Time to try out the new weapons! Kinda! I'm sticking with a Splatterscope, and giving the Bento version a go. I kinda see that the Splash Wall can help in short-range situations, and like the Echolocator for a charger a lot. Maybe I can do without Splat Bombs or a ...

I try to both charge my Bubbler a bit and come from an unexpected angle at the start of this Rainmaker battle. I suppose they both work, at least a bit. I catch a purple inkling from behind, not that I get the splat, but I don't get my Bubbler ...

I get splatted a lot without many splats to show for it, but I am in possession of the Rainmaker quite a lot. Maybe that means I can't aim a massive, rushing tornado of inky doom, but whatever.
That E-litre 3K Scope on the other team is quite intimidating too. But, ...

The teams look pretty even at the beginning of this battle. Let's hope it turns out to be a good one. I try to be tactical to start with, using movement and positioning to my advantage, and it works well. Really well. I should do it more often.
And so I ...

Phew, what a losing streak. Down to A Rank, and nearly dropping out of that! I'm not stopping until I win a battle, though, and to that end I equip my trusty Splatterscope. What can I do with it?
I can be oblivious to my flank, that's what. Situation normal. What ...

All looks fairly standard at the start of this battle. A bit of a tussle for control of the turf, one team grabs the Rainmaker and makes progress, the other team tries to claw their way back. But this is not a normal battle.

Nope. The blue team could easily win ...

The Soda Slosher should work well on Flounder Heights, as long as I actually get up to the top of the Heights and slosh downwards. Which I almost do near the start, but after a couple faltering climbs.
At least I survive the initial onslaught, but at what cost? The green ...

I ponder my weapon options for Rainmaker, and decide on the Soda Slosher. Its spread isn't as good as the Tri-slosher, but it has a little extra range, and the Inkzooka should help with inking paths for the Rainmaker. If we ever get the Rainmaker.
One splat in to the battle ...

An E-litre 3K is on the other team. There was one on the other team in an earlier battle, and its range over my Splatterscope was obvious. It was obvious quite a few times, in fact. I hope I can be a better ambassador for the Splatterscope in this battle.
Actually, ...

Okay, I know I'm, not the best charger. Far from it. If you would like more evidence, check out the little battle I have with a better charger from 1'05". Sure, I can manoeuvre quite well, and splat him too, but I never felt in control.
But that's cool! I do ...
