Too orangey for crows in Splat Zones [14(5)-5, Splattershot Jr]

Friday, January 12th, 2018

Some early caution pays off for me in Splat Zones, although my Splat Bomb throws are quite pitiful. My squidmates must be doing something right at least, as we capture the Splat Zones and hold on to them for a huge amount of time. We nearly win by knockout, as ...

Splats here and there in Splat Zones [23(8)-5, Tri-slosher]

Thursday, January 11th, 2018

I try to create and maintain a good foundational inking to start the battle, which would serve us well in any initial tussles, with a bit of close-range support for our Splatterscope. No splats for a while, but with my Ink Armour active and the Splat Zones nice and purple ...

Not really in control in Splat Zones [14(3)-5, Carbon Roller]

Thursday, January 11th, 2018

That's an excellent first ambush, even with the disappointing need for a second flick. The Robot Chicken throw is less excellent, but I'm happy with the Ink Storm. Coming around the back of the Tenta Missile inkling highlights the weakness of the Carbon Roller, though. The first flick is aimed ...

he charger likes that perch in Splat Zones [10(6)-4, Carbon Roller]

Wednesday, January 10th, 2018

There's some nice to-and-fro for the Splat Zones, and I manage to keep myself inking for a decent amount of time. The E-litre 4K sets himself up on the obvious perch, overlooking the Splat Zones and without an easy route to him, and although an occasional Robot Chicken moves him ...

Keeping Flight grounded in Invisibility Splatfest [2041p, 8(2)-2, Splattershot Jr]

Wednesday, January 10th, 2018

A good bit of inking to start, aiming off the ramp for maximum ink distribution, and dropping down to meet the Flight team coming our way. One Splat Bomb pushes back the Squiffer and splats his squidmate, and activating my Ink Armour replenishes my tank for another Splat Bomb as ...

Keeping a green ship in Invisibility Splatfest [2105p, 11(5)-1, Splattershot Jr]

Tuesday, January 9th, 2018

Keeping the high ground seems like a good idea on the Manta Maria, at least to start with. It's also a bit tricky to do that and advance, as going around the mast without dropping down gets you away from recovering ink, being on a grating. You can be sneaky ...

Shifty rolling in Invisibility Splatfest [1726p, 8(2)-2, Carbon Roller]

Tuesday, January 9th, 2018

Time for some fun with the Carbon Roller, for varying definitions of 'fun'. The Carbon Roller can be great to roll with, but it really does require either a blank canvas, like at the start of a battle, or a good amount of your ink to squid around in for ...

It's all about inking in Invisibility Splatfest [2053p, 6(3)-4, Splattershot Jr]

Monday, January 8th, 2018

Okay, shooters are for Splatfests, it seems, so I pick up my trusty Splattershot Jr, if only because I don't want to seem too trendy by equipping the Forge Splattershot Pro just yet. Maybe I should find Marie and get the Hero Shot Replica, though. It seems pretty nifty. Or ...

Inking the Academy in Invisibility Splatfest [1833p, 11(3)-1, Tri-slosher]

Sunday, January 7th, 2018

Sticking with the bucket for now, and we're back in the Academy. Early inking in a safe zone is a straightforward start, and I use my Burst Bombs as minor threats when moving in to the more contested area. My sloshing the wall of the central structure is meant to ...

Becoming less clear in Invisibility Splatfest [887p, 10(3)-2, Tri-slosher]

Sunday, January 7th, 2018

I like the green bucket, and even though I'm not convinced it's the best choice for Turf Wars I'm sure I can at least be effective with it. Even so, our mixed-weapon group of invisibility inklings may be at a disadvantage to the all-shooter Flight team. Still, I make the ...
