The latest Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtle-themed Splatfest has been keeping us fans of Splatoon 2 glued to our Nintendo Switch consoles over the last couple of weeks, but the mutated event is set to draw to a close later this week as Team Donnie and Team Raph meet in the final between the 18th and 19th May.
The event, which is the product of a new partnership with Nintendo and Nickelodeon to promote its new show Rise of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, saw Team Mikey and Team Leo shredded and splintered into oblivion. So who will win this final showdown? Red or purple? Teenage angst or book smarts?
Will you be picking a side come the end of the week? Which team will have your backing in the final TMNT Splatfest? Let us know in the comments below...

D*MNIT MISSED A SPLATFEST
Even tho it means not siding with Pearl for once - Don 💜
I just noticed....where are Raphael's' sais'?
I helped both teams get into the final with a king status on both! Gunna have to stick with donnie just because he has a stick and is purple!
Great, I literally lost both previous Splatfests. 😂
Turtles aren't amphibians. They're reptiles.
@Xaessya The missing sais are the least of this Raph’s problems.
That being said, this show is supposed to take place earlier in their ninja career than usual. I’m sure Raphael will get his sais (and be relieved of his role as leader) later.
Lost the first round of the Splatfest as Team Leo. Very disappointed that I had a streak of losses that Saturday. The second round was a great victory for Team Donnie. I didn't contribute much due to connection problems but still a win is a win. I'll be taking Donnie's side again for the final but I can only play on Saturday to make it to Donnie King. I am busy on Sunday so I'll get the results after coming from the train.
I was Team Raph in round 1 and team Donnie in round 2.
Now I don’t know what to do...
Edgy one for the win!
There was a really funny Raph vs Donnie TMNT short on Nick a while ago. The two seems to be at odds all the time.
But then again who isn't Raph at odds with all the time.
Ugh, look, yes, I know there is no way in hell I could possibly do better. But that art style is ugly! It's like Deviantart fan-art...
To each their own, but that is nothing like the show I watched with my cousins as a kid!
Mikey lost?? Rats, my teams were crushing it too! Oh well.
@Sinton
I didn't ask for this!
Turtles are reptiles, Dom.
Well, I was donnie and raph in the last 2. Those were my favourite as a kid, basically because my dad bought me those figures, and leo and mikey for my brother, back from a work trip to the US when ninja turtles first started to become a thing.
So which to choose now??
This should have been Leo vs Donnie... Oh well, team Donnie, here we go!
@Xaessya they got rid of them for some reason like Mikeys nunchaku
@raygboyd333 @Sinton @Xaessya I think that decision to change the weapons was a throwback to the original black & white Turtle comics where in one issue, TMNT #9, they had younger versions of the turtles on a mission to reconnect an ancestor of a warrior clan with his heritage. Raph had tonfas instead of sais, Leon used a single sword, Mike had the manriki-gusari (grappling hook), and Don, appropriately, had a shorter Bo (possibly a Jo) for training.
Wow, the worst two. Not that they are bad but not near as great as Leo and Mike.
We all know donny cant beat raph..
@masterLEON Exactly.
Going to be on Team Raph. Was on this team in the first week and going to stick with my original choice. Good luck everyone!
@masterLEON I seem to remember Raph maining the tonfa before in some cartoon. Or maybe in one of the live action films?
@SMW Now that you mention it, I kind of remember that, too. It likely wasn't the 2nd movie, because I don't think any of the turtles used weapons, like at all. And, truth be told, I never saw the 3rd movie. Maybe it was an arc in one of the cartoons?
