Best star power for Kaze

53.0% of Kaze's star power picks go to Gratuity Included. A brawler owns two star powers but fights with one, so the slot is a standing choice about how Kaze plays rather than something you activate. Advanced Techniques trails behind at 47.0%.

Best gadget for Kaze

Gracious Host is the gadget of choice at 53.0% pick rate. A gadget is the part of the loadout you press: unlike the passive star power, it fires on demand and can be used as often as you like once its cooldown is up. Hensojutsu is the alternative at 47.0%.

Best gears for Kaze

SHIELD leads the gear slot at 35.5%, with DAMAGE (34.3%) close behind. Gears add a smaller boost rather than a new effect, so this pick fine-tunes the build more than it redefines it.

What players who own Kaze 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 Kaze

Kaze was raised to be a living weapon by her parents, but this was not the life she wanted. After escaping to Starr Park with Kenji, she can now live how she wants. However, she is still torn between the two aspects of her life, being a humble geisha and a deadly ninja.

Gratuity Included is the star power of choice for Kaze at 53.0%, usually paired with Gracious Host (53.0%). Kaze grades out at B-tier this season, peaking in Brawl Hockey (61.8% win rate). Out of 108 rated brawlers, Kaze sits at #38 right now. On the class breakdown, Kaze falls in the Assassin bucket alongside the rest of that role's picks. The matchup spread runs from 75.7% against Shelly down to 42.3% into Damian. Bolt is the strongest recorded pairing. Further down the list, Barley (71.3%) and Jacky (70.1%) are also favorable fights for Kaze. Cosmo is another strong teammate for Kaze, winning 65.6% of games together. The star power choice is genuinely contested, Gratuity Included (53.0%) and Advanced Techniques (47.0%) both see serious play, usually split by mode. Kaze is a rare sight at 0.5% use rate, win rates on low-sample brawlers move around more, so read its numbers with that in mind. On Think Ahead specifically, Kaze rises to 64.7%, its single strongest map in rotation.
