Splatoon's Next Splatfest Will Make Tricolour Turf War Its Own Mode

Tricolor Turf Wars was one of the big selling points for Splatoon 3. A three-way version of the regular team-based Turf Wars, adding the third team made each match an even more frenetic fight to see who could cover everything with the most ink. However, fans were disappointed to learn that Tricolor matches weren’t a guarantee, and many found themselves playing standard two-team Turf Wars rather than the new Tricolor mode.

Nintendo might have just been a little gun-shy about splitting the matchmaking pools too thinly, but it seems like the Splatoon publisher has figured things out as the next Splatfest will allow players to select Tricolor Turf Wars as a unique Game mode. The announcement came courtesy of the Splatoon Twitter which confirmed Tricolor Turf Wars will be selectable midway through the next Splatfest.

"It seems that in the next Splatfest, anyone can opt to join a Tricolor Battle after the Halftime Report," wrote the Splatoon Twitter. "And whether they join solo or with a friend on the same team, they'll always match into a Tricolor Battle!"

This new selectable option means players won't have to worry about getting into the two-team Turf Wars anymore, but they also won't know whether they're attacking or defending until the battle begins. It's recommended that you familiarize "yourself with the rules at the Splatfest Pledge Box or via the lobby menu before hopping in."

There's also going to be a new metric for determining the winner of Splatfest called Tricolor Clout. We don't know exactly how this Tricolor Clout is determined (yet), but we do know that the leading team at the halftime report will get more Tricolor Clout while defending, and everyone else will get more Tricolor Clout while attacking.

Players will have to choose between team Spicy, Sweet, or Sour when the next Splatfest arrives on January 6.

Court throws out conviction after judge says Black man 'looks like a criminal to me'

An appeals court says a Detroit federal judge violated the rights of a Black man when he said in court, ‘This guy looks like a criminal to me DETROIT -- An appeals court on Thursday overturned the drug conviction of a Black man, saying his rights were violated by a Detroit federal judge who was upset over delays in the case and declared: “This guy looks like a criminal to me.” “Such remarks are wholly incompatible with the fair administration of justice,” the 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said. U.S. District Judge Stephen Murphy III, who is white, apologized nearly two years later when the case against Leron Liggins finally was ready for trial. He explained that he was mad at the time “and I regret it.” Nonetheless, the appeals court said Murphy should have removed himself as Liggins' attorney had requested. The court threw out a heroin distribution conviction and 10-year prison sentence and ordered a new trial with a different judge . Allowing the conviction to stand “wou

Skyrim Player Finds Sigurd Mysteriously Dead, Prompts Whudunnit Theories

It's a lovely morning in Whiterun. You wake up invigorated by the spirit of a dragon you killed yesterday, and are ready to test out your new Shout. You stop by the blacksmith to craft 30 Iron Daggers to level up your blacksmithing, and then make your way to meet Jarl Balgruuf. Heimskr incessant praises to Talos don't seem to bother you, and no one talks about taking an arrow to the knee. It's a perfect day. That's when you see it – Sigurd's body laying on top of his wooden logs. A murder has been committed, and it was someone within Whiterun. This is more or less the same scenario that Redditor JDGumby went through during one of their recent walks around Whiterun (thanks, Game Rant). Sigurd was lying dead on his logs, but the player wasn't the one who killed him. The city doesn't have any hostile NPCs, so it's quite the mystery. Here's usually where the cello music would swell and Benoit Blac would enter, but instead, JDGumby decided to ask th
