The best way to play Clancy in Brawl Stars

The vast roster of Brawlers in Brawl Stars offer plenty of different archetypes for you to explore. Some play more passively, preferring a strong defense and longevity, while others, like Clancy, are focused simply on causing as much mayhem as possible.

This guide will take you through everything you need to know about this Mythic Brawler, from his attacks and build options to the modes he thrives in the most.

Not much is known about Clancy in the Brawl Stars universe. He's extremely loyal to his friends and has an association with Hank, another undersea-dwelling Brawler.

His backstory simply reads: "There's no turning back with Clancy (unless Hank orders him to).” Despite being rumored to not be a crustacean himself, he's fully embraced his fake crustacean life and will do anything for his comrades.

This crabby Brawler is unique in that he collects unique Tokens while damaging his opponents. These Tokens enhance the properties of his standard and super attacks. This means that the more damage he deals, the more powerful his attacks will be for the remainder of the match.

Clancy's main attack, Power Wash, has three distinct stages: Stage 1 fires a single paintball; Stage 2 adds a second paintball; and Stage 3 adds two more paintballs in a diagonal direction.

His Super, Torrent, also has different properties depending on what stage Clancy is currently on. Stage 1 launches multiple paintballs in a cone-shaped area in front of Clancy, while Stages 2 and 3 increase the distance and damaging power of the paintballs.It takes around nine hits for Clancy to reach Stage 2, and another 15 hits to progress to Stage 3.

The Gadget options for Clancy can make a major impact on his game. Snappy Shooting fills the Token meter at double speed for five seconds after activation, giving him quicker access to his top-tier attacks. Tactical Retreat, meanwhile, makes Clancy dash away from a skirmish while reloading an ammo slot, giving him another attack more quickly.

His Star Power choices, similarly, accelerate his damage-dealing prowess from the jump. Recon lets him start with three Tokens already in the meter, while Pumping Up grants him a full reload of his primary weapon whenever he eliminates an opponent.

Clancy is a glass cannon – he deals incredible amounts of damage, but can't really take what he dishes out. You're going to be eliminated a lot with this cowboy crustacean, so he's better suited for match types with multiple respawns.

For best results, take Clancy into a session of Brawl Ball, Gem Grab, or Heist, as his Token meter doesn't reset after being eliminated. So he'll keep getting stronger and stronger as the match progresses. Once he's at Stage 3, he becomes a one-Brawler wrecking crab.
