Splatfest Battle is a mode exclusive to Splatfest events in the Splatoon series.

Description

Over the course of the Splatoon series, Turf War is the only available mode in Splatfest Battle. Over the course of the years, mechanics have been added and updated, affecting gameplay and the final results of each Splatfest.

Splatoon

In Splatoon, Splatfest Battle was the sole mode available during Splatfest events. Largely the same as standard Turf War battles, Splatfest Battles featured nighttime lighting. The only music track that would play during Splatfest Battles was Ink Me Up, with Now or Never replaced with a Squid Sisters cover. Alongside Popularity, the total Wins determined the winning side of a Splatfest by turning the percentage of the total theme votes and wins into points of the same amount.

Version 1.0.0 to 1.3.0

The points gained through wins were multiplyed by two. Adding the points from Popularity and Wins together determined the winner through the most aquired points.

Version 2.0.0 to 2.1.0

The points gained through wins were adjusted to be multiplyed by four, increasing the impact of Splatfest Battle on the final results of a Splatfest.

Version 2.2.0 onwards

The points gained through wins were adjusted again to be multiplyed by six, further increasing the impact of Splatfest Battle on the final results.

Mechanics

Splatfest Power

Splatfest Power Level of the team shown before starting a Splatfest Turf War.

Main article: Power level

Splatfest Power was a feature introduced in version 2.6.0 of Splatoon as a way of tracking players' skill during Splatfests, replacing the Vibe meter. While Splatfest matchmaking was previously based on play styles, players were then matched based on similar Splatfest Power levels. It was initially determined by one's rank and may rise or fall depending on how well one did in battles.

After each Splatfest Battle, players on the winning team got roughly ten points toward their Splatfest Power and the losing team lost roughly ten, depending on the difference between the two teams' Splatfest power level, while the player on the winning team with the highest Splatfest Power gained an additional one to two points.

If the game takes too long to find an enemy team for Splatfest, members of the same team will battle each other with regular ink colors. Players will still earn Splatfest points for these, but no Clout will be awarded. Before version 4.0.0, the win was not counted when tallying up the results. The reason for this is likely to prevent the more popular team from having the decided advantage, as the more popular team will be more likely to have to battle each other.

The top 100 players with the highest Splatfest Power were shown on SplatNet and on the social network sites of Splatoon.

Splatoon 2

In Splatoon 2, Splatfest Battle would return from Splatoon, though now split into two modes. The team that won most battles in respective modes were rewarded with one point each. Alongside the Popularity, which also rewarded one point to the team with more votes, the team with the most points won the Splatfest.

The only music tracks that would play during Splatfest Battles were Acid Hues, Muck Warfare and Ebb & Flow. An Off the Hook cover of Now or Never as well as covers of the victory and loss themes would play in their place, titled Fest Zest and Party's Over.

Version 1.0.0 to 4.0.0

At start, Splatfest Battle was split into Solo and Team modes. Solo mode worked like Splatoon's Splatfest Battle mode: the player would be automatically matched with three other players and then battle against a group of four random players from the opposing team. Unlike the original game, players from the same team were not automatically matched up in the same lobby after a match. Team mode required four players on one another's friend lists to join a private lobby before being matched up against another team of four.

4.0.0 onwards

Following version 4.0.0, the Splatfest Battle system was reworked into two new modes called Normal and Pro. Normal mode lets the player enter battles either solo or with friends by joining together in a private lobby before entering a match. Players from the same team regardless of having grouped up or not can continue being matched up together in the same lobby if they choose to continue after the end of a match. Pro mode works identically to how Solo mode worked before this version; the player cannot team up with friends and is automatically matched with three other players on the same team. Players from the same team cannot match up in the same lobby after a match. Instead of the total wins, each teams Clout decided the winner of respective modes.

Splatfest Power

Splatfest Power returned in Splatoon 2, in which the player's initial Splatfest Power was based on their performance in their first seven Splatfest matches. After a Splatfest's results were announced the top 100 players would be displayed in SplatNet 2.

As of version 5.3.1, to adjust fairness in matchmaking and to prevent improper behavior, the names and levels of all players in a match are not shown on the lobby waiting screen and are replaced with question marks if the player's Splatfest Power is above 2,200. Due to this, players can battle against people blocked in their Nintendo Switch system settings as long as their power is also this high.

Clout

Clout is a mechanic introduced in version 4.0.0 of Splatoon 2 wherein clout points are awarded to the winning team depending on the Splatfest Power of the losing team. The mechanic was introduced as part of a new system to determine the winner in Splatfests based on point tallies, as opposed to the previous system that was exclusively based on the two teams' win rates. Clout is counted separately for two of the available Splatfest Battle modes, Normal and Pro. Battling against the same Splatfest team does not contribute to the Clout score.

In Normal mode, players can multiply their Clout by a factor of up to ×2.0 based on the Synergy Bonus they get if they win the match. Synergy Bonuses are earned by having matching gear, weapons, and appearance, which are also tied into the team names players get during Splatfests. An example of the highest possible Synergy bonus would be if all four players were Inkling boys with the topknot hairstyle and dressed in the Soccer Headband and Blue Sea Slugs with the N-ZAP '85. The nickname would be "The Soccer-Loving Blue-Slug Gray-Zappin' Topknot gang."

Conditions	Synergy Bonus factor
Either hairstyle, gender, or species matching	+ 0.1×
Main weapon type matching	+ 0.2×
Sub weapons matching	+ 0.2×
Special weapons matching	+ 0.2×
All different main weapon types	+ 0.2×
Only two main weapons matching	+ 0.1× (Counts only for the teammates matching)
Only three main weapons matching	+ 0.2× (Counts only for the teammates matching)
All main weapons matching	+ 0.3×
Headgear genre matching	+ 0.2×
Headgear brand matching	+ 0.2×
Only two headgear matching	+ 0.1× (Counts only for the teammates matching)
Only three headgear matching	+ 0.2× (Counts only for the teammates matching)
All headgear matching	+ 0.3×
Shoe genre matching	+ 0.2×
Shoe brand matching	+ 0.2×
Only two shoes matching	+ 0.1× (Counts only for the teammates matching)
Only three shoes matching	+ 0.2× (Counts only for the teammates matching)
All shoes matching	+ 0.3×

The multiplier begins at ×1.0, where each matching element adds to the factor. For example, if a team has all matching hairstyles and all matching shoes, they will get a Synergy Bonus of ×1.0 + ×0.1 + ×0.3 = ×1.4.

10× and 100× Battles

Following the 4.0.0 update Open and Pro modes occasionally featured 10× battles, with 100× battles occurring even more rarely, wherein the clout score awarded was multiplied by a factor of 10 or 100 respectively.

100× Battles occurred every ten minutes at their introduction, but around June 2019 were changed to occur every five minutes, while 10× Battles occur more frequently. The 100× Battle rate was later increased again in celebration of Final Fest, where approximately ten 100× Battles could occur in a minute. This increased rate was still in place for the special encore Splatfests that were held afterwards as well as the Super Mushroom vs. Super Star Splatfest. The Synergy Bonus is rounded to the nearest integer before the 10× or 100× bonus is applied. Losing a 10× or 100× Battle adds no bonus to Clout.

In Splatoon 2, the winners of both 10× and 100× battles would be featured in a newsflash that is displayed as text in the lobby, as text on the SplatNet 2 app and as an image on the Splatfest booth in the Square. Newsflashes of players who win a 100× Battle are displayed for all players within a Splatfest, while newsflashes of players who win a 10× Battle are displayed for themselves and their friends who are playing during the same Splatfest. If a player won a 100× Battle, the newsflash of their victory would display on their session for around half an hour before displaying winners of other battles. The news images of the winners from these battles showed the players striking different poses, where the winners from a 100× Battle would be holding a large check.

Splatfest team names

Main article: List of Splatoon 2 Splatfest team names

Splatoon 2's version 4.0.0 introduced special team names for individual teams of four (not to be confused with the overall Splatfest team) which were assigned if the whole team has matching gear, weapons or appearance.

Splatfest team names are separated into five main categories, each of which has one slot in the final team name, meaning there can only be up to five name parts in a team name. Under these categories are several sub-series that determine what the displayed name unit should be if there are more matching properties within a category.

Main category	Sub-series and priority
Headgear	Headgear name > brand > genre
Shoes	Shoe name > brand > genre
Weapons	Main weapons > specials ? subs ? weapon types ? different weapon types
Player customization	Hairstyles > species > gender
Group name	(Automatically assigned if the player has any of the previous categories)

For example, if everyone on the team has matching hairstyles, species, and gender, the game will only choose the hairstyle for the team's name. If a team only has matching species and gender, the game will choose species for the team's name.

The Synergy Bonus and Splatfest team names are closely related as they are both determined by the same factors, but not everything that warrants a Synergy Bonus has an equivalent team name. Some bonuses are earned by just having two or three teammates with matching properties, while Splatfest team names are only earned if all teammates match.

Splatoon 3

In Splatoon 3 there are three different Splatfest Battle modes: Open, Pro and Tricolor. Open and Pro are available for the entirety of the Splatfest, while Tricolor is only available after the Halftime Report. Open and Pro function identically to Splatoon 2's Normal and Pro modes. Players that enter Tricolor mode will play a Tricolor Turf War, with the attackers and defenders for the match being random, if the leading team at the Halftime Report is the defending team during the match, the winning team will receive a 1.5× clout bonus. Pro mode is unaffected by the Halftime Report, and Tricolor Turf Wars will not occur there.

Before version 2.0.0, only members of the second and third-place teams could select the Tricolor Battle mode, where they were guaranteed to be on the attacking teams. The leading team would randomly play a Tricolor Battle when selecting Open mode, where they would always be on the defending team.

The only music tracks that play during Splatfest Battles are Fins in the Air, Till Depth Do Us Part, Liquid Sunshine (as of Nessie vs. Aliens vs. Bigfoot), Big Betrayal (as of Shiver vs. Frye vs. Big Man) and Suffer No Fools (as of Lightly Salted vs. Consommé vs. Salted Seaweed / Drums vs. Guitar vs. Keyboard). Deep Cut covers of Now or Never, the victory and loss themes would play in their place, titled Ego Overboard and Still Swimmin'. Unique versions of the victory and loss themes performed by each idol individually were heard in the Shiver vs. Frye vs. Big Man, and subsequently, every time the player wins a 10×, 100× or 333× Battle.

As of Version 9.0.0, players who reach Ruler or higher rank can choose to board a Splatfest float and take commemorative pictures with Deep Cut and the last team they played with. Reaching Ruler +1 or higher unlocks new poses; if the player has downloaded Splatoon 3: Expansion Pass, they may select Squid Sisters and Off the Hook themed poses as well.

Splatfest Power

Splatfest Power returned in Splatoon 3, working similarly to Splatoon 2. The player's Splatfest Power is based on their performance in their first seven Splatfest matches, though it is only listed in Pro mode. After the results of a Splatfest are announced, the top 100 players' rankings are made available in SplatNet 3.

Clout

The clout system from Splatoon 2 returns for Splatoon 3's Splatfest events unchanged. The new Tricolor Battles award more clout by a factor of 1.5× if the defending team is determined to be in the lead per the Halftime Report, referred to as a 1.5× Bonus.

10×, 100×, and 333× Battles

“	SRL checking in now that the Splatfest is live. Did you know that a 10x Battle can randomly occur? Our Stats dept. is still calculating the probability of one happening, but if you see one, get ready to splat with everything you've got - you could earn 10x the Clout! Winning a 10x Battle also earns everyone on your team a festival shell. And if you team up with other players with lots of festival shells, the odds of triggering a 100x Battle increase! What happens if both teams trigger a 100x Battle at the same time? An ultra-rare 333x Battle! Now, if you play in a 100x or a 333x Battle, you'll lose all your festival shells. But isn't it worth it for a chance at all that Clout? (Trust us - it is.) Plus, 100x or 333x winners will also get a Splatfest Star above their nickname for the rest of the Splatfest. So cool!	”
— @SplatoonNA on Twitter

The 10× and 100× Battles slightly differ in Splatoon 3; 10× Battles are much more common and will reward the winning players with festival shells. These increase the odds of a 100× Battle occurring. 333× Battles can rarely occur if both teams manage to activate a 100× Battle at once, with the odds increasing depending on how many festival shells each player has. When winning a 100× or 333× Battle, the winning team will perform a unique victory emote. 10×, 100× and 333× battles can not occur during a Tricolor Turf War. Winning a 10×, 100×, or 333× battle will reward the player with 1, 10 and 33 conch shells respectively. After a player has won a 100x or 333x battle, a Splatfest Star will be displayed above their head in battles until the Splatfest has ended. The fish-like creature in Splatfest Stars is similar in appearance to the combined Splatfest Floats.

As of the version 2.0.0 update, the names of the winners of 10×, 100×, and 333× battles are shown on the Pledge Box once again. A new feature was also added that allows 100× and 333× battle winners to board a Splatfest Float with their team to take commemorative pictures.

Shiver announcing Team Rock's 10× Battle win

As an expansion of Anarchy Splatcast during Splatfests, Deep Cut is broadcasting straight from the front lines of Splatfests to announce special updates. As of version 3.0.0 update, when the player is in the lobby, announcements of a 10×, 100×, and 333× Battle victory and its victors are displayed on the player's Sea-Cucumber Phone.

During Past vs. Present vs. Future, Deep Cut only announces 10x, 100x, or 333x Battle victories for Team Future. The Squid Sisters announce these victories for Team Past, and Off the Hook announces them for Team Present.

Version 9.0.0 introduced the ability for players to select which pose Shiver, Frye, and/or Big Man assume in the commemorative photograph. They can also choose to pose with the Squid Sisters or Off the Hook instead if Splatoon 3: Expansion Pass has been downloaded.

Splatfest team names

Main article: List of Splatoon 3 Splatfest team names

If every member of a team of four has matching gear, weapons, or appearance, a Splatfest team name is generated. Almost every piece of gear, weapon, or appearance warrants a unique title, which can be mixed with other titles to generate a one-of-a-kind team name.

Many changes have been made to the possible Splatfest team names from the transition from Splatoon 2 to Splatoon 3. This includes changes to returning gear titles, the addition of new gear and gear brands, the addition of new main weapons and weapon classes, the addition of new sub and special weapons, and the addition of new player customization options. Although there have been many changes to the naming system, the amount of unique Splatfest team names is nearly endless.

Splatfest team names are separated into five main categories, each of which has one slot in the final team name, meaning there could only be up to five name parts in a team name. Under these categories are several sub-categories which determine what the displayed name unit would be if there were more matching properties within a main category.

Main category	Sub-categories and priority
Headgear	Headgear name > genre > brand
Shoes	Shoe name > genre > brand
Weapons	Main weapons > weapon class > specials > subs > different weapon classes
Player customization	Hairstyles > species
Group name	(A random ending title assigned if the team has any of the previous categories)

For example, if everyone on the team had matching Subs, Specials, and weapon classes, the game would only choose the weapon class for the team name. If a team only had matching subs and specials, the game would choose the special weapon for the team name.

Synergy Bonuses and Splatfest team names are closely related as both can be determined by the same factors, but not everything that warrants a synergy bonus has an equivalent team name. Some synergy bonuses are earned by having only two or three teammates with matching properties, while Splatfest team names are only obtainable if all teammates have matching properties.

Conch Clash

Starting in Splatoon 3's Sizzle Season 2024, a Conch Clash may occur when both teams in the battle are on the same Splatfest team. Winning a Conch Clash rewards players with 1, 10 or 33 conch shells, similarly to 10×, 100× and 333× Battles.
