It takes me a little while to get my bearings. The map is still quite new, the changes from Turf War to Tower Control take some getting used to, and sometimes I'm just a bit rusty. My early attempts to ride the tower don't last long at all, but that ...

The Tri-Slosher can be a thirsty beast, particularly when I mash the trigger continually. That may end up being my downfall on this Tower Control battle on Camp Triggerfish. That, and forgetting that I have a Bubbler special.
I uncharacteristically ignore the tower to start with to get a couple of ...

My first Ranked battle on Piranha Pit, and it's on Tower Control. I grab my current favourite weapon for the game mode, and get throwing ink around with the Tri-Slosher. It's easy enough to get to the tower, but its path doesn't go far from the centre of the map. ...

A quick rush to the tower as is usual, and I take control. Noticing the trail of pink ink below me, I infer the presence of the opposition and aim to splat him, which I do. I fall off the tower in the process of getting the splat, which can ...

It's not my first game of Tower Control for the evening. Even so, I'm impressed by how smoothly I'm running with the Tri-slosher, getting to the central column and on the tower in no time. What I notice next is that I splat Eddie, then I splat Eddie again. As ...

I can move fast with the Tri-slosher, but not Inkbrush-fast. The only problem with the start is us bumping in to each other. Having to deal with long-range weapons like the Squelcher, when I'm wielding the short-range Tri-slosher comes in second, though.
Our early lead is protected, and then I go ...

I'm really getting the hang of inking and squidding with the Tri-slosher. I get to the tower in no time on Blackbelly Skatepark, and then use the Tri-slosher's damaging falling ink to my advantage against a charger, and avoid a pesky Luna Blaster using the tower's pillar. If only I ...

Tower Control on Camp Triggerfish, and I have to deal with blasters and chargers. Both are weapons that I'm not good with, and both are weapons that are excellent in the right suction cups. Blasters are indirect-fire weapons, which are only effective at their optimal range, making them tricky to ...

Huh, the opposition have three Luna Blasters in their team. This can't bode well. They may be one of the shortest-ranged weapons in the game, but they are devastating when in their range. Rather than needing a direct hit, blasters send out a bubble of ink that explodes, hitting anything ...

This is an odd route to the tower that I take. I think it's prompted by my starting position on the base. That happens. I prefer to have multiple options open at the start of any battle, on any map, and the one I choose can be dictated by the ...
