A few good splats in Tower Control (7-7, Splatterscope)

Wednesday, November 30th, 2016

Chargers remain popular in Tower Control with the promise of Arowana Mall appearing. It's Urchin Underpass again, though. Let's see if I can make better use of my Splatterscope than in the last battle. First splat is by aiming! Good job, tigerears. The second is from a Splat Bomb. Well, a ...

Little movement in a charged Tower Control (7-7, Splatterscope)

Tuesday, November 29th, 2016

Tower Control on Arowana Mall, you say? No wonder there are so many chargers, two on each team. And I'm one of them. But then Urchin Underpass comes up, so the joke's on us, I suppose. I imagine we'll persevere for a few battles, though, waiting for the Mall. Until then, ...

Providing supporting ink in Rainmaker (3-1, Splatterscope)

Tuesday, November 29th, 2016

Phew, what a losing streak. Down to A Rank, and nearly dropping out of that! I'm not stopping until I win a battle, though, and to that end I equip my trusty Splatterscope. What can I do with it? I can be oblivious to my flank, that's what. Situation normal. What ...

Not quite controlling the Splat Zones (10-3, Splatterscope)

Sunday, November 27th, 2016

With Port Mackerel in the map rotation, I swap to the Splatterscope. I like the map/weapon combination, as there is a nice perch to look over our Splat Zone, with a secondary perch for safety. And if I need to, I can drop down and keep the channels clear. This battle ...

Pushing up Hammerhead Bridge Rainmaker (10-8, Splatterscope)

Saturday, November 26th, 2016

An E-litre 3K is on the other team. There was one on the other team in an earlier battle, and its range over my Splatterscope was obvious. It was obvious quite a few times, in fact. I hope I can be a better ambassador for the Splatterscope in this battle. Actually, ...

Nightmare turns to dream in Splat Zones (3-5, Splatterscope)

Friday, November 25th, 2016

This battle goes quite badly for me from the start. Did the Squiffer know I was there? How? Maybe it was just a lucky shot, the kind that I get occasionally. But it kinda sets the scene for my getting splatted from all angles, and making bad decisions because of ...

Some comeback in Splat Zones (3-7, Splatterscope)

Friday, November 25th, 2016

I'm not having a great evening. I nearly drop out of A+ Rank, which isn't great, but perhaps adds evidence to my not being an S-Rank inkling yet, and why I have trouble in that tier. And in this battle, after our team takes an early lead, I just find ...

Being overrun in Splat Zones (5-2, Splatterscope)

Thursday, November 24th, 2016

A couple of unsuccessful battles with the Soda Slosher and Tri-slosher, against opposition that are playing at 2 in the morning and me in the early evening, has my returning to the Splatterscope. I probably won't do any better with it, but I can't do much worse, and I want ...

Charging in to chargers in Rainmaker (4-2, Splatterscope)

Thursday, November 24th, 2016

Okay, I know I'm, not the best charger. Far from it. If you would like more evidence, check out the little battle I have with a better charger from 1'05". Sure, I can manoeuvre quite well, and splat him too, but I never felt in control. But that's cool! I do ...

Finding my groove in Rainmaker (8-6, Splatterscope)

Wednesday, November 23rd, 2016

I'm getting back in to a charger groove. I really ought to play around with more weapons, I know, as the diversity is good to play and good to watch, and I will do. For now, though, I could use the practice. To prove it, I get off to a shaky ...
