Do I make a good start, or do my squidmates seem asleep? As I push forwards I check my Gamepad, and they are moving, so everything seems okay. Hopefully it doesn't bode well for the rest of the battle.
It's nice to have a decoy for my first flanking effort. They ...

Because I've dropped to A Rank, because the other map for Splat Zones is Bluefin Depot, and because I like the bucket so much, I'm swapping to the Tri-slosher for a bit. The bucket works everywhere for everything.
I'm learning not to rush straight in to the Splat Zones, particularly not ...

I'm still not entirely sure how to start a Ranked battle with the Carbon Roller Deco. Inking my way around away from the objective would let me build up my Special charge, but the Seeker Rush isn't always that effective. But rushing to the objective is pretty tricky to pull ...

I'm going back to the Splatterscope for a bit, just to keep my aim in. As if I have much aim. The Kelp version today, for Splat Zones. The ink coverage and Killer Wail should help.
I try to concentrate on staying safe and sensible whilst providing support, which I can ...

Back to the Deco version of the Carbon Roller. Good for Splat Zones, I would think, and on Flounder Heights. If I get going, that is. I am double-teamed early on, and spend a second wondering how the bloody hell they got up to that side of the Heights so ...

I've seen that Splatling in a few battles now, and a couple on Walleye Warehouse. He always goes for that side of the map and shoots ink out from there. It's worked quite well so far.
Getting mired in ink with the Splatling on one side and a Roller somewhere else ...

I'm going to give this Carbon Roller another bash. But the Deco version this time, for the Seekers. They are probably better for me than the Burst Bombs and Inkzooka, particularly in Splat Zones with Port Mackerel available.
I make a pretty average start. I am, after all, battling in A ...

It battles aren't going well, try a different weapon. Maybe not a weapon you have barely played before and is difficult to learn. But so it goes, and I give the Carbon Roller a try.
I'm not very good with it. How other inklings splat me so easily and reliably with ...

I'm having a rough evening tonight, not really getting in to a groove. Lots of being splatted, not enough splatting. Not feeling I have much agency in my battles.
This battle starts out a little better than others, as I am trying to be more circumspect, but I still get splatted ...

How best to start a Splat Zones battle on Kelp Dome? Getting to the Splat Zones seems good, and not getting splatted seems better. It's just a pity I can only reliably do one of those.
At least I can splat a slight incautious Splatling, backing in to our side of ...
