I'm flitting between weapons this evening, happy with both the Tri-slosher for Tower Control, and the Splatterscope for the maps. It's good to have options too, as it can change the way I play. I still get splatted in silly ways, whatever I do. Jumping on the tower whilst equipped ...

Camp Triggerfish Tower Control with the Splatterscope. This should be fun! I take the side route to get a decent perch, and even manage to splat someone by aiming! Of course, I soon am forced off that perch, but that's expected.
The opponents then take the attitude that turf control manes ...

Oops, squids go through grates. It's almost like I don't know this. I get myself back in to position and hope I'm not too late to defend the Rainmaker. But I am a little. One splat, but then hit on two fronts. Never mind.
Chargers aren't just good for splatting inklings ...

Okay, I know what's happening at the beginning of this battle. It's pretty straightforward, and I am in the middle of it. The second push looks pretty clear too, right up until the Rainmaker is dunked on the podium. The animation plays and everything, but our inkling gets splatted and ...

Splat two inklings with the Rainmaker's shield, wait for someone to grab it, then miss them and get splatted from both sides. I'm not entirely sure what my squidmates were doing at the start of the battle.
As always, I could improve my aim, but I have fun with the Splatterscope, ...

Arowana Mall is a great place for chargers. We have two on our team, they have none. But what good is a charger as a suppressive weapon when no one wants to carry the Rainmaker. I suppose I'll do it.
Once I've shown that the Rainmaker is benign, my squidmates have ...

Running around with a charger, maybe I shouldn't be the one who grabs the Rainmaker and gets it close to the podium at the start of the battle. That doesn't stop me doing it, though.
It's a better idea than trying to actually splat inklings with my charger, though. My aim ...

I find my Splatterscope works better when my own squidmates don't jump in front of me. Take note, inklings, particularly at the start of battles. Jumping off the base when you have a charger trying to lay a track can be counter-productive.
My charger also works better from a distance. I ...

Another shaky start in this battle of Rainmaker. My aim and our Rainmaker carrying gets a bit better in the middle, but then I'm back to squidding on grates to refill my ink like a newbie.

I manage to get some good splats in still, and although I can't hit a ...

Thursday, July 7th, 2016
We get a great lead from the start, thanks to a clever inkling managing to sneak along the grating to come down a rather less-used route to the podium.
We keep the pressure on, with the Rainmaker staying in opposition territory, until one of their inklings goes the long away back ...
