Holding back a little doesn't get me in to much trouble to start with, which is a nice change, and I even get a good splat. All looks clear, so I ride the Tower, my squidmates coming along when they can, but even though I see the Splat Bomb and ...

Look at all that rapid shooting capability on the other side. I fear for my mostly untested lack of ability with the Fresh Squiffer, but nu kör vi! And here we do go, with a sweet first splat against a squid flat on the Tower. To be honest, having the ...

It's a good and hectic start to the Splat Zones battle. We capture our Splat Zone, it comes under pressure, and the containers mean we don't know if the pressure is coming towards us or from the side. But neither do they. I like pushing up to splat the Squiffer, ...

I start on the right, so I head down the right. But I get splatted immediately so often for heading to the other Splat Zone that I sometimes try to be a bit more careful, so I turn towards our Splat Zone when I hit the main area. It's good ...

Starting on the right of the base sends me to the right corridor. And back to the left to help with the Splat Zone, as it turns out. I stick by the Splat Zone area for now, sending Seekers up the corridors to ink paths here and there for easier ...

Point Sensors are flying everywhere at the start of the battle! That's not good for me as a Carbon Roller, but neither is trying to compete against the range of, well, most other weapons. I don't last long. The yellow team dominate the Splat Zones. I decide to go the ...

Well, that Slosher wasn't the target of my Seeker, but I'm thankful he popped up there anyway. Right in the middle of the Splat Zone. Another Seeker just inks turf, which is fine, and the teal team are pushed back, allowing us to capture the Splat Zones. That's a good ...

I'm slipping out of S Rank, for which I am grateful. Some times it can't come too soon, sometimes I feel mildly competent enough. Starting this battle makes me feel somewhat competent, even though the first splat is a lucky one. I follow it with a fairly decent splat, although ...

No one's really going for the Tower at the start of the battle. That's probably wise, though. Personally, I'm on the grating because it seems like the best place to be with my Blaster, particularly as I'm lacking a reliable way to ink walls. My positioning pays off too, getting ...

I'm never quite sure what to do on Hammerhead Bridge. Straight down the middle doesn't seem sensible, but it's so skinny that hitting the sides rarely works. So, straight down the middle, just under the Tower, and hopefully pop up to splat an inkling. It nearly works!
I give chase to ...
