We have an S+ inkling in this squad battle. He's on the other team, with a Sloshing Machine. I like the ranking system because it pits me against inklings of a similar skill level. I don't much like squad battles (and smurfing) because of how this can subvert the ranking ...

I pull out my bucket to hopefully give myself a boost in squad Splat Zones, and immediately head right around the back of the yellow team. But there's no one there. No matter, I slosh ink around until an inkling appears, and I get a decent jump on the charger, ...

I'm pairing up with AceThunder for some more squad battles, Splat Zones again. I pull out my Carbon Roller Deco, and promptly forget how to jump, landing me in the drink. I hope no one saw that. I remember how to jump soon enough, bagging me my first splat in ...

I'm a little lucky not to get splatted by that Carbon Roller when I first go down the side, but we lose the Splat Zones anyway, my Disruptor misses the E-litre 3K, and I'm too slow with my Bubbler against the .52 Gal. So it goes. To make matters worse, ...

My plan to get quickly around the purple team almost works, right up until I meet the purple team. Maybe I Disrupt one of them, that should count for something. I come back to purple ink blocking our entrance to the Splat Zones, but the Splat Zones at least remain ...

My mood has not lifted much. That last uploaded battle was good, but anomalous, and my losing streak continues. I am now half-way down A-, and still trying to salvage some self-respect with the Tri-slosher. I don't think I'm having bad battles as such, but I'm feeling frustrations stronger than ...

The classic Seeker trail gets me to the Splat Zones quickly, but I don't launch the second soon enough, and run out of ink. I just about escape a Suction Bomb and an E-litre 3K shot, but where are my squidmates? The Splat Zones turn purple. One of them is ...

I can't quite roll right around the back without running out of ink. So it goes for not being able to squid in your own ink trail. The pause lets me take a breath, and decide which way I'll turn. Towards the Splat Zones, I think, as I spy a ...

No Seeker for me to start the battle. I am aiming to head immediately around the side, and don't want to run out of ink as I roll there. I find an inkling coming down the corridor, but as I went right around the side I catch her from behind, ...

Rollers can cover turf pretty well, but they are vulnerable doing so. Going in to the Splat Zones battle with three of them on our team will be interesting. I zoom my way forwards, thanks to a couple of Seekers, and just about avoid the Aerospray's ink to squid up ...
