Best Offensive Battle Plug Combos

Ka-Ball

Battle Plug Combo
Kaboom AttackKaboom Attack + Surprise Iron BallSurprise Iron Ball

One of the best Battle Plug Combos to use is the Ka-Ball using a combination of Kaboom Attack and Surprise Iron Ball.

Kaboom Attack allows you to damage nearby targets if you get an Excellent rating with a Jump or Hammer attack. On the other hand, Surprise Iron Ball spawns an iron ball to drop on the target when you get an Excellent rating with a Jump or Hammer attack.

Combine both of these to deal extra damage to multiple foes, allowing you to clear enemy battles easily.

Statusplosion

Massive single target: Spike, Spike, double attack, weakness, then either second weakness, Charge+ or Waitaminnut BroFromKeyboard: Bro boost, Bro efficiency, Easy Excellent, Auto Deluxe, auto Syrup I Will Survive: Appropriate resist, Defense shield, Auto Mushroom/1up, survive 1HP, and Comebackattack One thing to keep in mind, most plugs don't work with Bros moves, only hammer and Jump. Those are the three I typically use and cycle between.
