Best Sandy Build in Brawl Stars

Sandy's primary attack involves piercing sand bullets covering a wide area, though dealing minimal damage. His Super, Sandstorm, is where he truly shines. This ability summons a sandstorm lasting nine seconds, obscuring allies within its radius from enemy view—a game-changer for turning the tide of battle.

Sweet Dreams is the optimal gadget. It puts opponents to sleep for a second (though they wake upon taking damage). Use it strategically when fully loaded, near an enemy and your allies; this allows for a coordinated attack and quick elimination. The stun is even more effective if followed by an attack. Defensively, it provides precious escape time.

Rude Star, his best Star Power, enhances damage output within Sandstorm. Combined with the concealment, this allows your team to launch a simultaneous assault when surrounded by both allies and enemies. Remember, avoid using your Gadget while Sandstorm is active, as Rude Star's damage will automatically wake stunned opponents.

For Gears, Exhausting Storm (reducing enemy damage within the Sandstorm by 20%) and Damage (boosting Sandy's attack by 50% below half health) create a powerful synergy.

Best Sandy Teammates in Brawl Stars

Sandy, while powerful, is fragile. He needs protective teammates to cover his weaknesses. These are excellent choices:

• Jacky: Her drill pulls enemies close, setting up perfect Sandstorm traps. Stay near her for optimal synergy.
• Surge: Surge delivers massive damage with both regular and ultimate attacks, providing crucial offensive power.
• Gene: Like Jacky, Gene's pull ability brings enemies into Sandstorm's range, extending its effectiveness.

Other Tips

Position Sandstorm near bushes for easy escapes and ambush opportunities after the ability ends. Against another Sandy, counter their Super with your own; Rude Star's damage reveals enemy positions even through the concealment.

Mastering Sandy requires teamwork. While incredibly strong, coordinating with your team is key to victory.
