Brawl Stars Spike Guide: Super, Gadgets, Star Powers, Stats

Spike is a damage-dealing Legendary brawler who's easily one of the best in the game.

From his explosive attacks to his HP-regenerative Gadgets and Star Powers, he's a worthy inclusion in most, if not all, team-based game modes. But don't be mistaken; his high damage output means he is perfectly suited to go solo. He can adequately handle himself in modes like Solo Showdown and Duels.

As Spike can be a tricky brawler to pick up, we've put together a guide going over his abilities. stats, and more.

How To Get Spike In Brawl Stars

You can unlock Spike on the Starr Road. As he is a Legendary brawler, you will only be able to unlock him in the Legendary step. You will need to obtain 3,800 Credits to do so.

Spike Attack - Needle Grenade

Spike's basic attack will shoot an explosive cactus. Once it hits a target or obstacle (or reaches its maximum range), the cactus explodes and shoots six spikes in a circle.

Here's a breakdown of Spike's basic attack damage stats per level:

Spike Super - Stick Around!

Spike's Super will launch a thorny grenade. Upon landing, it creates a circular patch of spikes on the ground that last for 4.5 seconds. Enemies caught within the area will be slowed and take damage.

Here's a look at the Super damage per level:

Spike Gadgets - Popping Pincushion And Life Plant

Spike has two Gadgets: Popping Pincushion and Life Plant. Here's what they do:

• Popping Pincushion: Upon activation, Spike will shoot three waves of ten needles in all directions. Each hit will deal 520 damage.
• Life Plant: Upon activation, Spike grows a giant cactus with 1,750 HP to give cover to allies. If the cactus is destroyed, it will burst, and all nearby allies will recover 1,000 HP.

Spike Star Powers - Fertilize And Curveball

Spike has two Star Powers: Fertilize and Curveball. Here's what they do:

• Fertilize: After using his Super, Spike will regenerate 800 HP per second (for a max of 4,000 HP) if he stays in the area of effect.
• Curveball: Spikes from Spike's basic attack will now fly in a curving clockwise motion (instead of flying in a linear direction).
  

Spike HP Stats

Spike may have one of the best damage outputs in the game, but that comes at a cost to his HP. Simply put, it's below average. You'll need to utilize your Gadgets and Star Powers to stay alive during matches. Support brawlers are also a big plus for durability.
