Tips and tricks

  • If there is a power meter, release slightly earlier than feels natural; most meters are tuned so that "full" is too much.
  • Play a full season or tournament rather than single matches; the progression makes each match matter more.
  • Timing beats power. Almost every sports game has a "sweet spot" input; find it in practice mode before you play for real.
  • Watch the opponent, not your player. Their movement tells you where the ball or the gap is going to be.
  • Because this is a Jumping game, watch the landing spot, not your character.
