I'm having a rough session in Tower Control tonight. I swap away from the Splatterscope to the Tri-slosher, just hoping to be more useful. Or, at least, more direct. All that really happens is that I get hunted by an N-ZAP, and not for the first time this evening. Maybe ...

The gear balance update is here, so it's time to put on some shades for the last-ditch effort. I reckon the other team will nearly always have their counter below 30, so I'll get some good use out of them.
The new Bomb Sniffer effect seems good too. I liked the ...

Somehow staying in S Rank, I battle on. But I don't know why. Actually, I do know why: in the hopes of dropping out of S Rank again, if I lose enough. But losing battles isn't much fun when you're being stomped every game.
I've tried several different weapons, and none ...

Do you like my new hat? I think I should make use of it, which pretty much means equipping the Splatterscope. I'm okay with that.
There's the usual reluctance to get on the tower at the start of the battle, which is probably less to do with not wanting to ride ...

First choice weapon tonight for Tower Control was the Tri-slosher, one of my favourites. It didn't work out so well. Let's give a recent new weapon another go instead, the Custom Blaster.
I mostly get back in to the swing of the weapon without much delay, although I doubt I will ...

I'm not adapting to S Rank well at all. I am kinda hoping to lose a whole bunch of battles and drop out of the rank. Although I honestly don't want to throw the battles, I'm not about to make myself ill trying to fit in somewhere I don't belong. ...

So close to dropping out of S Rank! Will it finally happen? Maybe! If I get frustrated by inking the back of a squidmate's head more times. But that's just general frustrating rearing its head. The inkling didn't jump, and it's generally a bit chaotic as we all run away ...

Three chargers on our team, two on theirs. That's to be expected for Camp Triggerfish, I suppose, but it doesn't make me confident all the same, so I go in to aggressive mode, looking to ride the tower and push in to opponent territory. It's not something I feel comfortable ...

An E-litre 3K on the other team! This can only mean one thing: I shall be made to look mediocre. Well, maybe not straight away, as first ink is mine, but I doubt this brief moment of comparative competence will last.
Instead of trying to out-scope the E-litre, which I will ...

The Splatterscope can get to the tower, and ink up it, in only a few shots on Walleye Warehouse. That's quite handy, but myabe not if I'm also the one intending to ride the tower. I splat one squid, but don't have enough charge for the other.
I have an embarrassing ...
