Tonight's not my night with the Splatterscope. I'm not getting the splats, my aim isn't there. More than usual.
I may not be aiming well, but I'm squidding okay. I squid up a neat wall to the Rainmaker to start with, even if I probably shouldn't, but I survive, and get ...

I'm not really feeling it with the Splatterscope this evening. That should be a hint to swap weapons, but I did want to get back in to practice with the Splatterscope, so I'll persevere for now.
Or maybe I should swap to the Splattershot, as that inkling with the rather basic ...

Rainmaker, on Bluefin Depot and Arowana Mall. I'm sticking with the Splatterscope, as the stages are good and I've been doing pretty well. Let's hope I can keep it up, in the face of an E-litre 3K.
No, not really. She out-ranges and out-skills me, and my reactions aren't quick enough. ...

Let's see if I can make amends for the previous battle. Not by splatting that Roller, it seems. Not until he stands stock still for me, anyway.
Desperate to do better, I grab the Rainmaker as soon as it is available and dash for the opposition turf. Of course, that doesn't ...

It's not a bad loss, we just lose in a way that is really bad for me. But that's closer to the end, really.
I wonder what my strategy is for Mahi-Mahi Resort Rainmaker as the battle begins. Ink turf, aim for inklings, wing it in finding safe perches, I suppose.
The ...

I decide which side to flank based on the side of the podium I start on for this battle. I can't help but pause for a splat, though. Once I'm back on track, I flank effectively, although maybe without splats.
The splats come from a second flanking move, once I work ...

I'm sticking with the Tri-slosher. Maybe I should re-introduce more weapon variety, but I like the bucket quite a lot. I'm also sticking with my plan to flank the opposition early and often.
I don't catch out an inkling quite so easily this battle, and although I disrupt him it is ...

Monday, October 10th, 2016
My first battle of the session, and I am already thinking about flanking the opposition and being a disruption. It works quite well to start with, although that first splat had the inkling perhaps lacking a little awareness. The following two were just my good positioning, though.
I make a poor ...

More Tri-sloshing on Rainmaker, this time in Museum d'Alfonsino. I try for a falnking manoeuvre again to start with, after a previous battle that reminded me of the extra blocks, and it nearly works. I get a splat, but it's mutual.
I like the route, though, so I tend to use ...

Pretty much this whole match is an accident. I want to jump past the Rainmaker to get a splat or two and slow down the opposition, but I get bumped to the side.
Sure I get a splat, but not the way I wanted. Not inking the wall properly doesn't work ...
