@Tendo64 Yeah, king rank yields max number is super sea snails, which is the main benefit of playing splafest. (Super sea snails are awarded 3-6 hours after splatfest ends and winning team is declared.)
The only advantage after that is getting extra ability chunks. After you've filled all three ability slots, you still keep earning extra ability chunks every 7000 points, which are given to you without having to scrub the shirt.
Before the end of splatfest, be sure to scrub that shirt for those 3 chunks, otherwise you lose them when splatfest ends. Scrubbing splatfest tshirt costs $2,000, which is cheap compared to $20,000 it normally costs to scrub gear for the ability chunks.

I have no idea what a lot of that means but I'm sure I can work it out 🤣
PS thank you!!
@Tendo64 haha got ya I was describing customizing the abilities of your splatoon gear (shoes, clothing, head wear). Customizing gear gives you advantages in online matches like turf war. Advantages like swim speed, more ink capacity for your weapon, damage reduction, reducing respawn time.

Ohhhh. I only picked up the game two weeks ago so I didn't know 😂 What are super sea snails? How would I go about scrubbing the shirt?
@Tendo64 In the store or in your inventory, each piece of gear you'll see one big circle, the main ability, with an ability icon and then 1-3 smaller circles(aka slots) for sub abilities. Sub ability= 0.3 of main ability.
Scrubbing shirt: In inkopolis square, there's a guy on the bench with a few conch shells next to him, that's "Murch". Talk to him and he can help you modify your gear abilities. .
Super sea snails let you add ability slots to your gear (up to 3), or reroll for difference abilities like a casino slot machine.
There's more to gear abilitys and customizing abilities, but I don't know how to describe it in a quick manner. Anyone else is welcome to help out, or past a link to a guide.
Looking for a little advice about Splatoon, im thinking about picking it up but im wondering what its like in terms of content as its coming into it's 3rd year.
Is it still being supported with new content as im dubious paying £80 + whatever the dlc costs (we need 2 copies to play together) for such an old game - especially given its shortcomings (No voice chat for a team based shooter, a limited horde mode and most lobbies will likely be populated with the sweats who have stuck it out for 3 years resulting in a steep difficulty curve)
Its got a player base of like 10 millions if im not mistaken so theres a lot of people online all the time and you'll be matched with people of your skill level so no problem on that side. The only thing is i'd recommend using a LAN adapter for the internet connection
@Ninchiku thanks for the reply.
We've both got Lites so Lan is out of the question unfortunately.
The Mrs isn't very good at shooters so I thought of Splatoon as it looks more casual, I should be able to carry her - especially as it would be easier to talk team tactics sat next to each other, rather than having to rely on ingame chat (which is usually non existent on Switch lol).
How many game modes are there?
Well you have 3 main game modes and then you have sub modes in one of them which all play quite diferently
You first have the Turf War which is the first game mode introduced in the original splatoon, in which you basically have to paint the most turf possible
The second game mode is ranked battles which have sub modes : splat zones in which you have to keep control of one specific zone on the map for a certain amount of time, tower control in which you have to keep control of a moving "tower" to bring it from point A to point B (probably the most fun to me), the rainmaker in which you have an item that double as a special weapon on the centre of the map that you have to bring into the adverse camp (the person carrying it can use it as a charger weapon but its slow so your team have to defend your surrounding to bring you there), and the clam blitz mode in which you have to collect more clams than the other team but if you get splatted you loose some of your clams which the other team can then collect (to be honest i havnt played this one that much so im not too sure)
Third main mode is Salmon Run, in which you go in the wild with a team and play against the AI to go and collect eggs, its fun too, very different from the other modes, it really brings something different and makes you work as a team
Then of course you have the Octo Valley which is the campaign mode, i havnt played it yet which is a shame because everybody says its great i actually plan to start playing it in the coming days, in this mode you have levels which includes diferent types of enemies, platforming and at least one boss (maybe more than one im not sure). I played the campaign mode in the original Splatoon, and it was very fun
