Brawl Stars: Buzz Lightyear Guide & Best Modes

Mastering Buzz Lightyear in Brawl Stars: A Comprehensive Guide

Brawl Stars' limited-time brawler, Buzz Lightyear, offers a unique gameplay experience with his three distinct combat modes. Available only until February 4th, this guide will help you maximize his potential before he's gone.

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 single Gadget, Turbo Boosters, allows for quick dashes – perfect for closing in on enemies or escaping danger. His Hypercharge, Bravado, temporarily boosts his stats. Both Gadget and Hypercharge function across all three modes. Here's a breakdown of each mode's stats:

Mode	Image	Stats	Attack	Super
Laser Mode		Health: 6000, Movement Speed: Normal, Range: Long, Reload Speed: Fast	2160	5 x 1000
Saber Mode		Health: 8400, Movement Speed: Very Fast, Range: Short, Reload Speed: Normal	2400	1920
Wing Mode		Health: 7200, Movement Speed: Very Fast, Range: Normal, Reload Speed: Normal	2 x 2000	-

Laser Mode excels at long-range combat, its burn effect hindering enemy healing. Saber Mode thrives in close quarters, its Super enabling precise landings and effectiveness against Throwers. Wing Mode provides a balanced approach, best utilized at closer ranges.
