How best to start a Splat Zones battle on Kelp Dome? Getting to the Splat Zones seems good, and not getting splatted seems better. It's just a pity I can only reliably do one of those.
At least I can splat a slight incautious Splatling, backing in to our side of ...

Starting the Splat Zones battle with a handful of splats is pretty decent! Squidding in to a Suction Bomb less so, but my minor streak was going to end some time. At least my little skirmish allowed my squidmates to ink the Splat Zones and give us a good lead.
I ...

I do like sneaking around the back, don't I? I like to think it indirectly helps the objective. I make a more direct effort this time too, on finding few green inklings around. It's a fair enough lead, and hopefully one we can improve on. I just need to avoid ...

My Tri-slosher speed doesn't quite get me to the side route on Urchin Underpass quickly enough, but I remember my Disruptor and engage the other team on my terms. Then press my advantage unwisely and get splatted. I never learn.
Inkstrikes pepper the Splat Zones as I go beyond them, but ...

I can move pretty quickly with my Tri-slosher. And if I move quickly enough at the start of a battle on Urchin Underpass, I believe I can sneak up the side route. Well, maybe not sneak, as such, as I leave an inky trail, but I can get up there ...

I'm trying out the E-litre 3K for a bit, to get some extra range over the Splatterscope and see if the lack of tunnel vision helps. I dunno, maybe, I'm mostly just feeling the longer charge time at the moment. My trigger finger is aching from urging the 3K to ...

Not a bad start to this Tower Control on Piranha Pit. The Splatterscope isn't where I expect him to be, but I find him easily enough, and catch him by surprise. I even kinda dodge the Splat Bomb he rolls out. I move on to try to stop the Tower, ...

The inklings in my lobby have stuck around for a fair number of battles. Good for them, I say! But it does mean that the chargers have seen the routes I've taken to sneak around the back. It will do me good to shake them up a bit. Or so ...

I'm not too confident about being in the open spaces with my Tri-slosher on Mahi-Mahi Resort. I feel exposed with a short-range weapon, and generally get splatted quickly. The feeling is lessened in Rainmaker, when the action can be concentrated elsewhere, but I still find myself skirting the edges and ...

The battle switches to Rainmaker! Okay, bucket, we can do this. I like Bluefin Depot and have a good relationship with Mahi-Mahi Resort, both maps that I can skirmish on and around. I even start this battle with a good Disruptor throw, even if I don't get the splat from ...
