Take a turn towards greener pastures with an all-expenses-paid vacation to Spring Fling: Slam Dunk, the latest pine-fresh Event that’s just over the horizon! Book today!

Basketbrawl: Slam Dunk!

Trade that saltwater for springwater, because the only sodium chloride you’ll need is the saltiness of your defeated foes in a Basketbrawl dunk-a-thon! 

In the Basketbrawl: Slam Dunk Playlist, it’s a 3v3 game of scoring KOs by sinking your opponents in baskets by throwing… or DUNKING! For the greenhorns out there, KOing a brawler in Basketbrawl traps them in Ballform for a short time, and you’ll be throwing those brawlers through Hoops to score major points. Slam Dunk gives you even more ways to score – by carrying a brawler through a Hoop instead of throwing them, you’ll score 5 points instead of 3! Making a slam dunk has never been easier or more satisfying, because all brawlers will have the bunny-like ability to Super Double Jump! With these high-flyin’ changes, you’ll be soarin’ over Knockout City to score big plays. 30 points will secure the round for you and your peeps, best two of three to win the match!

Eggcellent Contracts!

If you were hopin’ to chow down on some chococoins, you’re a little too late – all the pirates got to them first, and I’m pretty sure they were a little bit expired and/or radioactive. Might explain all the Superpowered Double Jumps everyone seems to have right now… So have some of these Eggcellent Contracts instead! Each one’s an omelet full of XP, Holobux, or Style Chips to fill up on, so get cookin’.

Speaking of eggs, the hunt has returned! 100 hidden Eggs are tucked away on Knockout City’s maps, and your Contracts list will help track your progress in finding them all. When you’re not too busy dunking on your rivals, take a breezy break to hunt for some Eggs. It’s like the Treasure Hunt never ends!

Eight Eggcellent Contracts in the basket will give your profile a rabbit redesign with the Legendary Player Icon “Good Hare Day.” Find every Egg to rain supreme over all 16 Contracts – you’ll earn a new doe-eyed Epic Face “Fun-Time Faun.” It’s got adorable spring-themed makeup that’s perfect for, say, the upcoming Spring Pageant at the rec center. Hope you rehearsed the script, because you’re on in five!

Dex’s Tech Tips: Basketbrawl Slam Dunk

Ready to put a spring in your step with Super Double Jump? Master the Slam Dunk and you’ll be raining on parades in no time! 

• Slam Dunks are the best way to get ahead, so play close to the Hoops and hop to it when you get a chance to score a five-point play!
• Brawl close to your buddies: if you’re trapped in Ballform, your teammates can lend a hand by keeping you out of danger, or fully charging you to release you from Ballform early.
• There’s no goaltending penalty in Basketbrawl! Try to jump in front of a Hoop to catch a teammate before they get thrown through it, and you’ll be their hero.
• Super Double Jump is a very flexible Superpower! Use it to approach your opponents from high-up angles that are tough to see coming, or to traverse the map faster with shortcuts. 
• KOing an opponent in a pit or hazard only gives one point, versus three for a basket or five for a dunk. If you’re alone and trapped in Ballform, you may want to minimize your opponents’ potential point gains by “accidentally” rolling off of the map before they catch you.
• Professional Basketbrawlers know that passing is a game changer! If you don’t have a clear shot on a Hoop, try passing your Ballform opponent to a teammate so they can make the dunk for maximum points.
