I think going around the side would let me surprise some green inklings almost whenever I play Flounder Heights. And, to be fair, it does to start with. I push further forwards to splat the charger, but when I get to her perch she's gone.
Of course she's gone, the Tower ...

My decline in rank seems inexorable. I thought I could sacrifice some points by practicing new weapons and easily gain them back, but once I hit A- it seems that I am stuck here. Even turning to my trusty Tri-slosher doesn't seem to help, as I lose battle after battle, ...

I'm riding out the Custom Blaster until Tower Control ends. It won't be long. But I will probably try the Blaster again, maybe even the Luna Blaster at last, given my performance tonight.
I start by trying to come right around the back of the other team. I would say it ...

I'm doing a bit better with the Blaster. Nothing great yet, but I still have to find my range. It doesn't help when battling against a Custom Range Blaster, but not realising it's a Range Blaster until you're blasted by it. I should stay a bit further back from that.
As ...

I didn't really give the Roller a long outing when I tried it. Afterwards, my sessions were short and I reverted to what I know. Still, I've set aside some time and plan to give the Roller more of a shot.
Then I see it's Tower Control, and am reminded how ...

I think that E-litre 3K has a bead on me as I dash to cross the middle of Arowana Mall. Surely he's seen me, and will be waiting for me to try to sneak up behind him. But it looks like he missed me, with the ease I slosh ink ...

Do you see the E-litre 3K on their team? Me too. That's my target, because she'll be critical in a Tower Control battle on Arowana Mall. My first aim is to get across the map as quickly as possible and try to splat her early, give us a chance to ...

No chargers on the other side to try to harass, or get splatted by. Let's see if I can flank the purple team for some surprise splats, by going down the side route.
Well, kinda, only helped by my ineptitude at squidding up Flounders Heights. Sloshing ink over my head, walking ...

I go back to the Tri-slosher for a couple of battles, because I normally do well with it on Piranha Pit and Flounders Heights. Seeing the Splatterscope on the other team has my making my opening gambit of flying over the conveyer to engage it, but she's hanging back a ...

An E-litre 3K on our team, along with my Splatterscope. With her longer range, I'll let her take the normal perch overlooking the Tower, if she wants it. Then again, with three chargers on the other team, maybe this will be one of those chaotic battles where you can't rely ...
