Kelp Dome is back! I had a quick look around in recon mode, and the changes look positive, and not major enough to confuse me. As such, I take a standard indirect route to the Splat Zones, just to be cautious, and catch a cheeky bugger trying to out-flank us. ...

An early precaution of not inking the Splat Zones but the ramp to the left of me pays off, and keeping to the sides keeps me unsplatted for long enough that the orange Splat Zones turn teal soon enough. We take the lead, and I patrol the edges to try ...

Two Custom Splattershot Jrs and an Octobrush on our team, one Custom Splattershot Jr, an Octobrush, plus a Carbon Roller on the blue team, adds up to a lot of Robo Chickens. And we all like using them. The little automatons start flying as soon as we get close to ...

Trying to sneak around the side before heading up the ramp sort of pays off, but it shouldn't have. I'll take it, though. My two-for-one splat doesn't really help us that much, as it turns out, and the purple team take control. Now I have to be careful heading back, ...

Hitting the flank at the start, with the wall for protection, keeps me safe for a bit, although I don't have much effect on the battle for the Splat Zones. A Robot Chicken is almost my downfall too, as I have to move and, perhaps impetuously, head towards the Splat ...

My first Robot Chicken finds a target, which pleases me, but I don't want the incoming Tenta Missiles to do the same, causing a brief retreat. And despite our good start, the blue team come back to push us out of the Splat Zones quite thoroughly, from the front and ...

I'm wondering where that E-litre 4K will set up, and hit the flank to lob an opportunistic Robot Chicken her way. It doesn't find anything, but moving up to the Splat Zones level finds the telltale shot of ink, and I try to combine Ink Storm and Robot Chicken to ...

Uh-oh, our Rapid Blaster isn't moving. Hopefully it's just temporary, and there's not much to be done but press on. Splatting the Inkjet with my Ink Storm keeps my spirits up early, and although I avoid a Splashdown I run in to the inkling that comes out of it. Heading ...

My Robot Chicken does me proud to start the battle, as I almost get stuck between two inklings. Instead, I get an Ink Storm out of it. I'm also starting out quite sensibly, being mobile, not chasing needless splats, and inking anything I can. Keeping the Robot Chickens flying when ...

Activating the ink rail as a distraction clearly doesn't fool that Octobrush, and I bet that's not the last I'll see of him. I try to be more pragmatic on my return, hoping to neutralise the Splat Zones and dropping down only when there's clear opportunity. But, as happens curiously ...
