My proximity to hitting A- again was short-lived. But after a couple of losses, a couple of victories gets me close again. I was going to head off-line, but instead I pull out the Carbon Roller Deco for one last battle this evening, trusting in it to help me back ...

A pause for inklings to jump out of the way, and off to the centre of Kelp Dome. A Sprinkler on the top seems like a good idea, but when my shot against the E-litre 3K misses, maybe the Sprinkler on that perch will slow her down a little. Moving ...

In retrospect, that Slosher is not fully on the base at the opening of the battle. I doubt I thought anything of it at the time, and I took the weird glitching to perhaps be an artefact I'd not seen before, because of map, mode, and weapon combination. I think ...

I'm in B+! This seems like a good time to practice with the Splatterscope. I've not played a scoped charger for a while, so hopefully the zooming won't be distracting, and I think the extra range will be required for bridging the gap across Moray Towers. But there's an E-litre ...

The Splat Zones are around here somewhere. Actually, I think I went past them. Never mind, I've found a charger to splat, and I slosh the back of the Roller as our Roller splats him too. A Blaster is hitting me from below, though, so I back off, which is ...

We have an S+ inkling in this squad battle. He's on the other team, with a Sloshing Machine. I like the ranking system because it pits me against inklings of a similar skill level. I don't much like squad battles (and smurfing) because of how this can subvert the ranking ...

I pull out my bucket to hopefully give myself a boost in squad Splat Zones, and immediately head right around the back of the yellow team. But there's no one there. No matter, I slosh ink around until an inkling appears, and I get a decent jump on the charger, ...

I'm pairing up with AceThunder for some more squad battles, Splat Zones again. I pull out my Carbon Roller Deco, and promptly forget how to jump, landing me in the drink. I hope no one saw that. I remember how to jump soon enough, bagging me my first splat in ...

Going around the back could be said to be ignoring the objective, but it is normally good for getting splats, and splats can often help advancing the objective, as long as your team is in control. Thankfully, a squidmate grabs the Rainmaker and pushes as I come up behind the ...

My first Seeker isn't great, hitting the wall on the ramp, but once I have enough ink for the next it carries me past the Rainmaker, where one inkling doesn't expect me, and the other doesn't react quickly enough.
As a squidmate carries the Rainmaker, I indulge in some mutually assured ...
