Stick Soccer - Team 3 (Cameroon/South Korea)

In today's post, I'm going to show you how to defeat Team 3 of World Domination (Cameroon for me, but may differ for you) in your first try. If this is your first time here, please have a look at the introduction to this tutorial first, to get an idea of understanding the terms I use, HERE.

Now, onto the actual game. The first half of the game is in the short area at an angle of around 45 degrees from you. This area is pretty easy to score from if you know where to shoot. Just aim for the areas marked in red in the picture and it should be a goal.

Stick Soccer - Team 2 (South Korea/Australia)

In today's post,we're going to learn how to beat the second World Domiantion team which, in my case, is South Korea. If this is the first time you're here, be sure to have a look at my last post HERE.

Before we start, I'm going to teach you an important technique which we are going to use in today's game - curving the ball. This technique is only used when you are in the long area i.e., when you are far away from the goal, or in some other special cases. First, make sure you practise just shooting the ball without trying anything fancy. Only if you think you are able to connect the ball almost every turn, you can proceed to learn curving.

In order to curve the ball, first keep your finger on the ball as you normally would and then, instead of shooting it in a straight path, curve your finger in the direction you want the ball to move - either left to right or right to left. I find left to right easier to learn and master, although you may have a different opinion. Both take some time to learn, so I suggest that you play a few games just to practise the curving before actually trying to win.

Now that that's done, let's move on to the actual game. The first half is pretty easy to score from as it's in the short area.

Stick Soccer - Team 1 (Australia/Scotland)

Hello and welcome back to my Stick Sports tutorial! Check out my last post with the introduction of this tutorial if you haven't already done so.

Ok, now get ready to win your first world domination game! For most people, including me, this game is versus Australia. However, even if this differs for you, don't worry as the game is still pretty much the same.

As I mentioned in my previous post, remember that you can play world domination matches as many times as you want without a penalty. So, if this is your first game, take your time in learning the controls and mechanisms of this game. For those who haven't played a game yet, you have to slide the ball towards the goal as it comes rolling.

Stick Soccer - Introduction

Hello all, and welcome to the tutorial for the newly launched iOS game - Stick Soccer by Stick Sports. If you haven't downloaded it already, you can get it for free HERE on the App Store.

So let's start with the basics of the game. You first login and choose your country. The objective of this game is just to shoot moving footballs into the goal. The World Domination game mode allows you to play for your country, against others in order, starting from Australia (which may vary depending on the country you choose). As you win games, you unlock new teams to play against. The other game mode is Time Attack. Here, you shoot goals and earn points for every goal. You have one minute to accumulate as many points as you can, although you can get time bonuses along the way.

An important fact to remember is that this tutorial depends on which position the team you are playing against is from first, not the team itself. The team varies depending on which country you are playing for. So, if you are looking for the tutorial for defeating Australia in a World Domination, and it is the second team you are playing against, look for the tutorial with the heading containing Team 2, irrespective of which team is mentioned in the heading.
