How to score goals and win in Azure Latch

When you start a match, it’s important to focus on establishing good positioning and nailing the ball capture. As mentioned earlier, carrying the ball slows your movement by a significant margin, so a common strategy is to swiftly kick the ball away and capture it using various dash techniques. This not only saves you from being tackled but also allows you to exploit open spaces on the field.

Scoring goals is a matter of outsmarting the goalkeeper. One effective method is to misdirect the goalkeeper by switching directions rapidly. For example, moving one way and then dashing in the opposite direction creates openings for a shot. Curve shots are particularly useful when trying to bypass a goalkeeper who is often fixated on your initial direction.

Advanced Movement Tricks in Azure Latch

Azure Latch is known for its movement tech, and these advanced techniques while not easy to pull off, provide you a strong competitive edge. Below is a table summarizing several advanced movement techniques.

TrickHow To Do
Shooting GlitchShoot the ball at a specific angle inside the box to force the goalkeeper into an unresponsive state.
Dribble ComboCombine slides, tackles, and side dashes to move with the ball without speeding down.
Wall ReboundWhen near a wall, kick the ball forcefully so that it bounces off, giving you an unexpected second chance to collect or shoot.
Ball FlickExecute a soft upward flick, then reposition quickly to retrieve the ball while defenders are distracted.
Camera AdjustmentSwitch to CameraToggle mode and zoom out to gain a better situational overview of the pitch.

Best Settings and Tips for Azure Latch

For the best gameplay experience on PC, it is advised to zoom out as much as possible. This provides a broader view of the field, allowing you to spot opponents and potential gaps in their formation quickly.

Relying solely on your crosshair can be misleading, so, aim slightly above your target to account for ball roll and momentum. As you become more comfortable with the basic controls and movement, experiment with the advanced techniques to make the most out of your Style.
