I'm still not particularly effective with the Squiffer, but I kinda like it's potential in the right tentacles. As I am still learning, rather than dwell on all the mistakes I make, I think it's good to look at the little things I get right.
Despite the Splat Zones being purple, ...

Well, that Slosher wasn't the target of my Seeker, but I'm thankful he popped up there anyway. Right in the middle of the Splat Zone. Another Seeker just inks turf, which is fine, and the teal team are pushed back, allowing us to capture the Splat Zones. That's a good ...

The teal team makes a good break with the Rainmaker, which either goes unnoticed by my team or they are mostly splatted. At least I don't ignore the objective, hoping someone else takes care of it, because I think it would have been a really quick battle otherwise.
I get behind ...

Oh yeah, straight up the middle with that second Seeker. Nice! I get no splat from an incautious inkling coming over the ledge, but with one on the perch I move towards the corridor to try to get around her. That takes me in to the E-litre 3K, thankfully having ...

Tripping over a squidmate probably works in my favour, as the slight delay lets me get just behind the inklings coming around the corner to splat us. The tables are turned on them! One more splat gets me a starting triple, but I don't get to look for a fourth. ...

Let's try a bit more with a Blaster. The Grim Range Blaster again, because the range and Burst Bombs will probably work better with Splat Zones. The range works to a point, but with blue pressure dominating the Splat Zones early on, I need to get closer. And closer still, ...

I try to keep my range to start the battle, not rushing headlong in to a contested Splat Zone. It keeps me safe, and lets us feel out the initial tussle. When it looks like the yellow team have backed off from the ridge I turn to hit the corridor, ...

It's a pretty decent start to the battle. Despite floundering at the top of the ramp, I get to the Splat Zones in time for an initial splat, and head around the side as my squidmates capture the Splat Zones. All looks good for sneaking here and there, to get ...

Zoom, faster than a Carbon Roller! I head around the side, and turn the corner to surprise another Tri-slosher, and hearing the smack of ink against inkling, continue sloshing to splat a charger too. That should take some inky pressure off the Splat Zones for us. I don't stop to ...

The second Seeker may not hit the gap in the ramp to the middle of Arowana Mall, but a decent flick and some support ink from behind gets me up to the Splat Zones nice and quickly. I hop towards the other ramp, and I'm ideally positioned to flick the ...
