Unlocking the Super Battle Golf Reaper Outfit Set
The super battle golf reaper outfit is one of the most sought-after cosmetic sets in the game, offering a dark, intimidating aesthetic that perfectly matches the chaotic, combat-heavy nature of the fairways. Rather than buying these items from an in-game shop, players must earn them through raw tactical performance. The entire set is tied directly to the Behind You! achievement, which challenges you to master the art of the stealth attack.
To complete this achievement and claim your rewards, you must knock out 250 opponents from behind in multiplayer matches. This requires a shift in mindset from traditional racing to aggressive, surgical disruption. Instead of rushing to sink your ball, you must stalk your rivals, wait for them to commit to their shots, and strike when their backs are turned.
Video Highlights:
- Cart as a Weapon: Learn how to use the golf cart to ram opponents and break their psychological rhythm.
- Laser Timing: Save your orbital laser for the exact moment an opponent is about to sink their final shot.
- Sabotage Mechanics: Use diagonal ball-on-ball collisions to push rivals off cliffs and into the rough.
- Terrain Cover: Utilize dense vegetation to break enemy lines of sight and set up stealthy ambushes.
The "Behind You!" achievement tracks knockouts across all public and private multiplayer matches. If you want to speed up the process, invite a group of friends to a private lobby on a small map to trade quick rear knockouts.
Step-by-Step Rear Knockout Farming Guide
Securing 250 rear knockouts can feel like an immense grind if you play passively. To optimize your farming route, you must exploit the moments when other players are most vulnerable. The absolute best time to strike is when an opponent is standing perfectly still, calibrating their shot angle and power.
Follow these structured steps to maximize your stealth knockout efficiency in every match:
Equip High-Impact Weapons
Prioritize picking up heavy weapons from loot boxes scattered across the course. The Elephant Gun, Rocket Launcher, and Dueling Pistol are ideal tools. These weapons allow you to maintain a safe distance while lining up a perfect shot directly at an opponent's back.
Stalk Aiming Opponents
Watch the player icons and wait for someone to halt near their ball. This pause indicates they are in aiming mode. Quickly maneuver yourself directly behind their character model. Do not rush; wait until they are fully committed to their power meter before pulling your trigger.
Execute Golf Cart Road Rage
The golf cart is not just a vehicle; it is a lethal battering ram. When driving, look for players lining up shots along the main fairway. Accelerate from behind them and execute a high-speed collision. This counts as a rear knockout and contributes to your Road Rage achievement progress simultaneously.
Utilize the Follow-Through Spin
When engaging in close-quarters combat on the green, use the follow-through spin of heavy clubs like the Rocket Driver. Stand immediately behind your target as they attempt to putt, swing your club, and let the physical collision knock them out of bounds.
| Weapon | Optimal Range | Rear Knockout Potential | Ammo/Usage | Tactical Advantage |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Elephant Gun | Long Range | High | Limited | High knockback, perfect for pushing players into water |
| Dueling Pistol | Mid Range | Medium | Moderate | High precision, lets you snipe standing targets easily |
| Rocket Launcher | Mid Range | High | Low | Massive splash damage, perfect for clustered groups |
| Golf Cart | Melee Range | Extreme | Infinite | Fast traversal, breaks player alignment instantly |
| Rocket Driver | Melee Range | Medium | Single Use | Spin collision catches players off guard on the green |
While you are busy lining up a stealth attack on an opponent, you are completely stationary and highly vulnerable to other players. Always check your surroundings or carry a Shield item to block incoming homing shots or orbital lasers.
Map Mastery & Foliage Ambush Spots
Super Battle Golf features 27 unique courses, each presenting distinct environmental hazards and terrain layouts. To unlock the super battle golf reaper outfit efficiently, you must treat the environment as your greatest ally. Dense vegetation, tall grass, and sand traps are not just obstacles; they are perfect cover systems.
By hiding in dense foliage, you completely break the line of sight of your opponents. This makes it impossible for them to target you with homing missiles or the dreaded orbital laser. Furthermore, ambushing players from the brush allows you to work toward the "Lying in Wait" achievement (which unlocks the Goblin Mask and Nightvision goggles) while securing your rear knockouts.
| Map Name | Foliage Density | Ambush Rating | Key Hazard | Best Strategy |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Gauntlet | Medium | ★★★★☆ | Narrow Ledges | Push players off cliffs from behind |
| Showdown | Low | ★★☆☆☆ | Open Fairways | Use high-speed golf cart rams |
| Frozen Fairway | Low | ★★★☆☆ | Ice Patches | Freeze opponents near water hazards |
| Attack on City | High | ★★★★★ | Vertical Ruins | Drop down from buildings for rear drops |
| Sand Temple | High | ★★★★☆ | Deep Sand | Ambush slowed players from tall grass |
Stealth Ambush Checklist:
- Locate a high-traffic choke point near the green
- Conceal your character completely inside dense foliage
- Equip a long-range weapon like the Elephant Gun or Dueling Pistol
- Wait for an opponent to stand still and begin aiming their shot
- Fire directly at their back to secure the stealth knockout
According to the Steam Achievement Cosmetics Guide, players can easily combine multiple combat achievements. Hiding in the foliage while securing your rear knockouts is the fastest way to build progress for both the Reaper set and the Goblin Mask.
Advanced Combat Physics & Power Management
Super Battle Golf is an action-driven brawler disguised as a golf game. To survive at a high level, you must abandon the slow, methodical approach of traditional golf. Real-time angle and power management are vital. If you stand still for more than three seconds to calibrate a shot, you become an easy target for an enemy rocket or orbital laser.
To maintain your offensive pressure, learn to calibrate your shot power and angle while on the move. When approaching your ball, pre-visualize your shot trajectory. The moment you reach the ball, execute the shot instantly. This rapid-fire playstyle keeps you mobile, making it incredibly difficult for rivals to position themselves behind you.
The Aggressive Chaser

- Tools: Golf Carts & Rockets
- Style: Ramming opponents from behind constantly to force errors.
The Patient Bush Camper
- Focus: Stealth & Sniping
- Tools: Foliage & Elephant Gun
- Style: Waiting in deep brush to pick off players as they approach the green.
The Tactical Saboteur
- Focus: Physics & Collisions

| Melee Item | Swing Speed | Push Force | Active Defense | Tactical Verdict |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Scythe | Fast | High | Medium | Excellent for sweeping players off the green |
| Stop Sign | Slow | Extreme | High | Best for heavy physical crowd control |
| Spoon | Very Fast | Low | Low | Quick disruption, low knockout potential |
| Wrench | Moderate | Medium | High | Balanced defensive tool for close encounters |
Remember that the scoring system rewards disruption just as much as speed. If you realize you cannot reach the hole first, pivot your strategy entirely to hunting the leader. Knocking them out from behind balances the leaderboard and secures your Reaper progression.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: Does knocking out bots count toward unlocking the super battle golf reaper outfit?
No. The Behind You! achievement specifically requires you to knock out real opponents in active multiplayer matches. Bot knockouts in offline practice modes do not contribute to your progression.
Q: What is considered a knockout 'from behind' in Super Battle Golf?
A rear knockout occurs when you deplete an opponent's health bar or push them into an out-of-bounds hazard by striking them from a 180-degree angle behind their character model's current facing direction.
Q: Can I use explosive items like landmines to get rear knockouts?
Yes, but it is highly inconsistent. If an opponent steps on a landmine while moving forward, the explosion source is technically underneath or slightly in front of them. It is highly recommended to use directional weapons like the Elephant Gun or physical golf cart rams to ensure the hit registers from behind.
Q: Does the Scythe club have different physical stats than a standard golf club?
All cosmetic clubs in Super Battle Golf share identical base swing speeds and ball-striking physics. However, the visual model and swing animation of the Scythe can make physical collisions with other players feel more distinct, helping you judge close-quarters melee ranges better.
