The Splatoon 3 Championship 2023 is an upcoming competitive tournament that will occur during at Nintendo Live 2023 at PAX West on 4 September 2023, involving the top two finishing teams of each of two qualifying events.[1]

Teams

Each of the four participating teams competed in and won one of two qualifying events on the weekends of 3 June 2023 and 10 June 2023.[1][2][3]

Starburst

Even after failing to win the InkTV Resurgence League and having its winning streak against fellow Western teams broken by both Alliance Rogue and Jackpot, Starburst was still considered by many one of the top Western teams. As the only Western team in the Splat World Championship to defeat a Japanese team and reach the Semifinal round, Starburst would later win at Low Tide City 2023 without dropping a single series or game.[4]

With Kyo of Crush Soda substituting for Biscuit, Starburst entered the first qualifying event as a favorite but stumbled during the Ladder stage, losing twice to eventual #3 seed DNA and once to eventual #15 seed Take Ur Meds to finish the stage with an 11-3 match record as the #5 seed in the Bracket stage. However, it would sweep both #12 seed InC Red Sun and #4 seed Hypnosis 3-0 to reach the Double Elimination Stage Winners Semifinal Round, matched up against #1 seed and InkTV Resurgence League champions Jackpot. In a mostly back-and-forth series, Starburst would prevail 3-2. Then, it would defeat #7 seed Last Resort 3-1, earning the first spot in the Splatoon 3 Championship 2023.[2][5]

Jackpot

Jackpot entered the first qualifying event on a new high, having won the InkTV Resurgence League the previous month in dominating fashion, defeating its fellow Western giants Crush Soda, Starburst, and Alliance Rogue while losing only two games. Suddenly touted as the best of the West, it was also selected as one of four Western teams to qualify for the Splat World Championship.[6]

It would continue its dominant streak over Western competition by winning all twelve of its matches in the Ladder stage – including over eventual #4 seed Hypnosis and eventual #8 seed Tongan Beliebers – before sweeping #16 seed BreakPoint and #9 seed Smoothie in the Bracket stage. However, #5 seed Starburst would exact revenge on Jackpot 3-2 in the Winners Semifinal (see above). After dropping down to the Losers Semifinal, Jackpot would drop the first game to #11 seed Duck Gang before winning the next three in a row to advance to the Losers Final, where it would sweep #7 seed Last Resort to claim the second ticket to the Splatoon 3 Championship 2023.
