Going past the Splat Zones

Saturday, October 8th, 2016

I'm clearly in the better team in this battle. I don't honestly think I can say that I make a difference. Sure, I make a pretty good start, getting some splats, staying safe, laying down an Inkstrike, but it's my squidmates who press the advantage. I think it's going pretty well, ...

A little sloshing in the Splat Zones

Saturday, October 8th, 2016

Still in S Rank, playing a little later. STILL there are Japanese players, now up after 5 am. Sure, this is obviously the kind of dedication I put in to my games. Whatever, I'm feeling a bit fresher, the ranked battle is now over Splat Zones, and I think a ...

Skirmishing in Splat Zones

Tuesday, October 4th, 2016

My not-quite-a-rampage worked well in the previous battle, so that's my strategy for this one too. I think a skirmishing approach will be necessary too, with that E-litre 3K in the other team. Thankfully, I catch the E-litre 3K looking the other way immediately, and her reaction is to run in ...

Going for a rampage in Splat Zones

Tuesday, October 4th, 2016

I'm having a bad time this evening. I can't get my normal choices of weapons to work for me. I'm getting a little frustrated, which calls for a more radical change than just the weapon. I pick the Splash-o-Matic and decide to mostly ignore the objective, and instead try to go ...

Securing the Splat Zones

Monday, September 19th, 2016

Moray Towers is in the rotation. I grab my Splatterscope without even seeing what Ranked mode is live. I really like Moray Towers (and there is only ten minutes before a Squid Sisters update). Splat Zones! That'll do, pig. My Splatterscope can reach across the Splat Zones nicely, and I can ...

Putting up a fight in the Splat Zones

Friday, September 16th, 2016

Sticking with the Dual Squelcher, and improvising the start, where I move around my squidmates. I think that Inkbrush is going to be a problem for me, but it seems the Sprinkler is more my nemesis. I really do try to make use of my weapon's range, when I have it, ...

No-hope Splat Zones

Friday, September 16th, 2016

We're battling over Splat Zones, so I take the choice of the Dual Squelcher to cover ink and keep me away from trouble. I make earnest attempts to achieve both these goals, but the turf I ink is mostly out of the Splat Zones, if only because we're pushed back enough ...

How did we claim the Splat Zones?

Friday, September 9th, 2016

The gear balance update is here, so it's time to put on some shades for the last-ditch effort. I reckon the other team will nearly always have their counter below 30, so I'll get some good use out of them. The new Bomb Sniffer effect seems good too. I liked the ...

Blasting away in Tower Control

Tuesday, August 30th, 2016

First choice weapon tonight for Tower Control was the Tri-slosher, one of my favourites. It didn't work out so well. Let's give a recent new weapon another go instead, the Custom Blaster. I mostly get back in to the swing of the weapon without much delay, although I doubt I will ...

Sloshing around the Splat Zones

Monday, August 29th, 2016

Two chargers on each team. Hopefully our chargers will keep their chargers at bay. Or maybe the longer range of the Slosher over the Tri-slosher I'm more used to will help me splat the chargers myself. I like my odds in both Urchin Underpass and Ancho-V Games with the Slosher, as ...
