Among the brawlers, there is Gigi, a character both fun and strategic — an epic sniper who rewards good positioning. In this article, I give you a complete overview of Gigi: her attacks, her Super, her star powers, her gadgets, and everything you need to master her. Buckle up, ready? ### Gigi's attacks Gigi is a sniper-type brawler who excels at range. Her main attack is **"Pirouette Power-Up"**: she spins around, dealing damage to enemies around her — great for hitting several opponents at once when they bunch up. Every projectile feeds her Super meter, so weaving through enemy fire charges her Super without even needing to land basic attacks. Gigi also has a Super called **"Shadow Puppet"**. Once placed, a 3-second timer appears; activating it again returns her to the original spot while dealing 2,600 to 3,000 damage at the exit point. Use it to close distance instantly against snipers, or to escape a dive — but mind the cooldown and pick the timing carefully. ### Gigi's Star Powers Star Powers are what make each brawler unique. For Gigi, there is **"Longer Strings"**, which enlarges her passive detection zone for four seconds on an 18-second cooldown — handy to keep tabs on enemies and pre-aim. The second one is **"A Helping Hand"**, a support-oriented option that helps her team. Pick based on your role in the team. ### Gigi's Gadgets Gigi also has two gadgets that fit her like a glove. The first is a **teleport-style gadget**, letting her blink to a chosen spot — perfect for escaping a bad situation or engaging unexpectedly. The second boosts her next attack's damage, which can turn the tide between an enemy in range and one fleeing at full speed. ### Gigi's Gears Gears add a layer of customization for every brawler. For Gigi, you have several options. One of the best gears to equip is the **Damage Gear**, which boosts your damage — with it, you wreak serious havoc on the battlefield, especially below 50% health when the bonus kicks in. There is also the **Health Gear**, ideal if you want to play a bit more defensively. With extra health, you stay in the fight longer, which is crucial for supporting team fights. Finally, the **Speed Gear** can help improve your mobility — her speed boost during Pirouette Power-Up already helps her break line of sight against snipers. In a game where every second counts, moving faster gives you an edge, especially in close-quarters fights. ### Strategies for playing Gigi Now that you know Gigi's kit, here are the strategies to adopt. The key to playing Gigi well is alternating between attack and defense. Thanks to her ranged attacks, you can harass the enemy while staying safe. Avoid getting too close to opponents who can burst you down. Do not forget to use your Star Power and Gadgets at the right moment. Good timing can turn the tide in your favor. Get into the habit of watching your enemies' movements to anticipate theirs. Finally, communication with your team is crucial. Gigi can deal considerable damage, but she also needs protection. Tell your teammates your plans and try to stay grouped to maximize your attacks' effectiveness. ### Matchups: who Gigi counters — and who counters her Gigi shines against squishy long-range shooters such as Grom, Nani or Sprout: her range and Shadow Puppet let her delete them before they can react. On the flip side, tanks and melee brawlers like Doug or Jacky are her worst nightmare — if they close the gap, your range advantage disappears. Keep your distance, poke from cover and let your teammates peel for you. ### Final thoughts Gigi is clearly a powerful brawler whose attacks and abilities make her formidable on the battlefield. Whether you are a beginner or a veteran, mastering Gigi can really improve your experience. By applying these tips and practicing, you are well on your way to the top of the leaderboards. So, ready to rack up scores with Gigi?
