LegendaryMarksman

Best Pierce build

A ten-tile marksman with the longest reload in the game, so every shot is a decision rather than part of a rhythm.

How to play it

Behind cover at the far end of a sightline, and somewhere different after every shot, because the three-second reload is exactly how long it takes someone to reach him.

The Super is a narrow, heavy shot, so line it up on a target that has already committed to a lane rather than firing it into a crowd and hoping.

Common mistakes

  • Firing at a target he cannot finish and standing empty for three seconds
  • Holding the same tile after a shot has told the enemy exactly where he is
  • Chipping at tanks instead of waiting for a squishy target worth the reload
