In Tri-slosher versus Slosher, no one wins. But I'm apparently not convinced of this, so give it another go. Okay, I'm convinced. I probably ought to be concentrating more on the Tower too, what with it being dangerously close to our base.
Thankfully, I get my act together and start battling ...

I do like sneaking around the back, don't I? I like to think it indirectly helps the objective. I make a more direct effort this time too, on finding few green inklings around. It's a fair enough lead, and hopefully one we can improve on. I just need to avoid ...

Not a bad start to this Tower Control on Piranha Pit. The Splatterscope isn't where I expect him to be, but I find him easily enough, and catch him by surprise. I even kinda dodge the Splat Bomb he rolls out. I move on to try to stop the Tower, ...

I'm starting to feel the pressure and frustrations of S-Rank battling again, where I'm getting splatted and splatted with little to show for it. I try to compensate by playing smarter, but it seems I'm not that smart after all.
I try to use my Disruptor well, and not charge headlong ...

I enjoy the Tri-slosher and Splatterscope so much I forget that the Blaster can work well in Tower Control. I sometimes remember, though, and tonight I give the Blaster an outing. I use its explosive ink to bag a couple of splats at the start, although ink from above gets ...

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 ...

I'm close to getting back in to S Rank, so I choose the Splatterscope for tonight. I'm not exactly hobbling myself, as I can have decent battles with the Splatterscope, but I am more likely to have a decent battle and still be in a losing position. Sue me, I ...
