Trivia

• During the Knight vs. Wizard Splatfest matches, if the player was wearing the Steel Helm and the Steel Greaves, their Splatfest Tee would cosmetically change into the Steel Platemail which retained the Splatfest Tee's abilities. This change did not depend on the player's Splatfest choice.
