Enjoying some back-and-forth Tower Control (7-7, Splatterscope)

Wednesday, November 23rd, 2016

This is the fun kind of battle I enjoy, where both teams are going for the objective, but neither one is dominating. Everyone is doing their part for their team, and it makes for a fast-paced battle. The fast pace means I'm not always sure what's going on, and when I ...

Slightly manic Tower Control (6-6, Splatterscope)

Tuesday, November 22nd, 2016

Back to A+ Ranked battles, and why not try to improve my aim with the Splatterscope? I can practice with other weapons another day. It certainly seems like I need the practice with the Splatterscope anyway. I have a shaky start to this battle, trying to keep my range, whilst being ...

Being cautious in Black Tie Splatfest (925p, 1-1, Splatterscope)

Monday, November 21st, 2016

I'm still attempting to practice caution with my Splatterscope, not rushing in to confrontations I am likely to lose. I have to consider my options with Flounder Heights. There are obvious places to perch in Ranked battles, but maybe not so much in Turf War. I don't get credited for the ...

Close battle in Black Tie Splatfest (1115p, 2-1, Splatterscope)

Sunday, November 20th, 2016

It's been a bit of a rough start to the Splatfest, and I've swapped from the Tri-slosher to a Wasabi Splattershot and now to the Splatterscope. At least I should be able to cover a lot of turf without need to close with the other team. Not that using a ...

Stomped out of S Rank in Splat Zones (5-6, Splatterscope)

Saturday, November 19th, 2016

One more loss will see me drop out of S Rank. Now, it's not that I am aiming for the loss, but it would be a relief to be back in A+ for a bit. I also have a bunch of time to rack up some more losses, if this ...

From win to loss in Splat Zones (2-1, Splatterscope)

Saturday, November 19th, 2016

Splat Zones were up and down for me yesterday, and they return today. I think the Splatterscope will help, either with inking lots of turf to hold the Zones, or my shaky aim dropping me out of S Rank. The first battle was average, the second terrible, so I join a ...

A few good splats in Splat Zones (3-0, Splatterscope)

Friday, November 18th, 2016

I've had a couple of moderately good battles this session, along with some really bad, quite demoralising, crushing defeats. I keep battling, telling myself that at least the losses get me closer to dropping out of S Rank. And then I finish the evening with this battle. Sure, I can't hit ...

Doing okay against chargers in Splat Zones (4-4, Splatterscope)

Friday, November 18th, 2016

Chargers versus chargers in Splat Zones. Not surprising given the maps are Kelp Dome and Camp Triggerfish. It's my first weapon of choice too, although I remain in S Rank and am still clearly out of my league. My superb skill deficiency is shown early in the battle, where I think ...

Charger fun on Bluefin Depot Tower Control (5-5, Splatterscope)

Thursday, November 17th, 2016

Let's stick with the Splatterscope for now. Practice makes perfect, or at least better, and the Tower gives me a decent platform to aim at. It looks like we have some heavy opposition, though. My first splat is actually my trying to be cautious, and I see the inkling come up ...

Charging in S Rank Tower Control (8-6, Splatterscope)

Thursday, November 17th, 2016

I was watching some of my best games, in the Games of Fame playlist, and was pretty impressed by some of the charging I've managed to do. Maybe I got some luck here and there, but even if it is luck, it's great when it happens. And it's also why ...
