Meet Buzz, the Mythic Brawler
Buzz is classified as a Mythic Brawler, who originally could be unlocked as a Brawl Pass reward at Tier 30. Known for his high health, high damage output at close range, and impressive mobility, Buzz brings a unique blend of skills to the Brawl Stars arena. His short attack range is offset by his powerful Super and rapid movement speed, making him a formidable opponent in close encounters.
Diving into Buzz’s Abilities
Buzz’s gameplay centers around his ability to control the field with his Super, Torpedo Throw, which launches a buoy that can grapple onto walls or enemies. This ability not only pulls Buzz to the target but also stuns nearby enemies, with the stun duration increasing with the travel distance. Buzz’s first gadget, Reserve Buoy, fully charges his Super instantly, although it removes the stun effect. His second gadget, X-Ray-Shades, allows Buzz and his teammates to see enemies hiding in bushes within his Super charging area.
Star Powers and Hypercharge
Buzz’s strategic depth is further enhanced by his Star Powers:
- Tougher Torpedo: Increases the minimum stun duration of his Super.
- Eyes Sharp: Expands his Trait’s area, allowing for a broader range to charge his Super passively.
His Hypercharge, Buzzwatch, instantly recharges his Super upon hitting a wall, adding an extra layer of agility and surprise to his moves.
Since his release, Buzz has been part of several updates that have tweaked his abilities and introduced new skins like Director Buzz and the thematic Kaiju Buzz. His class transition from a Buzzassin to an Assassin and various health buffs have kept him competitive and exciting to play.
Buzz’s introduction to Brawl Stars has introduced a lifeguard who brings high tide to every fight. Whether he’s throwing his torpedo buoy or scanning for trouble with his X-Ray-Shades, Buzz continuously proves that he’s more than just a beachside watchman. He’s a pivotal force in the ever-dynamic battles of Brawl Stars.
