Sandy's attack, while dealing minimal damage, covers a wide area with piercing sand bullets. His Sandstorm Super (9-second duration) hides allies within its radius, making him invaluable for turning the tide of battle.

  • Sweet Dreams Gadget: This gadget puts opponents to sleep (1 second), waking them only upon taking damage. Use it strategically with full ammo near allies for coordinated attacks. It's also effective defensively, buying you escape time.

  • Rude Star Star Power: Increases Sandstorm's damage while providing the hiding effect. Activate when surrounded by allies and enemies for a powerful team assault. Note: Rude Star's damage-over-time effect negates the Sweet Dreams stun.

  • Exhausting Storm & Damage Gears: Exhausting Storm reduces enemy damage within the Sandstorm by 20%, while Damage boosts Sandy's attack by 50% below half health.

Sandy's fragility necessitates strong protective teammates. Here are top choices:

  • Jacky: Her ability to pull enemies close creates perfect Sandstorm setups.

  • Surge: Provides significant damage output, compensating for Sandy's lower damage.

  • Gene: Similar to Jacky, Gene's pull ability helps control enemy positioning within the Sandstorm.

Additional Tips

  • Position Sandstorm near bushes for easy escapes and ambush opportunities.

  • Counter enemy Sandstorms with your own, leveraging Rude Star's damage-over-time to reveal enemy positions.

Sandy's strength lies in teamwork. Mastering his build and synergizing with supportive Brawlers will unlock his full potential.
