It battles aren't going well, try a different weapon. Maybe not a weapon you have barely played before and is difficult to learn. But so it goes, and I give the Carbon Roller a try.
I'm not very good with it. How other inklings splat me so easily and reliably with ...

I'm having a rough evening tonight, not really getting in to a groove. Lots of being splatted, not enough splatting. Not feeling I have much agency in my battles.
This battle starts out a little better than others, as I am trying to be more circumspect, but I still get splatted ...

Arowana Mall has been a good map for me with the Splatterscope. But there's one on the other team too. They seem rather more competent than me with the charger too.
I do little at the start of the battle, and the other team get a decent lead that looks tough ...

I would like to try the Splatterscope again for a bit. Tower Control seems as good a mode as any, and the maps seem decent enough, so I equip the charger to see what I can do with it.
I can't do too much, it turns out. My aim doesn't seem ...

Another burst of Tower Control has my breaking out the Blaster. I would like to get better with it, to the point where I am good. I still need to sort out my range more reliably, as is obvious quite early. But I think my manoeuvrability is getting better in ...

Another classic early splatting at the start of a battle, combined with a missed Disruptor. I follow that up by doing it again along a different route. Good job, me.
I try to cheer myself up by looking to neutralise the E-litre 3K a little. I manage it quite well, going ...

It's a good, pointed start to this battle. I see the E-litre 3K on the other team and aim to splat her first. I take the route to the ramp, and up to the overhead walkway, which should let me see which perch she's using.
I pause to slosh down over ...

As we switch to Tower Control, I switch to the Blaster. I quite like it for Tower Control, but I don't really practice it much. That should become obvious quite soon. At least I use the Disruptor with the Tri-slosher. And throw it in to walls a lot with the ...

Back along the side route to start with. I think it can get me to the middle just about as quickly as the centre route, but with a bit of elevation for protection. If only the Rainmaker didn't point my way.
I show perhaps a little too much caution on my ...

It's good to be appreciated for how quickly I can squid my way along uninked turf. Thanks, Squiffer squidmate! It does mean I am at the wrong end of a blaster very soon, though. So it goes.
I try to use the shrubs to my advantage in Arowana Mall. Inklings often ...
