Album version
On Splatune 2 and Octotune, a slightly different version of Muck Warfare is used. The version in albums has slightly louder vocals than the in-game version, and an altered version of the eight-note jingle heard throughout the song.

Muck Warfare (Live)
During live performances, an extended version of Muck Warfare is used. Although each performance is different due to the live bands, they all share the same structure, generally looping once, giving Marina a keytar solo before the second chorus, extending the second chorus, and giving the song a definitive end. The version used in live performances uses the same version of the altered eight-note jingle heard in the album version.

At Tentalive at Tokaigi 2019, a brief introduction is given to all the band members before Marina's keytar solo, allowing each of them to perform a short solo on their respective instruments.

Etymology
Muck Warfare generally refers to the mess made when fighting with ink during Splatfest battles.
