Trying to walk it in, in Rainmaker (9-8, Splatterscope)

Tuesday, October 25th, 2016

Chargers versus shooters in Rainmaker. Not a great match-up, but so it goes. There is a royal rumble in the centre of Arowana Mall to start with, where I also get a nice and lucky splat on the Rainmaker to begin. But so much ink is flying it doesn't look safe. When ...

Doing more with a bucket in Rainmaker (14-9, Tri-slosher)

Wednesday, October 19th, 2016

Okay, I'm swapping the Splatterscope for a different weapon. The Splattershot Jr? No, the Tri-slosher, I think. I'm sure I can do some damage with the bucket. Or I can squid in to the laser sight of an E-litre 3K quite effectively. More precaution needed. So, of course, I spot the ...

Back and forth mayhem in Rainmaker (5-7, Splatterscope)

Wednesday, October 19th, 2016

Tonight's not my night with the Splatterscope. I'm not getting the splats, my aim isn't there. More than usual. I may not be aiming well, but I'm squidding okay. I squid up a neat wall to the Rainmaker to start with, even if I probably shouldn't, but I survive, and get ...

Just about competent in Rainmaker (5-6, Splatterscope)

Tuesday, October 18th, 2016

I'm not really feeling it with the Splatterscope this evening. That should be a hint to swap weapons, but I did want to get back in to practice with the Splatterscope, so I'll persevere for now. Or maybe I should swap to the Splattershot, as that inkling with the rather basic ...

Super splats in Tower Control (8-5, Splatterscope)

Saturday, October 15th, 2016

The Splatterscope is working well for me this session. If it's just a weekend phenomenon, I should at least remember that. Or maybe I am just getting my mojo back. Two lucky splats fall in my lap at around 50", which makes it look like I know what I'm doing. I ...

Unsuccessful charging in Tower Control (10-5, Splatterscope)

Friday, October 14th, 2016

I'm sticking with the Splatterscope, which is my plan for now. Arowana Mall crops up again, which suits me. Off to my perch, and I start pulling my shots. Good stuff! I can hit a Splash Wall, though. I am really enjoying the Splatterscope again. I hope it is because I ...

Returning to the Splatterscope on Tower Control (7-2, Splatterscope)

Thursday, October 13th, 2016

Remember when I used to run around with a Splatterscope, almost exclusively? Yeah, me too. Then I got in to the higher ranks and started getting stomped, leading me to try other weapons. Well, no more! I'm going back to the Splatterscope for a bit, whatever the maps, whatever the ...

Trying my best in Rainmaker

Thursday, September 15th, 2016

After a fair start to the session, everything goes to pot. I try the Splatterscope, Tri-slosher Nouveau, Aerospray RG, and Dual Squelcher all to little effect. The other inklings are just all over me, and I'm getting very frustrated. I swap back to the Splattershot Jr, my first choice of weapon ...

Going for the podium in Arowana Mall Rainmaker

Thursday, September 15th, 2016

I didn't mean to drop through that grate, but never mind. You work with what you're given, and at least I didn't fall in to the water. My first splatting is delayed. Chasing down the Squiffer is maybe not the best idea. In a different battle, the other team dunks the ...

Frantic Rainmaker

Wednesday, September 14th, 2016

I'm eschewing the temptation to equip the Splatterscope initially for Arowana Mall, instead opting for the Splattershot Jr. I should be more mobile and, with the Bubbler, more resilient. If I remember the Bubbler, that is. I don't mean to pick up the Rainmaker that first time. I was just going ...
