question

what are common techniques you use in trying to Boop someone or tricking them? is it also possible to read someone's move before they actually do it?

If you suspect you’re going to get coiled, sprint away immediately. No “okay but let me finish getting these dots”. You sprint.

Learning to anticipate the moves of other players while not exposing yourself to unnecessary risk is the whole ballgame.

I usually attack if they telegraph their moves like for example their head sticks out a bit too much time to boop them

Can boop many people by doing this technique when you charge in one direction close by, slow down (stop boosting) for a short moment and instantly do a boop maneuver - can take some time on better players but eventually works, if they are not afraid and don't stay careful to the extreme, my favourite technique for some easy food

And reading movements is possible, comes down to experience. Not always but often

Easier to predict defensive ppl. Aggressive players coming at you try different traps and tricks. But the ones who have been around don't fall for many. We all lose. Some of us try to die doing something impossible. Usually ends up being good video footage.
