Sandy's primary attack fires piercing sand bullets, covering a wide area but dealing minimal damage. His unique Super, Sandstorm, summons a nine-second sandstorm, concealing allies within its radius and making him invaluable for turning the tide of battle.

Sweet Dreams is Sandy's optimal gadget, putting opponents to sleep for one second (interrupted by damage). Use it with full ammo near allies for coordinated takedowns. It's also effective defensively, buying you escape time.

Rude Star, his best Star Power, adds damage to his Sandstorm, complementing its concealment. Activate it when surrounded by allies and enemies for a powerful team assault. Note: Rude Star's stun removal negates the need for Sweet Dreams during Sandstorm.

For Gears, Exhausting Storm (20% damage reduction for enemies in the Sandstorm) and Damage (50% attack buff below half health) create a potent combination.

Sandy, while powerful, is fragile. Teammates who protect him and cover his weaknesses are crucial. Top choices include:

  • Jacky: Her drill pulls enemies in, setting up perfect Sandstorm traps.
  • Surge: Provides massive damage output with both regular attacks and his ultimate.
  • Gene: Like Jacky, he pulls enemies closer, extending Sandstorm's reach.

Other Tips

Position Sandstorm near bushes for easy escapes and ambush opportunities. Counter enemy Sandstorms with your own, using Rude Star's damage-over-time to locate opponents.

Mastering Sandy requires teamwork. While he’s exceptionally strong, coordinated play is key to victory.

Brawl Stars is available on iOS and Android.
