I nearly pull myself up out of A-, thanks to some decent battling. It doesn't look that way, after one knockout defeat and a dropped connection knocks a chunk of points off me, but I was close. I think it's time to pull out the Splatterscope to get some practice ...

I'm not sure what my strategy should be for Moray Towers Splat Zones with the Carbon Roller Deco, either at the start or for any of the battle. I suppose I'll have to make one up. Launching a Seeker down the first ramp and jumping down to be above our ...

I think the Tri-slosher will work well in Moray Towers Splat Zones. I am quite mobile with it, going down or up the other side, and sloshing down in to our Splat Zone should come in quite useful. Indeed, that's how I start the battle, making a bee-line for the ...

Coming up against a a .52 Gal that splats me reliably with one hit, a Carbon Roller that splats me after I splat him, and a Splattershot Jr, of all weapons, that splats me a second after I splat him, I have a stint down in B+. I come straight ...

I was able to redeem my battling, briefly, with the Carbon Roller Deco. I would like to see if I can transfer my new ideals to the Tri-slosher, where I almost can't help but be stupidly aggressive with. I don't think I'll mind if I can't, as I seem to ...

I'm having another run of unsatisfactory battles. It won't get better by my being more aggressive, but by my battling smarter. As if to prove the point, rushing to get across to the other side of Camp Triggerfish merely runs me in to a Carbon Roller with better reflexes than ...

Time to pull out the Blaster again. It has been suggested that practising with the Blaster will improve my battles in general. We shall see. I've also read plenty of people saying that Blasters don't cover enough turf to be effective in Splat Zones. I don't think those people have ...

Back down to A-, after some battles with unstable connections, a couple of disconnects for the full ten-point loss, and just being a bit bad in general. So it goes.
I've had the Splatterscope practice, now time to aim for some splatty action. I like the optimism of the inkling trying ...

Chargers almost demand regular use to stay skilled, so I pull out the Splatterscope again with the hopes of not becoming completely useless with it. Mission successful, I suppose, as I'm not completely useless! Check out that glorious straight line shot out of the base! My Sprinkler throwing could be ...

I've had a string of battles where we've been overrun, and I'm feeling a bit tense. The early splat after an unstable connection warning is not helping. But I keep a stiff upper lip and battle on, for the team.
I shift to a defensive role immediately, and see that we ...
