Azure Latch is a fast-paced Roblox experience where you'll need to score goals as players and defend as goalkeepers. Having tons of controls, and tricks that you can perform, it can be quite overwhelming for new players to get the hang of it. So, to help you with that, this Azure Latch Beginner's guide will walk you through the basics of Azure Latch, from fundamentals to even the pro movement techniques.
As you play in Azure Latch, you'll have to change different modes such as dribbling, shooting, tackling, and dashing. When you have the ball, the movement speed is noticeably slower, and having a clear idea about the gameplay mechanics is essential. So, below are tables outlining the primary controls for both players and goalkeepers using a keyboard setup.
Action | Key/Button | Description |
---|---|---|
Normal/Header Mode | E | Switches between Normal and Header modes when you are not holding the ball. |
Shoot | Left Click (M1) | Fires the ball forward. |
Curve Shot | Hold A/D + M1 | When looking slightly upward, performs a curved shot to bypass defenders. |
Rainbow Flick | SPACE | Flicks the ball over your head for an aerial maneuver. This move has a 2.5-second cooldown. |
Dribble | E (with ball) | Dashes forward to break through opponents while granting invincibility frames. Has a 2.75-second cooldown. |
Tackle | Q | Lunges to steal the ball; a successful tackle stuns the opponent. Has a 3.5-second cooldown. |
Side Dash | A/D + Q | Executes a dash sideways, available every 2 seconds. |
Speed Burst | F | Provides a short burst of forward speed with invincibility frames. Cooldown of 5 seconds. |

Action | Key/Button | Description |
---|---|---|
Jump Block | SPACE | Blocks aerial balls coming toward the goal. |
Forward Dive | Q | Dives forward to intercept shots and clear the ball. |
Left Dive | A + Q | Performs a dive to the left, helping you reach incoming threats at the side of the goal. |
Right Dive | D + Q | Executes a dive to the right to cover more lateral ground. |
Super Throw | T or Hold Ball | Launches a powerful throw forward after holding the ball for a set period. Ideal for fast counterattacks. |
When you start a match, it’s important to focus on establishing good positioning and nailing the ball capture. As mentioned earlier, carrying the ball slows your movement by a significant margin, so a common strategy is to swiftly kick the ball away and capture it using various dash techniques. This not only saves you from being tackled but also allows you to exploit open spaces on the field.
Scoring goals is a matter of outsmarting the goalkeeper. One effective method is to misdirect the goalkeeper by switching directions rapidly. For example, moving one way and then dashing in the opposite direction creates openings for a shot. Curve shots are particularly useful when trying to bypass a goalkeeper who is often fixated on your initial direction.
Azure Latch is known for its movement tech, and these advanced techniques while not easy to pull off, provide you a strong competitive edge. Below is a table summarizing several advanced movement techniques.
Trick | How To Do |
---|---|
Shooting Glitch | Shoot the ball at a specific angle inside the box to force the goalkeeper into an unresponsive state. |
Dribble Combo | Combine slides, tackles, and side dashes to move with the ball without speeding down. |
Wall Rebound | When near a wall, kick the ball forcefully so that it bounces off, giving you an unexpected second chance to collect or shoot. |
Ball Flick | Execute a soft upward flick, then reposition quickly to retrieve the ball while defenders are distracted. |
Camera Adjustment | Switch to CameraToggle mode and zoom out to gain a better situational overview of the pitch. |
For the best gameplay experience on PC, it is advised to zoom out as much as possible. This provides a broader view of the field, allowing you to spot opponents and potential gaps in their formation quickly.
Relying solely on your crosshair can be misleading, so, aim slightly above your target to account for ball roll and momentum. As you become more comfortable with the basic controls and movement, experiment with the advanced techniques to make the most out of your Style.
