16-6 in Splat Zones with the Splattershot Jr. I must be doing something right. This may be one of my best Splat Zone battles so far, and certainly with a shooter.
I am particularly pleased with hunting down that pesky charger, and downright proud of lobbing a Splat Bomb on his ...

Splat Zones will be the death of my ranking. I get what I have to do, and I kinda can do it sometimes, but other squids just seem that much better than me a bit too often. Today seems to be an exception, at least as far as wins goes.
I ...

Far from my best battle in Splat Zones, but I like to think that at least I made a good showing of myself. I feel I splatted a lot of ink around in the right places, even if my aim is still a bit dodgy.

I'm not sure I helped too much in this Splat Zones battle, but I'll take the ranking points. I need them.

Well, I suppose I took out that Sprinkler. Not the Splash Wall, though. And I did give a morale-boosting 'Nice!' at the end. I'm sure that counts as contributing.

Just when I think I'm getting the hang of Splat Zones, it all starts going wrong. The opponents push forwards, get their specials charged, and I'm flushed out of a comfortable perch.

Not a bad result for me as a squid, but we perhaps could have kept the lead. Maybe I'm ...

A couple of demoralising losses in Splat Zones has my changing weapons again. I'll give the Custom Dual Squelcher a go, after trying it out in Turf War recently.
The Custom Dual Squelcher has an excellent range, which lets you throw ink in to the Splat Zones from a good distance ...

Sneaking around the back of someone doesn't work too often, making it extra-sweet when it does. There is something quite satisfying about splatting someone so easily. Catching another slosher with my own slosher is satisfying too, making me think I'm doing something right.
Not quite doing something right, I wasn't quite ...

I stick with the Tri-slosher Nouveau for another Splat Zones battle, this time on Piranha Pit.
We're up against all shooters, which could be dangerous. Or maybe their lack of variety will play against them. As is usual when I have a bucket in my suction cups, I get slosh-happy and ...

After a couple of poor games with the .52 Gal, I swap weapons again. This lets me keep the battles fresh by mixing up my tactics, and gives me an excuse to exit the lobby with my current squidmates.
The Tri-slosher works well in Tower Control, and it should work well ...

It's easy to blame your squidmates when you lose, but sometimes it can feel like you are doing more than your fair share of the inking.
I do my best to keep our zone covered in our ink, and claiming the other zone for ourselves, but it seems that if I'm ...
