History

For its tenth entry, and by also coincidentally occurring during the Thanksgiving Weekend, the BnS staff decided to introduce prizes and giveaways for both participating teams and the viewer audience. To achieve such, they partnered with freelance artists in the western Splatoon community, Etsy shop owners, and by doing a donation incentive during the stream of the BnS Weekly #9 tournament, which resulted in over $800 in donations.
