Note to self: don't shoot the fans on Ancho-V Games when an opponent is on the platform. It only helps them.
The other side gets a really good start, hampered only a little by what looks like one of their inklings perhaps not understanding that the Rainmaker needs to build up ...

That E-litre 3K Scope can easily outrange my Splatterscope, and I have to be careful to avoid his attention. On top of that, some squid keeps lobbing Suction Bombs to my position. I manage to stay unsplatted, though.
A quick repositioning, after avoiding the bombs, gets me in to a better ...

Arowana Mall has been tweaked and is back in rotation. Today it's available in Rainmaker, which works for me!
I take my normal route to the centre, and get a couple of splats for my efforts. As we grab the Rainmaker, I resist the temptation to sit back, and instead press ...

A shaky start is brought under control with some good shots. That encourages me to overreach, and it starts going wrong. But my squidmates are on top of the situation, taking the Rainmaker closer to the podium. I even tag along to get some splats thanks to a Bomb Rush.
I ...

I'm up against an E-litre 3K Scope, which concerns me a bit. And the initial tussle in the middle of the map has a lot of splatting, and none done by me. I hope I can contribute more soon.
I can, kinda, as an irritation to be splatted as the respawned ...

Another good start to a Rainmaker battle on Ancho-V Games. I take out a couple of opposition chargers, and, this time, my squidmates charge forwards with the Rainmaker.
There's a bit of a lull after we lose the Rainmaker, and I get to see how a Killer Wail can combine with ...

I've reconnoitred Ancho-V Games, time to have some fun. I swap to the Splatterscope and head in to Rainmaker.
Ah, I should recon the map for Rainmaker too, as there are some changes. Never mind, too late for that now. Just concentrate on being a good charger.
I think I do quite ...

Three chargers on our team in Rainmaker, three shooters and one blaster on the other.
Yeah, we're not going to do well in this battle.

To be fair, we work quite well as a team. I don't think the chargers hampered us too much, although they certainly don't work as well in ...

Perhaps a poor question to ask with a postitive splat ratio using the Splatterscope on Saltspray Rig. But I'm feeling outclassed in a string of games, and it's making me wonder if I'm just bad.
I'm sure it's a combination of things. Playing with/against better players, not making best use of ...

Not feeling particularly good at Rainmaker with the Dual Squelcher, it's probably not the best idea to switch to the Splatterscope. But whatever. If I want to improve my situational awareness, and get better at dealing with the relative ranges of weapons, it seems like a good plan, if a ...
