LET THE ACTION BEGIN
#ringracers
Planned for a good while but never materialized until now, here's finally a Battle Mode Guide for Ring Racers!
This one has a lot of unpack as there's quite a lot of details in the Battle Mode, making it pretty unique to play...but also intimidating to approach blind if everybody else how to plays.
The Insta-Whip is also featured here as I didn't cover it in the Mechanics guide, but you'll really want to know of it if you want to try Battle.
DISCLAIMER: Battle Mode can only be played with two or more players - there are no bots supported for it. Creating a Battle mode match alone through the Online menu will put you into Prison Break mode for the map you chose as long as there aren't more players.
