Freshness

In, Freshness refers to a player's skill ranking with a particular Main Weapon, replacing Vibe from Splatoon. Similarly to Vibe, it increases by 1 when a player wins a match and decreases by a variable amount based on the player's current Freshness rating. However, unlike with Vibe, Freshness is tracked for each specific Main Weapon and does not reset. It also changes only from Regular Battles and not from Ranked Battles or League Battles.

Whenever a player reaches a new Freshness rating with a weapon, they earn a large one-time Battle Points bonus. Losing and regaining a rating does not grant the bonus a second time.
