The newest Slap Battles update introduces the Riftshot Glove, a precision-based glove with a unique long-range attack mechanic, along with the Bullseye Badge required to unlock it. This guide explains everything you need to know — including the exact method to unlock the glove, the best strategy to do it fast, and a full showcase of its ability.
1. Riftshot Glove Overview
Glove Name: Riftshot
Power: 52
Speed: 16
Ability: Fissure Arrow (E)
Badge Required: Bullseye Badge
The Riftshot Glove fires a focused projectile that travels straight ahead, striking opponents with strong knockback. Its gameplay style rewards accuracy and timing rather than pure close-range aggression.
Unlike gloves such as Overkill or Joust, Riftshot’s E ability acts as a sniper shot — you aim, shoot, and if your projectile connects, you deal a precise and powerful hit.
2. How to Unlock the Bullseye Badge (and Riftshot Glove)
To unlock the Riftshot Glove, you first need to earn the Bullseye Badge. Here’s how to do it efficiently based on the steps shown in the video by Kumojan / Marcus:
Step-by-Step Method
Step 1: Join a Brazil Server
- Head into the Brazil server in Slap Battles.
This is recommended because it usually has fewer players and lower competition, making it easier to perform the required steps without constant interruptions.
Step 2: Equip the Cloud Glove
- Once in the Brazil server, equip the Cloud Glove.
- Use its ability to place a cloud anywhere on the map (this will be useful for positioning).
Step 3: Switch to Balloon Glove
- After placing your cloud, rejoin the arena and equip the Balloon Glove.
- The Cloud you placed earlier will stay in effect, allowing you to move or float above obstacles.
Step 4: Combine Movement & Precision
- Using the Balloon Glove, navigate toward your cloud area or higher ground.
- The idea is to create open space to aim your shot more accurately.
Step 5: Perform the Riftshot Task
- Now, hit an opponent with a perfect aim using the Riftshot ability (E: Fissure Arrow).
- You’ll need to land a direct shot to qualify for the Bullseye Badge.
- Once you hit successfully, the game will automatically grant the Bullseye Badge, unlocking the Riftshot Glove in your inventory.
3. Riftshot Ability Showcase
Ability Name: Fissure Arrow
Key: Press E to use
Effect:
- Fires a fast, straight-moving projectile.
- Deals heavy knockback if it hits an opponent directly.
- Requires aiming skill — the projectile moves linearly without tracking.
Gameplay Notes:
- The projectile speed is fairly quick but demands good reaction time.
- Hitting opponents mid-air or while they’re running grants more control over fights.
- Works best in open areas or 1v1 duels where players can’t hide behind obstacles.
4. Pro Tips to Unlock Faster
- Use Private Servers or Low-Player Brazil Servers
The fewer players there are, the easier it is to practice your shot without interference.
- Stand Still Targets First
Practice by hitting AFK players or slower movers — once you hit one, the badge unlocks instantly.
- Avoid Crowded Arenas
Large public servers make precision difficult due to knockback chaos and overlapping abilities.
- Check Cooldown Between Shots
Riftshot likely has a short cooldown between E uses — time your shots instead of spamming.
- High Ground Advantage
Using Balloon or Cloud combo gives you aerial vision for clearer aim angles.
5. Riftshot Glove Strategy & Usage
Once unlocked, Riftshot can become a dangerous tool in both standard Slap Battles and custom duels.
Best Use Cases:
- Long-range sniping: Tag players trying to run or hide.
- Zoning tool: Control space by shooting down narrow lanes or bridges.
- Punish predictability: Wait for players to move in a straight line, then fire.
Weaknesses:
- Slow cooldown after each shot.
- Requires precision; missing shots leaves you exposed.
- Close-range combat can overwhelm Riftshot users.
Counter Tips:
- Dodge sideways — Riftshot’s projectile travels straight only.
- Use speed-based gloves (like Phase or Joust) to avoid the hit.
