Blackbelly Skatepark. I don't know how my charging skills will fare on this map, but I'm sure there is potential.
I remember a decent perch as we start and make my way there, moving on as required, and bidding a hasty retreat when it starts going pear-shaped. At least I survive ...

New tactic for Blackbelly Skatepark Tower Control. My Tri-slosher can get me to the tower really quickly, but I have been doing that in each game this session so far. Instead, I aim to outflank the opponents from the start. It would help if I knew how to squid. Or ...

A bit of a runaround on the tower to start with, as an N-ZAP chases me. Neither of us really wins. Even during that short time, there is blue in everywhere on our side of the map, which is a situation I think needs correcting.
Having inked the turf purple, I ...

Trying to ride the tower immediately on Blackbelly Skatepark is disrupted by finding a Suction Bomb where I want to be. Pausing only has me awkwardly fall from the central column, where I am splatted without getting a splat myself. Not the greatest start to the battle.
My next splat is ...

I dunno how I don't splat that Roller as he's squidding up the central column before he gets to splat me. I can only assume my ink is sloshing down and hitting a different inkling. It gets me a little salty, though, which is only made worse when hit by ...

I get to the tower nice and quickly again on Blackbelly Skatepark, but my sloshing of ink doesn't bag me any splats this time. Because of that, I divert in to support mode and try to ink routes and distract or splat the purple inklings. Which, this time, lets the ...

A rush to the tower with my Tri-slosher, slosh ink down from above to clear the way behind me, and have some excellent squidmates to pick off the stragglers.
It all looks like this is going to be too easy. This calls for a 'Nice!' Which is when I get splatted, ...

Tower Control on Blackbelly Skatepark and Flounders Heights. It's a good day to break out the Tri-slosher!
Unlike other amps, Blackbelly Skatepark is a good place to go directly for a ride on the tower, particularly with the Tri-slosher. The tower is at the highest point of the map, letting the ...

We're battling over Splat Zones, so I take the choice of the Dual Squelcher to cover ink and keep me away from trouble.
I make earnest attempts to achieve both these goals, but the turf I ink is mostly out of the Splat Zones, if only because we're pushed back enough ...

Note the pause after the Splatterscope charges. No one jumps in front of me this time, good. I get to my favoured perch and start with a splat! Then completely miss a relatively easy target.
Back to some splats and good self-preservation, and a decent shot from the ground up to ...
