For Great Zapfish's sake, don't retreat with the Rainmaker! (5-8, Splatterscope)

Monday, March 27th, 2017

I'm on quite a losing streak at the moment. I can't make the Carbon Roller Deco work, as we can't hold turf, and I can't do anything outside of inked turf. So I swap weapons, hoping to provoke some changes in my battles. The Splatterscope is perhaps not the best choice, ...

Finishing the job in Rainmaker (3-3, Carbon Roller Deco)

Monday, March 27th, 2017

I'm not having much luck in Rainmaker tonight. I'm sticking with the Carbon Roller, because both Kelp Dome and Port Mackerel should allow for good rolling and seeking. I try to put my Seekers to use in Kelp Dome, which includes basic inking of turf throughout. But Seekers alone don't ink ...

Getting a good headstart in Moray Towers Rainmaker (11-8, Tri-slosher)

Wednesday, March 22nd, 2017

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, ...

The Rainmaker is somewhere (11-8, Tri-slosher)

Wednesday, March 22nd, 2017

I really like the Carbon Roller Deco, but I don't want to forget other weapons. It's back to the Tri-slosher for a bit of Rainmaker. I can be much more aggressive with the bucket, whether or not it works, as I demonstrate. Just rush ahead, inking everything, and splats will ...

Slightly rusty Splatterscoping in Rainmaker (9-7, Splatterscope)

Wednesday, March 15th, 2017

I've been battling with the Carbon Roller Deco quite a lot, and am enjoying it. But with a short session, I think I'll go back to a previous favourite, the Splatterscope. Good choice, with an E-litre 3K on the other team! I'm sure I'll be fine. My first duel with the ...

Comeback kings in Rainmaker (9-5, Carbon Roller Deco)

Tuesday, March 14th, 2017

I get myself in to a sticky spot at the start of the battle. I think a green inkling is going to squid up the wall, but before that happens I get some blasts of ink from behind. I can do nothing else but squid through the grate, which puts ...

Seekers in Rainmaker (11-9, Carbon Roller Deco)

Tuesday, March 14th, 2017

I take so much care to line up my first Seeker, between the containers of Port Mackerel, that I don't notice one already being launched beside me. Never mind, it all helps. I take a bit of time to ink around, which seems sensible, and press forwards when it feels ...

So nearly dunking the Rainmaker (8-8, Carbon Roller Deco)

Monday, March 13th, 2017

I kinda pick up the Rainmaker by accident at the start of this battle. I notice the inkling squidding in the ink on one of the columns on the yellow side, and go to flick him off with my Carbon Roller. To be fair, I do exactly that, but I ...

Manic Mackerel Rainmaker (5-6, Carbon Roller Deco)

Monday, March 13th, 2017

Port Mackerel and Flounder Heights sound great to my run with the Carbon Roller Deco. I bet I can do things in Rainmaker too, particularly with Seekers painting long, straight lines. That is, if I can aim them down the long, straight lines. This is why I take a moment ...

Getting the splats in Rainmaker (14-6, Tri-slosher)

Monday, February 27th, 2017

Back along the side route to start with. I think it can get me to the middle just about as quickly as the centre route, but with a bit of elevation for protection. If only the Rainmaker didn't point my way. I show perhaps a little too much caution on my ...
