Learning Curve is a song by C-Side.

Description

Learning Curve is C-Side's version of Battle Defeat. If the player wins a battle, Rinse/Repeat will play instead, and the player's team along with their emotes, weapons, Fits, and Splashtags will be showcased. Learning Curve is more of an upbeat battle song, though it still conveys gloominess like in Splatoon. At twelve seconds in, the guitar and bass cut out and are replaced by a solo drum track, similar to Rinse/Repeat, Ego Overboard, and Still Swimmin'.
