My luck with the Splatterscope ran out in Splat Zones this session, so I switch to a different weapon. I'm giving the .52 Gal a try, as the Killer Wail should keep the Splat Zones covered, if I ever remember it, and the Splash Wall has shown to be useful, ...

Piranha Pit is such a good new map. The conveyer belts add a dynamic element, there are corners to run and hide around, and perches that give chargers just enough of a view without having them dominate.
The battle for Splat Zones in Piranha Pit works well too. Access to your ...

The Splatterscope turns out to be a good choice to start a session of Splat Zones. Getting a decent perch in Saltspray Rig certainly helps, and keeping on the move to avoid being splatted is generally a good tactic.
I can't say I stay out of trouble, though. A couple of ...

This is what happens when you don't have The Boss on your side. And when you're a bit crap.
Running headlong in to shooters isn't a great tactic normally, less so when you've got a Tri-slosher equipped. And Blasters are just annoying anyway, with their indirect fire.
I nearly splat The Boss, ...

I don't take the side route to the tower this time, but a more direct route. It takes me through a grate, and I'm not sure this is the quickest, but not getting to the tower immediately may have been a blessing. The Splash Wall and barrage of ink coming ...

The Boss is aptly named for an inkling. Nine splats to no losses, which means he keeps his distance well. But he also maintains a good anchor point for the rest of us to super-jump to. You can't ask for anything else from a charger, and is an excellent example ...

There is an awful lot of mutual splatting in this Tower Control battle on Piranha Pit. Or, at least, I get splatted when I also splat an inkling, even if it's not the inkling that splats me. It makes for a frantic battle of splatting and respawning. It also means ...

I can't believe that the other team is consistently much better than my own, so I have to conclude that I really don't have my mojo about me this evening in Splat Zones. I swap weapons for something more familiar, in a bid to get my mojo back, but even ...

Not a particularly outstanding battle in Splat Zones, maybe because I'm trying yet another new weapon for me, the .52 Gal. Its Splash Wall has always got me in trouble when on the receiving end, and the Killer Wail seems like it would be good in Splat Zones. Needless to ...

I'm really enjoying Tower Control on Piranha Pit. It's a fun map, and although probably over half of the map isn't being used for this Ranked mode, I don't think that really matters. Ride the Tower, get to the base. Keeping the tower centralised helps concentrate the battle and prevent ...
