I'm planning to go up and around the back of the orange inklings to start the battle, but I think I can do more good by supporting my squidmates more directly. Despite my generally dodgy again, I can get the occasional good shot, and my first direct hit of the ...

There's no charger on the other team, so I don't go charging around the back, but the Heavy Splatling may go up on the walkway. Or maybe not, and that prospective Disruptor throw is embarrassing. At least I give up quickly and drop down to see what I can do ...

That E-litre 3K is my first target, so I speed around the side to see if I can catch him. Yep! But the blue inklings have been just as quick at claiming the Tower and pushing it. At least my position gives me an advantage, and that advantage chargers my ...

A good first splat gets my battle underway, although the inkling gets her revenge as soon as possible. She then moves towards our base, looking to cause us some disruption. I suppose it works, at least for me, but unless the green team wrests the Tower from my squidmates, all ...

Going around the back takes a little longer, but it eventually helps stop the initial push and get the Tower moving in the right direction. Spotting the Blaster heading my way helps me get a nice splat, but I point the Killer Wail in the wrong direction. I should have ...

It's a fair exchange to start my splatting, but I was jumping in to a risky position again. I should learn at some point. I take the same route back, despite the Tower being pushed by squidmates, but with some method to my manoeuvres. I hope to get behind the ...

Nope, not one more battle in B+. After that last victory, we had a loss, then magikarp turned up again, on my team no less, stacking another loss. But I wield the bucket with vigour, and I am once again close to being back in the A ranks.
I feel bad ...

Sunday, August 27th, 2017
My losing streak/skill degradation/poor choices continue, and not even switching to the Tri-slosher can stop my falling in to the B+ rank. Still, I'm confident the bucket can get me back out of there pretty quickly.
I'm helped a little by one inkling apparently trying to tank his ranking, turning up ...

I quite like scoped chargers, mostly when I'm aiming to flank them. They don't know I'm coming until the ink hits, and then it's too late. My position after hitting the E-litre 3K is good for clambering on to the Tower too, as the other purple inklings aren't around. I ...

Ooh, a charger on the other team. Can I surprise her on the usual perch? Nope, doesn't look like she's there. There are inklings beneath me, though, and I have a bucket. My sloshing doesn't quite work out as intended this time. But I get back on the grating to ...
