Mastering Buzz Lightyear in Brawl Stars: A Comprehensive Guide
Brawl Stars' limited-time brawler, Buzz Lightyear, offers a unique gameplay experience with three distinct combat modes. This guide covers how to play Buzz effectively and which game modes best suit his abilities. He's available until February 4th, so make the most of this exciting addition!
How to Play Buzz Lightyear
Buzz Lightyear is a free unlock from the in-game Shop, already maxed at Power Level 11 with his Gadget unlocked. He lacks Star Power and Gears, but his single Gadget, Turbo Boosters, allows for quick dashes, ideal for closing in on enemies or escaping danger. His Hypercharge, Bravado, temporarily boosts his stats. Both Gadget and Hypercharge function across all three modes.
Buzz's three modes, their stats, and damage outputs are detailed below:
| Mode | Image | Stats | Attack Damage | Super Damage |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Laser Mode |  |
Health: 6000, Movement: Normal, Range: Long, Reload: Fast | 2160 | 5 x 1000 |
| Saber Mode |  |
Health: 8400, Movement: Very Fast, Range: Short, Reload: Normal | 2400 | 1920 |
| Wing Mode |  |
Health: 7200, Movement: Very Fast, Range: Normal, Reload: Normal | 2 x 2000 | - |
Laser Mode excels at long-range combat with a burn effect. Saber Mode is a close-range powerhouse, gaining Super charge from damage taken. Wing Mode provides a balanced approach, best at mid-range.
Best Game Modes for Buzz Lightyear
Buzz's versatility makes him effective across multiple modes. Saber Mode shines in close-quarters maps (Showdown, Gem Grab, Brawl Ball), its Super allowing precise landings.
