Just too late in Tower Control

Thursday, September 8th, 2016

Oh dear, an E-litre 3K on the other team. This will pose problems for me, and all of us really. I should try to do something about her. So that's my initial goal. I get a bit lucky in sneaking under her radar to get up the side, and although she's ...

Keeping up in Tower Control

Wednesday, September 7th, 2016

I'm not going to forget my Bubbler quite as much in this battle as the last. It would help if I could charge it as much as the last battle too, but never mind. As long as I make good use of it, that's fine. This battle is a bit hit-and-miss ...

I'll remember my Bubbler at some point, Tower Control

Wednesday, September 7th, 2016

I know I have a Bubbler as my Special. It's partly why I choose the Tri-slosher as a weapon. But somehow I forget I have it occasionally in battle. I also used to forget about the Disruptor Sub-weapon, or think it was any good. But enough inklings have used the Disruptor ...

Ahead, behind, ahead in Tower Control

Tuesday, September 6th, 2016

A couple of errors at the start of this battle. I miss the jump, and don't register the yellow squid hunkering down getting ready for a super-jump. Still, we get on the tower and take a commanding lead within the first minute or so of the battle. That lets me ...

Doing what I can in Tower Control

Tuesday, September 6th, 2016

Taking my different approach to S-Rank Tower Control again, and not going straight for the tower on Piranha Pit. Instead, a bit of scout, and a bit of hunting. I think I do quite well, splatting a Roller and avoiding a Bubbler, although I lose track of a couple of ...

Playing my part in Tower Control

Monday, September 5th, 2016

I'm trying out the new plan of being a nuisance, and mostly ignoring the tower in Tower Control. At least, at S Rank. Of course, this plan assumes that I can be a nuisance, and not just be splat-bait for the other team. Still, riding the tower makes me splat-bait by ...

Harassing the chargers in Tower Control

Monday, September 5th, 2016

Riding the tower in S Rank Tower Control just isn't working for me. And with two chargers on the other team, I sense it wont this battle either. New plan! Take out the chargers. It's an audacious goal, and one that is just as likely to frustrate as entertain, but splatting ...

Badly frustrating Tower Control Win

Sunday, September 4th, 2016

The battle starts like a typical S-Rank Tower Control battle, with me getting stomped. I'm starting to feel pretty helpless, and on a couple of occasions think about just putting the gamepad down and relaxing. No one gets on the tower for over 40 seconds! Apart from me, and that ...

Ups and downs in Tower Control

Friday, August 19th, 2016

First three pushes are in the three different routes in Arowana Mall. First is right down the middle, getting to the tower super-fast, and getting me splatted with some alacrity too. Second is to the left, to get above the approaching tower, and gets me splatted quickly. The third route takes ...

Too many red lasers in Tower Control

Thursday, August 18th, 2016

Three chargers on the other team for Tower Control. On the one hand, it should mean we will get control of the tower and be able to get and keep the lead without too much trouble. On the other hand, it will also mean that we are unlikely to be ...
