'''Saltspray Rig''' is a multiplayer [[stage]] in ''[[Splatoon]]''.
Saltspray Rig is an ocean-based oil rig, with pipes, crates, and suspended platforms resting over a large body of water.

[[File:Saltsprayrigmap.png|thumb|Saltspray Rig overview.]]
Saltspray Rig appears to be an ocean-based oil rig, with pipes, crates, and suspended platforms resting over a large body of water. It is shaped somewhat like a squid, with two Respawn Points leading into a series of pathways and drop-offs. There are two elevators located in the middle of the map to quickly move from the Bottom Area to the Top Area. Pathways stemming from each Respawn Point cannot be accessed by the other team, and branch off into smaller trails that lead to the Top Area and Bottom Area.
 
Unlike most other [[Stage|stages]] in the [[Splatoon (series)|''Splatoon'' series]] that feature rotational symmetry, Saltspray Rig's stage layout is laterally symmetrical, with the exception of the obstacles in the top area. Saltspray Rig is shaped like a squid, with two [[spawn point]]s leading into a series of pathways and drop-offs. The spawn point area is not accessible to the enemy team, except in [[Rainmaker]] mode. There are two elevators located in the middle of the map to quickly move from the bottom area to the top area. Pathways stemming from each spawn point cannot be accessed by the other team, and branch off into smaller trails that lead to the top area and bottom area.
 
The top area is located opposite the teams' spawn points. It is normally the last area to be claimed due to its distance from the spawn points. It features a tall structure in the middle which is heavily contested in the later parts of the game to claim the surrounding turf. There is also a moving platform that a player can use to claim turf quickly, but in turn, exposes the player, as the player will fall through the platform if they turn into a squid.
 
The bottom area is located between the team's spawn points. It is often the first area that is claimed but is typically forgotten towards the end of the game, due to the battle shifting towards the top area. In the last minute, it is easily claimable. The starting areas in Saltspray Rig cannot be reached on foot by the opposing team, so there is a lot of turf that can be easily claimed during the game. A team with a [[charger]], [[splatling]], [[Inkstrike]] or [[Inkzooka]], though, may be able to claim some turf if the opposing team is not paying attention. Both areas contain paths leading to the bottom area and top area. If a team is not careful, the opposing team may launch an Inkstrike in the area near the end of a battle, claiming some turf which the players cannot claim after leaving their starting area. The only way a player can get back up their team's starting area is to [[Super Jump]] to their team's respective spawn or one of their teammates, or a [[Squid Beakon]]. There is an abyss surrounding the stage as a hazard for players who fall in.
 
This stage puts the Alpha team at a slight disadvantage. The Bravo team has more viable right-side peeking points, as [[Inkling]]s are right-handed, so they can peek around a wall and be mostly protected. Peeking to the left, on the other hand, fully exposes them, leaving them open for attack. Additionally, the Bravo team can use the two moving platforms faster at the start of a match.


===Hazards===
==Ranked Battle terrain==
Saltspray Rig's high and low areas are separated by large chasms. Falling into a chasm will kill [[Inkling]]s.
[[File:Saltspray Rig.jpg|thumb|Saltspray Rig in different terrain.]]


==Notable Locations==
In [[Ranked Battle]]s, specifications for the terrain or placement of objects are different between the modes; these changes create new paths or new objects to take cover behind.
[[File:SaltsprayRigp3.jpg|thumb|An [[Inkling]] in the Top Area, next to the moving grated platform.]]
*'''Top Area''' – Top Area is located opposite from the teams' [[Respawn Point]]s. It is normally the last area to be claimed, due to its distance from the spawnpoints. It features a tall structure in the middle, which is heavily contested in the later parts of the game, in order to claim the surrounding turf. There is also a moving platform that a player can use to claim turf quickly, but in turn, exposes the player, as the player will fall through the platform if they turn into a squid.
*'''Bottom Area''' – The Bottom Area is located between the team's Respawn Points. It is often the first area that is claimed, but is typically forgotten towards the end of the game, due to the battle shifting towards the '''Top Area'''. In the last minute, it is easily claimable.
*'''Starting Areas''' – The Starting Areas in Saltspray Rig cannot be reached on foot by the opposing team, so there's a lot of turf that can be easily claimed during the game. A team with a [[charger]] or [[Inkzooka]], though, may be able to claim some turf if the opposing team is not paying attention. Both areas contain paths leading to the 'Bottom Area and Top Area. If a team is not careful, the opposing team may launch an [[Inkstrike]] in the area near the end of a battle, claiming some turf which the players cannot claim after leaving their '''Starting Area'''. The only way a player can get back up their team's '''Starting Area''' is to Super Jump to their team's respective spawn or to one of their teammates.

[[File:Map Saltspray Rig Splat Zones Overhead.jpg|thumb|200px|right|Overhead map of Saltspray Rig splat zones.]]
===[[Splat Zones]]===
===[[Splat Zones]]===
The Splat Zone for Saltspray Rig sits just below the top area, just inside the "entrance" and before the ramp. It can be easily taken by players shooting ink on ledges on the opposing sides, but if the front of the zone is not protected, the opposing team can easily take control of the zone.

===[[Tower Control]]===
===[[Tower Control]]===
The tower starts at the bottom of the "T" just before the '''Top Area'''. When taken, the tower briefly travels around the "T" and down the pathway towards the enemy base before turning and going down the side of the map. It then begins traveling on the lower pathways that lead to the bottom area. Each team's goal-zone is directly below the exit opposite from the '''Bottom Area''' when going there. Boxes have been added so that players can easily attack the other team if they've taken the tower or vice versa. This means that the action on this map is condensed to a small area, making the '''Top''' and '''Bottom Areas''' go almost completely unused.

===[[Rainmaker]]===
===[[Rainmaker]]===
The Rainmaker weapon starts down by where the elevators are, by the Bottom Area. Platforms containing the pedestals are built next to the spawn point. Walls have been added so that a team can reach their opponents' base. Also, walls block off the far side alley, but this alley is a bad strategic point anyway.
The [[Rainmaker (weapon)|Rainmaker]] starts on the middle platform that the elevators rise to. Platforms containing the Rainmaker goal pedestals are built next to the spawn point. Walls have been added so that a team can reach their opponents' base. Walls block off the far side alley, forcing players to leave the spawn area through more direct routes.

Saltspray Rig underwent a series of changes between its development period and release.
 
===Pre-release version===
The pre-release version included many differences, such as:
 
* There were much fewer vertical pipes to swim up.
* The [[spawn point]]s were closer together.
* Four small areas were located near teams' bases, accessed by thin, curved walkways.
* The bottom area was not present.
* The routes that currently allow players to access the top area from either side were much less detailed.
* Most edges were secured by presumably [[grate]]d fences.
* The top area had fewer crates than in the final version.

==Tips==
===Release version===
*It is impossible to reach the spawn point of the opposing team, and the only way to ink those areas is to spray up at the tips of the walkways, throw bombs, use a [[charger]] or [[Inkzooka]], or call in an [[Inkstrike]]. That means wasting time claiming that turf at the beginning is not as important as other contested area. Wait until the action heats and claim it after a respawn.
Saltspray Rig was released with the launch of {{S}}.
*Since the top area is so contested in [[Turf War]]s, getting into it can be difficult once a team has control. However, on the far left and right sides outside the area are inkable walls that can can climbed for sniping or for easy entry into the area.
*At the top of the aforementioned walls, there are also small inkable walkways that are often overlooked. Hiding in these walkways on the opposing team's side can prove to be a strategic move, allowing players to attack approaching enemies.
*Towards the back of the map, there is a platform attached to a crane. If a player climbs the tallest stack of boxes in this area, it is possible for them to get on said platform. This is a useful sniping spot for chargers, and it can also be a good location to put a [[sprinkler]]. However, this platform is a [[grate]] and players who turn into a squid will fall through.


==Trivia==
===Maps===
*Saltspray Rig was one of the two playable maps during the [[Splatoon Global Testfire]], alongside [[Walleye Warehouse]].
<gallery>
*Unlike every other [[stage]], Saltspray Rig does not feature both X and Z axis symmetry; for this reason, teams have different views of the map from their [[Spawn Point]]s. Because of this layout, the [[Wii U GamePad]]'s map does not look the same for both teams, like it does in other stages.

|M12A=You mean spend hours catching a cold...
Saltspray Rig is derived from the nouns 'saltspray' and 'rig'. Saltspray is salt that comes from the ocean waves, and a rig is a structure housing equipment used to drill or extract oil from underground.

|C2face=Normal
シオノメ油田 ''Shionome Yuden'' is derived from 'Shionome' (the point where two ocean currents meet) and 'oil field', an area deep underground in the ocean for oil to be drilled or extracted.

|C12B=Ah, staring at the ocean is so therapautic.
|M12B=So is therapy.

Saltspray Rig is a multiplayer stage in Splatoon.

Saltspray Rig is an ocean-based oil rig, with pipes, crates, and suspended platforms resting over a large body of water.

Layout

Saltspray Rig overview.

Unlike most other stages in the Splatoon series that feature rotational symmetry, Saltspray Rig's stage layout is laterally symmetrical, with the exception of the obstacles in the top area. Saltspray Rig is shaped like a squid, with two spawn points leading into a series of pathways and drop-offs. The spawn point area is not accessible to the enemy team, except in Rainmaker mode. There are two elevators located in the middle of the map to quickly move from the bottom area to the top area. Pathways stemming from each spawn point cannot be accessed by the other team, and branch off into smaller trails that lead to the top area and bottom area.

The top area is located opposite the teams' spawn points. It is normally the last area to be claimed due to its distance from the spawn points. It features a tall structure in the middle which is heavily contested in the later parts of the game to claim the surrounding turf. There is also a moving platform that a player can use to claim turf quickly, but in turn, exposes the player, as the player will fall through the platform if they turn into a squid.

The bottom area is located between the team's spawn points. It is often the first area that is claimed but is typically forgotten towards the end of the game, due to the battle shifting towards the top area. In the last minute, it is easily claimable. The starting areas in Saltspray Rig cannot be reached on foot by the opposing team, so there is a lot of turf that can be easily claimed during the game. A team with a charger, splatling, Inkstrike or Inkzooka, though, may be able to claim some turf if the opposing team is not paying attention. Both areas contain paths leading to the bottom area and top area. If a team is not careful, the opposing team may launch an Inkstrike in the area near the end of a battle, claiming some turf which the players cannot claim after leaving their starting area. The only way a player can get back up their team's starting area is to Super Jump to their team's respective spawn or one of their teammates, or a Squid Beakon. There is an abyss surrounding the stage as a hazard for players who fall in.

This stage puts the Alpha team at a slight disadvantage. The Bravo team has more viable right-side peeking points, as Inklings are right-handed, so they can peek around a wall and be mostly protected. Peeking to the left, on the other hand, fully exposes them, leaving them open for attack. Additionally, the Bravo team can use the two moving platforms faster at the start of a match.

Ranked Battle terrain

Saltspray Rig in different terrain.

In Ranked Battles, specifications for the terrain or placement of objects are different between the modes; these changes create new paths or new objects to take cover behind.

Splat Zones

The Splat Zone for Saltspray Rig sits just below the top area, just inside the "entrance" and before the ramp. It can be easily taken by players shooting ink on ledges on the opposing sides, but if the front of the zone is not protected, the opposing team can easily take control of the zone.

Tower Control

The Tower starts at the bottom of the T-shaped section just before the top area. When taken, the Tower briefly travels around the T and down the pathway towards the enemy base before turning and going down the side of the map. It then begins traveling on the lower pathways that lead to the bottom area. Each team's goal zone is directly below the exit opposite from the bottom area when going there. Boxes have been added so that players can easily attack the other team if they have taken the Tower or vice versa. This means that the action on this stage is condensed to a small area, making the top and bottom areas go almost completely unused.

Rainmaker

The Rainmaker starts on the middle platform that the elevators rise to. Platforms containing the Rainmaker goal pedestals are built next to the spawn point. Walls have been added so that a team can reach their opponents' base. Walls block off the far side alley, forcing players to leave the spawn area through more direct routes.

The pre-release version included many differences, such as:

  • There were much fewer vertical pipes to swim up.
  • The spawn points were closer together.
  • Four small areas were located near teams' bases, accessed by thin, curved walkways.
  • The bottom area was not present.
  • The routes that currently allow players to access the top area from either side were much less detailed.
  • Most edges were secured by presumably grated fences.
  • The top area had fewer crates than in the final version.
  • A pre-release version of Saltspray Rig.

Trivia

Etymology

Saltspray Rig is derived from the nouns 'saltspray' and 'rig'. Saltspray is salt that comes from the ocean waves, and a rig is a structure housing equipment used to drill or extract oil from underground.

シオノメ油田 Shionome Yuden is derived from 'Shionome' (the point where two ocean currents meet) and 'oil field', an area deep underground in the ocean for oil to be drilled or extracted.
