Best Gale Build
Most picked build across all modesBest star power for Gale
54.0% of Gale's star power picks go to Blustery Blow. A brawler owns two star powers but fights with one, so the slot is a standing choice about how Gale plays rather than something you activate. Freezing Snow trails behind at 46.0%.
Best gadget for Gale
53.0% of Gale players equip Spring Ejector. 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. Twister is the alternative at 47.0%.
Best gears for Gale
On gear, Gale players favor SHIELD (36.6%), with DAMAGE (36.5%) 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 Gale have unlocked, counted from tracked profiles over the last 30 days.
