Back to A+ Ranked battles, and why not try to improve my aim with the Splatterscope? I can practice with other weapons another day. It certainly seems like I need the practice with the Splatterscope anyway.
I have a shaky start to this battle, trying to keep my range, whilst being ...

I've had some fun with the Splatterscope, and racked up some wins. I think it's time to try another weapon. I can't really decide which one, though, so I swap back to the Tri-slosher, because I like it so much in Ranked I'd like to see it work for me ...

I start this Splatfest with the Tri-slosher. I'm not sure why. It's not the Splatterscope, which I've been using almost exclusively in Ranked for a week or so, and although I don't really use the Tri-slosher in Turf War, it should be good, when used properly.
I'm not convinced I'm using ...

Back in S Rank, back feeling a bit rubbish at the game as a result. I start with the Splatterscope, with pretty much the same plan as before to improve or drop out of S Rank, but it becomes clear that this will demotivate me today. Not the Splatterscope, not ...

Walleye Warehouse can be good for the Splatterscope, particularly in Splat Zones, where you can hang back and ink the turf relatively safely. That is, until you are flanked by inklings going down the side routes. It's a good map.
I try to hold back and keep myself safe, which is ...

I decide which side to flank based on the side of the podium I start on for this battle. I can't help but pause for a splat, though. Once I'm back on track, I flank effectively, although maybe without splats.
The splats come from a second flanking move, once I work ...

I'm sticking with the Tri-slosher. Maybe I should re-introduce more weapon variety, but I like the bucket quite a lot. I'm also sticking with my plan to flank the opposition early and often.
I don't catch out an inkling quite so easily this battle, and although I disrupt him it is ...

My first battle of the session, and I am already thinking about flanking the opposition and being a disruption. It works quite well to start with, although that first splat had the inkling perhaps lacking a little awareness. The following two were just my good positioning, though.
I make a poor ...

I'm on a losing streak in Splat Zones. Clearly my mojo has left me. Instead of trying to cover the Splat Zones I go on a skirmish, hoping that whatever disruption I can cause will be enough to let my squidmates take control.
I start quite well, aiming to get not ...

Finally, I have a game where I get in to some kind of groove. Sure, I chase the E-litre 3K around for longer than I probably should have (how many times do I have to hit him anyway?), but at least I get rid of his piercing laser beam from ...
