Heading around the back goes well, with a superb squid-jump off the block, but doesn't really achieve anything. At least I catch up with the Tower to almost help stop its backwards progress. Diving under the Killer Wail was a nice move too. I get more self-preservation manoeuvres working too, ...

Everyone's going the same way! I jink to the left, to the left, to prevent congestion, and hold back a little, as the only charger is a Splatling, and they don't sit on obvious perches for me to slosh over. i catch up and push through some yellow ink to ...

I'm going for that Splatterscope to start with, but end up with a different splat. That's not unusual, and I would have continued to the normal perch, but I instinctively squidded and fell through the grate. I just roll with it, and go for the Octoshot in front of me, ...

Why did I try to squish that Slosher? For the lols, I think, but getting splatted for it makes me feel a bit silly. So when I tidy up after her, and spy her returning, I more sensibly hide and time the flick properly.
Even better, when I spot her ink ...

A speedy N-ZAP is going to cause me all sorts of problems, as my aim is already a bit loose and I need to get relatively close with the Fresh Squiffer. I should probably try to stay out of his way, but that's not so easy when Echolocated. My Cold-blooded ...

I purposely ink the side of the rotating wall, in case I need to squid on it. After bursting the Rainmaker, and avoiding picking it up just to get splatted, I chase the yellow team backwards along a rather more sensible route than just following them, and make use of ...

I'm aiming for the Splat Charger, but I see that ripple in the ink ahead of me, so I turn the surprise around. What I also should have done was not then pursued the Splat Charger once she realised I was there. I became quite an obvious target. I come ...

My first couple of Seekers are a bit wonky, but the third is a peach. I may overshoot my first target in my eagerness, but the peach of a Seeker has my back. I have my front, and then I have the Rainmaker, even if a guiding Seeker doesn't get ...

A bump off a squidmate is a standard hazard when rushing off the base. It doesn't seem to slow me down too much, and I bypass the Rainmaker to greet the purple team with my Carbon Roller. They're not all willing to come over the ridge, though, so I have ...

Good speed to the centre of the Mall lets us burst the Rainmaker free, but it's perhaps not wise to grab it immediately. Still, that brings one inkling forwards to be splatted, and hiding whilst the Rainmaker recharges lets me spot the right opportunity to move forwards for a couple ...
