Slayers 2 Cup Training: Location and How to Follow the Ball
Cup Training in Slayers 2 (formerly Project Slayers 2) is a memory exercise at Butterfly Estate. Watch which cup covers the ball, follow that cup as the cups shuffle, then select it once the movement stops. Start the exercise when Cup Training is the active step in your breathing quest; the required order depends on your style.

Where is Cup Training?
Go into the main Butterfly Estate training building, also called Butterfly Mansion in trainer walkthroughs. The cup activity is in the room next to the meditation exercise. Follow the active training marker and inspect the station before starting.
For Thunder Breathing, Cup Training follows Meditate. In the Insect route it follows Aim Training. Read your own quest tracker so you complete the exercise required by your current style.
How to beat the cup minigame
- Identify the cup covering the ball before the shuffle begins.
- Keep your attention on that one cup throughout the movement. Use your cursor to follow it if that makes the swaps easier to track.
- Wait until the cups stop moving before choosing.
- Select the cup you tracked and repeat for the remaining rounds shown by the activity.
- After the exercise ends, confirm that Cup Training is marked complete in the breathing quest before leaving.
What to change when you keep losing the ball
| What you see | What to do |
|---|---|
| You remember the starting position but lose the cup | Track the moving cup itself; its starting left, middle or right position changes during the shuffle. |
| You try to watch every cup at once | Choose the ball-bearing cup before the movement and follow only that one. |
| The station does not advance your quest | Check the earlier prerequisite row and make sure Cup Training is the active objective. |
| You finish cups but still have no breathing moves | Continue the remaining exercises and the style's trainee fight. |
Which exercise comes after cups?
Thunder training continues with Push ups, Aim Training, Boulder Split and the Thunder Trainee. Insect continues from cups to Push ups, Boulder Split and the Insect Trainee.
Use the trainer walkthrough for the complete sequence. Cup Training completes one objective in that route; it does not spend skill points or unlock every move in the style.
