Attack Riders (name in all regions) is one of the ten Battle types in Kirby: Battle Royale. It pits contestants against each-other in a looping circular arena where the goal is to obtain the most tokens, stealing them from opponents by attacking them, or ramming them with a vehicle.
Overview
Contestants are placed in a circular arena, locked to looping around it in two dimensions. The game can be played either in teams or in free-for-all. Each contestant starts with 100 tokens, and has to gain more by stealing them from rivals. This can be done by attacking them, either with Copy Abilities, or with a vehicle that appears every now and then on the stage. This vehicle will either be a Blaze Wheelie or a Lobster Tank, which attack in different manners, and can be destroyed if hit enough times.
Like most other battle modes, contestants have Vitality, and losing all of it will cause them to be KO'd and temporarily removed from the arena.
Stages
There are two stages available for Attack Riders. They are as follows:
Attack Biker
The stage contains two platform decks which hang over the floor that can be dropped through. Every so often, a Blaze Wheelie is dropped into the arena.
The Blaze Wheelie can be used to ram opponents at very high speed using a special attack.
Attack Tanker
The stage has no auxiliary platforms, and consists only of a circular floor. Every so often, a Lobster Tank is dropped into the arena.
The Lobster Tank is somewhat slow, but it fires powerful rounds of energy that can be charged for greater effect.
Trivia
- The Blaze Wheelie is similar in design and size to the Rex Wheelie from Kirby Air Ride.
- The Lobster Tank is based on the boss Heavy Lobster, from Kirby Super Star (Ultra).
