Doing just enough in Rainmaker (13-6, Carbon Roller Deco)

Monday, May 15th, 2017

I'm not sure why I have trouble finding puddles of my own ink, but I still do. That's okay, as it's obvious and just a little adjustment is needed so that I can recharge my ink tank and launch a Seeker. The first is a bit of a dud, seeking ...

Some splats in Rainmaker (13-6, Tri-slosher)

Monday, May 15th, 2017

I wasn't taking a look around as the battle starts, my cat had just brought in a mouse and I managed to get it isolated and safe before rushing back to my Gamepad. I didn't miss much, and I don't get splatted by the Rainmaker's Shield. A little to-and-fro with Point ...

Bombs be my downfall in Splat Zones (10-2, Carbon Roller Deco)

Sunday, May 14th, 2017

Coming up against a a .52 Gal that splats me reliably with one hit, a Carbon Roller that splats me after I splat him, and a Splattershot Jr, of all weapons, that splats me a second after I splat him, I have a stint down in B+. I come straight ...

Still going down in Rainmaker (14-4, Carbon Roller Deco)

Sunday, May 14th, 2017

My rank continues to drop, so I swap out away from practicing with different weapons and head for my favourites. It doesn't really help. That is, my battling gets more reliable personally, but I can only do so much. Still, I love the Carbon Roller Deco, and I love ...

Splatty Rainmaker goes nowhere (14-5, Tri-slosher)

Saturday, May 13th, 2017

I see that Hyrda Splatling, and stupidly think it's a good idea to find and splat them immediately. So it goes that I run in to a Nozzlenose. Dunno how that happened. I see how my next splatting happens, though. I have a great idea to ambush an Inkzooka from ...

Doing what we can with an inkling down in Rainmaker (12-5, Tri-slosher)

Saturday, May 13th, 2017

Look at me go! I do enjoy my bucket. It also lets me slosh the Rainmaker's Shield from safely behind a wall. Not that it matters this time, as our green ink overwhelms the purple, and it is a purple inkling who feels the splat as a result. I'm so ...

Inking the way for the Rainmaker (7-4, Tri-slosher)

Friday, May 12th, 2017

It's always good to get close to the Rainmaker as soon as possible, but rarely good to get next to it as soon as possible. So I get close and decide what's going on first. Bumping in to a rolling squidmate makes me think the way ahead can't be too ...

Being a bit better in Tower Control (13-4, Carbon Roller Deco)

Friday, May 12th, 2017

I've had another run of mediocre battles. I am simply losing my chill, forgetting what I'm trying to learn. I realise this and resolve to do better. I think I achieve that here. I lay down some ink and pause to assess the situation. I get a bit lucky getting ...

Splats but no success in Tower Control (16-8, Blaster)

Thursday, May 11th, 2017

I'm still trying to improve my battling skills with a regular foray with the Blaster. I think it's working to some extent, but I often forget what I'm trying to do and revert to charging ahead hoping to get some splats. That's part of my battling I need to work ...

Sloshing all over the Splat Zones (7-0, Tri-slosher)

Thursday, May 11th, 2017

I was able to redeem my battling, briefly, with the Carbon Roller Deco. I would like to see if I can transfer my new ideals to the Tri-slosher, where I almost can't help but be stupidly aggressive with. I don't think I'll mind if I can't, as I seem to ...
