Team Sweet creams opposition in Splatoon 3 splatfest

Sweet… sweeeet… sweet victory…

The final whistle has blown on this weekend’s Splatoon 3 splatfest, and, as a posse of tired and sticky squid kids and octolings return to the locker room, the points have been tallied up and now have an official winner in the battle of Spicy vs. Sweet vs. Sour: Scoop yerself a victory ice-cream Team Sweet!

Yes, it appears that fans of the sweetest of treats took home the gong this weekend, walking away with a massive 30 points in total, double that of its closest competitors, Team Spicy (15 points), and way ahead of third-place winner Team Sour (12 points).

Perhaps most importantly of all, this latest result has given Splatoon 3 host Frye her first splatfest win ever! The fans had been starting to feel a little sorry for her in recent weeks, as she had been yet to rack up a splatfest victory when compared to her colorful co-hosts, so it’s nice to see this particular Deep Cut band member finally have their moment of glory.

Congratulations to the hard-paintin’ players of Team Sweet. Make sure that you remember to go and pick up your rewards from the town square, oh, and make sure that you remember to brush your teeth three times a day. All of the sugar comes with one helluva price.

Splatoon 3 is available now on Nintendo Switch.
