Mastering Buzz Lightyear in Brawl Stars: A Comprehensive Guide

Brawl Stars' limited-time brawler, Buzz Lightyear, offers unique gameplay with three distinct combat modes. This guide details how to play Buzz effectively and which modes are best suited for different game scenarios. He's only available until February 4th, so make the most of it!

How to Play Buzz Lightyear

Buzz Lightyear is a free unlock from the in-game shop, arriving at Power Level 11 with his Gadget already unlocked. He lacks Star Powers and Gears, but his Turbo Boosters Gadget allows for quick dashes, ideal for both offense and escape. His Bravado Hypercharge temporarily boosts his stats. These abilities are consistent across all three modes.

Buzz's three modes offer diverse combat styles:

Laser Mode Health: 6000, Movement Speed: Normal, Range: Long, Reload Speed: Fast 2160 5 x 1000

Wing Mode Health: 7200, Movement Speed: Very Fast, Range: Normal, Reload Speed: Normal 2 x 2000 -
