Dammit, the charger has gone from his perch by the time I get there, probably because the teal team have the Rainmaker. I then spend what feels like ages just looking for another inkling. But at least I find three at once, including the charger. Hopefully that makes up for ...

Man, I think I've got that E-litre 3K Scope looking the wrong way and Disrupted, ripe for the splat, when he splats me without even looking, thanks to the Rainmaker's Shield. I have better luck with the Luna Blaster casually lobbing Splat Bombs over to us. But then I miss ...

Well, that dive past the Rainmaker doesn't work so well, even if I do get past a Splash Wall. And my attempt to approach the Rainmaker from behind is scuppered by an aware inkling. At least my Bubbler protects me to burst the Rainmaker out of its shield, which would ...

Hitting the side quickly, getting a half-decent Disruptor throw, and pausing to avoid a flick pays off nicely to start the battle. Two inklings under my sloshes to start with, and a third who I just about manage to keep out of range from. Heading back towards the Rainmaker sees ...

I want to use my N-ZAP '89's range and Sprinkler to good effect as soon as possible, so head along to the right, where I can throw the Sprinkler above the Splat Zones, and keep my range from whatever early push is coming our way. It works out for me, ...

Okay, I've used the N-ZAP before, but not for ages and not for much. It does seem to be my nemesis when wielding the Tri-slosher, though, and with a Sprinkler and Inkstrike, the N-ZAP '89 looks to be a good choice for Splat Zones. I'll take it out for a ...

Continuing my return to shooters, I pick up the Splattershot Jr for a bit. Splat Bombs and a Bubbler should be quite familiar to me, and I launch myself with confidence in to the Splat Zones. Once captured and looking good, I head towards the top, but divert my attention ...

Sunday, July 9th, 2017
I've been trying some shooters recently, and have had a bunch of quite frustrating battles perhaps as a result. I don't know if I'm just a bit rubbish at the moment, if Splat Zones continues to bring out the more dedicated squids, or if I am just unpracticed with shooters. ...

It occurs to me that I haven't battled with a shooter for ages, preferring instead the less traditional weapons. But I used to, so I'm going back to them for a bit. The obvious first choice is the Splash-o-matic, the first weapon I mained. My strategies don't really change much, ...

It's a pretty decent start to the battle. Despite floundering at the top of the ramp, I get to the Splat Zones in time for an initial splat, and head around the side as my squidmates capture the Splat Zones. All looks good for sneaking here and there, to get ...
