Gameplay and Matchups

Buzz’s bulkiness makes up for his low attack range. The main objective while playing Buzz should be to reach the squishy targets using his Super and eliminating them as quickly as possible. Using his Gadget will instantly fill his Super meter, which can be a great tactic to catch enemies off guard. However, Buzz’s attacking animation isn’t linear, and it might take some time adjusting to it.

One of the best ways to play aggressive on Buzz is by hiding in a bush and then instantly latching on targets using his Super. Buzz as brawler prevails in Solo Shodown, Duo Showdown, and Brawl Ball. Buzz thrives in matches with a lot of structures as he can latch onto them. However, he struggles against brawlers that can consistently deal damage from long range and avoid getting hooked by him.

  • Buzz is strong against: Sandy, Piper, Sprout, Ruff, and Mr. P
  • Buzz is weak against: Gale, Surge, Gene, Jacky, and El Primo
