I hold my position against an encroaching yellow inkling on the far side of our Splat Zone. She's pretty insistent too. I feel like pressing the issue, but that doesn't work so well. I probably should have enjoyed the stalemate, given that it would have kept the yellow team effectively ...

Let's try a bit more with a Blaster. The Grim Range Blaster again, because the range and Burst Bombs will probably work better with Splat Zones. The range works to a point, but with blue pressure dominating the Splat Zones early on, I need to get closer. And closer still, ...

I try to keep my range to start the battle, not rushing headlong in to a contested Splat Zone. It keeps me safe, and lets us feel out the initial tussle. When it looks like the yellow team have backed off from the ridge I turn to hit the corridor, ...

That Disruptor hits someone, I can hear it. But I don't stay to admire my throw, as my bucket can't reach far enough to do much across the gap. I press on, and throw a Disruptor ineffectively in to some netting, maybe contributing to my getting splatted.
I take the side ...

It's a fairly normal start to the Camp Triggerfish Splat Zones battle with my Tri-slosher. My Disruptor even hits an inkling, and I have enough time to squid past a Suction Bomb in my way. But capturing our Splat Zone has my back towards some approaching inklings, and although I ...

A good position and some Disruptors lets me take a cautious stance to start the Splat Zones battle, which is probably wise, given that the Splat Zones in Bluefin Depot being at the lowest point probably makes them a literal Splat Zone. And when I'm ready, I drop down, and ...

Heading around the side for some quick flanking action works better when I don't flop against some uninked wall. Even so, there's no one at the top when I get there. I decide to go even further around the side, and bump in to an inkling immediately, and we dance ...

Going one way hits a Suction Bomb, so I turn back to gain some height. That gets some ink some way across the Splat Zones, but my little bucket doesn't have enough reach. Dropping down isn't a bad idea, but getting hit with an Echolocator just as I do it ...

I've been tempted to use the Squiffer, to see if I can. Naturally, I can't to start with, and as the weapon requires better aim than a blaster and is less safe than a longer-range charger, I'm not sure I'll ever be good with it. But maybe I can bring ...

I quite like this side route to the top of Flounder Heights with the Carbon Roller. It gets me in to position quickly and offers a nice long stretch of turf for my Seekers. And, yeah, maybe I get confused about that inkling being on my team, but you have ...
