Dual Squelching in Splatfest Ninja

Sunday, June 5th, 2016

I dabble a bit with the Dual Squelcher. It involves shooting my squidmates more than I should, neatly activating the Echolocator when I know I'm about to be splatted, and wondering if I could ever get that good with the Inkbrush. Some nifty manoeuvring gets me a splat on the charger, ...

Super Splat Bomb Rush in Splatfest Ninja

Saturday, June 4th, 2016

After the battle, reviewing the video, I realise that we have a 0-0 inkling. He disappears after 10 seconds and doesn't come back. He was the Tentatek Splattershot, which left us with 3 chargers, an E-litre 3K Scope, a Heroshot Replica, and my Splatterscope. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dJdCMcZRyUs Given our limitations, I think we put ...

Too ruthless Splatfest Ninja

Friday, June 3rd, 2016

That inkling with the Splash Wall is ruthless. I don't think I agree with his methods, however effective they are, but I also think the other side could have got out of their base more easily than they made it look. I leave him to it for the most part, opting ...

Difficult first game as a Splatfest Ninja

Thursday, June 2nd, 2016

Another Splatfest! Let's blast through the battles. To ease myself in to the Ninja vs Barbarian Splatfest, I take my old favourite in to battle, the Splash-o-Matic. I adopt my old techniques too. Half sneaking around the side routes, half running headlong in to trouble. I do try to be a ...

Blundering back'n'forth in Rainmaker

Wednesday, June 1st, 2016

I have a great start to this Rainmaker battle, flushing out some inklings, getting the upper hand on an E-litre 3K user who's Burst Bomb Rushing towards me. I think I get a bit cocky after that. It seems that the Rainmaker has a longer range than the Splatterscope. Good to ...

Somehow turning it around on Rainmaker

Tuesday, May 31st, 2016

E-litre 3Ks, huh? What can you do? Get in to pointless duels with them, apparently. Playing the support role looks to be a good idea, as the other side are keen to keep the turf purple, making their pushes more quick and effective. But one of them isn't expecting me to ...

Muddling around in Rainmaker

Monday, May 30th, 2016

Sometimes, I'm not entirely sure I know what I'm doing. Of course, the start of any Ranked battle is fairly formulaic, and so it goes for this Rainmaker on Urchin Underpass. I even get a nice Splat Bomb splat and Splatterscope double. After that, I'm just making it up as ...

Being sneaky in Splat Zones

Sunday, May 29th, 2016

Or, at least, trying to be sneaky. It's not easy when your ink gives away your entrance, as the Kelp Splat Charger inkling notices. I go back to exact my weak revenge, before trying a different route. A major bit of newb fever hits me for a bit, as I flounder, ...

Decent Splat Zones

Saturday, May 28th, 2016

The Splatterscope is fun, the Splattershot Jr was good, but I'm switching it up again to battle with the Dual Squelcher for a bit, still in Splat Zones. I take care to mind my range, and my surroundings, but can't quite stop a two-pronged attack at the start of the battle. This ...

Splat Zones not going in to overtime

Friday, May 27th, 2016

Switching around the weapons, just for variety, I'm going with the Splattershot Jr in to Splat Zones. I like being mobile and not being predictable, so it's kinda funny when I try a fancy squid/jump/turn to prevent being splatted, only to have a different inkling splat me from behind anyway. Or ...
