Guide
About This Brawler:
Buzz is a mythic assassin with a short main attack, but a versatile super and a lot of health. Buzz is most commonly used in Solo Showdown, but also can be used in a lot of game modes where the map features a lot of walls and/or bushes.Main Attack:
Buzz's main attack at power 11 does 4200 damage in total per one ammunition, but one shot takes 0.9 seconds to fully unload so his DPS isn't the highest for assassins. But, despite short range, with a fast reload speed Buzz counters a lot of brawlers(more on that later). Super(and Hypercharge):
Buzz's super is a long distance attack that pulls himself to any brawler, and then stuns the brawler for a specific timeframe depending on super distance. Buzz's super can also attach to walls allowing Buzz to cover a lot of distance in a short amount of time. Often times, Buzz's super is a great way to launch a surprise attack and quickly defeat low health brawlers or any brawler countered by Buzz. Buzz's super also charges when opposing brawlers are in a ring around his body. His Hypercharge allows him to use his super again if he hits a wall the first time.Strategy and Mechanics:
Buzz is best for surprise attacks and burst damage. The best strategy for Buzz in almost every game mode is charge up super, and then attack. That is why on every map except extremely bushy ones, you should play the Reserve Buoy gadget. Once you get Buzz's super it is important to pick brawlers that don't counter Buzz(some counters are Edgar, Shelly, Bull, Surge. Basically any brawler that can either do more DPS at close range or push Buzz back). Also generally look for isolated targets to avoid surprise attacks(especially in showdown). Also a lot of people misuse the Buzz super and instant super charge gadget. Oftentimes, Buzz's instantly charge their super with the gadget but this often causes opponents to avoid you and play more cautious. It's better to see if you can charge up you super naturally(for stun ability) because then you can use one of the most important Buzz mechanics. If you get Buzz's super naturally(not gadget) you can use the first super onto a wall closer to the nearest attackable brawler, and then instantly gadget and super onto that brawler. This allows you to surprise attack a lot of brawlers and close space quickly. That is why the Eyes Sharp star power is typically better. Sometimes though, you can just super once if the brawler is exposed but often avoid taking dumb super shots. Rinsing and repeating this over and over in many game modes will bring easier wins.Cavern Churn:
This is Buzz's best map and it's due to the huge bush in the center. It's best to just rush middle and use the other gadget to see the other brawlers in the bush. Basically, you can just play normal Brawl Stars while everyone is playing with a blindfold. Works Well With:
Buzz is best when he is accompanied by a long range brawler that can either heal him during attacks or help him by doing extra damage. Generally look for pairing him with long-range support, damage dealer or assassin brawlers. Extra Information:
