If you love fast-paced, aggressive play with a psychological edge, Joker Style is perfect for you.
Like every other Style in Basketball Zero, you can obtain the Joker Style through the in-game gacha system. Here's a step-by-step guide:
Pro Tip: Use Lucky Spins exclusively for limited styles like Joker, as the 1% rate significantly improves your odds compared to normal spins.
| Move | Key (Default) | Cooldown | Info |
|---|---|---|---|
| Smoke Trick | C | 60 Seconds | The player becomes invisible for 2 seconds with increased movement speed. Automatically revealed when shooting the ball. Perfect for juking defenders or slipping out of pressure. |
| Wild Card | C | 60 Seconds | 50% chance to teleport the ball back to your hands when someone tries to steal or block. If successful, player says "You thought you could keep that?" Can only be used within 5 seconds of losing the ball. |
| Laugh Breaker | V | 60 Seconds | Player says "Duck and Cover!" while laughing maniacally and performing a sharp crossover that stuns opponents and hands them a ticking rubber ducky. After a few beeps, opponents are left on the floor in smoke. |
| Move | Key (Default) | Cooldown | Info |
|---|---|---|---|
| Ducky Shot | B | One-Time Use | The lights dim as Joker dribbles lazily at half court. Pulls a rubber ducky from behind his back, tosses it toward an opponent before launching it at the hoop. Just before impact, it transforms into a basketball and explodes through the rim. Usable on opponent's side of court. |
| Trick Mirror | C | 50 Seconds | Creates a fake clone that mirrors Joker's moves for 10 seconds. If opponents try to steal or block the clone, they're hit with a purple smoke explosion and stunned. The clone disappears when you shoot. |
To complement the Joker Style update, several new cosmetics have been added:

This update includes several improvements to make gameplay smoother and more enjoyable:
Joker Style focuses on confusing the opposing team and scoring points through psychological warfare and unpredictable movements. It's designed for players who enjoy outsmarting opponents rather than just outplaying them physically.
Use Smoke Trick to create confusion, then immediately follow up with a quick drive to the basket. The invisibility effect makes it hard for defenders to anticipate your movement, creating easy scoring opportunities.
Save Wild Card for moments when you anticipate a steal or block attempt. The 50% chance to retain possession can turn defensive situations into offensive opportunities.
Use Laugh Breaker when surrounded by multiple defenders. The stun effect creates space and allows you to either score or pass to open teammates.
Save your Awakened abilities for crucial moments. Ducky Shot is particularly effective in close games, as the dramatic animation and guaranteed basket can shift momentum.
Joker Style works best with specific team compositions that complement its strengths:
With 60-second cooldowns, spamming abilities leaves you vulnerable. Use them strategically rather than constantly.
While Joker Style is offense-focused, completely ignoring defense will hurt your team. Position yourself well and help when possible.
The strength of Joker Style is unpredictability. If you become predictable, you lose your main advantage.
Save your one-time Ducky Shot for crucial moments when you absolutely need a basket.
Based on developer announcements and community discussions, here's what to expect:

Yes, if you enjoy chaotic, unpredictable playstyles and psychological gameplay. It's particularly effective for players who like to outsmart opponents rather than just outplay them physically.
Focus on creating confusion with your abilities, then capitalize on the chaos to score. Use Smoke Trick for positioning, Wild Card for ball security, and save your Awakened abilities for crucial moments.
While primarily offensive, Joker Style has limited defensive capabilities. The Wild Card ability can help retain possession, but you'll need to rely on positioning and team support for defense.
As a limited style, Joker Style will likely be available for several months, but there's no guarantee it will return once removed from the gacha pool.
Base abilities are available immediately, while Awakened abilities require you to reach a certain performance threshold in-game and are typically more powerful or have unique effects.
The developers have fixed several visual bugs with dunk animations in this update. If you encounter any issues, report them on the official Discord server.
