[[File:Map Bluefin Depot Turf War Overhead.png|300px|thumb|The map of {{PAGENAME}} at [[Turf War]].]]
Bluefin Depot is an abandoned coal mine consisting of four different levels, the two uppermost of which can only be accessed by the enemy team by [[grate]]d walkways. The lowest level is divided by a body of water and requires traversing the third level to switch parts. The lowest level of Bluefin Depot is where most of the fighting between the two teams takes place. It consists of two platforms that are separated from each other by a small body of [[water]] that cannot be jumped over. The level just above is where all traveling between both sides of the stage is made. [[Charger]]s cannot snipe too much from here, mainly because of the iron bridge running over the middle of the stage. Each team's base is comprised of two levels. The top level is where players respawn; it can only be reached via a grated walkway in the middle. The bottom level is where players can get to the different sides of the depot and can only be reached by a grated walkway on the opposing team's right.


Bluefin Depot is an abandoned coal mine consisting of 4 different levels, the two uppermost most of which can only be accessed by the enemy team by [[grate]] walkways. The lowest level is divided by a body of water and requires traversing the third level to switch parts.
==Ranked Battle terrain==
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.


===Hazards===
===Splat Zones===
[[Water]] can be found all around Bluefin Depot. Players can easily fall in if they're not paying attention, especially if they are on a grated walkway or near the water's edge.
The Splat Zone in Bluefin Depot can be found on the side that is closest to the ocean. Two ramps leading towards the Splat Zone are located on the other side of the stage. Walls have also been added on both sides of the stage to help each team attack the other, and for mobility. Blocks have also been added to the bottom level of the bases prevent sniping from each base and to the lower level to even the ramp located on each side.


==Notable Locations==
===Tower Control===
*'''Lower Level''' – The lowest level of Bluefin Depot is most likely where most of the fighting between the two teams will take place. It consists of two platforms that are separated from each other by a small body of water that cannot be jumped over.
In Tower Control, the Tower starts in the center, above the water and can be accessed by an added bridge. Once claimed, it moves to the right and up the walls. Then, it crosses over to the left side and continues up until it reaches the goal. Inkable blocks are added to the uninkable block on the left of the spawn point to make base invading easier.
*'''Upper Level''' – The level just above the lowest level of Bluefin Depot is where all traveling between both sides of the level below is made. [[Charger]]s cannot snipe too much from here, mainly because of the iron bridge running over the middle of the map.
*'''Base''' – Each team's base is comprised of a top level and a bottom level. The top level is where players respawn; it can only be reached via a grated walkway in the middle. The bottom level is where players can get to the different sides of the depot and can only be reached by a grated walkway on the opposing team's right. In Rainmaker, a box and grated walkway leading up to this section is added on the left.


==Ranked Battle==
===Rainmaker===
===[[Splat Zones]]===
In Rainmaker, the [[Rainmaker (weapon)|weapon]] is located in the middle of the stage. The control points are directly in front of the [[spawn point]]s on each side. In this mode, there have been a few changes to the map, most notably the middle where the weapon is located. There are pathways, as well as a platform where the Rainmaker sits and ramps where players can get on each side of the stage with ease. A box and grated walkway leading up to this section are added on the left.


The Splat Zone in Bluefin Depot can be found on the side that's closest to the ocean. Two ramps leading towards the Splat Zone are located on the other side of the map. Walls have also been added on both sides of the map to help each team attack the other team, and for mobility. Blocks have also been added to the bottom level of the bases prevent sniping from each base and to the Lower Level to even the ramp located on each side.

==Tips==

*The elevated train tracks that cross over the middle of the map are a great place to throw [[Sprinkler]]s to cover the Lower Level on either side of the map.
*The water separating each side of the Lower Level is narrow enough so that players on one side can snipe or throw [[bomb]]s at unsuspecting players across the way.
*The stairs leading down from each team's [[Spawn Point]] are difficult to cover, making them a prime target for [[Inkstrike]]s or [[Sprinkler]]s.
*High walls keep players out of the Upper Level from below. Placing an [[Ink Mine]] at the top will keep out members of the opposing team. Throwing a [[bomb]] or [[Point Sensor]] up before ascending is therefore a good idea.
*On each side of the Lower Level in the center are two thin perpendicular walls that form a plus sign when viewed from above. Use them as cover when performing an [[Inkstrike]] and ink and swim up them to ambush foes who expect you to maneuver around them.
*It's possible to get behind the opposing team's respawn point. In order to do it, you have to paint the broken brick wall near the respawn point on the step like part. Moving along the wall carefully so as not to get bounced back from the forcfield or fall off, you move to the back of the wall and hop down behind the respawn point. This is completely useless, however, as opponents can easily splat you.

==Trivia==
*Evening and night variants of this map exist in [[Octo Valley (mode)|Octo Valley]], in the missions [[Octoling Uprising]] and [[Undeniable Flying Object]] respectively.
**At the end of Undeniable Flying Object, after the [[Octostriker]] has been defeated and the music stops, some unusual sounds can be heard: an erratic clanking and a faint moan, which are slightly louder towards the edge of the UFO. These sounds are also heard when using [[Recon (mode)|Recon]] to explore Bluefin Depot during a [[Splatfest]]. Given [[Callie]]'s comments on the [[stage]], they may be the result of paranormal happenings or simply the deterioration of old structures.
*The map's name is a reference to the real-life [[Wikipedia:Bluefin tuna|bluefin tuna]].
*Bluefin Depot was indirectly revealed in the ''[[Splatoon]]'' [[Nintendo Direct]], when the GamePad map of it was shown.
*Bluefin Depot and [[Saltspray Rig]] are the farthest [[stage]]s from [[Inkopolis]] and can only be reached by train.

Bluefin Depot is a multiplayer stage in Splatoon. It is an abandoned coal mine with railway track above it. A river splits the stage down the middle, with the spawn areas connecting the left and right paths.

Layout

Bluefin Depot is an abandoned coal mine consisting of four different levels, the two uppermost of which can only be accessed by the enemy team by grated walkways. The lowest level is divided by a body of water and requires traversing the third level to switch parts. The lowest level of Bluefin Depot is where most of the fighting between the two teams takes place. It consists of two platforms that are separated from each other by a small body of water that cannot be jumped over. The level just above is where all traveling between both sides of the stage is made. Chargers cannot snipe too much from here, mainly because of the iron bridge running over the middle of the stage. Each team's base is comprised of two levels. The top level is where players respawn; it can only be reached via a grated walkway in the middle. The bottom level is where players can get to the different sides of the depot and can only be reached by a grated walkway on the opposing team's right.

Ranked Battle 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 in Bluefin Depot can be found on the side that is closest to the ocean. Two ramps leading towards the Splat Zone are located on the other side of the stage. Walls have also been added on both sides of the stage to help each team attack the other, and for mobility. Blocks have also been added to the bottom level of the bases prevent sniping from each base and to the lower level to even the ramp located on each side.

Tower Control

In Tower Control, the Tower starts in the center, above the water and can be accessed by an added bridge. Once claimed, it moves to the right and up the walls. Then, it crosses over to the left side and continues up until it reaches the goal. Inkable blocks are added to the uninkable block on the left of the spawn point to make base invading easier.

Rainmaker

In Rainmaker, the weapon is located in the middle of the stage. The control points are directly in front of the spawn points on each side. In this mode, there have been a few changes to the map, most notably the middle where the weapon is located. There are pathways, as well as a platform where the Rainmaker sits and ramps where players can get on each side of the stage with ease. A box and grated walkway leading up to this section are added on the left.
