Sandy's primary attack involves wide-area sand bullets, dealing minimal damage. His unique Super, Sandstorm, summons a nine-second sandstorm, hiding allies within its area of effect from enemy view—a game-changer in battle.

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

Rude Star, the best Star Power, adds damage to Sandstorm, complementing its hiding effect. Activate it when surrounded by allies and enemies for a simultaneous assault; avoid using your gadget while Sandstorm is active as Rude Star removes enemy stuns.

For Gears, Exhausting Storm debuffs enemies within Sandstorm (20% less damage), while Damage boosts Sandy's attack by 50% below half health.

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

  • Jacky: Her drill pulls enemies close, setting up perfect Sandstorm traps.
  • Surge: A high-damage dealer, compensating for Sandy's lower damage output.
  • Gene: His pull ability brings enemies into Sandstorm's range.

Other Tips

Position Sandstorm near bushes for easy escapes and ambush opportunities. Counter enemy Sandstorms with your own, using Rude Star's damage to reveal enemy positions.

Mastering Sandy requires teamwork. While powerful, strategic cooperation ensures victory.
