Moray Towers is in the rotation, which would be time to break out the Splatterscope, but the other map is Hammerhead Bridge. Well, if I can make it work on Kelp Dome, I can see what I can do on the Bridge.
I look for a perch of relative safety that ...

This battle doesn't start out well. The different turf textures make me misjudge a jump, and it's straight in to the water. I hope my squidmates aren't relying on me.
The splats just keep on coming. And not my splatting them, but my being splatted. At least I lay down a ...

Back to the Splash-o-Matic, the weapon I was most comfortable with for a long time. Let's see what I can do with its straight firing line and Suction Bomb Rush.
And immediately I find a squid on the other team who is better with it than me. I try to remedy ...

I seem to be inking turf effectively, but not splatting the opposition to keep them away from our inked turf. But on reflection, it seems more like I am having a poor time keeping a suitable range.
The Custom Dual Squelcher can engage the opposition squids at quite a long range, ...

Hey, look: it's Eddie! No hard feelings from the last time I spotted him, I hope. We're on the same team this time, at least. Not that it seems to help. The other squids take control of the Splat Zones and use their range to keep hold of them.

Whatever we were doing in this battle, we were doing the right thing! Good turf control, I suppose, plus I managed to keep myself out of trouble for the most part.

I got to know Mahi Mahi Resort quite well during the previous Splatfest, helping with my situational awareness. Having a ...

I'm sure my squidmates are doing something, I just don't really know what.
Mind you, a pattern throughout the evening on Camp Triggerfish Splat Zones is seeing one team with the longer-range weapons dominate. As the other map is Mahi-Mahi Resort, it's a tough call what to equip.

Okay, the Inkzooka only splats me a couple of times, but with that range and accuracy it is quite noticable, particularly as it can come out of nowhere. And, sure, coming from a splatterscope user, I realise I can't really complain.
I try to stay back and make use of the ...

The other side has a charger too. An E-litre, and in the tentacles of a competent squid. He hides his laser sight and everything. It leads to some surprise splats, but I like to think I can give as good as I get. Or good enough, anyway. I just need ...

Splat Zones today! The two maps are Kelp Dome and Urchin Underpass, so I know full well that I am pushing my luck in sticking with the Splattterscope, but I am hoping that its ability to cover a long stretch of turf quickly will be an advantage. I just need ...
