All Medals in Splatoon 3

The post-match medal system is a small but enjoyable mechanic in Splatoon 3. Sometimes confused with another in-game system that handles achievements like Splatoon 3's Judd Badge, medals are displayed at the end of matches to display contributions by particular players. What the badges designate varies based on weapons, abilities, etc., so here is every medal in Splatoon 3.

Every Splatoon 3 Medal

• Base Defender - Starting simply, get this medal by splatting your home base's most enemies in a match.
• Big Bubbler User - The first ability-based medal, simply use the Big Bubbler the most out of all players in a match.
• Booyah Bomb User - This medal is the same as the previous one for the Booyah Bomb ability.
• Checkpoint Breaker - Checkpoint Breaker can be achieved by controlling the Rainmaker through the most checkpoints in a match of Rainmaker OR by controlling the tower through the most checkpoints in Tower Control.
• Clam Carrier - Grabbing the most clams in a game of Clam Blitz will net you this medal.
• Clam Stopper - This medal is given to those who splatted enemies and made them drop the most clams.
• Crab Tank User - Another ability medal gained by using the Crab Tank the most in a match.
• Damage Taker - Either positive or negative, this medal is given to the player who received the most damage in a match.
• Enemy-Base Splatter - Given to a great offensive player, this medal denotes the player who covered the enemy base in the most ink.
• Enemy Splatter - Comparable to "most kills" but in a more family-friendly way, this medal is awarded to the player with the most enemy splats.
• First Splat! - First blood, but for splats!
• Ground Traveler - For the most mobile Inkling, this medal is given to the player who covered the most ground in a match.
