Keeping it close in Tower Control (9-10, Tri-slosher)

Saturday, November 5th, 2016

Tower Control on Urchin Underpass and Blackbelly Skatepark. I opt for the Tri-slosher, even though I know I wanted to stick with the Splatterscope until I drop out of S Rank. I suppose I mostly don't want to think I'm bad with weapons I normally enjoy. But on these maps ...

Becoming a Patrick Queen in Spongebob Splatfest (1142p, 4-1, Splatterscope)

Saturday, November 5th, 2016

Enough losses will eventually add up to a decent total. Thankfully, I make it to SplatFest Queen with a victory! One of not many, sadly, but the few scattered here and there have been good to be a part of. This battle goes well for us. I thank my squidmates for ...

Not a bad effort in Spongebob Splatfest (777p, 6-1, Splatterscope)

Friday, November 4th, 2016

Back for another go at the Splatfest, and I return with the Splatterscope after a couple of mediocre battles with the Wasabi Splattershot. If I'm going to get to be Splatfest Queen the slow way, I may as well make it more difficult for myself. I can't get mad with that ...

Inking and inklings in Spongebob Splatfest (1289p, 3-2, Wasabi Splattershot)

Friday, November 4th, 2016

I'm enjoying the Wasabi Splattershot. It's nice to add a new weapon to my choices. I also like Piranha Pit. Having that section off to the side, down the coveyer belt, is very handy for charging your Special, more so if the Special is an Inkstrike that requires no sight ...

Fighting back in Spongebob Splatfest (896p, 5-5, Wasabi Splattershot)

Thursday, November 3rd, 2016

I go for a change of weapon, swapping to the Wasabi Splattershot for a change of pace. This battle goes against us pretty quickly. I don't know what my squidmates are doing, but it probably isn't fair to blame them for the other team being good. We are pushed back to ...

Facing the Kraken in Spongebob Splatfest (1035p, 5-2, Splatterscope)

Thursday, November 3rd, 2016

Inking turf. That's important for a Turf War. When my Splat Bomb Rush charges, I press out from my perch to cover turf with the Bombs, and to flush out any inklings from the other team daring to cross the half-way point. I flush out an inkling, but he's smart enough ...

Stayin' Alive in Spongebob Splatfest (1272p, 3-1, Splatterscope)

Wednesday, November 2nd, 2016

A new day, still the Spongebob Splatfest. I'm back with the Splatterscope, feeling more optimistic this morning. Or just wanting to give it another go. This is my second battle of the session, so clearly I think I can make the Splatterscope work for me, and in this battle I mostly ...

Decent sloshing in Spongebob Splatfest (1171p, 5-5, Slosher)

Wednesday, November 2nd, 2016

A bit of a stalled beginning to this battle for me. Sure, I ink some turf, but I get a bit muddled by bumping in to the ramp, trying to ink walls, and running out of ink. Even trying to ink the box at my feet goes poorly. But it's ...

Turning the battle around in Spongebob Splatfest (1062p, 3-5, Slosher)

Tuesday, November 1st, 2016

Sloshing appears to be working, either in itself or by good squidmates lifting my morale. I almost don't mind that I completely fluff that first jump to the lower leve in Bluefin Depot. I must confess, that isn't the only time it happened this evening. Or this battle. The Slosher works ...

Finally, a positive battle in Spongebob Splatfest (1617p, 4-2, Slosher)

Tuesday, November 1st, 2016

A couple more battles with the Slosher and things seem to be gelling. Finally. I think it's a combination of the weapon and having good squidmates. I stay unsplatted for quite a while, which is impressive. I almost don't want to get in to trouble after the first splatting, in case ...
