I'm trying a new bucket, the Soda Slosher, for Splat Zones. The Slosher has worked well for me in Splat Zones before, and I really just want to try a new weapon.
The Splat Bomb sub is familiar enough, but I've never really got to grips with the Inkzooka. I suppose ...

Switching weapons away from the Tri-slosher to find another I can use effectively has me only going as far as the Slosher. Not a great variety this session, admittedly, but the ability to spread ink over a large area quickly seems like a good feature for Splat Zones battles.
The two ...

Maybe I should only upload the first part of this battle. I think I do rather well, particularly with it being my first battle of the evening. Well, okay, once I find my way around Ancho-V Games Splat Zones again, remembering that dead end.
Splatting that Luna Blaster was good, but ...

A couple of errors at the start of this battle. I miss the jump, and don't register the yellow squid hunkering down getting ready for a super-jump. Still, we get on the tower and take a commanding lead within the first minute or so of the battle. That lets me ...

The battle starts like a typical S-Rank Tower Control battle, with me getting stomped. I'm starting to feel pretty helpless, and on a couple of occasions think about just putting the gamepad down and relaxing. No one gets on the tower for over 40 seconds! Apart from me, and that ...

Time to try a new weapon. It's Splat Zones again in Ranked battles, which seem to be coming up pretty often these days, which means spreading lots of ink around. I could use the Splatterscope, or the Dual Squelcher, or even the Splattershot Jr, but today I think I'll give ...

Ancho-V Games and Mahi Mahi Resort are in the map rotation, so I think I'm in for some Splat Zones. But no! Tower Control! I don't think I've seen Tower Control on either of these maps, so this will be interesting. I equip my Tri-slosher and head in to a ...

More Rollers! After the last game, I am a bit more nervous about facing them. But what could go wrong? I'm not as cocky this time, surely.
First ink to me! A Splat Bomb, but still. Second ink to me! And third! Also Splat Bombs. I swear I can hit with ...

Do I really need almost a minute to get my aim in at the start of battles? At least I can hit the ground, which is what's needed for Turf War.
Once I've hit the ground enough times, it seems I am warmed up, and inklings become fair game.
And I gave ...

Another flirtation with the Splash-o-Matic, and I switch back to the Splatterscope. It's weird but nice how comfortable I am with the charger these days. Comfortable, but not exactly competent. All those missed shots early on, and at close range! And against Barbarians for a change! This is a battle ...
