Holy ****, man. I decided to take the Heavy Splatling out for a spin (pun intended), and for the most part I think I've done pretty decent.
So then comes a match on Kelp Dome, in which my team gets a big lead early on. We then progressively fall apart over the course of the match, culminating in our whole team getting wiped out 1-by-1, with 30 seconds left when we all respawn.
Once I respawn, I head left in order to help a teammate combat the enemy squids on that side. What I didn't know was that they were all there. So it came as a shock when I saw name after name pile up on the bottom of the screen, then looking up and realizing that I'd mowed them all down on a single charge. That allowed us to recover enough lost turf to regain the lead.
My throat's still sore from the epic & maniacal laugh I let out after that. (If you're familiar with The Ren and Stimpy Show, think of Stimpy's Invention. That sort of laugh.)
