Woo, look at me go! I probably overestimate my speed with the Tri-slosher, and it's more that I am over-eager to be the first to get splatted in the middle of the map. But I get to the middle and start inking the Splat Zones, like a good squidmate, which ...

Exquisite squidding again at the start of this battle. Turf needs to be inked, apparently. I'll work it out eventually. I may work out what's going on around the Tower too, but not that soon, because it gets a bit hectic. Bombs everwhere! Squids here, inklings there! I can't believe ...

I'm holding my own in S Rank, which makes a nice change. It makes me feel like I'm improving. Maybe the Carbon Roller Deco is helping me out, or trying to learn it is helping improve my battling.
It doesn't seem like a huge improvement in my battling when I find ...

Practice makes perfect! I make it up that small wall in Urchin Underpass really easily this time. The Seeker doesn't do much from the ledge, and I am harried off by yellow ink, but that's okay. I go the other way around to help out squidmates in trouble, and do ...

With my Seekers, the side route in Urchin Underpass looks more attractive for the starting surge. Less attractive when I still haven't quite got the hang of the Carbon Roller flick and struggle to get up a tiny wall. I didn't have this trouble with the Tri-slosher.
That was a good ...

Seekers help me, and hopefully my squidmates, get away from our base quickly. They're great at the start of a battle, because even though they use a lot of ink, you can squid along and regain it all back again. When I get to the Splat Zones I back off ...

This video is out-of-sequence to the rest, just because I want to get it out of the way. It's four full battles, start-to-finish, with four weapon and kit changes, no pauses, no edits.
Someone recently suggested that I hack my sub-abilities, and that everyone does. Nope, not me. I play to ...

I'm slipping down the ranks again, but that's okay. Maybe it will give me a slightly smoother ride for Carbon Roller Practice. Or it will put me with less consistent groups and make things harder. Either way, I'm opting for the Tri-slosher for Tower Control.
It's a great start to the ...

Starting the Splat Zones battle with a handful of splats is pretty decent! Squidding in to a Suction Bomb less so, but my minor streak was going to end some time. At least my little skirmish allowed my squidmates to ink the Splat Zones and give us a good lead.
I ...

My Tri-slosher speed doesn't quite get me to the side route on Urchin Underpass quickly enough, but I remember my Disruptor and engage the other team on my terms. Then press my advantage unwisely and get splatted. I never learn.
Inkstrikes pepper the Splat Zones as I go beyond them, but ...
