The Tri-slosher Nouveau is still working for me in the Splatfest, although I'm starting to feel the effects of its short range. Not to start with, thankfully, and neither when I take the side route in reverse to get to the opponents' base.
There's always so much more turf to ink ...

One of our squids disconnects early in the battle. This puts us at something of a disadvantage. Or gives us a challenge. Either way, we're not quite strong enough to overcome the odds.
My shoddy start to the battle doesn't help. Aiming that the wrong place, running out of ink, being ...

Let's get through some of the Rich of Fit Splatfest battles. I tend to play with an aim to becoming a Queen of the Splatfest, which results in plenty of games played.
I do okay in the Rich or Fit EU Splatfest in the first few battles, but a ninja boy ...

It's another EU Splatfest, with the theme of wanting to be Rich or Fit in the New Year. Personally, I'm just happy to be getting to grips with new weapons and maps in Splatoon.
The Splatfest maps are Urchin Underpass, Flounder Heights, and Mahi-Mahi Resort. The first is an original map, ...

Not much of a first look any more, as Piranha Pit was released at the end of December, but it's my first game on the map. Rather than head directly in to Ranked battles on unfamiliar terrain, I pop on to Turf War first. It's a bit more relaxed, less ...

I'm giving another weapon new to me a go. This time, it's the Custom Dual Squelcher, a shooter that has perhaps the longest range that isn't a charger. I should probably use that to my advantage, although the habits from playing so long with short-range weapons will probably take a ...

Sticking with the Splattershot Jr for now, and so a different tactic than with the Splash-o-Matic. I don't try to cross in to opponent territory as soon as I can to cause some disruption, but ink up as much turf as necessary to charge up my Bubbler special to start ...

Another new weapon to try. Well, maybe not a new weapon, but one I've not used in a long time. The Splattershot Jr is one of the first weapons available, and is a good reason why many squids overlook it once they can get their tentacles on many more weapons. ...

One battle is hardly enough to assess a weapon. That hasn't stopped me in the past, as I have occasionally tried something new, not liked it as much as the Splash-o-Matic, and gone straight back to that. I know I ought to spend more time with a weapon to get ...

I'm trying new weapons every now and again, to keep myself as fresh as possible. The Octoshot Replica is another weapon that seems effective when used against me, so I equip it to give it a go in Turf Wars. How about that, not trying a new weapon in Ranked. ...
