I'm going to give this Carbon Roller another bash. But the Deco version this time, for the Seekers. They are probably better for me than the Burst Bombs and Inkzooka, particularly in Splat Zones with Port Mackerel available.
I make a pretty average start. I am, after all, battling in A ...

It battles aren't going well, try a different weapon. Maybe not a weapon you have barely played before and is difficult to learn. But so it goes, and I give the Carbon Roller a try.
I'm not very good with it. How other inklings splat me so easily and reliably with ...

I'm having a rough evening tonight, not really getting in to a groove. Lots of being splatted, not enough splatting. Not feeling I have much agency in my battles.
This battle starts out a little better than others, as I am trying to be more circumspect, but I still get splatted ...

Arowana Mall has been a good map for me with the Splatterscope. But there's one on the other team too. They seem rather more competent than me with the charger too.
I do little at the start of the battle, and the other team get a decent lead that looks tough ...

I would like to try the Splatterscope again for a bit. Tower Control seems as good a mode as any, and the maps seem decent enough, so I equip the charger to see what I can do with it.
I can't do too much, it turns out. My aim doesn't seem ...

Another burst of Tower Control has my breaking out the Blaster. I would like to get better with it, to the point where I am good. I still need to sort out my range more reliably, as is obvious quite early. But I think my manoeuvrability is getting better in ...

Another classic early splatting at the start of a battle, combined with a missed Disruptor. I follow that up by doing it again along a different route. Good job, me.
I try to cheer myself up by looking to neutralise the E-litre 3K a little. I manage it quite well, going ...

It's a good, pointed start to this battle. I see the E-litre 3K on the other team and aim to splat her first. I take the route to the ramp, and up to the overhead walkway, which should let me see which perch she's using.
I pause to slosh down over ...

As we switch to Tower Control, I switch to the Blaster. I quite like it for Tower Control, but I don't really practice it much. That should become obvious quite soon. At least I use the Disruptor with the Tri-slosher. And throw it in to walls a lot with the ...

Back along the side route to start with. I think it can get me to the middle just about as quickly as the centre route, but with a bit of elevation for protection. If only the Rainmaker didn't point my way.
I show perhaps a little too much caution on my ...
