Enjoying a new-found winning streak in A+ Tower Control, I stick with the Dual Squelcher. The side route is best for my range again, but for some reason I don't ink the other squid enough to splat him, and move on to the tower. What a silly mistake.
Whilst a couple ...

I keep going with the Dual Squelcher. Taking the side route for Blackbelly Skatepark should let me use its range, but with no one to splat I immediately ignore my own advice and go for the tower. That gets me splatted.
The opposition get an early lead, which we aren't able ...

I abandon Ranked for Turf War to give the Rapid Blaster a fairer test, but only encounter more frustration. I am not in the mood for continued failure whilst trying to learn a new weapon, so I grab my Tri-slosher and head back to Ranked, to see if I can ...

Nerf OP chargers! Naw, just kidding. They can just be really effective in the right tentacles.
I wish I was as skilled as the chargers on the other team. I know I'm not, because I tried the same thing a few games later with my Splatterscope, and I was a bit ...

I'm not sure if this is a good game or not. One splat, once being splat, not greats stats, but I help keep the turf in the Splat Zones inked. That's the goal, right?

That's all rather brief. Let's have a second battle: Pushed back in Tower Control
Sticking with the Dual ...

My previous Ranked battle pushed me up to A 97 rank. Will this evening see me reach even higher, up to A+ rank? Well, maybe the title of this video gives away the ending.
In this battle, I learn that I can't do a backflip off a wall on to the ...

Tower Control doesn't get much simpler than this. Go to the tower, ride it to the base. It's like Ice Cube telling us what to do.

It's good to see every squid spamming 'Nice!' as we reach the goal.
Let's have a second: Can we make it in Tower Control?
After early forays ...

2-10 with the Dual Squelcher. At least one of those splats was on the Rainmaker, almost on top of our podium, but I'm just feeling like I'm outclassed in Ranked play still. It's difficult to improve when you're suppressed so effectively in many battles.
Still, I seize an opportunity late in ...

The battle starts with our team missing a squid. I think we know which way the battle is going to go, but there's nothing to do but give it the best of British.
We put up a good struggle, given the circumstances, and I even think we have a chance of ...

Bluefin Depot was my bogey level at the start of the evening, getting splatted everywhere by squids almost completely ignoring the tower. Even with my change from the Tri-slosher to the Dual Squelcher, would this change? Thankfully, yes.
The tower was the focus of attention: they wanted us off of ...
