Optimal Sandy Build

Sandy's attack involves piercing sand bullets covering a wide area, albeit with low damage. His Super, Sandstorm, is where his true strength lies. This nine-second sandstorm obscures allies from enemy sight, creating tactical advantages.

Equipment	Option
Gadget	Sweet Dreams
Star Power	Rude Star
Gear 1	Exhausting Storm
Gear 2	Damage

Gadget: Sweet Dreams – This gadget puts opponents to sleep for a second (interrupted by damage). Use it strategically with full ammo, near allies, to coordinate a quick takedown. It's also effective defensively, buying time to escape.

Star Power: Rude Star – This enhances Sandstorm by adding damage to enemies within its radius. Activate it when surrounded by both allies and enemies for a coordinated offensive. Note: Rude Star's damage negates the Sweet Dreams stun.

Gears: Exhausting Storm & Damage – Exhausting Storm reduces enemy damage within the Sandstorm by 20%, while Damage boosts Sandy's attack by 50% below half health.

Ideal Sandy Teammates

Sandy's fragility necessitates protective teammates. Here are excellent choices:

• Jacky: Her ability to pull enemies closer perfectly complements Sandy's Sandstorm, creating effective traps.
• Surge: Surge provides substantial damage output, compensating for Sandy's lower damage.
• Gene: Similar to Jacky, Gene's pull ability helps control enemy positioning within Sandy's Sandstorm.

Advanced Strategies

Position your Sandstorm near bushes to allow for quick escapes and ambushes. Against another Sandy, counter their Sandstorm with your own, using Rude Star's damage to reveal enemy positions.

Sandy's power hinges on teamwork. Effective coordination with your team is crucial for victory.
