I try to ink the way for my squidmates at the start of the battle, then look for the Splatling again. She's not on the normal perch, and I appear to have fallen and can't get up. Never mind! There's the Splatling, and I pull my shot slightly, letting her ...

Inking the way is one of the tasks of the charger, I believe, so I try to do that as much as possible. Another task is splatting chargers on the other team, and although I'm a tad late I manage to spot the Splatling and take some pressure off our ...

That other charger is splatting my cloaca, and barely giving me time to aim a shot. The battles so far have my getting maybe one splat, and being splatted a whole lot more. It's kinda depressing.
At least in this battle I get a few more splats, which I can be ...

It seems I can barely lose at the moment. That's good for my esteem, not so much for my staying out of S Rank for a bit longer. Still, I had a good run, all the way down to the bottom of A-, in fact.
I have a good run in ...

The Blaster has been working for me in Tower Control, and I'm happy to give it another outing. It's the basic Blaster again, as maybe the Killer Wail can come in handy, as well as the Disruptor, if I remember it. I also need to remember not to run straight ...

Back to the Tri-slosher for some end-of-session fun. I make a mistake at the start, forgetting that it is falling where time is lost as a squid, and that I should be inking then. Instead, I ink on the great, and squid to fall. Silly me. But I don't pursue ...

Some battles I remember I have a Bubbler. This is one of those battles. A poor showing with the Splatterscope to start with, I swap to the Tri-slosher for Tower Control, thinking I can slosh ink down from above. Then again, I also think I can flank the charger on ...

Chargers versus chargers in Splat Zones. Not surprising given the maps are Kelp Dome and Camp Triggerfish. It's my first weapon of choice too, although I remain in S Rank and am still clearly out of my league.
My superb skill deficiency is shown early in the battle, where I think ...

I haven't given up on the Octobrush, but am moving between weapons to have a more familiar end to the session.
The Splattershot Jr doesn't go as well as I'd hope, so I go back to the Soda Slosher, which I recently added to my inky arsenal.
The frist splatting is a ...

A losing stream has me plummetting down the A+ Rank. That makes it time to try a new weapon! A brush, I think, and the Octobrush Nouveau looks like a decent option. I'll give it a go.
Of course, I take it out to Sheldon's trial zone first, but even though ...
