It's that time again! A new splatfest is coming, and Nintendo's really going all out this time! It's Trick vs Treat in a worldwide splatfest! For the first time ever, we have a 48 hour splatfest!

Start time: Friday 10/19 3pm PT, 5pm CT, 6pm ET

End time: Sunday 10/21 3pm PT, 5pm CT, 6pm ET



On top of all that, they're handing out Halloween themed gear! You can pick these up starting Friday, 10/5 from an article posted on the Squid Research Lab Report (Splatoon 2) News Channel on your Nintendo Switch! They have good abilities too (Run speed and all three ink efficiency abilities), so you'll look fresh and play fresh!

Which side are you rooting for? Share your thoughts and let's get into the spirit of the holiday! Halloween punsssss

For just this one Splatfest, I'll change headgear to one of these new ones, most likely the horn for the creepy factor.

Why on earth would someone be on Team Trick?

To many bad treats growing up like an apple, 3 musketeers, or tooth brushes.

Go team Trick.

Ahh, the classic Trick or Treat dilemma. I know what Treat I want ( ͡ᵔ ͜ʖ ͡ᵔ ) ahem, the ink pairing should look nice! ^^;

This'll be a fun tweet bittersweet Splatfest. First Splatfest after the paywall curtain and the first real "test" of the new scoring system.

I do like the jiangshi hat. I wish there was more gear to complete the looks though. (You can already improvise with the Jason mask.)
Closest thing I can think of is the Toni Kensa kung fu looking shirt. But I can't recall if we have any fitting black or white sneakers to help the ensemble. Yet the proper way to top it all off is by playing a blaster. Quick respawn stacking optional. =p

Tricking silly cephalopods will always be sweeter than those miniature chocolate bars from bulk packs that are always given out on my street. -_-

Sadly, I've yet to find my match who also enjoys the fishface lulz. u_u

going team trick just because i think it will be less popular hence less mirror games

Remember, both of last month's Splatfests were 3-0 sweeps....
At this point for me, I’m much less concerned with being on the winning team than I am picking the team with the least amount of waiting between matches. That still seems to be the less-popular team.

For crying out loud...the devs just don't seem to understand that you don't make a stage that 100% revolves around a tiny middle section, do they? Two months in a row they're pulling this crap.

Ok so obviously the 2-tone paint is a new effect, but it looks like the graphics in general or maybe just the frame rate have been improved. Does anyone else notice this?

This shifty station is completely unfair. Basically whoever covers the middle section first is more than likely guaranteed to win. Look how fun this has to be for the other team.
