There are no obvious targets for my bucket, so I take time inking turf before looking for an opportunity to do some splatting. A strategic Disruptor throw to the obvious perch is a good choice, and following-up gets me an unexpected target on my way to my first choice, who ...

Stopping the Rainmaker is worth the mutual splat, I would say, but it doesn't look like it's going to stop the purple team for long. They come back immediately. I wisely don't approach head-on, and get a good splat to my credit, whilst accidentally falling off the platform helps me ...

I purposely ink the side of the rotating wall, in case I need to squid on it. After bursting the Rainmaker, and avoiding picking it up just to get splatted, I chase the yellow team backwards along a rather more sensible route than just following them, and make use of ...

I'm aiming for the Splat Charger, but I see that ripple in the ink ahead of me, so I turn the surprise around. What I also should have done was not then pursued the Splat Charger once she realised I was there. I became quite an obvious target. I come ...

My first couple of Seekers are a bit wonky, but the third is a peach. I may overshoot my first target in my eagerness, but the peach of a Seeker has my back. I have my front, and then I have the Rainmaker, even if a guiding Seeker doesn't get ...

A bump off a squidmate is a standard hazard when rushing off the base. It doesn't seem to slow me down too much, and I bypass the Rainmaker to greet the purple team with my Carbon Roller. They're not all willing to come over the ridge, though, so I have ...

Good speed to the centre of the Mall lets us burst the Rainmaker free, but it's perhaps not wise to grab it immediately. Still, that brings one inkling forwards to be splatted, and hiding whilst the Rainmaker recharges lets me spot the right opportunity to move forwards for a couple ...

I'm aiming for that E-litre 3K to start the battle with a splat. I get behind the yellow team, and seeing the E-litre 3K is not on the usual perch I move on. I wonder if not inking the podium will come back to haunt me.
I find the E-litre 3K, ...

I don't do well for a while in this battle. Despite stopping the purple Rainmaker, and helping our first push get a pretty good lead, I don't make great choices. I run in to ink, I keep my Seeker Rush going instead of squidding under incoming ink, and, worst of ...

I didn't know our Rainmaker carrier was going to head left, although maybe I should have anticipated it. My prospective forward Seeker leaves me with barely enough ink to rush the Rainmaker forwards to start with, but I get enough back to spearhead the push.
We meet a little resistance, but ...
