Mastering Buzz Lightyear in Brawl Stars: A Guide to His Unique Abilities and Best Game Modes

Brawl Stars' limited-time brawler, Buzz Lightyear, offers a unique gameplay experience with his three distinct combat modes. Available only until February 4th, players need to quickly learn how to maximize his potential before he's gone. This guide will help you unlock and master Buzz Lightyear's versatility.

How to Play Buzz Lightyear

Buzz Lightyear is a free unlock from the in-game shop, arriving maxed out 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, available across all three modes.

Buzz's three modes offer diverse combat styles:

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

Laser Mode excels at long-range engagements with its burn effect. Saber Mode thrives in close-quarters combat, utilizing its Tank Trait to charge its Super while taking damage. Wing Mode provides a balanced approach, effective at mid-range.

Which Game Mode is Best for Buzz Lightyear?

Buzz's adaptability makes him effective in various modes. Saber Mode shines in close-combat maps (Showdown, Gem Grab, Brawl Ball), especially against Throwers due to its Super's targeted landing. Laser Mode dominates open maps (Knockout, Bounty), using its burn effect to control opponents' healing. He's a strong contender in Trophy Events and Arcade Mode, even at low health. Note that Buzz Lightyear is unavailable in Ranked Mode.
