I try to both charge my Bubbler a bit and come from an unexpected angle at the start of this Rainmaker battle. I suppose they both work, at least a bit. I catch a purple inkling from behind, not that I get the splat, but I don't get my Bubbler ...

I think I've escaped the early attention in my first advance in this battle, somehow getting past the inklings on the ground. But rather than moving on to surprise the charger, I jump in to a firing Luna Blaster. The result isn't pretty.
My second jump lands me on an exploding ...

As usual, I blast beak-first in to the opposition. And, as usual, I get splatted without much to show for it. I will learn one day. At least this tactic mostly works for getting the Tower under our control. I even get lucky, and the Tower doesn't start returning to ...

I now know the extra inkable blocks in Museum d'Alfonsino, and I aim to use them. Unfortunately, my first effort runs me beak-first in to a Heavy Splatling. Me and my bucket aren't going to come out of that one well.
I survive the second encounter, although I don't realise for ...

I don't think I've played Tower Control in Museum d'Alfonsino for a while, so it took me a little while to find out how to reliably get to the other side of the museum. The central column isn't there! Luckily, two extra blocks have been added, one either side, allowing ...

I love Moray Towers. Whether I'm facing chargers, playing a charger, or just running up and down either side of it, I think it's a great map, particularly with the extra blocks. I'm tempted to pull out the Splatterscope, but I think the Tri-slosher should work really well for sloshing ...

What a great start to this Splat Zones battle! I make it to the Splat Zones, ink a bunch of turf, and get some decent splats. I even catch the tail end of a Kraken, probably disappointing him a little. What would have made it perfect would be catching both ...

A quick blast with the Hydra Splatling had my standing in one position on Museum d'Alfonsino, which was effective but not particularly interesting. Back to the Tri-slosher, looking for some action. I find it, too! Facing down the barrel of an Inkzooka is a little too much action, perhaps.
I've got ...

Time for the Tri-slosher! I think I'll be aiming for inklings more than the Splat Zones, but I never really know what I'm doing until I get in to the battle. But I almost inevitably get splatted in the first encounter. It feels that way, anyway.
After the aborted mission in ...

There's something about my first battle of the night if I'm using a Tri-slosher. Or maybe it's just the past few days and not an ongoing trend. Still, I play like an inkling possessed in this battle, like I did in my previous excellent Tri-slosher showing. If only I could ...
