I rush forwards, hoping to get up the wall and around the side, but the flow of yellow ink coming towards me as I approach the middle encourages me to hold back. Well, a little. I can use the wall to hide from the Squiffer, and although hiding becomes problematic ...

A super-aggressive start from me, but one that is also somewhat measured. Finding an unexpected path often leads to splats, and being able to sidestep a Splash Wall certainly helps. I'm a little disappointed that I miss the fourth inkling, but it's all good. The yellow team is temporarily out ...

I do like trying to speed to the middle and around the side in Urchin Underpass. Fairly often, like this battle, a Blaster just about catches me in the act, and their indirect fire puts a stop to my efforts. I take a more conventional route to return, inking more ...

I normally take the side route to flank the opposition with a bucket, but can it work with the Grim Range Blaster? Well, just about. It would work better if I could aim, although, to be fair, on review it seems the inkling squids in to the ink the very ...

One inkling is left for dust on the base as the rest of us leave. I'm sure she'll catch up. I'm buoyed by my early splat on the E-litre 3K to think more of it. I do some diversionary inking, but feel no pressing need to head around the back ...

I don't aggressively plunge myself in to a silly situation to start this battle, and I survive more than fifteen seconds. I should hang back and be sensible more often. I send out Seekers to make ink tracks, and try to keep myself safe. We lose the Splat Zones to ...

There's a charger on the other team, so my starting gambit is to head right around the back to see if I can splat them on their perch. She's not on the perch, though, and before I drop down to catch her from behind, a squidmate has done it first. ...

The raised corridor seems to be the best route to take for a charger at the start of Port Mackerel Splat Zones. If nothing else, it inks a vital path for later use, should our Splat Zone come under pressure, and it is a nice place to start the battle ...

Oh yeah, I don't shoot the back of a squidmate's head. I'm learning. At least in parts. I don't think my aim has improved much. But I think I realised why recently, some time after this battle though, that taking my finger off the trigger jolts my aim a little. ...

What's this, I'm not going immediately for the E-litre 3K Scope? Not this time. A bit of caution instead, just working out who is going where. The E-litre 3K looks to be on the normal perch, ripe for a jump-slosh, but if she's good I could be splatted mid-air. Besides, ...
