Power level

Splatfest Power is a feature introduced in Version 2.6.0 that replaces the Vibe meter during Splatfest.

The concept of Power has also been extended in Splatoon 2 to apply to Ranked Battles and League Battles, and works similarly to how Splatfest Power works in the original game.

Description

 * During Splatfests what was previously the Vibe Meter will now display your Splatfest Power.
 * Initial Splatfest Power level depends upon your current Ranked Battle rank.
 * Splatfest Power level will change depending on wins or losses during Splatfest Battles.
 * The player with the highest Splatfest Power on the winning team will receive a slightly larger boost to their Splatfest Power than their teammates after the match.
 * At the end of a match, your team is ranked according to your current Splatfest Power level.
 * Until now, Splatfest matchmaking favored grouping players with similar play styles. Players will now be more likely to play with those of similar Splatfest Power level.
 * The higher a team’s average Splatfest Power level, the more Splatfest Points they will earn after winning.

At the top left corner of the box showing the player's Splatfest Power is a pair of eyes representing the Squid Sister they have sided with: players on Callie's team see scowling eyes, and those on Marie's team see more laid-back eyes. Both versions have their signature pupils, but with a dark red color instead of the usual gold.

Players with the highest Splatfest Power are featured in the Splatfest Top 100.

Trivia

 * The promotional images for Splatfest Power show the Cats vs. Dogs and Rice vs. Bread Splatfest Tees and Ink colors despite it having not existed when they were used.
