I'm in B+! This seems like a good time to practice with the Splatterscope. I've not played a scoped charger for a while, so hopefully the zooming won't be distracting, and I think the extra range will be required for bridging the gap across Moray Towers. But there's an E-litre ...

Ooh, we have the firepower in this battle, with three shooters and my bucket against two Rollers, a Splatterscope, and one shooter. This should swing in our favour, unless the charger has elite aim and stops us at range with brutal efficiency.
I take a circuitous route to the bottom the ...

Wait a minute, something's not right. They have an extra inkling! I suspect we're going to lose this battle, but it's good to see us all surge ahead with dogged determination. I try to flank, but am easily spotted and splatted, and already we're on the back foot. But the ...

I'm trying not to get splatting right at the start of battles. It's about time, right? I'm not quite sure what else to do, though, which may be clear. I think what I do is delay how soon I get avoidably splatted. So it goes. I try a bit of ...

This Rainmaker battle starts out pretty normally, albeit with a splat-threatening stutter by me when trying to squid up a wall. I get myself in to a pretty good position, ink a fair path, and get surrounded by the opposition, whereupon I'm roundly splatted. It's good to see my squidmates ...

I make my normal moves on Moray Towers Splat Zones, with the way looking clear, after securing our Splat Zone, to sneak around the side. There are no chargers, so I ignore the perch to wobble my way up behind a Seeker. I'm spotted, though, which isn't much of a ...

I don't rush to the Splat Zones. Our own doesn't get contested quickly on Moray Towers, which lets me ink a fuller path and build more of a Bubbler charge as I move. The Splat Zone is captured easily enough, and with no approaching threat I drop down. A green ...

Tuesday, July 25th, 2017
Sloshing over the Splat Zones seems like the best use of my bucket on Moray Towers, so I tend to take a defensive route to start these battles. That goes well, so I try to get sneaky around the side of the other team. I get around the side, destroy ...

This is a curious Rainmaker battle. Everyone wants to push forwards, but no one really wants to carry the rainmaker. Myself included, really. We get down to the bottom ledge quickly, burst the Rainmaker's Shield, and hold back or flank, but that's fairly standard. Picking up the Rainmaker then is ...

It's a pretty cautious start for me, mostly because I'm not entirely sure how to start a Moray Towers Rainmaker battle with the Carbon Roller Deco. I think I do quite well. At least, my Seekers do. I'm happy to have somehow sneaked underneath the Rainmaker blast too, and make ...
