Best star power for Amber

52.0% of Amber's star power picks go to Scorchin Siphon. A brawler owns two star powers but fights with one, so the slot is a standing choice about how Amber plays rather than something you activate. Wild Flames trails behind at 48.0%.

Best gadget for Amber

52.0% of Amber players equip Fire Starters. A gadget has no cap on uses in a match, just a cooldown between them, so the choice comes down to which effect is worth reaching for again and again. Dancing Flames sees the rest of the picks at 48.0%.

Best gears for Amber

On gear, Amber players favor SHIELD (22.3%), with STICKY OIL (22.2%) close behind. Gears offer a smaller boost than a star power or gadget, so this is the fine-tuning slot of the build.

What players who own Amber have unlocked, counted from tracked profiles over the last 30 days. "Unlocked first" is the share among the players who own only one of a pair, which is the closest thing to a preference the game data exposes: Supercell never publishes which build a player equipped in a match, so nothing here is a pick rate or a win rate by build.

About Amber

Amber brings the heat, literally! She's overconfident about her fire abilities despite being a bit of a klutz. With her, it's spectacle first, and safety last.

The most popular Amber build runs Scorchin Siphon (52.0% pick rate) with Fire Starters (52.0%). The data puts Amber at S-tier, strongest in Brawl Hockey at 66.6%. Out of 108 rated brawlers, Amber sits at #4 right now. As a Controller, Amber is usually drafted to fill that role rather than as a flexible pick outside it. Draft Amber into Shelly (79.1%) and away from Cosmo (50.7%); on a team, it does its best work alongside Ash. Amber also performs well against Nita (73.5%) and Jacky (71.8%). Gus is a solid secondary pairing for Amber too, at 70.7% together. Amber is one of the strongest picks in the game right now, expect it to be contested or banned in ranked drafts. The star power choice is genuinely contested, Scorchin Siphon (52.0%) and Wild Flames (48.0%) both see serious play, usually split by mode. On Backyard Bowl specifically, Amber rises to 66.2%, its single strongest map in rotation.
