It’s best to start out with the basics. Perfect dodges aren’t the most difficult maneuver to pull off, but there’s nothing wrong with learning the fundamentals first.

Dodging in Mario Strikers Battle League

This dodge (and the perfect one) can be used at any time while playing. Simply press the R button to dodge in the direction you’re holding the left stick. If you’re not holding any direction, then the player will either dodge sideways or forwards.

It’s important to remember to not spam the dodge button (R). Dodging three times in a row in close succession will tire out the character and make it impossible for them to dodge for a short time.

Perfect Dodge in Mario Strikers Battle League

Don’t overthink this. Perfect dodging still requires the exact same input just with different timing. When an item is thrown or a player on the opposing team goes for a tackle, press R right before you’re about to get hit. Pull this off with perfect timing and you’ll get a short speed boost which just might lead to a breakaway.

That’s all there is to know about how to dodge and perfect dodge in Mario Strikers: Battle League.
