The two songs i like to listen to when playing Splatoon are "This is War" by Thirty Seconds to Mars, and "Free Bird" by Lynyrd Skynyrd (the 4 minute guitar solo just makes turf war that much more badass :P ).
Whatever my phone has, which usually ranges from Super Smash Bros to Mario Kart and Super Mario Bros. Shout out to Ducktales with the Moon, Amazon and the Final Boss theme.
It really feels like a song that would definitely slot into the soundtrack. The muffled vocals (sorry Japan, but please) pumped intro and fast paced guitars make for a really refreshing battle theme. Other than that, various RPG battle themes. I just like to over-exaggerate Ranked or whatsoever so I have much more motivation and focus to accomplish whatever I'm trying to do! (examples include FFX Battle Theme Orchestrated, some Pokemon Champion themes and suitably, the Elite Four themes!)
If I need to get pumped real quick, I throw on "Pain" by Jimmy Eat World. I don't know why, but whenever that song comes on I just destroy. After that I just stick with the theme.
When I play Splatoon ( or other video games ) i love to hear the podcast " A State of Trance "
It carried me through long hours of raids on World of Warcraft and now on Splatoon :p
Sometimes I put on Teddy Bear or Cake by Melanie Martinez! (Those too get me pumped) or Girls like Girls! (Not very pumpy but still it helps to sooth...)
