Sometimes you want to ride the tower. Sometimes you just want to disrupt your opponents, so that someone else can ride the tower.
This is one of those battles where my squidmates are happy to ride the tower, and the Blackbelly Skatepark map allows me to completely outflank the other team.

That Custom Hydra Splattling is quite a threat in the right suction cups. I like to think my Tri-slosher is too, but maybe not always in my tentacles.
The normal tussle at the start of the battle does their way before we're able to assert our presence on the tower. And ...

After seeing that I can make the Tri-slosher work on Camp Triggerfish Tower Control, I'm going to keep on using it.
Spurred on by my previous success, albeit with some less succesful games in-between, I take a more pro-active tactic of preventing the enemy from controlling the tower, by splatting them ...

Camp Triggerfish is not a great level for the Tri-slosher. But the other map is, Blackbelly Skatepark, and Tower Control is a good mode in general for the Tri-slosher, so I'm ready to have buckets of fun.
Riding the tower is always fun. So is getting a triple-splat, closely followed by ...

I vie for control of the tower at the start of the battle, wrest it out of two purple inklings suction cups, and do my best not to let go.
Ink management is not my strong point, it seems. Neither is noticing purple inklings behind the tower when I'm trying to ...

Uh-oh, does that E-litre 3K want my normal perch? Probably, as it's a good place for a charger. I get there first, though, and thankfully put in a good show for myself, splatting the first three squids that come over the top of the ridge.
The E-litre, on the other hand, ...

Two chargers on our team, two on their team. That generally means I need to shake up my tactics, mostly to prevent the two of us stumbling over each other's tentacles.
I try to be a bit more mobile in this game, a tactic that often doesn't work with a charger, ...

I'm not sure I knew what was happening half the time in this Tower Control battle. Shoot some ink, keep your turf your colour, and squid away from trouble.
All I can say from this and the other recent battles on Urchin Underpass is that I'll try not to get salty ...

After the normal tussle in the middle of Arowana Mall, the other team gets a really good lead, nearly reaching their goal. A better-aimed Killer Wail may have pushed them to a knockout victory too.
We have a difficult task ahead of us to get the victory. But some good coordination ...

I do my bit to hold the centre of Arowana Mall against the push of the opposition, and only when it looks clear and the tower available do I try to advance the objective. That, naturally, gets me splatted.
Back to holding our position, and as I do I note the ...
