Otherwise known as 'pushing my luck'. My plan with the Tri-slosher is the opposite to my plan with the Splatterscope. I go down the other side, across the centre, and around the back. What do you know, it works!
Because my initial plan works, I try it again. And it works ...

I take my usual perch in Arowana Mall when I have the Splatterscope equipped, and aim for the squids in the Splat Zones. I know it doesn't look like it, but I really am trying to aim for them.
There is a messy tussle for the Splat Zones, but they turn ...

It's good to see the ink coming over the brow of the ramp in Arowana Mall. It makes the first splat more rewarding. I've been on the other end of those a few times, and it can make a squid a bit salty. It's good to know how it happens.
That ...

My first Splat Zones battle on Arowana Mall this evening had my forgetting if the extra grates are in this mode, and I went down the middle. The grates are there, so this time I go down the side. It kinda helps, in that I don't get splatted in the ...

I can't lose in Splat Zones tonight! I've won every battle, even when it didn't seem like we were winning. I've got knockouts, when I didn't think we were holding the Splat Zones. I'm getting dangerously close to S Rank again!
Maybe the Tri-slosher is helping me out. I love this ...

The Tri-slosher is really working for me today. I stick with it for Splat Zones, and go with my original strategy on Arowana Mall. Sadly, I get distracted by a possible splat in the Splat Zones, instead of trying to flank down the side, and get splatted by a Slosher.
Back ...

I like Arowana Mall. But instead of using the Splatterscope and sitting on my perch, I'm sticking with the Tri-slosher after its excellent outing yesterday.
And I have a plan for the start of the battle. I will rush the centre, then ignore the Splat Zones and attempt to flank the ...

I've been battling with the Splatterscope mostly out of spite, thinking it would suck me out of S Rank quicker, but I appear to be treading water. Fine, I'll mix it up, so that things don't get stale, and try some new weapons.
And not just my previous weapons, but some ...

More morale-destroying losses in S-Rank Rainmaker follow the previous battle. But I persevere. I have to, or I'll never drop out of S Rank, or never play Ranked battles again.
A decent first splat is followed by inching off my perch. Oops. I exercise caution and don't press forwards to the ...

I'm getting stomped in S Rank again. I could swap to a different weapon, but I'm sticking with the Splatterscope and either going to improve, or going to drop out of S Rank.
Of course, there is a third option of not really improving, but occasionally having a decent battle, and ...
