Team Vanilla Wins Splatoon 3's Ice Cream-Themed Splatfest

Leaning towards Team Vanilla but strawberry ice cream tends to be good too. No interest in the toothpaste team.

Can't believe they didn't show anything for Side Order tbh.

Team Strawberry but where is Side Order

This is bs. Nintendo knew if they put chocolate in this, it would be a sweep.

This really didn't feel like news fit for a Direct.

Very surprise no Splatoon DLC news

Eh vanilla for me.

I'll take a Side Order of Team Chocolate please!

...oh

Why does no one understand the glory that is Mint Chip Ice Cream? I'll be sure to defend my team this July.

I guess they didn't want a Chocolate Team shooting brown ink all over the map.

You know a Direct is bad when they announce a Splatfest in it.

Loads of people raving but to me it was just meh.

I thought I just dazed thru the dlc, glad to see my brain isn't that broken yet reading all the comments.

Another food themed Splatfest? And the way they announced it built unnecessary hype for the possible Side Order DLC. I'll still enjoy the Splatfest, don't get me wrong, but I really wish they didn't use that for Direct filling.

I'll go with vanilla or strawberry. I may pick strawberry just for the cool neon pink ink.

I just wanted Side Order news :/
Going for vanilla by the way

I'd vote for mint chip but the vanilla ink color is way funnier.

I'll ultimately probably vote for strawberry though because that pink ink fills me with happiness

Vanilla for me.

Just a fun bit of info about why it's Mint chip instead of just ... chocolate.

Mint oil is produced in northern Japan and mint sweets are deeply imbedded in food culture in the northern prefectures. As you move south this changes and people consume less and less mint. As such, "do you like Mint Ice-cream" is a REALLY decisive question in Japan. Not only is it basically a 50/50 split between "it's literally the best" and "inedible garbage that tastes like toothpaste", but the answer is deeply rooted in heritage and local pride. Think "do you like Arsenal or Man U."

If Chocolate were one of the three choices, EVERYBODY would choose that flavor, because Chocolate outranks all other flavors!

Vanilla for the free camouflage

Anything with Mint Chip sucks...

No team chocolate because chocolate got it's own Splatfest.
Go vanilla!

Go team strawberry!! I love both strawberry and mint but I picked the former since I like it a bit more

Team Strawberry all the way~!!!!
Who wants to bet during the one-year anniversary that we'll get side order news?

Busy this weekend, but hope to fit in an hour or so each day for Mint Chip!!

I'll be traveling, but go Vanilla.

I’m gonna have to go mint, it’s always a favorite of mine and nothing goes better but a cold minty feel in your mouth with an already cold food, and just pop some water in your mouth and Mm, feel the cold flow.

Team vanilla all the way. I love vanilla ice cream.

Am I staying up until 2am to see in this Splatfest? You're goddamn right I am.

Team Mint Chip!

Ugh, it always ends up happening on weekends where I have to work! And considering I work 10-hour shifts, that means that I only have about half of the weekend to get to the Ruler rank. What I'd give for just ONE Splatfest on a weekend where I don't have to work!

Let's go, Team Mint Chip!

Mint Choc Chip is my number 1 favourite ice cream flavour of all. .... .... but I didn't even play Splatoon during this fest lol. So I have no stake in this game.

...Splatoon 3 kind of lost its lustre for me after an initial few weeks of fun. ... :/ I think I don't like the idea that it's completely replacing Splatoon 2. It's way too similar.

Shiver again.

Yawn.

@SoapMonki this tricolor map was a disaster compared to the last one. Defending team’s spawn was right at the first choke, so it was rare that attackers got through. Not that it ended up mattering that much, since my ten attempts to play tricolor all resulted in vanilla mirror matches.

I had a lot of fun with the tricolour battles. I'd say it was about 50/50 when it came to mirror matches vs. three different teams. The battles were pretty intense when attacking and defending, which made a nice change from the turf battles. Still way too many disconnections going on though.

I was on a bit of a losing streak with the Splatfests so I'm glad this has broken it! #Vanilla!

I don't think I've ever seen such a drastic amount of votes for one team over the other. Poor Strawberry with only like 15% of the votes.

I didn't play as much of this Splatfest but I'm glad I could rep #Vanilla

Not surprised. I was in Team Mint Chocolate Chip. Even though Team Strawberry was the smallest group, they played very well! Congratulations, Team Vanilla!

Did anyone else have a lot of connectivity issues this splatfest?

Also, I won my first 100x battle this splatfest!

Let's go! I finally won a Splatfest.

I don't understand how the voting system for Splatoon works anymore

Heck yeah! Team vanilla we just showed that boring IS practical after all!

Glad Vanilla won. I had a pretty good feeling about this one since I won the majority of my matches.

Gg to everyone! I was team Strawberry and although I’m still shocked how we got 0p in total it doesn’t really matter to me since everyone gets the snails in the end. I haven’t been playing much anyways bc of TotK
@KidSparta Agreed, tricolor was not good at all. I’m not a fan of the map since it’s just another Tetris block

Congrats Team Vanilla Ice! And thanks for fighting with me Team Strawberry Ice, it was fun!

My favourite classic ice is called Plombir, so yummy.

@KidSparta Once I get my 10 Defending Wins Badge, I am never touching Tri-Color Turf War ever again. Not only that...but once Splatoon 3's new content has stopped I will cease playing the game and move to other games.
