Fierce fight over the Splat Zones (10-6, Carbon Roller Deco)

Friday, June 2nd, 2017

That's a good dive away from a chasing Burst Bomb, even if I end up rolling in to a block. The battle over our Splat Zone begins, the other team getting in to a stronger position early. I loiter near the ramp, hoping to splat an inkling and take the ...

Good start to Splat Zones (12-5, Carbon Roller Deco)

Thursday, June 1st, 2017

I'm not convinced I meant to drop on to that grate, but I roll with it and continue my fall. My Seekers can be put to some use down there, at least. With little immediate threat, I head around the side, and with still no inklings around and plenty of ...

Ninja Squiding the Splat Zones (4-1, Carbon Roller Deco)

Thursday, June 1st, 2017

Inking the Splat Zones, inking some turf. Building some charge, launching Seekers, fleeing green ink. It's a pretty standard start to the battle, except perhaps with my being more conscientious about keeping the Splat Zones inked. I get a splat from take care of the Splat Zones too. I launch a ...

Getting the runaround in Splat Zones (12-3, Tri-slosher)

Wednesday, May 31st, 2017

Mmm, an E-litre 3K on Moray Towers. Will I be target practice for him, or can I sneak around him? I go for the sneaky option, naturally, but find no E-litre 3K when I get to the normal perch. There is another inkling, though, and an active Echolocator drops another ...

Let's go round again in Splat Zones (9-2, Tri-slosher)

Wednesday, May 31st, 2017

That Hydra Splatling may cause problems for us, but first things first: ink our own Splat Zone. With that done, it's straight to the other side, down the side route. But no one's there. No matter, I can go upwards and slosh down on the other Splat Zone from above. ...

Stealing splats in Splat Zones (5-0, Tri-slosher)

Tuesday, May 30th, 2017

There's no one coming down the corridor as I head around the side, so I keep going, hoping to flank some orange inklings. I don't see any, though, not even when one is soon reappearing at their base. I turn around to look for inklings with a fresh height advantage, ...

Annoying the E-litre 3K in Splat Zones (7-2, Tri-slosher)

Tuesday, May 30th, 2017

I really like Moray Towers, particularly with a Tri-slosher in my hands. I quite like Moray Towers Splat Zones too, even though it can be challenging to cross the central area, particularly with a charger around. That E-litre 3K looks menacing too, as its range can more than cross the ...

Getting close in Rainmaker (10-5, Carbon Roller Deco)

Monday, May 29th, 2017

That's a lucky Seeker splat at the start of the battle. I'm not even sure who it hit or where. Backing that up with a second splat to protect me and the Rainmaker is happy bonus. I push forwards with another Seeker, to ink a line for the Rainmaker, and ...

Invinci-squids in Rainmaker (8-7, Carbon Roller Deco)

Monday, May 29th, 2017

There's a little flurry of activity around the Rainmaker as always at the start of the battle. I mostly hang back, not wanting to get splatted for nothing, until I see a Splat Roller hide behind the boxes. I ninja squid the other way and flick some ink, getting two ...

Rollers and chargers in Rainmaker (10-6, Carbon Roller Deco)

Sunday, May 28th, 2017

This is an interesting pair of team compositions. Rollers and chargers, with one shooter on our team. It's not really what I'd expect to see in Rainmaker, but I'm sure we can make it work. My first splat is mutual, which perhaps I should have made sure of, but flicking ...
