That inkling with the Splash Wall is ruthless. I don't think I agree with his methods, however effective they are, but I also think the other side could have got out of their base more easily than they made it look.
I leave him to it for the most part, opting ...

Another Splatfest! Let's blast through the battles. To ease myself in to the Ninja vs Barbarian Splatfest, I take my old favourite in to battle, the Splash-o-Matic.
I adopt my old techniques too. Half sneaking around the side routes, half running headlong in to trouble. I do try to be a ...

My second battle with an E-litre 3K, again in Tower Control on Walleye Warehouse. My testing of the weapon isn't helped much by having other chargers on our team, but everyone can choose their weapon. I need to get good quickly.
The E-litre 3K feels really powerful. The range on the ...

When encouraged to persevere with a charger, I started with the Splat Charger and, on getting comfortable with that, progressed to the Splatterscope. And then I stayed with the Splatterscope. Not much of a progression, really.
I think I didn't want to become a hated E-litre user. But, really, any charger ...

I know how to play Splatoon. I certainly don't press the reset-camera button instead of jump near the start of the game. But one thing I do is wear a t-shirt with the haunted trait. It's actually pretty decent, acting as a one-squid Echolocator whenever I'm splatted. And in Ranked ...

16-6 in Splat Zones with the Splattershot Jr. I must be doing something right. This may be one of my best Splat Zone battles so far, and certainly with a shooter.
I am particularly pleased with hunting down that pesky charger, and downright proud of lobbing a Splat Bomb on his ...

Far from my best battle in Splat Zones, but I like to think that at least I made a good showing of myself. I feel I splatted a lot of ink around in the right places, even if my aim is still a bit dodgy.

A couple more losses, even after ...

I'm not sure I helped too much in this Splat Zones battle, but I'll take the ranking points. I need them.

Well, I suppose I took out that Sprinkler. Not the Splash Wall, though. And I did give a morale-boosting 'Nice!' at the end. I'm sure that counts as contributing.

The Walleye Warehouse podium must be one of the hardest to reach. At least, it feels like it, with those ink-proof slopes and chokepoint right by the podium. But having said that, our opponents got a knockout victory against us a couple of times during the evening's session, so maybe ...
