Tips and tricks
- Watch the opponent, not your player. Their movement tells you where the ball or the gap is going to be.
- Small, steady inputs. Over-steering, over-swinging and over-jumping are the most common mistakes in every sports game.
- Defend first when you are ahead, attack first when you are behind. It sounds obvious, and yet.
- Timing beats power. Almost every sports game has a "sweet spot" input; find it in practice mode before you play for real.
- Because this is a Arcade game, restart early when a run goes wrong instead of grinding out a poor score.
- Because this is a Sports game, timing beats power.
