Saltspray Rig

Saltspray Rig is a multiplayer stage in Splatoon.

Layout
Saltspray Rig appears to be an ocean-based oil rig, with pipes, crates, and suspended platforms resting over a large body of water. It is shaped somewhat like a squid, with two Respawn Points leading into a series of pathways and drop-offs. Pathways stemming from each Respawn Point cannot be accessed by the other team, and branch off into smaller trails that lead to the Top Area and Bottom Area.

Notable Locations

 * Top Area- The Top Area is located opposite from the teams' Respawn Points. It is normally the last area to be claimed, due to it's distance from the spawnpoints. It features a tall structure in the middle, which is heavily contested in the later parts of the game, in order to claim the surrounding turf. There is also a crane swinging a grated platform over the area that seems great for claiming turf and sniping.
 * Bottom Area- The Bottom Area is located between the team's Respawn Points. It is often the first area that is claimed, but is typically forgotten towards the end of the game, due to the battle shifting towards the Top Area. In the last minute, it is easily claimable.

Splat Zones
The Splat Zone for Saltspray Rig sits just below the top area, just inside the "entrance" and before the ramp.

Hazards

 * Chasm- Saltspray Rig's high and low areas are separated by large chasms. Falling into a chasm will kill Inklings.

Tips

 * It is impossible to physically reach the spawn point of the opposing team and the only wau to ink those areas is to spray up at the tips of the walkways, throw bombs, or call in an inkstrike. That means wasting time claiming that turf at the beginning is not as important as other contested area. Wait until the action heats and claim it after a respawn.
 * Since the top area is so contested, getting into it can be difficult once a team has control. However, on the far left and right sides outside the area are paintable walls that can can climbed for sniping or for easy entry into the area.
 * At the top of the aforementioned walls, there are also small paintable walkways that are often overlooked.

Trivia

 * Saltspray Rig was one of the two playable maps during the Splatoon Global Testfire, alongside Walleye Warehouse.
 * Due to the layout of the level, it is the only map to display differently on the gamepad depending on which side the player's team's spawn point is on.
