Guide

Gus is a support-style dealer who throws balloons, and gathers the ghosts that appear after several hits to heal allies. With attack and support combined, he suits holding a lane while keeping allies alive. The core is steady mid-range pressure while stacking ghosts.

His Super creates a balloon shield around himself or an ally that pushes nearby enemies away while protecting. Cast on an endangered key ally to keep them alive, or to peel a diving enemy and stabilize a fight. Shield timing decides the team's survival.

Use the gadgets to instantly heal or make ghosts as needed, while the Side Kick star power strengthens his shield to grow his support role. He is valuable in 3v3 modes like Gem Grab, Hot Zone, and Knockout where he fights alongside allies.
