Less forward and more sideways to start with. I kind of saunter over there too, not really rushing, both wanting to build a bit of charge in to my Bubbler and wanting to see if anyone is coming on the teal team. Yes, one is, and a Disruptor catches him ...

The green team push up pretty aggressively to start the battle, and I feel a bit impotent against the two-pronged approach. That isn't helped by a mistimed jump/Seeker throw that does nothing. At least I time my jump in to the Killer Wail a bit better, although it's frustrating to ...

I can get to the Tower on Hammerhead Bridge pretty quickly as a Carbon roller, but as a Carbon Roller I'm not sure that I should be getting there quickly. Still, that Seeker does a good job, I avoid a Suction Bomb, and we take an early if insignificant lead. ...

I head for the flank to get behind the orange team immediately, and am glad that the Inkbrush moves a bit faster than me, putting her around the corner and somewhat unaware of me initially. From there, and a little conscious of how many orange inklings have been splatted, and ...

I look to hit the blue team's flank initially, but seeing the flurry of activity in the middle of the map changes my mind, particularly as my angle of approach looks good. I get a nice direct hit on one inkling, and can squid under the sight of the Splattterscope. ...

Oops, in trying to keep my forward motion up whilst blasting, I jump in front of the charger. That's exactly what I don't like when battling with a charger, so I'm sorry about doing that. I'm aiming to hit the perch on our right, though, where the range of my ...

I'm trying the Grim Range Blaster in Tower Control, hoping to get the hang of the Burst/Blast combo. Judging by the start of the battle, I need more practice. I still haven't quite worked out the utility of Burst Bombs on vertical surfaces either, but I'll get there. Just as ...

That rotating central plinth in the Museum is a great place to plant a Sprinkler for Splat Zones. It also occasionally makes a great place to aim at sitting targets. If only my aim was better, I'd get more splats. Still, I'm spreading ink with each missed shot, and my ...

Me and Slosher have the same idea to start the battle, and although we don't get to the Splat Zone in time to ink it, I hope that inking the way to this perch will pay off later. For now, I try to keep the channels blue, and clear up ...

A Seeker or two to start the battle and get the ink flowing works well. Trying to squid up the rotating central plinth goes less well, and is a bit embarrassing. I don't really know how I'm not splatted off it either, but it's good that I both survive and ...
