Well, it's more that other inklings seem much better than me, making me look quite poor in comparison.
I try to do my best, but I seem simply outmatched too often. That, and I am an Inkzooka magnet. Maybe I should learn how to aim that. Or learn how to aim ...

Not a great start to the battle. I miss squidding up the block, then don't realise an orange inkling is right behind me. Looking right down the barrel of an Inkzooka is never good sight either. To top it off, a Kraken jumps over some grating to splat me. I ...

I missed that Splatterscope on the opponents' base before the start. I would have been more circumspect in approaching the tower had I noticed. As it is, I get splatted pretty quickly by her.
New plan: circle around the back. The plan works quite well, but mostly by accident, as the ...

Sticking with the Dual Squelcher, and improvising the start, where I move around my squidmates. I think that Inkbrush is going to be a problem for me, but it seems the Sprinkler is more my nemesis.
I really do try to make use of my weapon's range, when I have it, ...

Friday, September 16th, 2016
We're battling over Splat Zones, so I take the choice of the Dual Squelcher to cover ink and keep me away from trouble.
I make earnest attempts to achieve both these goals, but the turf I ink is mostly out of the Splat Zones, if only because we're pushed back enough ...

After a fair start to the session, everything goes to pot. I try the Splatterscope, Tri-slosher Nouveau, Aerospray RG, and Dual Squelcher all to little effect. The other inklings are just all over me, and I'm getting very frustrated.
I swap back to the Splattershot Jr, my first choice of weapon ...

I didn't mean to drop through that grate, but never mind. You work with what you're given, and at least I didn't fall in to the water. My first splatting is delayed.
Chasing down the Squiffer is maybe not the best idea. In a different battle, the other team dunks the ...

My plan is to go after that Splatterscope at the start of the battle. I think I know a quick way to the perch. My plan works too! I splat the Splatterscope, and get a second splat when moving on. My squidmates even get the Rainmaker and advance it healthily.
Getting ...

I'm eschewing the temptation to equip the Splatterscope initially for Arowana Mall, instead opting for the Splattershot Jr. I should be more mobile and, with the Bubbler, more resilient. If I remember the Bubbler, that is.
I don't mean to pick up the Rainmaker that first time. I was just going ...

Finally, I have a game where I get in to some kind of groove. Sure, I chase the E-litre 3K around for longer than I probably should have (how many times do I have to hit him anyway?), but at least I get rid of his piercing laser beam from ...
