Port Mackerel

Port Mackerel is an online multiplayer Stage in Splatoon. Much like Kelp Dome, it includes many corridors, such as ones around large, colored boxes and crates. This stage was not available at the launch of Splatoon, but was patched in on June 1st, 2015 and made its first appearance in the stage rotation at 10pm EST the same day.

Layout
Port Mackerel is a shipping yard and, as such, there are numerous containers littering the field, making for several narrow paths in a grid shape. In the middle is another gridded area and on either side of it is an open area and an inkable forklift that rides back and forth across all three lanes. There also exist two upper paths from either spawn point that run around the perimeter of the map, ending in the middle area.

Tips

 * Due to the numerous narrow alleys, Rollers, Chargers, and Killer Wails are great options on this level.
 * While there isn't much in the way of accessible high ground, the forklifts are an option and getting on shipping containers is possible from the right locations, though they are all covered in plastic on top and cannot be inked.
 * There is a huge area all the way around the spawn point so make sure to ink that too.
 * Due to the narrow lanes and obstructed views, it's easy to bypass enemies completely without either knowing. Use the gamepad to keep tabs on where ink is being sprayed or make use of Echolocators.
