* '''Undertow Spillway''' for the '''June 10th - June 12th Big Run''' was mostly a return to the more laid-back shifts of Wahoo World thanks to the multiple safe perching spots where players could climb to get away from the Salmonids... but Low Tide was another story. The basket was in the middle of the map, on the narrow raised ledge with sloped sides, creating a mass GuideDangIt moment for players -- you can hand-deposit eggs from the low ground even though it looks too far, and many were led to inefficiently throwing eggs into the basket, inking the wall to climb up, or jumping and having that split second of immobility in the air. The area around the basket was also very narrow, making you easy targets for Scrappers and Steel Eels. This is compounded by the spawn points for Salmonids; not only do they surround the basket on all sides, but the two opposite sides of the map are far apart, so shoreline units like Big Shots and Stingers became that much more difficult to deal with if they spawned in unfavorable ways.

Especially when queueing with randoms who don't fully understand how to use the weapons, it's way too easy to get swarmed by unmanaged lessers since the weapons largely can't keep up with their numbers.

Sloshing Machine is back with it's tricks for it's swirling shots, while the Heavy Splatling has to be the range for the team and basket control. Octobrush should be on lesser clearing duty to help the most & Splattershot must help whereever needed.

The rotation looks fantastic at first, but second glance becomes an extremely technical rotation on Spawning Grounds. The Dapple Dualies must roll for DPS, not stay on shore long and keep the basket safe. Carbon Roller must use it's flings for Lesser duty and bosses that need mobility. Splattershot Pro has longer range to help with Fish Sticks and Drizzler's torpedos, but poor paint and ink effeciency, while the Hydra Splatling have the basket area kept safe.

The Splattershot Jr, Undercover Brella, and Squiffer have lower ranges, and the Sloshing Machine needs knowledge of tricks for using it well.

* On the opposite end of the overspecialized range issue, July 28 - 30, 2023 brings the '''Flingza Roller, Bloblobber, Jet Squelcher, and E-Liter''' on Marooner's Bay. Each of these weapons is long-ranged for its weapon class, with no fast options on this composition that can run around the ship to pick up eggs or deal damage especially rapidly. Furthermore, the Bloblobber and E-Liter are technical with unclear purpose compared to multiplayer -- Bloblobber is the main DPS weapon compared to multiplayer where it paints and spams chokepoints, while E-Liter is used to clear lines of lessers in addition to splatting certain bosses. Especially when queueing with randoms who don't fully understand how to use the weapons, it's way too easy to get swarmed by unmanaged lessers since the weapons largely can't keep up with their numbers.

The Heavy Splatling itself requires a significant charge time, and leaves its user a sitting duck just before and after firing -- meanwhile, the Carbon Roller is maneuverable but can only crush Smallfry, the Dynamo is reliant on backup from other, higher-DPS weapons (that it won't find here) to not be [[LowTierLetdown complete dead weight]], and the Dapples are effectively melee weapons. Lest you think Xtrawaves will be a reprieve, the featured King Salmonid is the Horrorboros, which flies well beyond the reach of three out of four weapons and has a very small weak point.

* High Tide waves in Salmon Runs can range from fairly difficult to brutal. The sea level rises, turning much of the map into a BottomlessPit and severely limiting your team's range of movement. Marooner's Bay and Lost Outpost remain rather large, while Spawning Grounds and Salmonid Smokeyard shrink drastically in this format. If the RandomNumberGod isn't on your side, you can end up with several of these in sequence, and if you get a Griller or Glowflies wave, you'll [[ThisIsGonnaSuck be in for one hell of a time]].

* Compared to Wahoo World's relatively mellow take on the event, '''the March 4 - March 6, 2023 Big Run on Inkblot Art Academy''' was notorious for how unforgiving it could be. On normal tide, Salmonids could spawn from pools of water only a couple of meters from the egg basket, usually turning the center of the stage into a sea of killer fish in seconds. This would be bad enough, but it also meant that if a [[DemonicSpiders Stinger or Flyfish]] decided to spawn from the Gusher on the opposite side of the map after the first 30 seconds or so, it was almost guaranteed to stay there for the rest of the wave, blasting workers with impunity. Certain Boss Salmonids like Fish Sticks or Slammin' Lids went up a few notches threat-wise due to just how little dry land there was. Low tide wasn't much better despite having the entire stage to work with, as the Egg Basket's central placement meant Lesser Salmonids would still swarm it in very little time. The random nature of Big Run shifts means that you'd often get a loadout that wasn't equipped to deal with the Lesser Salmonid hordes and get swamped, resulting in a crew wipe. High tide, Rushes, and Grillers, though, were surprisingly easy, since the former had quite a bit of verticality that players could use to their advantage, and the latter two featured multiple locations that the Chums, Griller, and Smallfry were completely unable to reach without jumping.
* '''Undertow Spillway''' for the '''June 10th - June 12th Big Run''' was mostly a return to the more laid-back shifts of Wahoo World thanks to the mutliple safe perching spots where players could climb to get away from the Salmonids... but Low Tide was another story. The basket was in the middle of the map, on the narrow raised platform with sloped sides, creating a mass GuideDangIt moment for players -- you can hand-deposit eggs from the low ground even though it looks too far, and many were led to inefficiently throwing eggs into the basket, inking the wall to climb up, or jumping and having that split second of immobility in the air. The area around the basket was also very narrow, making you easy targets for Scrappers and Steel Eels. This is compounded by the spawn points for Salmonids; not only do they surround the basket on all sides, but the two opposite sides of the map are far apart, so shoreline units like Big Shots and Stingers became that much more difficult to deal with if they spawned in unfavorable ways. Thankfully, though, this Big Run didn't feature the Griller, and there were multiple solid places where players could gather to avoid the Chum during a Rush wave.

* Marooner's Bay has a number of traits that make it one of the harder maps in Salmon Run. At normal tide, the basket is located at the top of a ship whose exterior has no inkable walls at all, aside from temporary propeller-activated pillars. Traveling from one side of the map to the other is also tedious because the only paths at ground level that connect to the opposite sides of the map are at the shore and a narrow passage that can easily lead to someone getting trapped. At high tide, the map becomes a long, thin strip that can easily be swarmed by Salmonids with no way to flank them. This makes it really difficult to reach Flyfish and Stingers on the other side due to all the Salmonids in the way, and Steel Eels become a huge menace due to their length, ability to block attacks, and their weak spots becoming much harder to hit.
** While the Egg Throw in ''Splatoon 3'' makes it easier to transport Golden Eggs from the shore to the basket, there are several changes that make the map harder on high tide. The Sting Ray, which the player could aim to pierce Salmonids and reach Flyfish and Stingers on the other side, was replaced with the Killer Wail 5.1. While the Killer Wail 5.1 can also pierce enemies, it only targets up to three Boss Salmonids and moves aimlessly once they're gone, making it less reliable for clearing out Salmonids and prioritizing major targets. Slammin' Lids also make things worse at high tide since they can spawn enemies, block your shots, and position themselves over the grates, making it harder to bait them into falling down without getting yourself crushed in the process.

* Jammin' Salmon Junction has a very narrow basket area, and leaves you vulnerable to Steel Eels and larger boss salmonids, and the whole stage gets worse during high tide, leaving only a narrow horizontal rectangle with two protuberant squares with ''no'' inkable walls or places to hide of any sort, and if you are unlucky enough to get a Glowflies rush or a Griller event, it's pretty much a death sentence as there's no places to hide and ''very'' easy to get overwhelmed by Boss Salmonids if you don't deal with them ASAP.
