Ranked Battle

Ranked Battle will be able to be accessed by Level 10 players upon its release by Nintendo. The modes included in this category will require a higher level of strategy compared to regular modes, and wins and losses will be 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 will be released when a large amount of players have reached Level 10.

• Splat Zones: A mode similar to King of the Hill games.
