How to counter Charlie

Playing Charlie

reviewed 19 Jul 2026

A controller whose yo-yo hits on the way out and on the way back, and whose Super wraps one enemy in a cocoon they cannot act from.

Early game

Poke down the lane and let the yo-yo return through the same target; the double pass is her damage and it costs nothing extra.

Positioning

At the back of a nine-tile lane, since she has no dash and the yo-yo leaves her without an attack while it is travelling home.

Using your Super

Cocoon the brawler whose absence loses them the fight, and cast it as the fight begins rather than as a finisher on someone already dying.

Common mistakes

  • Cocooning a low-health enemy her team was about to kill anyway
  • Firing the yo-yo at a target that will have moved before it returns
  • Playing forward with no escape and a slow projectile that leaves her empty-handed
  • Team modes where removing one brawler for several seconds settles the fight
  • Against a carry with no way to break out of a lockout quickly
  • Chokes, where the returning yo-yo hits the same target twice

By mode

Gem Grab

A cocooned carrier cannot escape with the gems they are holding.

Brawl Ball

Wrapping the carrier in front of the net is a cleared attack every time.
