-slosher is a favourite of mine in Ranked, but I never really got used to it in Turf War. I'd like to give it another try, though.
Sloshing ink down from high on Moray Towers seems like a good ...

The Splatterscope is a great weapon on Moray Towers in the right tentacles. Luckily, for those of us without the right tentacles, we can always fall back on the Splat Bombs, and the Rush Special.
I'm actually impressed that my first two splats are from aiming the Splatterscope, although maybe I ...

Not a great battle for me. That inkling is not going to approach when I'm on my perch, and I miss him when he jumps. And my Splat Bomb throws are a bit feeble. And I am lacking just that little bit of range when I see an Inkstrike being ...

We were two chargers and two Rollers. Not the best combination, but it worked a bit. One Roller drops out, and we get a shooter as a replacement. That feels like it should be better.
I have an opposite number, it seems. A Splatterscope on the orange team who is out ...
