Hey, I am BeginnerGamer19. Today, I will tell you about Brawl Stars beginner brawler, Shelly. Shelly can be used immediately at the start of the game. She can be useful at most maps as her attack can reach quite far and is quite spread out.
Shelly looks like this (but not so much damage bcoz mine is power level 5 >_<):
With the above pictures, you can see that Shelly has quite a good offence, a not bad defence, but no utility. Utility means that Shelly can help other teammates with her super or gadget.
Let's check out her attack and super at a closer look:
After looking at this, you may think that Shelly actually does 5*360=1800 at one shot, actually her attack goes in a wide spreader angle. Therefore, those 5 pellets actually fire in 5 different directions. So if you were fire directly straight and in the centre of your enemy, maximum damage would be done, but it is very difficult to do this as your health is not as much and your range is not very far too.
Now, we have a problem, how can we use Shelly?
Let's see what Shelly has that makes her special:
1. Shelly can shoot in a fan-like arch that is spread out.
2. Shelly's super can knock down walls and push back enemies. Super also does a lot more damage.
3. Shelly is a fighter with faster reload speed.
How can we maximise Shelly's traits?
1. Shelly can hit more than one enemy at a time without getting too close.
2. Shelly will be useful in Gem Grab and Brawl Ball events as she can push away enemies hoarding the centre space of Gem Grab and knock down walls blocking the goal in Brawl Ball.
3. Shelly will be able to beat more enemies efficiently without needing to worry about reloading, but will need to team up with a heavyweight(more durability) or a sharpshooter(more damage and more range).
But, if you power Shelly up more, she might be excellent in team fights or could even go solo. When you up her power level, you can increase her damage and her health so that she will be more easier to use.
Star powers can be found in brawl boxes after Shelly is Power Level 9. These can help you ascend up the trophy road and make it easier to defeat tough enemies.
Star Power 1: Shell Shock
Shelly's Super shells slow down enemies for 3 seconds
Best for crowd control or in team fights. Can also be used when being chased.
Star Power 2: Band-Aid
When Shelly has less than 40% health, she instantly heals 1800 health. This recharges in 20 seconds.
Useful in Showdown or Boss Fight, when health is vital for victory
.
Lastly, there is also an extra thing called a gadget. A gadget can be obtained in any box or be bought from the store. Every brawler only has one gadget available and can be used 3 times in a match.
Shelly's Gadget: Fast Forward
Shelly dashes ahead. Quite useful for Solo and Duo Showdown when you need to eliminate some enemies that are running away.
When playing: try to use a mobile phone with better specs and a strong connection :)
