Super Bot Brawl Controls: How to Dash and What Keys You Can Rebind

Double-tap W to dash, rebind sprint in settings, and the Sword Spin float trick, sourced from actual footage.

01How do you dash in Super Bot Brawl?

Seen in player footage — DigitizedPixels, 27 August 2026, video _TB3VEL9bwI; DigitizedPixels, 29 August 2026, video aqRUQ0GGZLI

Press W twice in a row to trigger a sprint or dash. One creator shows this on camera in two separate videos. Testing the game as Sword Brute during the tutorial, they say on screen, "in order to run, you got to double tap W if you're on keyboard" (DigitizedPixels, 27 August 2026, video _TB3VEL9bwI). Two days later, testing the Bomb Race, the same creator calls it "the sprinting mechanism in the game where you have to double tap W" and adds that it is not their preferred control scheme (DigitizedPixels, 29 August 2026, video aqRUQ0GGZLI).

Neither video shows a mobile or console equivalent, and the creator never says what happens if you hold W instead of tapping it twice. Both videos are filmed on keyboard, so treat double-tap-W as the confirmed keyboard behaviour only, not a universal control scheme.

02You can rebind the sprint key in settings

Seen in player footage — DigitizedPixels, 1 September 2026, video lXW5uffK_Ws; comment by mint78562 on video aqRUQ0GGZLI

The double-tap requirement is not fixed. In a video posted on 1 September 2026, the same creator opens the settings menu on screen and says, "I was told you can change the keybind for your sprint. Just go here at the bottom and just put it onto whatever" (DigitizedPixels, 1 September 2026, video lXW5uffK_Ws).

A viewer comment on the Bomb Race video adds a detail the footage itself does not show: "you can change keybind and you only need to press once in settings" (comment by mint78562 on video aqRUQ0GGZLI). Read together, this suggests that once sprint is rebound to a new key, a single press of that key runs instead of a double-tap. That reading comes from one sentence in one comment, not from anyone filming the rebind and then testing it, so treat the single-press detail as a plausible but unconfirmed extension of the settings-menu footage.

03Sword Hero's hidden float trick: Sword Spin plus hold jump

Seen in player footage — DigitizedPixels, 27 August 2026, video _TB3VEL9bwI (footage and comment by thjrygy6168); comments by TVMAN-hw3or and NamoNamo-z8p on video -lo95yJJkZg

Sword Hero has a move called Sword Spin. On camera, a creator reaches the Sword Race's Hero tier and uses Sword Spin, reacting with enthusiasm as it plays out (DigitizedPixels, 27 August 2026, video _TB3VEL9bwI). The footage confirms the move exists and is used at that tier; the creator's narration in that moment does not itself describe rising off the ground or moving in the air, so the specific claim that holding jump during Sword Spin makes the character float comes from comments, not from anything said on camera.

Three separate comments describe the same two inputs without quoting the video or each other. An English comment on that same video states it plainly: "you can fly as Sword Hero when using Sword Spin while jumping" (comment by thjrygy6168 on video _TB3VEL9bwI). Two Thai-language comments on an unrelated Sword Man review video independently describe the identical trick, translated here: one says to use the spin move and then hold jump to float upward, the other says holding jump while spinning the sword lets you glide like a plane (comments by TVMAN-hw3or and NamoNamo-z8p on video -lo95yJJkZg).

Three independent comments describing the same two inputs, in two languages, without quoting the video or each other, is unusually strong agreement for this wiki, so we treat the float as confirmed even though the video itself never narrates it. What none of the sources say is how long the float lasts, whether it has its own cooldown separate from Sword Spin's, or whether it works on every Sword Race tier or only Hero.

04Sword Hero also has Thrust, a long-range movement move

Seen in player footage — DigitizedPixels, 27 August 2026, video _TB3VEL9bwI

Besides the Sword Spin float, Sword Hero has a move the game itself labels Thrust that covers a lot of ground in one use. On camera, a creator introduces Sword Hero and fires off Thrust before moving on to test Sword Spin (DigitizedPixels, 27 August 2026, video _TB3VEL9bwI).

The footage does not say whether Thrust is on a separate input from Sword Spin, what its cooldown is, or whether other Sword Race tiers besides Hero get the same move. This is a single source, so treat Thrust as a real, on-screen ability with an unmeasured range and cooldown rather than a fully documented one.

05Bomb Hero's jetpack has its own fuel gauge and cooldown

Seen in player footage — DigitizedPixels, 29 August 2026, video aqRUQ0GGZLI

Bomb Hero does not use the Sword Spin float trick; it carries a jetpack instead. A creator activates it mid-fight and narrates a fuel bar appearing on the left side of the screen, then stops using it and asks aloud when it refills, confirming there is "a slight cool down on that" before it recharges (DigitizedPixels, 29 August 2026, video aqRUQ0GGZLI).

The footage never shows which key or button starts the jetpack, only that it exists, drains with use, and needs a short cooldown to refill. Do not assume it shares an input with sprint or jump; nothing we have confirms that either way.

06You must be at full health to switch characters

Seen in player footage — DigitizedPixels, 27 August 2026, video _TB3VEL9bwI

Switching between your unlocked characters mid-run is blocked unless your current character is at full health. One creator states this directly while comparing the rule to the same studio's earlier game, saying on screen, "just like in Super Toilet Brawl, in order to change characters, you do have to have full health" (DigitizedPixels, 27 August 2026, video _TB3VEL9bwI).

This comes from a single video, so treat it as one player's account rather than a confirmed rule until a second source shows the same restriction.

07What we have not checked

Not known

This page is built from keyboard footage from two videos, one settings-menu clip, and four scattered comments in two languages. Several real gaps remain open.

Record a mobile or console session and note the sprint input, rebind an ability other than sprint and film whether the option exists, and press whatever key starts Bomb Hero's jetpack while the HUD is visible.

Frequently asked

How do you dash in Super Bot Brawl?

Press W twice quickly to sprint or dash. The same creator confirms this on keyboard in two separate videos while testing the Sword and Bomb races (DigitizedPixels, videos _TB3VEL9bwI and aqRUQ0GGZLI). Only the keyboard input has been shown on camera.

Can you change the sprint key in Super Bot Brawl?

Yes. The settings menu has an option near the bottom to rebind sprint to a different key, shown on screen in a video posted 1 September 2026 (DigitizedPixels, video lXW5uffK_Ws). A comment on a separate video adds that after rebinding you may only need to press the new key once rather than double-tapping it, though no footage confirms that detail directly.

How do you make Sword Hero fly or float?

Use the Sword Spin move and hold the jump input at the same time. Three independent comments in two languages describe this combination lifting the character briefly off the ground so it can keep moving in the air; the video that shows Sword Spin being used does not itself narrate the floating.

Why can't I switch characters in Super Bot Brawl?

Your current character must be at full health before you can switch to another unlocked character. One creator states this rule directly and compares it to the same restriction in the developer's earlier game, Super Toilet Brawl. It is currently a single-source claim.

What are the mobile controls for Super Bot Brawl?

Not confirmed. The creator who demonstrates the double-tap sprint on keyboard says on camera that he does not know the mobile or console equivalent, and none of the footage we have covers a touchscreen session.

Does Bomb Hero's jetpack use a separate button?

It has its own fuel gauge and a short cooldown before it recharges, both visible on screen in one video, but the footage never shows which key or button starts it, so the activation input is unconfirmed.
