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 ...

I find out in a previous battle that my perch isn't quite as safe from a dedicated Octobrush as I would like. That won't stop me from using it, but in this battle I aim to be a bit more mobile, attempting to hold the centre ground but covering more ...

I found my Splatterscope Splat Zones spot on Museum d'Alfonsino the other day, and I'm going to use it again today. It's useful because I can cover over half the Splat Zone whilst keeping relatively safe, and aware of the main assault channel.
I can't quite stay up where it's safest, ...

When the Kelp Splatterscope splats me from that jump I could never make, I think my number's up, and this battle is over. It doesn't stop me from trying, but I am now quite wary of my distance.
At least my Splatterscope allows me the benefit of shooting to cover some ...

Two shots needed to hit a stationary inkling. Not my finest hour. At least the Splattershot splats me, not the Rainmaker shield, although I was hoping that my Splat Bomb Rush would explode the shield a bit quicker.
I somehow avoid the Kraken, despite my realising a bit late that there ...

I'm sticking with the Splatterscope for this S-Rank foray. It should work in Arowana Mall, at least. Well, in theory, in the tentacles of a good player, perhaps. But I'm riding this one out in as much style as I can, and I notice that I even start this evening ...

Both teams look varied and balanced at the start of the battle, and it will be interesting to see how that works for both of us. I make a bee-line for the Tower, although as a charger I'm not entirely sure why, maybe just because I can supply the ink ...

I know I disparage my aiming skills with a charger quite regularly, but there are some battles where I am really glad of having Splat Bombs as a Sub-weapon.
Of course, it would help if I remembered the basics of being a squid too, so that I don't lie completely outside ...

This battle does not go particularly well for me. I try to keep the turf covered at the start, and take pot-shot at inklings too far from me, and end up getting splatted by a Gal from behind a Splash Wall as I aim badly for his squidmate.
I miss-time a ...

Bluefin Depot offers a nice height difference for a charger, at least until the other team make it across the map. But if you're good enough, you can stop them, right? I stop the Tower's first movement, at least, and one approaching inkling, but the yellow team's progress must be ...
