Among Max players, Run N Gun leads the star power slot at 52.0%. It takes effect when the Super goes off, so how often you charge that Super decides how much the pick is worth. The other option, Super Charged, sits at 48.0%. 56.0% of Max players equip Sneaky Sneakers. 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. Phase Shifter sees the rest of the picks at 44.0%. On gear, Max players favor SHIELD (39.1%), with DAMAGE (32.7%) close behind. Gears offer a smaller boost than a star power or gadget, so this is the fine-tuning slot of the build.

About Max

Fuelled by energy drinks, Max speeds to the scene whenever someone needs help. She never sticks around long enough to do much... but she sure is fast!

For gear and gadget choices, the field has settled on Run N Gun (52.0%) and Sneaky Sneakers (56.0%) as Max's default build. Max currently sits at B-tier, with its strongest results coming in Brawl Ball 5v5 at a 57.2% win rate. Out of 106 rated brawlers, Max sits at #52 right now. Max is classed as a Support, so its kit generally leans into that role's usual strengths rather than flexing into others. Max preys on Shelly, winning 62.1% of those encounters, but struggles into Wendy at just 31.1%. It pairs best with Wendy. Further down the list, Nita (60.1%) and Eve (59.5%) are also favorable fights for Max. On a team, Max also pairs well with Bo (65.6% together). The Wendy matchup is severe enough that Max players should consider swapping when it appears on the enemy team. The star power choice is genuinely contested, Run N Gun (52.0%) and Super Charged (48.0%) both see serious play, usually split by mode.
