Blackbelt pinball rules and strategy
The Strategy
Complete either B-L-A-C-K or B-E-L-T to advance Red Special, then hit a lit Ippon target. Hit all seven Dan positions on the center wheel to light Orange Special and collect it at the center target. Use the four upper KATA lanes for KATA Special, and repeat Yoko Geri on the upper right for a higher bonus multiplier.
The goal
Choose the safest visible route: a moving target bank into a lit Ippon target, all seven Dan positions into the wheel's center target, or the upper KATA lanes into the lit KATA lane. Use Yoko Geri when the multiplier route is safer than the targets.
Complete either five-target B-L-A-C-K or B-E-L-T bank to advance Red Special, then hit the lit left or right Ippon target.
Hit every Dan position on the center target wheel; when Orange Special is lit, hit the wheel's center target to collect it.
Use the four upper KATA lanes to advance KATA Special, then send the ball through the lit upper-left KATA lane.
Repeat the upper-right Yoko Geri lane to advance the bonus multiplier.
