Among Pierce players, Mission Swimpossible leads the star power slot at 50.0%. 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, Slip N Snipe, sits at 50.0%. The most common gadget is Bottomless Mags 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. You Only Brawl Twice is the alternative at 49.0%. For gear, DAMAGE is the top pick at 39.4%, with SHIELD (38.0%) close behind. A gear only adds a smaller stat boost on top of the kit, so it is more of a fine-tuning choice than a build-defining one.

About Pierce

You know pool lifeguards? Pierce is one of those. Except he shoots people instead of saving them. OK maybe he isn't like a lifeguard at all. When Buzz decides there has been too much pee in the pool, he calls in Pierce to 'clean up'.

The standard Pierce setup is Mission Swimpossible plus Bottomless Mags, the combination running in roughly 50.0% of builds. In the current meta Pierce rates A-tier; Wipeout is where it performs best, winning 63.2% of games. Out of 106 rated brawlers, Pierce sits at #13 right now. Pierce is classed as a Marksman, so its kit generally leans into that role's usual strengths rather than flexing into others. Its best matchup is Shelly (74.9% win rate against), while Wendy is the pick that shuts it down hardest (36.3%). Ash is its most effective teammate. Beyond its best matchup, Pierce holds up against Nita (71.2%) and Jacky (70.8%) too. Wendy is another strong teammate for Pierce, winning 71.8% of games together. The star power choice is genuinely contested, Mission Swimpossible (50.0%) and Slip N Snipe (50.0%) both see serious play, usually split by mode. On Healthy Middle Ground specifically, Pierce climbs to 73.2%, its single strongest map in rotation.
