All good to go and ready to buy Brawl Pass Plus? Then you’ll be able to earn some resources through the Brawl Pass to upgrade and even build some Brawlers in your roster. Brawl Stars Brawlers are what will help you win a match and it all depends on the type of build you have for them. Never settle for less when it comes to the kind of build you are using. Always go for the best build available.
One such Brawler that we will be focusing on Is Spike Brawl Stars. This cactus Brawler is a bit of a glass cannon. He has a high damage output but a rather low health to go with it. He’s a real heavy hitter that can deal major damage by himself, but what happens if you build him correctly? Here is the best Spike build for the pointy boy himself.
Best Spike Build
The best thing to do when building a Brawler is to understand how they work and what their base stats are like. As said before, Spike is a Brawler that has a very high damage output but low health. This makes him a glass cannon. Able to dish out damage but not take it very well. He’s got normal movement speed and a rather good Super that helps dish out damage without him even attacking.
This information about Brawl Stars Spike is crucial in building him. But we need a more accurate reading on his stats to fully determine what’s best for him. Here are his stats all at base value:
| Stats | Base Value |
| Movement Speed | 720 |
| Health | 2400 |
| Attack Range | 7.67 |
| Reload | 2 seconds |
| Super Charge per Hit | 14.31% |
| Attack Damage | 540 |
| Super Damage | 400 |
| Super Duration | 4.5 seconds |
| Projectile Speed | 1739 |
| Hypercharge Multiplier | 35% |
| Hypercharge Speed | +26% |
| Hypercharge Damage | +25% |
| Hypercharge Shield | +5% |
Gadget
Moving to the best Gadget possible for Spike. We have to remember that we need to play into Spike’s strengths when choosing the Gadget. Spike is a character that can’t take too much damage or else he’ll go down. But with the Life Plant Gadget, Spike will be able to summon another cactus that also has the same base health as him.
This new cactus will be able to tank damage for you and your teammates as you all do damage to the enemy team. Not only that, but it will also heal anyone in a 3.33 tile radius for 1440 health.
Star Power
Spike is a ranged fighter who’s projectiles go in a straight direction. But what if I tell you that it can hit more targets if it curves? His Star Power Curveball allows him to do just that. Equipping this Star Power allows him to curve his projectiles to hit more targets that are in front of him.
Gear
Seeing as how Spike is a rather squishy Brawler, we will need something to help keep him alive. The best Gear to use for Spike in this build is the Shield Gear. Spike gets a boost to his health of 900 health that acts as his shield. This gear also allows his shield regeneration to only be 10 seconds instead of the default time.
Game Modes
Spike’s got a new build and he is ready to go into the game to prick at his enemies. But which one of the many game modes in the game is Spike going to excel in? We’ve got 3 game modes that Spike is currently thriving in and has the highest win rates for his character. Those are:
- Paint Brawl
- Brawl Ball
- Wipeout
In Conclusion
Spike is a great Brawler if you want someone that’s a good Support with good damage. But his squishy nature tends to turn off a lot of players from him. You can instead check out other Brawlers like Kit Brawl Stars if you’re looking for something else.
