Hi everyone, I’m Nikash Gill. This was my 1st official Splatoon tournament I have signed up for and taking part in. I was very excited when my good friend Matthew/Matimoo (close friend from university) told me about this. I was interested in the Octo League since it offers more varieties (ranked modes and no restrictions on age and rank). In this one, each team plays 3 matches (1st match: Turf War, 2nd match: Tower Control, 3rd match: Turf War). The first to 2 points wins the round.
My team ‘The Fighting Mongooses’ had the following members: Jenna Lawrence (really nice friend from the Super Karters Community), Reina Hanatsuka, and Dylan Bonsu (who joined the night before). Matthew would have attended, but he had a family outing on the Saturday, and he works on Sundays.
We went up against various teams, including Team 4D (who won the tournament with a team of S+ members, and dominated all matches). Also played with Welsh Inksquidition, Cephalopros, and Chaotic Frontier.
Although 4D were really tough to beat, it was a great experience playing with new opponents, and having fun too. I was impressed we got as far as the Semi-Finals and finished in 3rd.

Please note, this tournament was available for UK members only. The winning team was given the chance to take their skills to the next level, earning themselves tickets to compete in a special event - The Splatoon Fan Fest, a live day of challenges, held at London’s Gfinity Arena & Studios on Saturday 27th August.
