==Description==
Challenges are limited-time competitions of standard modes with unique in-match conditions. They can be played solo or with a team, and feature a two-hour ranked play window similar to League Battle, but unlike League Battle's constant rotations, the windows only occur at a few specific times during a [[season]]. The monthly event battles that appeared in {{S2}}{{'s}} [[League Battle]] mode were confirmed to return as Challenges.<ref name="natweet"></ref> Winning 5 games in a Challenge awards the player with a Shell-Out Token. Just like Anarchy Battles, Challenges unlock when a player reaches [[Level]] 10.

Challenge

Test yourself with limited-time battles!
Type Online multiplayer mode
Players 1-4
Ranked No
Weapons
Controllers Joy-Con
Nintendo Switch Pro Controller
Release Date 3 June 2023 (playable only during event)

Challenge mode is an event mode which was added in Sizzle Season 2023. Officially a replacement for Splatoon 2's League Battle,[1] Challenges are limited-time competitions of standard modes with unique in-match conditions. They can be played solo or with a team, and feature a two-hour ranked play window similar to League Battle, but unlike League Battle's constant rotations, the windows only occur at a few specific times during a season. Winning five games in a Challenge awards the player with a Shell-Out Token.

Description

Challenges are limited-time competitions of standard modes with unique in-match conditions. They can be played solo or with a team, and feature a two-hour ranked play window similar to League Battle, but unlike League Battle's constant rotations, the windows only occur at a few specific times during a season. The monthly event battles that appeared in Splatoon 2's League Battle mode were confirmed to return as Challenges.[1] Winning 5 games in a Challenge awards the player with a Shell-Out Token. Just like Anarchy Battles, Challenges unlock when a player reaches Level 10.

Rankings

All three timeframes per Challenge feature a list of the Top 100 Teams, Duos, and Solo players respectively.

List of rankings:

Social media announcements

After a special Challenge has concluded, social media channels of three regions will generally announce the teams that placed first, second, and third with the highest Challenge Power for a certain timeslot. They will also announce the team with the middle-ranking among all teams as the Average Roe award. The announcement is accompanied by in-game screenshots of the teams posing on the stages that were available for the Challenge.

The special Challenges that have gotten these announcements are New Season Challenge and Monthly Challenge. To be eligible for announcements on social media, participants have to join and play as a group of 3 to 4 players where half or more have set their Splatfest region to one that matches one of the social media channels.

"3 Challenges in a row" Monthly Challenge

"Summer Holidays Challenge Rush"

Things may have an official name in another language, but currently have no official English name.
English translations of these names are unofficial.

A "3 Challenges in a row" Monthly Challenge[2] is a rerun of past Challenges with largely the same stages and modes scheduled for three consecutive days. These reruns were previously solely announced on Japanese social media as a "Challenge Rush." While they are meant to be a way for players who missed these past Challenges to still experience them, anyone can participate in them.
