How to Increase Rank in Splatoon 3

There are a few things that you can do to raise your rank in Splatoon 3.

If you have a Splatoon 2 save file on your device, Splatoon 3 will recognize you as a more experienced player and will give you a headstart. If you want to start over, backup the save file and delete it from your device.

It is a great method of training to learn the maps of Splatoon 3, which can be done through the Recon game mode, which will allow you to roam the maps freely. Knowing the maps and key points on them can bring you an edge in a multiplayer match with real people.
It is also very important to have a good aim and to know which weapons work better for different situations, which also gives you an advantage over other players.
Most importantly, you need to be a team player. It doesn’t do the team any good if you’re a loose cannon that does not assist their teammates, no matter how good you are. If you help the team and work with them, there are more chances that you will win, which will provide you with your intention to raise your rank. It’s the most optimal course of action to play with your friends since you will develop a better synergy since you know each other better than random people from the matchmaking queue.

Remember, practice makes perfect. We thank you for sticking until the end of the article, and we invite you to check our other Splatoon 3 articles under the game tag below.
