Whee, three Rollers! This can't go wrong. It goes well immediately, when the blue team ignore the Seeker trails, allowing me to get one slightly lucky splat, and roll around the container to get a second. The blue Roller eludes me, but is splatted by a squidmate, allowing us to ...

A bit of a pause and a good Disruptor throw gets me in to a great position for some early splats, and I move forwards aggressively enough to get splatted soon after. We have the lead, though. Puddle-hopping my way back looks like it's going to work, but a bit ...

That's a nice Disruptor to start the battle, but I don't count on there being two other inklings supporting the Disrupted one. And we're already being infiltrated by the time I am back in the battle, giving us some housekeeping to perform. At least the Rainmaker doesn't get too far.
I ...

Nope, not one more battle in B+. After that last victory, we had a loss, then magikarp turned up again, on my team no less, stacking another loss. But I wield the bucket with vigour, and I am once again close to being back in the A ranks.
I feel bad ...

My losing streak/skill degradation/poor choices continue, and not even switching to the Tri-slosher can stop my falling in to the B+ rank. Still, I'm confident the bucket can get me back out of there pretty quickly.
I'm helped a little by one inkling apparently trying to tank his ranking, turning up ...

I quite like scoped chargers, mostly when I'm aiming to flank them. They don't know I'm coming until the ink hits, and then it's too late. My position after hitting the E-litre 3K is good for clambering on to the Tower too, as the other purple inklings aren't around. I ...

Ooh, a charger on the other team. Can I surprise her on the usual perch? Nope, doesn't look like she's there. There are inklings beneath me, though, and I have a bucket. My sloshing doesn't quite work out as intended this time. But I get back on the grating to ...

That slightly extended intro seems ominous, but I think little more of it, seeing chargers on the blue team, and make a beeline towards the usual perch. There's a charger there, but they drop, or fall, so I have to give chase. Or wait a moment, and she pops up. ...

Not focussing fully on the Rainmaker's Shield generally helps, as splatting an opposing inkling will reduce the incoming ink from the other team. I get a nice splat in this vein to start the battle, and move up to find a second splat as I hear my ink hit something. ...

That Disruptor throw wasn't too bad a move. Running backwards in to the Splat Bomb was pretty bad, though. Trying to splat the Inkzooka would be a good move, but not when she's on our team, and doing so lets the other team burst the Rainmaker Shield, splatting us both. ...
