Splatoon 3: Against boring bombing in all modes, but this is Rainmaker [6(1)-6, Range Blaster]
4I don't get hit by the Rainmaker shield, which is a plus, and my casual leap forwards doesn't get me splatted, not even when I slowly walk back through the Super Chumps. I have no idea what's going on, though, apart from a squidmate having the Rainmaker. That should be obvious as I wander around, shooting nothing. I even miss a Beakon next to me. Never mind, I grab a drink and get splatted, which sadly doesn't give me much time to think. But I do see our Rainmaker heading left, and hitting the podium as I launch from my espresso machine.
I head towards the Rainmaker, and run away again as I am too late and it is coming towards me. I try flanking, which doesn't work, and find myself in no-inkling's land. Thankfully, the Roller splats me, and I get an undeserved rest. I return to be alone, without realising it, and leap in to the unknown with no one around but the other team. I don't last long. At least my squidmates hit the podium first, and we keep the lead by dint of that when the green team break through the checkpoint.
I decide to sit back and defend, given that I have range, focussing on stopping the green team from stealing the lead. A squidmate goes one better and picks up the Rainmaker, which definitely stops green progress. And still I can't hit anything, coming under pressure from the Splat Roller. On top of that, I go to sleep for a moment. Of all the times! We lose the lead, which is unfortunate, but worse than that, the N-ZAP '89 has decided to give up playing and just chuck Chickens our way. I can get really frustrated by such single-minded, boring tactics.
Still without a splat, I'm close to giving up. But I keep going, even as the N-ZAP '89 acts like they've given up, still throwing Chicken after Chicken, using their Ink Recovery to speed up the thoroughly uninspired strategy. And I get a splat! I'm splatted too, but it's a breakthrough moment, I can feel it. I poke forwards, sensing the Splat Roller is around, and still they surprise me. But I evade them and they withdraw. For a few seconds. I push forwards, destroying a Beakon and bagging two more splats, before easing back in to their path. At least it feels like I'm contributing now.
The Chicken thrower is back on as I return, and they're joined by a Splat Bomber. I hit one of them chasing me, and push forwards to find the other to enact some righteous education, which comes with a direct blast to the face. If only they had more practice shooting their weapon, eh? And the splat incidentally clears a path for a squidmate dashing forwards with the Rainmaker, straight past me, further forwards, and in to a rapid lead-gaining surge that continues extending. I don't even mind that the Splat Roller is behind me. I kinda mind that I get a direct hit on them just as my squidmate dunks the Rainmaker, denying me the splat. But still, victory, both in battle and moral. Woomy!
