Beginner's Guide to
Super Battle Golf

Everything you need to know to survive your first match, master the controls, and start climbing from last place to first.

What is Super Battle Golf?

Super Battle Golf is a chaotic multiplayer party game where up to 8 players compete simultaneously on a golf course — but with rockets, mines, lasers, and golf carts. There are no turns. Everyone plays at the same time, making it a frantic race to the hole while sabotaging everyone around you.

Think of it as Mario Kart meets golf. You need to balance two competing objectives:

The game is available on Steam and supports both online and local multiplayer.

⌨️ Basic Controls

Super Battle Golf uses simple, intuitive controls that anyone can pick up. Mastering them, however, takes practice:

Movement

  • ✔ WASD — Move your character
  • ✔ Space — Jump
  • ✔ Shift — Sprint (limited stamina)

Golfing

  • ✔ Left Mouse Button (Hold & Release) — Charge and execute your swing. The longer you hold, the more power.
  • ✔ Mouse Movement — Aim the direction and angle of your shot.

Items

  • ✔ E — Pick up items from purple suitcases
  • ✔ Q / 1-3 — Switch between carried items
  • ✔ Right Mouse Button — Use the equipped item

🔑 Key Tip: The most common beginner mistake is spending too long charging your shot. In Super Battle Golf, a quick 70% power shot that moves you forward is almost always better than a perfect 100% power shot that takes 5 seconds to charge — because during those 5 seconds, someone is firing a rocket at your face.

⛳ Mastering Your Swing

Your golf swing is your most important tool. Here's how to make every shot count:

Power vs. Speed: The Core Dilemma

Charging a shot for maximum power gives you distance, but it leaves you exposed. In the chaos of any given match, being stationary is dangerous. Here's the golden rule:

🏆 "Three quick 70% shots beat one perfect 100% shot."

Movement wins games. Standing still gets you killed.

Elevation and Angle

The physics engine is realistic enough to reward smart shot selection:

Ball Collision Physics

When golf balls collide, realistic knockback sends them flying. This means:

🎒 Item Strategy for Beginners

Items spawn in purple suitcases scattered across each course. You can carry up to 3 items at once. Here's what beginners should know:

Beginner-Friendly Items (Pick These Up First)

  • 🚀 Rocket Launcher — Auto-aims at the nearest opponent. Point, click, done. See full ranking →
  • 🏎️ Golf Cart — Drive fast, ram people. Simple and effective.
  • ☕ Coffee — Speed boost. Run faster. Can't mess it up.

Items That Need Practice

  • 💣 Landmine — Powerful, but requires map knowledge to place effectively.
  • 🔫 Elephant Gun — High damage, but the recoil can kill you if positioned poorly.
  • 🛰️ Orbital Laser — Devastating, but rare and requires timing to maximize impact.

🔑 Key Tip: Don't go out of your way to grab suitcases that are far from the optimal path to the hole. The time you spend detouringfor items is time your opponents spend getting ahead. Only grab suitcases that are directly in your path.

🚫 Top 5 Beginner Mistakes

1. Standing Still to Aim

This is the #1 killer of new players. In Super Battle Golf, you are always a target. Quick, imperfect shots are better than slow, perfect ones. Keep moving.

2. Ignoring Items Completely

Some beginners try to play Super Battle Golf like a regular golf game, focusing only on putting. This is a mistake. Items are force multipliers — a well-placed mine can delay 3 opponents simultaneously.

3. Holding Items Too Long

Your inventory is limited to 3 slots. If you're hoarding an Orbital Laser "for the perfect moment," you're missing out on using 2 other items. Use your items aggressively — you'll find more suitcases.

4. Chasing the Leader

New players often waste time trying to attack whoever is in first place instead of focusing on their own progress. Focus on reaching the hole first — sabotage only when it's convenient, not when it requires a massive detour.

5. Not Learning the Maps

Every Super Battle Golf course has shortcuts, hidden suitcase spawns, and optimal routes. Players who know the map will always outperform players who don't. Check our map guide →

Final Advice for New Super Battle Golf Players

The single most important thing to remember as a beginner is that Super Battle Golf rewards adaptability above all else. No two matches play out the same way because human opponents create unpredictable scenarios that no amount of planning can fully prepare you for. Embrace the chaos, learn from every loss, and focus on improving one skill at a time — whether that is shot accuracy, item timing, or map awareness. The players who climb the leaderboard fastest are those who treat every round as a learning opportunity rather than just a competition.
