What is Captain Salute?
Captain Salute is catalogued as common and still ranked S for 2v2 because the buff hits the whole team. A 2025 list called it the best awakening for the same reason and described the buff as speed. Later guides say a large stat buff and a flag. Rarity and strength are not the same thing here.

How do you get Captain Salute?
Awakening spin. Common rarity makes it a realistic early roll.
How do you use Captain Salute?
Pop it when your team is about to play a full rally, not during a dead ball. It does less in 1v1 than Gooey because you have no teammate to buff.
