Sticking with the Tri-slosher, Camp Triggerfish comes up. Do I slide down the middle, or go around the side? Around the side, I think. It's worked for me before with the Tri-slosher, so let's see how it works out this time.
A bit of caution seems to work for me, letting ...

After the Rainmaker dunking on Camp Triggerfish, I think about calling it a night, ending on a high note, and all that. Instead, I decide to keep playing, but with a different weapon. I choose the Custom Dual Squelcher, hoping I can make some use of the Killer Wail, and ...

A relatively cautious start to this Rainmaker. But, then I shouldn't be in the middle of the action as a charger anyway. Getting hit by that Inkzooka kinda shows that, kinda doesn't given their range.
Another feeble bomb throw, a disappointment after that great one at the start, is easily forgotten ...

I don't see that Suction Bomb that splats me. But never mind, it must have been a good throw. Back to the action, and I get my own lucky splat, right in front of the unclaimed Rainmaker.
A Splat Bomb Rush follows me along the side route, but when I lose ...

Still in S Rank, but wanting to be positive. I have a better string of games in this session too, which is good. Maybe the maps suit me better, maybe the battle mode is key, or maybe I just get more suitable teams. Either way, I'm having fun.
I don't catch ...

I made it to S Rank. I'm not quite sure what to expect, except maybe an increase in skill levels of the other inklings. What I get is a huge increase in skill levels. Splatted by a charger through a tiny gap at the start of the map is unexpected.
But ...

Chargers versus Rollers and Gals. As we're on Camp Triggerfish, we probably ought to win this battle comfortably, as we should be able to control the crossing point at the middle of the map without too much trouble. It will only be the last minute of the battle when the ...

Low-level inklings abound in this Splatfest battle. Lucas is even 1st level! I make a note and try not to be mean, mostly to him, but in general.
Looks like I catch Lucas in my first Splat Bomb Rush, but I also get my intended target (and another inkling) and didn't ...

I've been abusing the Splatterscope, so let's change weapons. On to the Splattershot Jr, another favourite of mine these days.
The Splattershot Jr naturally requires its own strategies. My normal tactic with shooters is to advance quickly, cross to the opponents' territory, and be a pest. But for the Splattershot Jr ...

Stop jumping in front of my charged Splatterscope, dammit. I would blame that faux pas for my not reaching the middle before the Splatling, but that's just silly and a little salty. It's no big deal really.
Neither's that first Killer Wail. To be honest, I could see it coming. The ...
