Hitting the side quickly, getting a half-decent Disruptor throw, and pausing to avoid a flick pays off nicely to start the battle. Two inklings under my sloshes to start with, and a third who I just about manage to keep out of range from. Heading back towards the Rainmaker sees ...

Oops, I wasn't sitting down and comfy as the battle was starting, and throwing myself in to my chair disorientates my inkling slightly. But I get myself pointing in the right direction and get to battling. Well, sort off. The Seeker won't go far with the platform up, and spinning ...

E-litre 3K one way, Tri-slosher the other, and I guess wrong which one splats me. And there's an annoying interloper near our base. I may miss him with my Disruptor, but I do well not to get splatted immediately a second time. I do a bit of tidying up before ...

We burst the Rainmaker's Shield confidently to start the battle, but trying to clear the rest of the area goes a bit pear-shaped. Still, no one grabs the Rainmaker, not even a purple inkling, and it's there for the taking when I return. I make a move, hit the moving ...

Looks like me and the E-litre 3K are heading the same way to start the battle, and he splats the inkling in front of me. I was probably going to miss my flick anyway, judging by my ambitious flicking from the moving platform, and diving in to the Ink mine ...

Two Rollers per team. Nice! Throwing my first Seeker two inches in to a barrier is a bit less interesting. Ignore that bit. You could probably ignore my running in to a Splattershot too, but that would make you miss my Seeker making the splat mutual.
I go around the side ...

The Grim Range Blaster is quite good fun. I think it's because I don't need to get quite so close to other inklings to be just as bad with a Blaster, which helps me survive more. But I do actually enjoy it. I have a bit of fun at the ...

I've used the Grim Range Blaster before, admittedly, but that was before I had practiced much with the Blaster itself. Now with that practice under my belt, I think I could get some use out of the extra range, and I definitely would like to learn how to use Burst ...

I don't want to press too hard in this battle, as recent battles have just seen me get splatted quickly when it could have been avoided. Hanging back and using my weapons sensibly works quite well to start with, even if it doesn't make us any positive progress with the ...

A little misstep when trying to ink a desk is nothing, and I hop back up to get my bearings. A Seeker gives me a route down to the lower level, where a squidmate inadvertently reveals a Roller for me to splat. I don't push forwards to splat a second ...
