Splat two inklings with the Rainmaker's shield, wait for someone to grab it, then miss them and get splatted from both sides. I'm not entirely sure what my squidmates were doing at the start of the battle.
As always, I could improve my aim, but I have fun with the Splatterscope, ...

Arowana Mall is a great place for chargers. We have two on our team, they have none. But what good is a charger as a suppressive weapon when no one wants to carry the Rainmaker. I suppose I'll do it.
Once I've shown that the Rainmaker is benign, my squidmates have ...

Running around with a charger, maybe I shouldn't be the one who grabs the Rainmaker and gets it close to the podium at the start of the battle. That doesn't stop me doing it, though.
It's a better idea than trying to actually splat inklings with my charger, though. My aim ...

'Secure the Splat Zones' is more of a guideline than an objective, really. I suppose it depends on my mood, my weapon, and what my squidmates are up to.
In this battle, I enjoy getting past the Splat Zones and in to enemy territory, where they probably don't expect me to ...

I had a lot of fun with the Tri-slosher the other day, so I give it another go today. I apparently forgot that the previous Ranked mode was Tower Control, where the bucket is perhaps more useful, but that's okay! Rainmaker is fun too.
I get a bit carried away with ...

I find my Splatterscope works better when my own squidmates don't jump in front of me. Take note, inklings, particularly at the start of battles. Jumping off the base when you have a charger trying to lay a track can be counter-productive.
My charger also works better from a distance. I ...

Another shaky start in this battle of Rainmaker. My aim and our Rainmaker carrying gets a bit better in the middle, but then I'm back to squidding on grates to refill my ink like a newbie.

I manage to get some good splats in still, and although I can't hit a ...

We get a great lead from the start, thanks to a clever inkling managing to sneak along the grating to come down a rather less-used route to the podium.
We keep the pressure on, with the Rainmaker staying in opposition territory, until one of their inklings goes the long away back ...

I had my couple of games with the Splatterscope, and they worked quite well after the Tri-slosher, albeit not quite as fluidly. But just as I am ready to call it a night, I see that I am one win away from being On Fire. I can't leave it like ...

I've had plenty of fun with the Tri-slosher in Tower Control this evening. I swap to the Splatterscope to see if I can continue this trend, or if my first choice of weapon was wiser.
Camp Triggerfish should be friendlier to the charger than the slosher, with its long corridors and ...
