Mastering Buzz Lightyear in Brawl Stars: A Comprehensive Guide
Brawl Stars' limited-time brawler, Buzz Lightyear, offers unique gameplay with three selectable combat modes. This guide details how to play Buzz effectively and which modes excel in different game scenarios. He's available only until February 4th, so maximize your time with this exciting addition!
How to Play Buzz Lightyear
Buzz Lightyear is a free unlock from the in-game shop, arriving at Power Level 11 with his Gadget already unlocked. He lacks Star Power and Gears, but his single Gadget, Turbo Boosters, enables a crucial dash for engaging or escaping. His Hypercharge, Bravado, temporarily enhances his stats. These abilities are consistent across all three modes.
Buzz's three modes offer diverse gameplay:
Mode | Image | Stats | Attack | Super |
---|---|---|---|---|
Laser Mode | Health: 6000, Movement Speed: Normal, Range: Long, Reload Speed: Fast | 2160 | 5 x 1000 | |
Saber Mode | Health: 8400, Movement Speed: Very Fast, Range: Short, Reload Speed: Normal | 2400 | 1920 | |
Wing Mode | Health: 7200, Movement Speed: Very Fast, Range: Normal, Reload Speed: Normal | 2 x 2000 | - |
Laser Mode excels at long-range combat with its burn effect. Saber Mode thrives in close quarters, functioning similarly to Bibi's attacks and utilizing the Tank Trait. Wing Mode provides a balanced approach, best used at closer ranges.
Optimal Game Modes for Buzz Lightyear
Buzz's versatility shines across various game modes. Saber Mode is ideal for maps with confined spaces (Showdown, Gem Grab, Brawl Ball), especially against Throwers due to its Super's targeted landing. Laser Mode dominates open maps (Knockout, Bounty) using its burn effect to hinder opponent healing. Even with low health, his aggressive potential makes him valuable in Trophy Events or Arcade Mode. Note that Buzz is absent from Ranked Mode.
