I can get to the Tower on Hammerhead Bridge pretty quickly as a Carbon roller, but as a Carbon Roller I'm not sure that I should be getting there quickly. Still, that Seeker does a good job, I avoid a Suction Bomb, and we take an early if insignificant lead. ...

I head for the flank to get behind the orange team immediately, and am glad that the Inkbrush moves a bit faster than me, putting her around the corner and somewhat unaware of me initially. From there, and a little conscious of how many orange inklings have been splatted, and ...

I look to hit the blue team's flank initially, but seeing the flurry of activity in the middle of the map changes my mind, particularly as my angle of approach looks good. I get a nice direct hit on one inkling, and can squid under the sight of the Splattterscope. ...

Oops, in trying to keep my forward motion up whilst blasting, I jump in front of the charger. That's exactly what I don't like when battling with a charger, so I'm sorry about doing that. I'm aiming to hit the perch on our right, though, where the range of my ...

I'm trying the Grim Range Blaster in Tower Control, hoping to get the hang of the Burst/Blast combo. Judging by the start of the battle, I need more practice. I still haven't quite worked out the utility of Burst Bombs on vertical surfaces either, but I'll get there. Just as ...

The Slosher can slosh more than my Tri-slosher. That's fair enough. I have to wonder what my squidmates have been up to, as there wasn't that much inking to be heard at the start, and no ink along the right corridor on my return. I'm sure they were busy, though. ...

There's lots of jostling behind my Seeker as we race to the Tower. I can't blame that for my second Seeker not making its way through the plant pots. It's a tight line. As my squidmates look to control the centre of the Mall, I push the Tower a little. ...

Straight out of the gate with my Seekers, and it's a good aim with the second to get between the plants up the ramp to the Tower. One squidmate takes some ink to the beak, but I drop off to the side and splat the two green inklings who have ...

It's the third battle in a row where I'm facing the same Grim Range Blaster on the other team, with my own Grim Range Blaster. I got some decent direct hits on her in the last battle, so the squidbagging she gives me in this battle is some well-deserved and ...

My aim at the Tower is maybe a bit too on-point, as hitting the column may be a central hit, but it doesn't help with the blast. Two indirect hits clear the Tower eventually, though, and then I'm back dancing with the Grim Range Blaster from the previous battle! We're ...
