I make a beeline to the other side of the map, luckily dodging a Splat Bomb on my way, to find the Splat Charger on his perch, but he's not there. Never mind, a quick inking of the podium, probably pointless, and I hop over the perch to prevent the ...

Mmm, a double-splat from bursting the Rainmaker's Shield. That's a sweet start to the battle. Even better, my untimely Killer Wail actually works out. We have to burst the shield again, but we grab the Rainmaker with a relatively clear run, and make a small push forwards. The Echolocator doesn't ...

I may have burst the Rainmaker's Shield in our favour, and kept it out of teal tentacles, but I clearly wasn't paying attention to my flanks. So it goes. I make up for it, and more, with some supernatural timing. Whoever picked up the Rainmaker must have been wondering how ...

I'm going unscoped again. My first challenge, though, is remembering which button is jump. After adjusting my camera a couple of times, it all comes back to me. It's been a whole two days since I last battled, this isn't easy. My first shot doesn't go so well either, and ...

That's a lucky Seeker splat at the start of the battle. I'm not even sure who it hit or where. Backing that up with a second splat to protect me and the Rainmaker is happy bonus. I push forwards with another Seeker, to ink a line for the Rainmaker, and ...

There's a little flurry of activity around the Rainmaker as always at the start of the battle. I mostly hang back, not wanting to get splatted for nothing, until I see a Splat Roller hide behind the boxes. I ninja squid the other way and flick some ink, getting two ...

This is an interesting pair of team compositions. Rollers and chargers, with one shooter on our team. It's not really what I'd expect to see in Rainmaker, but I'm sure we can make it work. My first splat is mutual, which perhaps I should have made sure of, but flicking ...

After a cautious start, I think I make a decent pounce at a target, but my flicking either isn't quite good enough, or an inkling kitted out for run speed is just a bit too quick for me. I pick my moment well on my return, though, even if it ...

I try to make use of our Splatterscope's ink to go faster, rather than slosh redundant ink. It works to get me closer to the E-litre 3K scope faster. Even though it's the Octoshot Replica that splats me, I'm more concerned about the E-litre 3K and attribute the splat to ...

Trying to jump around the Rainmaker to engage the yellow inklings doesn't quite go to plan, but at least I'm safely knocked to the ground. Or so I think. Maybe a less direct route would be better. A squidmate agrees, although I am now quite aware that the yellow team ...
