There's an E-litre 3K on the other team. That could pose a problem for us if he sets up on the standard Flounder Heights perch.
My plan is to flush him out and give my squidmates a chance to get the Rainmaker anywhere near the goal.
I think my plan works. Sure, ...

I stick with the Splatterscope for now, thinking I can at least splash a lot of ink around the Splat Zones. Well, it doesn't look like I can face off against a fellow charger, not from the first encounter. Still, it was one of her squidmates sneaking up on me.
My ...

More Turf War! The Splattershot Jr for me this time, with my natty new hat. I'm looking pretty fresh, this is going to be a good battle.
I ink turf to ink turf, but also to charge my Special. Once charged, it's up to the top to engage the pink team. ...

Let's have a game of Turf War. I'll stick with the Splatterscope, because why not?
Of course, because it's Turf War, the focus is on inking turf, so instead of rushing to the centre of the map, and any objective there, I start by inking turf. Good tactic!
I get enough ink ...

Three chargers on our team in Rainmaker, three shooters and one blaster on the other.
Yeah, we're not going to do well in this battle.

To be fair, we work quite well as a team. I don't think the chargers hampered us too much, although they certainly don't work as well in ...

Not feeling particularly good at Rainmaker with the Dual Squelcher, it's probably not the best idea to switch to the Splatterscope. But whatever. If I want to improve my situational awareness, and get better at dealing with the relative ranges of weapons, it seems like a good plan, if a ...

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 maps in rotation are Port Mackerel and Flounder Heights. Both rather different. I could use the Splatterscope on the Port, and a Tri-slosher at the heights, but we don't get to choose the map out of the two. I plump for the Tri-slosher to start with, the Nouveau version ...

The Dual Squelcher may have a good range, but it's not as good as a charger. In the right tentacles, a charger is a good suppression weapon, and these squids have the right tentacles.

And in the next battle, after a shaky start, I get to the top rank with a ...

A new lobby gets me a new squidmate to enjoy. Golo may not be that harmful, but he gets himself in to good positions and definitely causes a nuisance. I think I like him.

But the squids in the next battle are mostly newsquids, and I feel guilty for staying so ...
