I aim more to the left than I want, so that I don't shoot a squidmate's head, but none of them jump, which is good. My first Sprinkler throw is a little off, but as they don't bounce they're not easy to aim. The second hits its mark, and I ...

Phew, three chargers on our team, plus a Roller. Not a great composition. But look at the other team too, three E-litre 3Ks and a Hydra Splatling! This will be unpredictable. I can at least say with confidence that normal Tower Control tactics won't be applicable, so I'm just going ...

The inkling coming over the bridge causes me pause, and dropping back helps splat the inkling that came over the ramp. I resume my squidding over the perch, but no one's there, probably because there's no charger on the blue team.
I turn to see what the Rainmaker's doing, and as ...

Not my best Seeker to start with, but it'll do. My channel around the Rainmaker is blocked by a Roller, so I pause to flick at the shield before not fooling the Roller at all to try sneaking around the side. At least I don't get splatted. The other side ...

Going full-speed in Squad Battles only gets me splatted really easily, really often, so I try to practice some caution to start this battle. Maybe I should apply that elsewhere, but I think I'm happy to stay at the low A ranks and be reckless and dumb. I also kinda ...

I like this side route on Camp Triggerfish Rainmaker. If you can just squeeze under the gate, you can move around the side quicker than inklings expect, which lets you appear on their flank as rather a surprise. Add a bit of caution, and you can control the centre of ...

An E-litre 3K on the other team is a good target for me, but also a risk. A fun risk, unlike the Rapid Blaster, which generally are bad for me and my bucket. My first route is going for the E-litre 3K, which should let me ignore the Rapid Blaster ...

Naturally, I'm aiming for that Kelp Splatterscope to start my battle. The N-ZAP coming my way could be trouble, but a missed Point Sensor by her lets me squid close enough to get an advantage. From there, even an active Point Sensor doesn't alert the Splatterscope on her standard perch. ...

That's a good-looking purple team. The Kelp Splatterscope will be my target, and I should avoid the N-ZAP. I should probably be wary of the Tri-slosher too, as those guys are nutters. But I aim for the Splatterscope first, helped along nicely by my Gal squidmate, but I think the ...

Jumping in to grab the newly burst Rainmaker looks like a bad idea pretty quickly, but thankfully I jump to the side just in time to dodge the Killer Wail. It doesn't really put me in a good position, though, not with a charger, but I don't know why my ...
