I swap to the Splatterscope for some Tower Control sniping. I think about sticking to the standard perches, but quickly discard that to try to be more mobile. Naturally, it doesn't quite work, although at least the splat is mutual.
Going for the perch afterwards bags me two textbook splats, which ...

There's something about my first battle of the night if I'm using a Tri-slosher. Or maybe it's just the past few days and not an ongoing trend. Still, I play like an inkling possessed in this battle, like I did in my previous excellent Tri-slosher showing. If only I could ...

My first Splat Zones battle on Arowana Mall this evening had my forgetting if the extra grates are in this mode, and I went down the middle. The grates are there, so this time I go down the side. It kinda helps, in that I don't get splatted in the ...

Splat Zones on Arowana Mall and Museum d'Alfonsino. I'm tempted to break out the Splatterscope, but I'm having too much fun with the Tri-slosher of late, and I stick with the bucket. I'm still having a lot of fun with it too, staying unsplatted for definitely too long at the ...

Some battles I remember I have a Bubbler. This is one of those battles. A poor showing with the Splatterscope to start with, I swap to the Tri-slosher for Tower Control, thinking I can slosh ink down from above. Then again, I also think I can flank the charger on ...

I'm enjoying the Tri-slosher in Splat Zones tonight! One battle has been a dud, but it was exciting, so I continue. I do like to keep moving forwards. That doesn't serve me too well when running in to a Dual Squelcher, though. Which I do twice.
Still, after those early incidents, ...

More Tri-slosher Splat Zones, this time in Museum d'Alfonsino! I try to remember what extra blocks there are in this mode, and then decide to just find out for myself.
I find a block, get to the opponent's side, and then give a couple of them the runaround for a while. ...

I'm tempted to revert to the Splatterscope for this evening's session, but stick with the Tri-slosher. That should work in Splat Zones, I reckon, and Flounder Heights seems like a good map for it.
Rather than do anything flashy, I just aim to get to the top of the Heights and ...

Somehow I never fully learn that rushing headlong to the objective in the middle of the map at the start of a battle almost always gets me splatted. Of course, there are times that I come out on top, but there are also times when it is better to be ...

There's the usual tussle for turf at the start of this Tower Control battle, along with my inevitable early splatting. At least I take one of them with me, but it's a bit of a pain that my Bubbler charges the moment I am splatted.
I like to think I show ...
