Okay, I've used the N-ZAP before, but not for ages and not for much. It does seem to be my nemesis when wielding the Tri-slosher, though, and with a Sprinkler and Inkstrike, the N-ZAP '89 looks to be a good choice for Splat Zones. I'll take it out for a ...

Continuing my return to shooters, I pick up the Splattershot Jr for a bit. Splat Bombs and a Bubbler should be quite familiar to me, and I launch myself with confidence in to the Splat Zones. Once captured and looking good, I head towards the top, but divert my attention ...

I've been trying some shooters recently, and have had a bunch of quite frustrating battles perhaps as a result. I don't know if I'm just a bit rubbish at the moment, if Splat Zones continues to bring out the more dedicated squids, or if I am just unpracticed with shooters. ...

It occurs to me that I haven't battled with a shooter for ages, preferring instead the less traditional weapons. But I used to, so I'm going back to them for a bit. The obvious first choice is the Splash-o-matic, the first weapon I mained. My strategies don't really change much, ...

It's a pretty decent start to the battle. Despite floundering at the top of the ramp, I get to the Splat Zones in time for an initial splat, and head around the side as my squidmates capture the Splat Zones. All looks good for sneaking here and there, to get ...

Zoom, faster than a Carbon Roller! I head around the side, and turn the corner to surprise another Tri-slosher, and hearing the smack of ink against inkling, continue sloshing to splat a charger too. That should take some inky pressure off the Splat Zones for us. I don't stop to ...

Even without a charger on the other team, I immediately head the long and perilous route to get behind the perch. I find an inkling there and splat him, so it wasn't such a bad idea. If only I could have got out of the way of the stupidly geared ...

Oops, I wasn't sitting down and comfy as the battle was starting, and throwing myself in to my chair disorientates my inkling slightly. But I get myself pointing in the right direction and get to battling. Well, sort off. The Seeker won't go far with the platform up, and spinning ...

I have to hang back a bit as a Carbon Roller Deco, as I don't really project ink, and launching a Seeker makes too obvious a path for me to squid through. Holding back to ink the home turf helps everyone without putting myself at unnecessary risk. Being available to ...

E-litre 3K one way, Tri-slosher the other, and I guess wrong which one splats me. And there's an annoying interloper near our base. I may miss him with my Disruptor, but I do well not to get splatted immediately a second time. I do a bit of tidying up before ...
