GENE BEST BUILD

Gene possesses standard movement speed, moderate health, and average damage output. His Super enables him to draw enemies towards him, regardless of whether they are concealed behind obstacles or walls, eliminating them in the process. With his initial Star Power, Gene provides healing to nearby allies, mending them for 576 health points. Utilizing the second Star Power, Gene inflicts 1000 damage with his Super ability. His primary gadget repels adversaries and replenishes 10% of Gene's maximum health, whereas the secondary gadget launches rockets at nearby foes, dealing 1600 damage.

Magic Puffs stands out as one of the top-tier Star Powers in the game, transforming Gene into an exceptional Support character with remarkable versatility. Its healing capability proves particularly potent, especially in passive game modes. The Lamp Blowout Gadget emerges as the safer choice for Gene players, as it compensates for his lack of damage and vulnerability against aggressive opponents. It becomes indispensable when confronting short-range and mid-range Brawlers, and in Gem Grab matches where Gene often assumes the role of gem carrier. In terms of gears, the Talk to the Hand gear shines across all game modes due to Gene's reliance on his Super, with the range boost offering a significant advantage. As a secondary option, the Health Gear proves to be the most effective, allowing Gene to apply pressure on enemies and facilitate easier healing.

All enemies close to Gene are instantly pushed back. If at least one enemy Brawler is within range, Gene will also restore 10% of his max health.

HEALTHHeal Gear

GENE SECOND BUILD

Gene's Star Power, Spirit Slap, presents an intriguing option against high-HP opponents, although it doesn't quite match the strength of his other Star Power. This is because Gene's successful pulls often result in eliminations even without the Star Power's boost. However, Spirit Slap can catch enemies off guard, as they may underestimate Gene's damage potential and not anticipate a hefty 2000 hit. The Gadget, Vengeful Spirits, proves highly effective in passive game modes and particularly shines in Knockout, especially when facing less aggressive opponents. Its surprising nature can easily secure eliminations due to its extensive range. In bushy maps, opting for the Vision Gear over the Health Gear is essential, as Gene's primary attack covers a wide area and includes numerous projectiles capable of hitting enemies.

VENGEFUL SPIRITSGene Gadget 02

Gene shoots a homing missile at all visible enemies within a large area, dealing up to 1600 damage based on distance.

A precise guide for attack, super, hypercharge, gadgets, and star power:

ATTACK

Gene fires a smoke ball at medium range, inflicting 2000 damage upon impact. If the ball misses its target, it disperses into a cone of 6 smaller smoke balls, each dealing 333 damage. The range of these smaller smoke balls is among the most extensive in the game, covering a large area. This characteristic makes Gene a formidable opponent, capable of disrupting enemy healing efforts effectively. While Gene's individual damage output may not be high, his persistent harassment due to his range can be quite frustrating for adversaries.

SUPER

Gene summons a mystical hand from his lamp, capable of traversing through walls. Upon making contact with an enemy (Brawler or pet), the hand grabs and pulls them towards Gene, demolishing any intervening walls on its return journey. Utilizing this ability, Gene can draw enemies closer to him, facilitating easy elimination by allied teammates before they can react. It's advisable to refrain from using this ability when alone unless the target is severely weakened. Additionally, Gene should retreat strategically to prevent enemy reinforcements from aiding their teammate. This tactic can be a game-changer in Knockout mode, particularly when paired with the Talk to the Hand gear.

HYPER HANDS

Джин Hypercharge

Gene's Super divides into three distinct hands, each capable of seizing an opponent. Additionally, he gains a 25% increase in speed, a 20% boost in damage, and a 25% enhancement in shield strength.

LAMP BLOWOUTGene Gadget 01

Upon activation, all enemies within a small radius around Gene are immediately pushed backward, while Gene regains 10% of his HP (720 HP) if an enemy was indeed pushed back. This Gadget proves effective against aggressive Brawlers; activating it can deter their advances, granting Gene the advantage. Additionally, it can be used to interrupt enemy abilities, such as Carl's Super or Frank's attacks.

VENGEFUL SPIRITSGene Gadget 02

Gene launches a spirit for each enemy within the Gadget's extensive range, which automatically tracks and strikes them unless obstructed by a wall. The damage inflicted by the spirit varies based on the distance traveled, ranging from 460 (at close range) to 1600 (at maximum range). This Gadget is highly effective for eliminating weakened enemies due to its impressive range, catching them off guard as they may not anticipate its reach. Similar to his other Gadget, you can preview its range by holding down the button without releasing it, allowing you to identify which enemies are within range.

MAGIC PUFFSGene Star Power 01

In a small radius around Gene, all allies receive a continuous healing of 576 HP per second. This Star Power proves exceptionally beneficial in 3v3 modes, allowing teammates to sustain themselves by continuously attacking while staying within Gene's healing radius. It's particularly effective against various types of poison effects. When utilizing this Star Power, it's crucial to remain vigilant of your allies' health statuses and to position yourself closely to them to maximize the healing effect and support their lane control.

SPIRIT SLAPGene Star Power 02

Gene's mystical hand inflicts 2000 damage upon striking an enemy. This Star Power proves highly effective against high-HP brawlers who are not easily defeated by the grab, as well as in one-on-one encounters, where Gene's own damage output is relatively low.


Gene BRAWL STARS PRO TIPS:

SCORE A GOAL WITH THE GADGET LAMP BLOWOUT

If adversaries stand between you and the enemy goal, shoot the ball forward to score and immediately activate your Gadget. This action will push enemies back, preventing them from thwarting the goal.

SCORE A GOAL WITH YOUR SUPER

When you possess the ball and are near the enemy goal, shoot the ball and activate your Super with auto-aim. Your hand will seize the enemy, leaving them unable to defend. Timing is crucial; don't hesitate to aim your Super. This tactic also applies when there's a wall between you and the enemy.

USE SUPER ON A MULTIPLE PROJECTILES BRAWLER AT CLOSE RANGE

In a one-on-one encounter with a Brawler who unleashes multiple projectiles per attack (like Colt, Pearl, Pam, etc.), at close quarters, you can wait for the enemy to begin firing and then immediately use your Super on them. This interrupts their attack midway, minimizing the damage you take while depleting their ammo. This tactic increases your odds of winning the duel. It's especially effective when the enemy has their Super or Hypercharge ready, as it halts their activation.

USE YOUR SUPER TO RESET ENEMIES SUPERS

Gene's Super has the ability to reset the Super of many Brawlers (such as Frank, Max, etc.). Utilize it to nullify an opponent's Super, significantly impacting the outcome of the battle. Additionally, you can use it to negate the damage from Bull's Super, rendering him highly susceptible in a 3v3 scenario.
