This Splatfest really feels like a celebration of Splatoon up until this point. Huge props to Nintendo.

[@InmateOmighty]

Medium sized props

[@faithfighter3691]

No just the plaza, and even that i dont think looks that amazing. Theres no cool change or anything to the actual splatfest. No cool stage gimmicks or gameplay variation to make it feel a little special. Just the same old turf war and horrid tricolor.

[@chunkymonkey7983]

​@@faithfighter3691ok fun police

[@Kai_Ri_]

Yeah up until this point cuz Grand Splatlands Bowl is so ass 😭

[@m4rcyonstation93]

It's pretty good but as someone who didnt care for splatfests before I don't really feel a reason to play it. Im just watching everyone in the plaza LOL

[@alexolotlmaster1024]

Whichever team gets both signals has there idols come in and fire fizzbangs, as well as providing a new remix in place of now or never

[@OlmiOP]

Second signal only. First signal does not matter who gets it

I was wondering what effected that

[@cousinparty7266]

7:50 I will be that someone The last minute music depends which team gets the second signal. If no one gets the second signal then the generic background music will play. But if a team does, everyone will get a special last minute theme sung by the team who got the second signal Squid sisters will sing a remix of city of color OTH will sing a remix of ebb and flow Deep cut will sing an original song

[@j.corbygaming]

Thats so sick

[@cousinparty7266]

Just edited my comment after playing tricolor a bit more, still hype af

[@crazyshark1016]

Cool detail: City of Color was the first Splatfest song, thus representing the Past. It's specifically Spectrum Obligato ~ Ebb & Flow. Debuting in Splatoon 3, it represents the Present. Deep Cut's song is one we haven't heard before, representing the Future.

[@THE_FACEツ]

​@@crazyshark1016 Nintendo has such good attention to detail

[@giganticmoon]

[@mariofanl1ve]

This map legit feels like a shifty station that isn't called "shifty station" and I'm all for it. Might not be as crazy as others but feels kinda like M.C. Princess Diaries to me

[@unl3ash3d95]

ThI’m s stage don’t hold a candle to MC princess diaries bringing back an old special for a splatfest and the hyper bombs were cool interactive features of the stage this new stage don’t got that really

[@squiddu]

​@@unl3ash3d95 pearl can only scream so much :(

[@Clam_Chow]

i actually like this more than MC princess diaries, and yes, i have played both. The amount of detail present here (crowds, panel screens, idol performance, dynamic music, etc) makes the stage feel more full and alive than MC princess diaries. MC makes for it with awesome gimmicks like the hyperbombs and princess cannon, which are awesome! But once the novelty wears off the stage terrain is somewhat bland and flat, whereas the terrain of Grand Splatlands Bowl has more verticality and strategic elements (climbable support beams, inkrail to mid, dynamic platform, etc). It also happens to be the 4th vertically symmetrical stage in splatoon which is kinda cool! Overall i can enjoy playing this stage for a lot longer than MC princess diaries because i find it more interesting to strategize in. that’s just my opinion tho!

[@13_cmi]

This one was an amazing map for salmon run but there’s just no good entrance points for the attacking teams. And the defending team can get locked into their corner if the attackers do really good.

[@pokemaro]

It’s been two years now and people still don’t know not to attack the other team of two in tricolor

Actually yes the music changes in the last minute depending on which team grabs the second ultra signal! In your match team present grabbed the second signal so off the hook started singing in the last minute. The same happens with past and future :)

[@MAR_abisal]

With their respective idol group*

[@rawoo9385]

Worth noting too that there's no second Sprinkler of Doom, the second signal makes the idols that take the stage shoot giant fizzbangs while they cheer for you.

@@rawoo9385 I kept looking for the second Sprinkler when I got a second signal. I didn't realize it just didn't spawn at all.

[@tomatoblate2170]

I’ve never really been into any of the Splatfests in Splat 3. Some of them were fun for a bit, but I didn’t really care about them at all. But this Splatfest is actually so tremendously cool. Especially the new hub with all of the idol groups preforming. They did a phenomenal job making it feel like an actual performance, and not just some characters on a screen

[@5omewhat0fal0ser]

Same! I've spent more time playing matches and vibing in the crowd of jellies this fest than I usually do! I do hope they pull a Splat 2 and replay the splatfests for those who couldn't experience them for the first time...

[@TheFrantastic]

​@@5omewhat0fal0serIt's been confirmed it will be possible with an idol amiibo (any Callie, Marie, Pearl, Marina, Shiver, Frye, Big Man) to revisit the grandfest hub at any phase, including the final 2 hours that might be hard to be in for certain timezones (mine is from midnight to 2 am)

[@willwunsche6940]

The devs seriously cooked for this Splatfest. I was blown away how good everything is

[@technobeagle9598]

It’s actually so so so cool how the idols are in the back of the stage once both signals are captured, I NEED more people to notice that. Not just like the pngs like THEY SHOW UP BACK THERE

[@Psycho0Noob]

Prochara didn't recognize calamari inkantation 💔

[@twindragons4590]

It’s hard to notice, but whoever gets the last signal gets their teams idols up dancing where the cannons are along with free bombs. It’s sooo cute!

[@Trace2636]

I love that the idols don't start singing Three Wishes until the player gets to the stage, as if they were waiting just for you, so sweet :)

I'm surprised the switch isn't an oven at this point. Like how is it better then salmon run framerate????

[@NinEris]

I’ve pulled mine out of the dock when I was idle in the lobby. I can confirm that it is officially an oven.

[@Psycho0Noob]

Salmon run framerate issue is prob bc of the cpu Tbf there's many salmanoids with their own adaptive AI, and all the eggs that have interactive flags Also the jelloes become low poly when far salmanoids don't Also there's def moving texture magic going for the jellies that are really far in the moutains Overall super impressive but samon run is basically a diff thing with its own problems

[@13_cmi]

@@Psycho0Noobsalmons get low frame rate in the distance. But it’s really the distance. It might help if they went low frame rate earlier.

0:35 If you check photo mode you can see that they hust aggressively compress anything that isn't directly in front of you until you take a picture lol

[@arttukettunen5757]

Spawn areas are extremely large. Getting signals is harder than most maps but 2 signals cover 50% of the area that isn't spawn. There are some routes, but the areas are quite flat and simple. Imo it's not the best tricolor map, but it isn't the worst. It's fitting for the grand festival, but it could have been better, like a little more complexity with routes, and especially the drop from attacker spawn (literally 1 straight edge). The venue and the music are very cool (and the fact we got to play tricolor every day differently I applaud), but since they have made a tricolor stage for almost every splatfest, I don't feel like we got the coolest stage.

[@sonicrunn3r895]

[@Xeroskia]

When you lose against another team, the music is actually a remix of that team's game's victory theme (Past - Splat 1; Present - Splat 2; Future - Splat 3), which was pretty hilarious. In a mirror, it's just your own game's losing theme.

[@xraenon1664]

To me, this Tricolor map feels pretty attacker-favored (at least in the less-than-amazingly-skilled environment of fest turf war.) Though it would be interesting to see a mode with more of the sort of king-of-the-hill focus this stage the Bowl has. (Every game of Tricolor I played ended either in the defending team staking out on the raised platform and holding it all game, or losing that position and never taking it back.)

[@weirdpuppet326]

Bro you did not just say it's attacker focused

[@xraenon1664]

@@weirdpuppet326 I said in my games it feels that way. I did not run into many intelligent players (and I saw maybe 5 players using anything with more range than a Splattershot Pro over the course of 4 hours) so it might just be that defense is really hard to carry on if the matchmaking gods curse you with hold-forward Sploosh players for teammates

@@weirdpuppet326 I’m on team past, and I think I won like 2 out the dozen or so games I had on defense, in in both of those games I had two or three teammates match my 10+ K/A record. It kinda sucks, cause it feels like team Past is gonna just get stomped in Tricolor and lose the category for sure. Also, unrelated, but is it just me or are the team placements on the map pre-determined? _Every_ game I played on office put Team Past on the left side.

[@freuner-merris]

I didn't play that many matches on the stage (maybe seven or so), but I for one felt it to be quite defender favoured. If at least one or two defenders camp the raised platform, it's pretty difficult for attackers to successfully grab the signal. Only say attackers win once, and that was when one of the attacking teams was running double Vanilla Tri Slosher and most of the rest of the lobby didn't know how to fight the thing.

[@Kanaventi]

Sad he only got mirrors!! The music is so much more different in non mirrors depending on who gets the signals (im on team present and have been in plenty of non mirrors)

The new battle music is so panic inducing. Way too much chaos with the three themes togethers, feels like a boss battle

[@Viewer4245]

[@Corvidiot_YT]

I love this fest but the stage is kinda bad… it’s way too defender heavy, favoring weapons with falloff damage way too heavily due to the high ground, (don’t even get me started on dynamo camping) and puts attackers in a position where they have no way to get in unless they get lucky enough to actually grab the signal, at which point it snowballs. Tbh I cant blame them too much, because the issue as a whole just stems from tricolor itself, and really the mode just needs a rework.

[@Corvidiot_YT]

I would like to add a disclaimer that a lot of people may have had different experiences, but as of about 12-13 hours after the map dropped people figured out how to camp with falloff damage perfectly, and with the little amount of ground in attackers spawn, weapons with high points for special can’t actually do anything.

[@Shuck34]

The middle platform goes up whenever somebody is on it, like the tower in tower control and the lifts in brinewater
