Ranked Battle

Ranked Battle is a category of modes in Splatoon. It is accessible by level 10 players. The modes included in this category require a higher level of strategy compared to regular modes, and wins and losses will are counted toward players' ranks. Players begin with a 'C-' rating, but are able to improve and regress based on how well they perform. Ranked Battle was released when a large amount of players reached level 10, on June 1st, 2015.

List of Modes

 * Splat Zones - Plays similarly to the King of the Hill mode from other video games. It revolves around central "zones", which players must attempt to cover in ink. Whoever retains the zone for a certain amount of time wins.
 * Tower Control - An Inkling must take control of one tower and ride it towards the enemy base. The first team to get the tower to their enemy's base wins.
 * Rainmaker - No information as of yet.
