Brawl Stars: Buzz Lightyear Guide & Best Modes

Mastering Buzz Lightyear in Brawl Stars: A Comprehensive Guide

Brawl Stars' newest brawler, Buzz Lightyear, is a limited-time addition available only until February 4th. This unique character offers three distinct combat modes, making him surprisingly versatile across various game types. Let's explore how to 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 Power and Gears, but his single Gadget, Turbo Boosters, allows for quick dashes, ideal for closing in on opponents or escaping danger. His Hypercharge, Bravado, temporarily boosts his stats. These abilities are consistent across all three modes.

Buzz's three modes, their stats, and damage outputs are detailed below:

Mode	Image	Stats	Attack Damage	Super Damage
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 allowing precise targeting, especially effective against Throwers. Wing Mode offers a balanced approach, best used at closer ranges.

Optimal Game Modes for Buzz Lightyear
