I love ranked, but that is probably because I am great at Splat Zones, but terrible at the other ranked modes. Any way I could get any better?
Another thing to counter the salt jumps, is splat one of the inkling's and place a sprinkler or splash wall right on top the ir spot, did it once and only once, it splatted 3 people in a row before they quit jumping on the towerI'll just leave this here, for if you ever play in squads

People have sent my squad friend request hate messages AND wtf lol messages. I'm also willing to bet that I've gotten some blocks. Having a 90% lose rate against a certain squad simply because they equip one specific ability and time their super jumps can make you salty.
... but it is definitely something my squad does about once a month for the laughs.
To help combat this(and just stealth jump in general), learning to spot stealth jumpers is key.
The ability gets rid of their super circle, sure, but not the other telltale sign
an inkling plummeting down from the sky
So if you ever think the tower is 100% clear of enemy squids, be sure to look up and make sure.
(Easier done on more open sky maps like moray towers but still doable even on maps like flounder.)
PS: Does anyone know of instances were squads have used the tower salt strategy in tournaments?
Or, even better, have there been tournaments that ban said strategy? xD
PPS: Landing bombs on the tower is good, but landing them on top of the grate of the tower, more specifically on a corner of the grate, is the best.
It covers not only most of the top on the tower, but also covers one or two of the walls aswell. If you and a teammate aim right and time them close enough together,
that is a psuedo inkstrike on the tower.
lol, this is so true.Disclaimer: you contract and spread horrible diseases by using this strategy.
I've seen loads of people succeed in Tower Control with mid-range weapons, the tentatek, .52 gal, .96 deco, slosher deco, and the berry pro. These weapons have a good mix of defense and offense, and they're not too rare to see on the tower.Tower control seems to be a mode of extremes when it comes to weapon selection, you either want something short-range (blasters, some shooters) or long-range (chargers, squelchers) when assaulting the tower.
