Sandy's attack consists of piercing sand bullets with wide coverage but low damage. His Super, Sandstorm, creates a nine-second area-of-effect that hides allies from enemy sight, significantly altering the battle's flow.

Gadget: Sweet Dreams allows you to briefly incapacitate opponents (one second), providing a crucial window for coordinated attacks with teammates. Use it strategically when fully loaded and near allies to maximize its impact. It's also effective defensively, buying you time to escape.

Star Power: Rude Star enhances Sandstorm by adding damage to enemies within its radius, complementing its concealment effect. Activate it when surrounded by both allies and enemies for a potent offensive maneuver. Note: Rude Star's damage negates the stun effect of Sweet Dreams.

Gears: Exhausting Storm reduces enemy damage within the Sandstorm by 20%, while Damage boosts Sandy's attack by 50% when his health falls below 50%. This combination balances defensive and offensive capabilities.

Sandy's fragility necessitates strong teammates to compensate for his low survivability. Here are top choices:

  • Jacky: Her ability to pull enemies closer creates ideal setups for Sandy's Sandstorm.
  • Surge: Provides substantial damage output, compensating for Sandy's lower damage.
  • Gene: Similar to Jacky, Gene's pull ability helps control enemy positioning within Sandstorm's range.

Additional Tips

  • Position Sandstorm strategically near bushes to facilitate escapes and ambushes.
  • Counter enemy Sandstorms with your own, using Rude Star's damage to reveal enemy positions.

Sandy's effectiveness relies heavily on teamwork. Mastering his build and coordinating with teammates is key to victory.
