Avoiding the obvious bombs lobbed on to the Tower and then bagging a double-splat is a good way to start the battle. I don't even mind that I'm splatted myself immediately. I don't think I've used a blaster for a while, so this may be as good as it gets. ...

There's not really anyone to aim for, but I'm still speeding to the centre of the Underpass. Maybe I can do something there if I'm not expected, plus I really like moving quickly. I'm fast, but not as fast as my squidmate with the Inkstrike! Blimey. Still, I get a ...

There are no obvious targets for my Tri-slosher on the yellow team, indeed they seem to be good weapons to splat me instead, so I simply build a base of inked turf to work from early in the battle. The yellow team move aggressively towards us, which is perhaps to ...

Heading around the back goes well, with a superb squid-jump off the block, but doesn't really achieve anything. At least I catch up with the Tower to almost help stop its backwards progress. Diving under the Killer Wail was a nice move too. I get more self-preservation manoeuvres working too, ...

Everyone's going the same way! I jink to the left, to the left, to prevent congestion, and hold back a little, as the only charger is a Splatling, and they don't sit on obvious perches for me to slosh over. i catch up and push through some yellow ink to ...

I'm going for that Splatterscope to start with, but end up with a different splat. That's not unusual, and I would have continued to the normal perch, but I instinctively squidded and fell through the grate. I just roll with it, and go for the Octoshot in front of me, ...

Why did I try to squish that Slosher? For the lols, I think, but getting splatted for it makes me feel a bit silly. So when I tidy up after her, and spy her returning, I more sensibly hide and time the flick properly.
Even better, when I spot her ink ...

A speedy N-ZAP is going to cause me all sorts of problems, as my aim is already a bit loose and I need to get relatively close with the Fresh Squiffer. I should probably try to stay out of his way, but that's not so easy when Echolocated. My Cold-blooded ...

I purposely ink the side of the rotating wall, in case I need to squid on it. After bursting the Rainmaker, and avoiding picking it up just to get splatted, I chase the yellow team backwards along a rather more sensible route than just following them, and make use of ...

I'm aiming for the Splat Charger, but I see that ripple in the ink ahead of me, so I turn the surprise around. What I also should have done was not then pursued the Splat Charger once she realised I was there. I became quite an obvious target. I come ...
