Current Event

Splatfest

Who would be the best friend? (Zombie vs. Skeleton vs. Ghost)

27th/28th October - 29th/30th October - JP 9:00 Aus 10:00 GMT (UTC) 0:00 PT 17:00

UKGaffers: 1 a.m. as the clocks won't have gone back yet.

Don't forget to get your conch shells!

You can earn conch shells in the week leading up to the Splatfest. You earn conch shells by levelling up your catalogue. You can do this by playing any mode (battles or Salmon Run). The winning team is the team that gets most conch shells, and gets 10p for the Splatfest.

You need to choose a team first.

Spoiler: Splatfest Basics

Splatfest Basics

• There was a 'Sneak Peek' that was based on the number of collected Conch Shells. Team Fun won. It is not clear if this will be done for future Splatfests.
• Splatfests are Turf War only.
• There are 'Open' and 'Pro' battles
  • 'Open' allows for teams and you can stay on the same team.
  • 'Pro' is solo only and teams are mixed after each match.
• The points you earn for your team are called 'Cloat'
  • You gain Cloat even if you lose in Open Battle
  • You only gain Clout if you win in Pro Battle
• The winning team of 'Open' gets 15 points.
• The winning team of 'Pro' gets 10 points.
• At half-time, the currently winning team may get put into Tricolor Turf War matches (4v2v2).
• There are x10, x100, and x333 matches.
  • You can increase your chances of getting into these matches by winning them.
    • Winning these matches gives you a Festival Shell - the more you have; the greater your chance of getting a bonus match.
