Dealing with a camping Roller in Tower Control

Saturday, September 17th, 2016

Not a great start to the battle. I miss squidding up the block, then don't realise an orange inkling is right behind me. Looking right down the barrel of an Inkzooka is never good sight either. To top it off, a Kraken jumps over some grating to splat me. I ...

Where is the tower in Tower Control

Saturday, September 17th, 2016

I missed that Splatterscope on the opponents' base before the start. I would have been more circumspect in approaching the tower had I noticed. As it is, I get splatted pretty quickly by her. New plan: circle around the back. The plan works quite well, but mostly by accident, as the ...

Being useful at last in Tower Control

Tuesday, September 13th, 2016

Finally, I have a game where I get in to some kind of groove. Sure, I chase the E-litre 3K around for longer than I probably should have (how many times do I have to hit him anyway?), but at least I get rid of his piercing laser beam from ...

Trying my best in Tower Control

Tuesday, September 13th, 2016

I'm having a rough session in Tower Control tonight. I swap away from the Splatterscope to the Tri-slosher, just hoping to be more useful. Or, at least, more direct. All that really happens is that I get hunted by an N-ZAP, and not for the first time this evening. Maybe ...

Dominating Moray Towers in Tower Control

Monday, September 12th, 2016

Let's take the battle to the opposition! I'm not sitting on that tower in the middle of Moray Towers whilst an E-litre 3K hovers over me. I'm not even going to sneak up on him the normal way. I'm going the long way around. It kinda works. A fellow inkling makes ...

Outmatched in Tower Control

Monday, September 12th, 2016

Moray Towers is one of the maps, which means I want to give my Splatterscope an outing. It's a positive start, with an early splat a bit too typical of a cheesy charger, but the situation goes downhill quickly, as it only can do on Moray Towers. The opposite team makes ...

Last-minute effort in Tower Control

Thursday, September 8th, 2016

I'm sticking with the Tri-slosher. I've used it before mostly for riding the tower and raining ink down from there. But recently I've used it to be more aggressive in distracting and splatting the opposition, to mixed effect. I like it as a weapon, though, which is the main thing. I ...

Just too late in Tower Control

Thursday, September 8th, 2016

Oh dear, an E-litre 3K on the other team. This will pose problems for me, and all of us really. I should try to do something about her. So that's my initial goal. I get a bit lucky in sneaking under her radar to get up the side, and although she's ...

Keeping up in Tower Control

Wednesday, September 7th, 2016

I'm not going to forget my Bubbler quite as much in this battle as the last. It would help if I could charge it as much as the last battle too, but never mind. As long as I make good use of it, that's fine. This battle is a bit hit-and-miss ...

I'll remember my Bubbler at some point, Tower Control

Wednesday, September 7th, 2016

I know I have a Bubbler as my Special. It's partly why I choose the Tri-slosher as a weapon. But somehow I forget I have it occasionally in battle. I also used to forget about the Disruptor Sub-weapon, or think it was any good. But enough inklings have used the Disruptor ...
