The green team push up pretty aggressively to start the battle, and I feel a bit impotent against the two-pronged approach. That isn't helped by a mistimed jump/Seeker throw that does nothing. At least I time my jump in to the Killer Wail a bit better, although it's frustrating to ...

I can get to the Tower on Hammerhead Bridge pretty quickly as a Carbon roller, but as a Carbon Roller I'm not sure that I should be getting there quickly. Still, that Seeker does a good job, I avoid a Suction Bomb, and we take an early if insignificant lead. ...

A Seeker or two to start the battle and get the ink flowing works well. Trying to squid up the rotating central plinth goes less well, and is a bit embarrassing. I don't really know how I'm not splatted off it either, but it's good that I both survive and ...

It's a pretty cautious start for me, mostly because I'm not entirely sure how to start a Moray Towers Rainmaker battle with the Carbon Roller Deco. I think I do quite well. At least, my Seekers do. I'm happy to have somehow sneaked underneath the Rainmaker blast too, and make ...

Trying to be conscientious about the objective doesn't go too well for me at the start of the battle. To be fair, I don't think flicking over that ledge is a good move for a Carbon Roller. I should remember that. I get lucky not being spotted dropping down the ...

We burst the Rainmaker's Shield confidently to start the battle, but trying to clear the rest of the area goes a bit pear-shaped. Still, no one grabs the Rainmaker, not even a purple inkling, and it's there for the taking when I return. I make a move, hit the moving ...

It's a decent start to this battle. We move up smoothly behind a Seeker, capture our Splat Zone, and I hold it as my squidmates aggressively push for the other Splat Zone. They get it too, maybe not for long, but it's a good move.
I get a lucky splat with ...

Lots of rollers! And a little shoal of squids on the way to our Splat Zone. The blue team has made a good push to get there too, and I find myself trading Seekers with another Carbon Roller. I take care she doesn't follow behind a Seeker, and clear up ...

There's lots of jostling behind my Seeker as we race to the Tower. I can't blame that for my second Seeker not making its way through the plant pots. It's a tight line. As my squidmates look to control the centre of the Mall, I push the Tower a little. ...

Straight out of the gate with my Seekers, and it's a good aim with the second to get between the plants up the ramp to the Tower. One squidmate takes some ink to the beak, but I drop off to the side and splat the two green inklings who have ...
