Here are some Tips and Tricks for how to get first place in Super Mario Bros 35: the Mario Battle Royale game.
Tips and Tricks
- Collect all the coins you can. Coins can be used to start off with a power up or get a random one midlevel (by pressing X). Get all the ones you can.
- Start off with the Super Mushroom or Fire Flower. If you’re particularly skilled you can use a Super Mushroom so that the next power up you get will be a Fire Flower but if you’re a bit apprehensive, go for the Fire Flower right away to easily shoot enemies down instead of doing painstaking platforming.
- Hit the top of the flag pole. The higher you get on the flag pole, the more time you get so this is an easy way to give yourself an edge.
- Kill every enemy you can. This gives you more time to finish a level and adds extra obstacles to your opponent’s stage.
- Use the Item Roulette strategically. By pressing X and then X again to select you can get a random item. This costs 20 coins so use it wisely!
- Do the Daily Challenges. The awards are 100, 200, and 300 coins which are a valuable resource for future runs.
- Remember you can’t move backwards in the level. If you can no longer see it on screen, it’s inaccessible. So don’t go off attacking Goombas thinking you can swing back to the Question Block you passed by.
- Be mindful of who you’re attacking. You can attack the player with the most coins, lowest time, attackers, or random.
- Target people directly with the left stick. While you can let the game select the person for you you can also target a person directly. Use the left stick to pick the player who is in a particularly hard level or who needs to do some difficult jumps to put the pressure on them.
- Consider remapping controls. By default you move with the directional buttons, run with y, and jump with B while using the left analog stick to select who you’re attacking. If this feels unnatural to you select “options” when starting the game and remap the controls.
- In 1-1 never go down the pipe because you get 20 coins instantly from the hidden 1-up between pipe three and the first gap. It’s possible to get both the 1up and go down the pipe but it’s a lot more challenging.
- Consider starting in an underwater level because killing these enemies will add an extra layer of confusion for players who are on land.
