Guide
Overview
Penny is a long ranged sniper able to deal 1960 damage per hit, with her super being a turret doing 2400 and being meant to control area.
Main Attack
Penny's main attack shoots a shot that fires pretty far, doing 1960 damage on impact. Additionally, it will spread coins behind it if it hits, with the coins doing around 1300 damage to other brawlers. If a brawler gets hit with the shot, they cannot get hit with the coins. The biggest mistake Penny players make is unloading ammo onto single targets, but with her slow reload speed and low health, this is unlikely to be that good. Instead, you should conserve Penny's ammo for when enemies are in groups, maximizing her possible damage.
Super
Penny's super throws down a turret with 6800 hp and 2400 damage per hit. This turret has an incredibly high range and deals 2400 damage on landing. It will continue to do burn damage if an enemy stands in the blast area afterwards. When throwing Penny's turret, make sure to hide it behind a wall, since its immobility and low hp make it an easy target, and its long range make it viable if you hide it on your side of the map.
Gadget : Salty Barrel
Penny throws down a barrel with 2280 hp at near current location. Penny plays passively, so this gadget is meant to soak up incoming damage as a way to let Penny escape. It can also be used off her hits so she can spread her coins, but this rarely comes up.
Gears : The turret is the best part of her build, so pet power is a must, and you can use either shield or health to help her sustain her passive playstyle.
Star Power : Master Blaster.
Simply put, this star power is good because the other is bad, 1372 damage when the turret lands is bad, but giving her a wider coin range is worse, so master blaster it is. On a more positive note, you can use it semi-aggressively to take down low hp melee brawlers trying to close in on you. Although coin range is helpful, in such an aggressive meta, the master blaster is near necessary
Hypercharge :
Penny's turret now drops 2 bombs, meaning it can do 4800+ damage. This is just a better turret, but the difference is so big, protect it with your life. If you're playing a game and you get hypercharged, run to a safe location, like a bush or behind a wall, throw down your turret, and guard it with your life, because 4800 damage is just so broken from 10 tiles away.
Conclusion.
Penny is a passive sniper who uses their ammo to control crowds of enemies, so you are able to get her super.Her super is a long ranged turret capable of high damage, Her gadget protects her from aggro brawlers, and her star power is good because the other is worse. If you get her hypercharge, it is very powerful, and worth defending with your life. Gears of pet power and either shield or health help her turret stay strong and support her passive playstyle. Thanks for reading!
