Angelo is currently S-tier in Bounty with a score of 88/100. As a Marksman, Angelo punishes overextended and mispositioned enemies from long range, making it a reliable pick when the meta favors Bounty.
Run Empower as the default Star Power for Angelo — it works in most situations. Switch to Flow on maps that punish your main weakness. For Gadgets, Stinging Flight is the standard active pick; Master Fletcher is situationally better on specific map types. Speed and Shield Gears are the standard choice.
Angelo struggles against Bull and Rosa, who can out-trade Angelo at the ranges or map types where Angelo is most exposed. On the flip side, Angelo consistently beats Mortis and Leon.
Angelo performs best in Bounty (S-tier, 88/100). The Marksman kit — punishes overextended and mispositioned enemies from long range — is directly rewarded in Bounty, which is why Angelo climbs higher here than in other modes. See the mode ratings section for a full breakdown.
Angelo pairs best with Gene and Penny. Since Angelo punishes overextended and mispositioned enemies from long range, teammates that cover the opposite role — whether that is frontline presence, healing, or ranged poke — create the most complete comp.
To play Angelo well, focus on Bounty where the mode rating is highest, and lean into being a Marksman that punishes overextended and mispositioned enemies from long range. Run Empower as the core build, track Bull and Rosa on the enemy team, and pair with Gene and Penny when possible.
Angelo is a flying marksman who gains increased range and damage when airborne after using his Super, which sends him flying into the air for a period before landing. His arrow attack deals high damage with good range, and his airborne state makes him extremely hard to hit while he maintains full offensive capability. He is one of the strongest Knockout brawlers since his airborne state removes the constant threat of melee brawlers.
Activate Angelo's Super at the start of a fight rather than saving it defensively, since the full duration of flight gives you more offensive output and the altitude makes you significantly harder to hit. Use the trajectory of your landing to reposition to a more favorable angle rather than simply hovering in place.

Find the angle with the longest sightline and hold it. If a fight is forced close range, disengage rather than dueling. Take Empower in most situations, switching to Flow on maps where enemies can close distance. Save Gadgets to escape pressured flanks.
PRIORITY
Draft Around Counters
Watch for Bull or Rosa. Both Stinging Flight and Master Fletcher are in your kit — learn which one punishes your counters versus which gives you an escape window. Use your Gadget early rather than saving it for a desperate moment.
