🎙 Leading up to Riptide, we seen there is a massive desire to commentate in the Splatoon community. We want to help connect that desire to organizations that need more comms outside of just our LANs. If your org needs more on air talent, please reply below!

THE WAIT IS OVER After several days of hot-tub induced deliriousness, I finally came back to my senses and finished the Riptide 2025 photo album! Find the link to the full gallery below :)) RTs/Tags greatly appreciated <33

Here's my photo album from Riptide 2025! This is the largest album I've ever had and it was a pleasure to be able to photograph Riptide and learn so much from doing it. I'm gonna take notes, improve and step up my game for next time. Hope y'all enjoy the album! drive.google.com/drive/folder...

The 5th year of inktastic action in Sandusky Ohio comes to an end. Congrats to Voiē Lactee on their Riptide 2025 victory! We hope you enjoyed the event as much as we did!

Congratulations to our Riptide 2025 Splatoon Champions... Voiē Lactee!!!! 🥳🏆
