Tower Control on Moray Towers means it's Tri-slosher time! I'm learning from other battles that jumping on to the Tower in a depression right in the middle of the map is a bad idea. I'm also learning to look before I leap. I can't remember which ledges are here and ...

Not so slick a start to diving down Moray Towers, but at least I don't fall off the edge. Not that I did that in the last game, nopers. Rather than foolishly head straight in to buckets of ink being thrown at the Rainmaker, I head around inking turf and ...

Tri-sloshing on Moray Towers can often work well for me. Not so much at the start of this battle. My opening gambit goes poorly when a well-thrown Suction Bomb explodes on contact with the Rainmaker's shield, taking me with it.
My return doesn't go much better. Trying to take a slightly ...

Whee! The start of a Moray Towers battle is always invigorating. This time it's made more so by the splatting of a Dual Squelcher that unexpectedly gets in my way of sneaking around the side, followed by the E-litre 3K I was actually aiming for.
A third splat is pretty sweet, ...

I'm not having the best of sessions this evening. My splats aren't landing, and I think in my frustration I am rushing more quickly in to more splats. It doesn't help. But I persevere a little, and try to play more sensibly. It helps when I get some excellent squidmates.
That ...

I think some people don't rate the Tri-slosher on Moray Towers, but I think it can work well. You definitely need to avoid the watchful eye of chargers, but its ability to slosh down from above, and ink walls effectively makes it viable.
I keep our Splat Zones blue to start ...

Whee! Trying to go as fast as possible across the map almost works, but the other team are just fast enough to meet me a little past the middle. At least the splat is mutual. My squidmates grab the Rainmaker too, which is good.
I head a different way from the ...

I've learnt that I can travel down Moray Towers at the start of the battle more quickly with just a short charge of the Splatterscope. That's great! This is also the second battle in a row where I drop off the edge as I get to my perch. At least ...

I've been waiting for Moray Towers to pop up. I played an extra couple of battles on Piranha Pit because of that, not that I minded. I got a tonne of splats in those battles too, and had a lot of fun. But let's see if I can manoeuvre my ...

I love Moray Towers. Whether I'm facing chargers, playing a charger, or just running up and down either side of it, I think it's a great map, particularly with the extra blocks. I'm tempted to pull out the Splatterscope, but I think the Tri-slosher should work really well for sloshing ...
