I'm not sure I knew what was happening half the time in this Tower Control battle. Shoot some ink, keep your turf your colour, and squid away from trouble.
All I can say from this and the other recent battles on Urchin Underpass is that I'll try not to get salty ...

I'm not too comfortable with the Splatterscope on Urchin Underpass, but as the other map in the rotation is Arowana Mall I am taking a positive can-do attitude to the Underpass today.
I don't want to be foolish and push forwards when I don't have to. I ought to provide a ...

With the Splatterscope equipped, I really need to moderate my urge to ride the tower so much. That's for other inklings to do, so that I can provide necessary support. It would help my efforts if my squidmates also realised this and were more keen to ride the tower themselves.
Almost ...

I have a great start to this Rainmaker battle, flushing out some inklings, getting the upper hand on an E-litre 3K user who's Burst Bomb Rushing towards me. I think I get a bit cocky after that.
It seems that the Rainmaker has a longer range than the Splatterscope. Good to ...

E-litre 3Ks, huh? What can you do? Get in to pointless duels with them, apparently.
Playing the support role looks to be a good idea, as the other side are keen to keep the turf purple, making their pushes more quick and effective. But one of them isn't expecting me to ...

Sometimes, I'm not entirely sure I know what I'm doing. Of course, the start of any Ranked battle is fairly formulaic, and so it goes for this Rainmaker on Urchin Underpass. I even get a nice Splat Bomb splat and Splatterscope double. After that, I'm just making it up as ...

The other side has a charger too. An E-litre, and in the tentacles of a competent squid. He hides his laser sight and everything. It leads to some surprise splats, but I like to think I can give as good as I get. Or good enough, anyway. I just need ...

Splat Zones today! The two maps are Kelp Dome and Urchin Underpass, so I know full well that I am pushing my luck in sticking with the Splattterscope, but I am hoping that its ability to cover a long stretch of turf quickly will be an advantage. I just need ...

Splat Zones will be the death of my ranking. I get what I have to do, and I kinda can do it sometimes, but other squids just seem that much better than me a bit too often. Today seems to be an exception, at least as far as wins goes.
I ...

The Dual Squelcher may have a good range, but it's not as good as a charger. In the right tentacles, a charger is a good suppression weapon, and these squids have the right tentacles.

And in the next battle, after a shaky start, I get to the top rank with a ...
