There aren't many battles to be had with the back-rollers. Even so, I want my super sea snails, and that means becoming Queen of Toilet Rolls, so the battles are contested. Despite the known importance of inking your base, an earlier battle in Sturgeon Shipyard shows that getting to the ...

In a display of excellent timing and positioning, I drop right in to the Roller's flick. You can't teach that. I'm not quite sure how the Roller splatted me next time, though, but I at least I also somehow survived the Rainmaker's shield exploding. But that Roller catches me again, ...

That green inkling's move is easy to anticipate, opening up the centre of the Pump Track for me. I have to avoid a Curling Bomb Rush, though, but lurking on the lower track opens opportunity to splat the charger, which is pretty satisfying. I then make a similar mistake to ...

I remember that sponge incident from the previous battle, but the Curling Bomb trail gives me a good head-start. My solution is to jink around the sponge, but maybe I could have told my squidmate that. Also, maybe I don't need that head-start, if I can't dodge out of the ...

Who put that sponge there? Never mind. It doesn't stop us from grabbing the Rainmaker first, and making a good push in to opposition territory. My Ninja Squid Tee and Sploosh-o-matic work really well, but it works better when not squidding directly towards a Luna Blaster aiming at the Rainmaker ...

My previous tactic of sticking to the left worked well for my survival, if not my inking of the opposition Splat Zone, so I'm trying it again. I move up a bit, to get more coverage, and so that I'm not crowding our Goo Tuber. Early inking goes well, well ...

Sunday, February 4th, 2018
I've not practiced with a charger too much so far, although clearly I've managed to defeat DJ Octavio, as I'm pulling out the Hero Charger Replica for some Splat Zones. I don't rate my chances at hitting anything, but maybe I can lay down some ink.
It seems best to find ...

I've got myself the Hero Charger Replica, and I'd like to use it. It's probably best to practice a bit in Turf War before heading in to Ranked battles, though, so here I am. Port Mackerel is a good option for a charger too. I don't understand the inklings who ...

I saw steve-o online and thought I'd join their battles for a bit. It turns out it was his daughter, but that's cool. I was never gunning for him specifically, and enjoyed the battles where we were on the same team as well. But I am attracted to chargers, and ...

I like that Burst Bomb splat to kick me off, but I mis-gauge how close the Rapid Blaster is to me and get a bit stuck. It doesn't help that I get caught in crossfire too. My squidmates push the Tower, though, and I return to approach from behind, for ...
