Among Penny players, Heavy Coffers 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. Master Blaster is the alternative at 48.0%. The most common gadget is Salty Barrel at 51.0%. You fire it yourself and can keep using it all match, waiting out the cooldown each time, so players pick the effect they want on hand most often. Trusty Spyglass is the alternative at 49.0%. On gear, Penny players favor SHIELD (30.3%), with PET POWER (29.9%) close behind. Gears offer a smaller boost than a star power or gadget, so this is the fine-tuning slot of the build.

About Penny

Penny doesn't care about studying old maps or puzzling over sea shanty riddles. She's a pirate so she can blow stuff up and grab whatever she wants!

The most popular Penny build runs Heavy Coffers (52.0% pick rate) with Salty Barrel (51.0%). Penny grades out at C-tier this season, peaking in Bounty (53.3% win rate). Penny currently ranks #67 out of 106 rated brawlers in the overall meta. Penny is classed as an Artillery, so its kit generally leans into that role's usual strengths rather than flexing into others. Against Eve, Penny wins 63.2% of games, its most favorable matchup. Wendy is the counter to respect (25.7%), and Bo the teammate that lifts it most. Penny also performs well against Ollie (63.1%) and Gene (62.4%). Wendy is a solid secondary pairing for Penny too, at 71.7% together. The Wendy matchup is severe enough that Penny players should consider swapping when it appears on the enemy team. The star power choice is genuinely contested, Heavy Coffers (52.0%) and Master Blaster (48.0%) both see serious play, usually split by mode.
