Guide
Buster is a mid-range brawler whose real strength is the shield that protects allies. He pokes with light beams normally, while serving as a dependable wall that blocks danger for allies. His high health suits guarding the team from the front.
His Super forms a shield in front of him that blocks and reflects enemy attacks. With allies standing behind it, he can block the enemy's whole firepower, taking charge of the team's survival in a fight. It is strong for blocking a sniper's sightline or safely controlling an objective.
Use the Utility Belt or Slo-Mo Replay gadgets to add a slow or support as needed, while the star power is a choice between Blockbuster to strengthen the shield or Kevlar Vest to hold behind it. His shield role shines most on Gem Grab and Heist maps where he guards allies.
