One of the best approaches to mastering any game is to view each and every battle as a chance to learn. In the gaming world, every opponent you’ll face presents what’s known as a ‘tell.’ This is essentially a subtle hint about their next move – and sometimes even clues you in on which of your characters they’ll target. For instance, Hydro Seedles have a predictable habit of spinning in the direction of their attack. Similarly, Soreboars demonstrate a tell by scratching the ground a specific number of times before they charge at you. Drillbys give a little more away since they’ll actually look towards either Mario or Luigi before they burrow underground for an attack. Spotting these tells is all about observing and understanding opponent patterns. Take your time, closely watch these cues, and soon enough, you’ll know exactly when to defend, dodge, or launch a counter-attack with precision!
