The Tri-slosher has been working well for me in tonight's Splat Zones. I wondered if I would prefer the Splatterscope for Walleye Warehouse, but decided I could do well with the bucket there, and might prefer it on Flounder Heights. Of course, the Tri-slosher has worked wonderfully on Walleye Warehouse. ...

I think going around the side would let me surprise some green inklings almost whenever I play Flounder Heights. And, to be fair, it does to start with. I push further forwards to splat the charger, but when I get to her perch she's gone.
Of course she's gone, the Tower ...

No chargers on the other side to try to harass, or get splatted by. Let's see if I can flank the purple team for some surprise splats, by going down the side route.
Well, kinda, only helped by my ineptitude at squidding up Flounders Heights. Sloshing ink over my head, walking ...

An E-litre 3K on our team, along with my Splatterscope. With her longer range, I'll let her take the normal perch overlooking the Tower, if she wants it. Then again, with three chargers on the other team, maybe this will be one of those chaotic battles where you can't rely ...

I wonder where that E-litre 3K will plant herself? Hmm. Hey, good guess! Better first shot would have been nice, as well as a bit of situational awareness afterwards. But that first splat against the E-litre is worth it.
I also ignore my earlier advice to hang back and provide support ...

After my earlier battle, I try to learn from my mistakes. I want to stick to perches and hang back, rather than charge forwards in to positions that put me at a natural disadvantage.
That's not to say I can't or shouldn't move forwards as circumstances permit. Indeed, I try to ...

I swap to the Splatterscope for some Tower Control sniping. I think about sticking to the standard perches, but quickly discard that to try to be more mobile. Naturally, it doesn't quite work, although at least the splat is mutual.
Going for the perch afterwards bags me two textbook splats, which ...

I'm tempted to revert to the Splatterscope for this evening's session, but stick with the Tri-slosher. That should work in Splat Zones, I reckon, and Flounder Heights seems like a good map for it.
Rather than do anything flashy, I just aim to get to the top of the Heights and ...

Phew, what a losing streak. Down to A Rank, and nearly dropping out of that! I'm not stopping until I win a battle, though, and to that end I equip my trusty Splatterscope. What can I do with it?
I can be oblivious to my flank, that's what. Situation normal. What ...

The Soda Slosher should work well on Flounder Heights, as long as I actually get up to the top of the Heights and slosh downwards. Which I almost do near the start, but after a couple faltering climbs.
At least I survive the initial onslaught, but at what cost? The green ...
