Healing Winds is Sandy's most-picked star power at 51.0%. A star power comes into play with the Super, which you charge up by landing attacks and then fire when you choose. The other option, Rude Sands, sits at 49.0%. Sleep Stimulator is the gadget of choice at 61.0% pick rate. Unlike a star power, a gadget is triggered on its own rather than with the Super, and it can be used as often as you like once its cooldown is up. Sweet Dreams sees the rest of the picks at 39.0%. On gear, Sandy players favor SHIELD (27.5%), with EXHAUSTING STORM (26.5%) close behind. Gears offer a smaller boost than a star power or gadget, so this is the fine-tuning slot of the build.

About Sandy

On the rare occasions Sandy wakes from his slumber, he tries to help his big sister Tara around their store. But it's never long before he falls asleep again.

The most popular Sandy build runs Healing Winds (51.0% pick rate) with Sleep Stimulator (61.0%). Sandy grades out at C-tier this season, peaking in Brawl Ball (60.7% win rate). Out of 106 rated brawlers, Sandy sits at #79 right now. As a Controller, Sandy is usually drafted to fill that role rather than as a flexible pick outside it. Against Eve, Sandy wins 61.2% of games, its most favorable matchup. Wendy is the counter to respect (29.4%), and Wendy the teammate that lifts it most. Further down the list, Shelly (60.4%) and Brock (58.7%) are also favorable fights for Sandy. Bo is a solid secondary pairing for Sandy too, at 63.9% together. The Wendy matchup is severe enough that Sandy players should consider swapping when it appears on the enemy team. Sandy is unusually mode-dependent, the gap between its best and worst modes is over 10.6%, so where you play it matters more than usual. The star power choice is genuinely contested, Healing Winds (51.0%) and Rude Sands (49.0%) both see serious play, usually split by mode. Sandy is a rare sight at 0.4% use rate, win rates on low-sample brawlers move around more, so read its numbers with that in mind.
