Colette | Best Build

Colette Play Guide (with “Push It” Star Power and “Na-ah!” Gadget)Colette excels at controlling high-health Brawlers while maintaining a strong presence in the fight. Here’s an optimal guide for playing her with the chosen build:Early Game (Start of the Match)Objectives: • Poke with your main attack: Colette’s basic attack, “Tax Return,” deals a percentage of the enemy’s health. This makes her especially effective at dealing damage to tanks or high-health Brawlers like Frank, Bull, or El Primo.
• Positioning: Stay behind walls or cover while firing shots. Since Colette relies on hitting enemies to charge her Super and deal damage, always be in a position where you can hit and retreat.
• Chip damage: Focus on softening up enemies, especially tanks, as her attacks are not too effective against low-health Brawlers early on.Mid-Game (Charging Super and Using Gadget)Using “Push It” Star Power: • Engage when your Super is charged: Colette’s Super, “Time to Collect,” lets her dash through multiple enemies. With “Push It,” you can knock enemies back all the way to the end of your dash. Use this to displace tanks or crowd-control clusters of enemies.
• Super for control, not just damage: Since “Push It” knocks enemies back, you can split enemy teams, push Brawlers away from key objectives, or even knock them into a wall for an easy follow-up attack. Don’t be afraid to use it defensively if enemies are getting too close to your team.Using the “Na-ah!” Gadget: • Activate the gadget when in danger: If you’re about to engage in a close fight or are being targeted, activate Colette’s gadget to reduce the incoming damage by 50%. This can swing close fights in your favor, especially if you’re dueling high-damage Brawlers like Colt or Shelly.
• Use on high-damage opponents: This gadget is highly effective against burst damage Brawlers like Surge, Nani, or Edgar. If you see them coming toward you, activating “Na-ah!” can negate their ability to quickly take you down, giving you the upper hand.Late Game (Closing Out Matches)General Strategy: • Displace enemies with your Super: In the late game, particularly in modes like Gem Grab or Bounty, your Super can help you push enemies away from the objective or their teammates. Use “Push It” to knock Brawlers out of position, leaving them vulnerable for your teammates to finish off.
• Focus on tank counters: Tanks become more aggressive in late game, trying to secure objectives. Use your attacks and Super to keep them at bay, effectively controlling their presence on the battlefield.Gear Usage: • Speed Gear: Use the Speed Gear to dodge enemy attacks, reposition quickly, and chase down enemies that are low on health. This extra mobility can help you stay safe from faster Brawlers like Max or Leon.
• Damage Gear: If you’re low on health, the extra damage from the Damage Gear can give you the edge in finishing off enemies. Play more aggressively in these situations, as your increased damage will help you win tight battles.
