Back with the Tri-slosher for a bit, and although there is no charger on the other team I am still keen to get to the middle of Arowana Mall and see if I can sneak around the back.
Well, I was keen, but I have a change of heart and think ...

After nearly dropping out of A-, I have a couple of good sessions and rise back in to A, and now A+. That makes me feel a bit better about my gameplay.
I am only doing okay in A+, though, and can't say I'm doing well. I get the feeling that ...

The Blaster has been working for me in Tower Control, and I'm happy to give it another outing. It's the basic Blaster again, as maybe the Killer Wail can come in handy, as well as the Disruptor, if I remember it. I also need to remember not to run straight ...

Someone will need to take care of that E-litre 3K on the other team. I like to do that sort of thing myself, so ignore the Tower and head around the side to try to sneak up behind the charger. Not even a blaster will slow me down.
It's hard to ...

Can I get around the back of the purple team without being spotted? And if I can, what disruption can I cause? Well, I can, but that's because they're moving the Tower. Not a bad sacrifice if we can splat them all and have more time for ourselves on the ...

Share your squidmates' ink at the start, rather than slosh yours indiscriminately. It can make a big difference. It gets me to the extra block nice and quickly, a bit quicker than an envious squidmate, and I get to go around the back.
Sure, the purple team grab the Tower, but ...

I like to think I can squid down the centre of Arowana Mall pretty quickly, but those bumps seem to get in the way and slow me down. For that reason, the side routes seem more attractive, although with more visibility and vulnerability when reaching the centre. Particularly from chargers ...

I'm still keen to rise above A-, which means concentrating a bit. I don't think it means 'equip a Blaster', but I did quite well with one the other day, and am happy to get better with the weapon. I opt this time for the basic Blaster, as the Killer ...

I go one way, but bump in to inklings. So I go the other way, and bump in to inklings. Never mind, the start is nearly always chaotic. Disrupting the Rapid Blaster easily makes up for any early hiccup, including not splatting in the incoming super-jumper.
I try out-flank the inklings ...

Ancho-V Games is a fun map, but not one that benefits my rushing in to the centre. I try instead to build up the charge on my Bubbler, and then toss that idea out of the window and get stuck as the platform rises, putting me in a crossfire.
Not a ...
