Screenshot by The EscapistSandy's attack consists of piercing sand bullets, covering a wide area but dealing minimal damage individually. His Super, Sandstorm, is where his true strength lies. This nine-second sandstorm obscures allies from enemy vision, creating tactical advantages.
Equipment | Option |

Gadget | Sweet Dreams |
Star Power | Rude Star |
Gear 1 | Exhausting Storm |
Gear 2 | Damage |
Sweet Dreams Gadget: This gadget puts opponents to sleep for one second (interrupted by damage). Use it when fully loaded, near allies, and close to an enemy for a coordinated attack. It can also be used defensively to buy escape time.
Rude Star Star Power: This enhances Sandstorm by dealing damage to enemies within its radius. Activate it when surrounded by both allies and enemies for a powerful team assault. Note: The stun effect is removed if Rude Star is active, so avoid using Sweet Dreams simultaneously.
Exhausting Storm & Damage Gears: Exhausting Storm reduces enemy damage within the Sandstorm by 20%, while Damage boosts Sandy's attack by 50% below half health.

- Jacky: Her ability to pull enemies close perfectly complements Sandy's Sandstorm, creating effective traps.
- Surge: A high-damage dealer who offsets Sandy's low damage output. While slow, his consistent damage is invaluable.
- Gene: Similar to Jacky, Gene can pull enemies into the Sandstorm's range, extending its effectiveness.
