My starting gambit on Ancho-V Games is pretty much decided by my position on the base. I'm at the front, so I take the shortest route to the purple team. I try to be as sneaky as possible, for someone throwing buckets of ink around, and drop quietly on to ...

More Tower Control! Probably my favourite battle mode. I used the Tri-slosher a lot in my last session and like to shake things up for variety, but Flounder Heights and Ancho-V Games are great for skirmishing, and I'd like to get some confidence back in the bucket after the frustrating ...

Oops, I wasn't sitting down and comfy as the battle was starting, and throwing myself in to my chair disorientates my inkling slightly. But I get myself pointing in the right direction and get to battling. Well, sort off. The Seeker won't go far with the platform up, and spinning ...

Thursday, July 6th, 2017
I have to hang back a bit as a Carbon Roller Deco, as I don't really project ink, and launching a Seeker makes too obvious a path for me to squid through. Holding back to ink the home turf helps everyone without putting myself at unnecessary risk. Being available to ...

E-litre 3K one way, Tri-slosher the other, and I guess wrong which one splats me. And there's an annoying interloper near our base. I may miss him with my Disruptor, but I do well not to get splatted immediately a second time. I do a bit of tidying up before ...

Phew, how much ink does that inkling have in his tank? I think I only survive because of my squidmate adding to my own ink. At least I end up in a fairly good position to slosh over the Tower as the yellow team make the first push, and the ...

I would give a pro-tip not to run headlong in to enemy ink, but I was splatted from above. I suppose the advice should be not to run in to obvious crossfire. Either way, don't copy my start to this battle. I come back to claim some turf, and as ...

I wonder if the Bento Splatterscope will be on the obvious perch to start the battle. And I wonder if I can get around to it unscathed. Yep! I hop over the perch to look for inklings in the sea of purple ink, and almost bump in to one. I ...

Less forward and more sideways to start with. I kind of saunter over there too, not really rushing, both wanting to build a bit of charge in to my Bubbler and wanting to see if anyone is coming on the teal team. Yes, one is, and a Disruptor catches him ...

Tuesday, June 27th, 2017
The green team push up pretty aggressively to start the battle, and I feel a bit impotent against the two-pronged approach. That isn't helped by a mistimed jump/Seeker throw that does nothing. At least I time my jump in to the Killer Wail a bit better, although it's frustrating to ...
