The key to success in Ball vs Ball is building a large and varied collection of strong balls, which you can do through leveling up, Gacha spins, the Event Store, or daily rewards. Since each match randomly gives you three balls, having more options increases your chances of getting a favorable lineup. During matches, pay attention to your opponent's choices and use counters based on each ball's strengths and weaknesses, while saving Rerolls and Tickets for situations where your options are particularly unfavorable.
Ball vs Ball is a fun Roblox experience where you collect special balls with unique effects and pit them in a 1v1 or 2v2 arena against other players' balls. The more good balls you have, the better your chances of winning. This thorough beginner's guide explains exactly how to do that, how to pick and choose your ball matchups to your advantage, and much more! Keep reading to discover it all.
How to Get Better Balls in Ball vs Ball
As we said, getting better balls in Ball vs Ball is paramount because they directly determine the course of a match. Strong balls aren't enough, though; you also need a large collection to increase your chances of getting good ones once a match starts. There are several ways to do this. The first is to get free balls when you level up. The second is to roll the Ball Gacha whenever you have coins, and the third is to buy them from the Event Store. You can also like the game and join its group to unlock advanced ball gacha, which will give you better balls.
As you play and finish matches, you collect XP; each time you level up, you add a new ball to your collection. For the gacha, you can access it from the Store menu or by walking up to and interacting with the gacha machine at spawn. The event Store is also located in the Store, which you can access by pressing the corresponding button located on the left side of your screen.
How to Farm Coins in Ball vs Ball
Since the Gacha method of obtaining balls is most common, you will want to accumulate as many coins as possible, since each spin costs 600. There are several ways to do this. The first and most obvious one is to play matches. Ideally, you will want to win, since that brings 100 coins instead of only 20 when you lose. The second method pairs well with the first, since it involves completing daily quests. You can track them in the top right of the game screen, and they usually require you to play a small number of games or win a few. Finally, you can claim daily online rewards, which only require you to play the game for up to an hour a day for maximum profit.
Quests pay 100 coins each when completed, and you can earn up to 400 coins from online rewards. You can access them by clicking the "gifts" button in the top left of your screen. You can also get a x2 coin modifier that lasts 10 minutes this way, so that's another reason to go for these rewards.
Finally, you can also redeem some of the free codes that the game offers for some easy extra coins.
What are the Best Strategies in Ball vs Ball
At first glance, Ball vs Ball might seem like it is all down to luck with no strategy involved, but you would be mistaken. When a match starts, you'll be randomly assigned three balls from your inventory. Not all balls are created equal: some are better at dealing ranged damage, some excel at raw impact force, some take time to prep up the arena in order to show their full potential, while others have other special RNG abilities that are heavily influenced by luck, and they do not fall into either one of the previous categories. The categories counter each other, just like when playing Rock, Paper, Scissors.
This means your balls need to be good, but you also need a lot of them so you have better odds of getting balls from these categories and avoid gaps in your potential lineup.
The main strategy I have found the most success with is as follows:
- Once a match starts, pick one of the more solid, decent options. They involve either the Charge ball from the melee options, Spider Ball from the arena prepping options, or the Thief ball from the Ranged options. Other balls, of course, work just as well of course, and you will find which ones fit the "solid, but not OP" description as you play the game
- Since most other players immediately choose their best possible ball, this lets you gather intel on it while still keeping reasonable chances of victory. If the opponent wins the round, he will likely keep the same ball in the second as well, emboldened by his success. Pick an appropriate hard counter to level the score.
- If you win a round, the opponent will likely change the ball, disheartened by this outcome. Anticipate that and compensate by choosing a new ball of your own. Use the same principle for other rounds as well.
- If you are using a ball that deals damage by prepping up the arena or a ranged option, don't blindly rush toward an opponent using a melee option! Instead, launch yourself towards the corners of the arena. The opposite is also true: if you suspect the opponent will try to flee when you have the melee option and he has the ranged one, try predicting him by launching yourself toward either corner instead of directly at the opponent.
- Ultimately, a lot of it boils down to luck in this game, and not every opponent plays the same. Try to adapt if you notice this, and do not feel down if you lose several games in a row, since your bad luck can easily turn 180 degrees. While this strategy I've described does not guarantee wins, it certainly increases your chances of a favorable outcome.
Tip: If you are dissatisfied with the balls assigned to you, you can press the small Reroll button in the bottom right of the screen to get a new set; just be careful, since this costs Gems, the premium currency in this game. You can also spend a Ticket and select any of the balls you own. These tickets are hard to come by, so only use them when absolutely needed.
