Chester is currently A-tier in Knockout with a score of 82/100. As an Assassin, Chester bursts down isolated targets and disrupts backline positions, making it a reliable pick when the meta favors Knockout.
Run Single Bell'o'mania as the default Star Power for Chester — it works in most situations. Switch to Sneak Peek on maps that punish your main weakness. For Gadgets, Spicy Dice is the standard active pick; Candy Beans is situationally better on specific map types. Speed and Shield Gears are the standard choice.
Chester struggles against Charlie and Bibi, who can out-trade Chester at the ranges or map types where Chester is most exposed. On the flip side, Chester consistently beats Poco and Gene.
Chester performs best in Knockout (A-tier, 82/100). The Assassin kit — bursts down isolated targets and disrupts backline positions — is directly rewarded in Knockout, which is why Chester climbs higher here than in other modes. See the mode ratings section for a full breakdown.
Chester pairs best with Gene and Sandy. Since Chester bursts down isolated targets and disrupts backline positions, teammates that cover the opposite role — whether that is frontline presence, healing, or ranged poke — create the most complete comp.
To play Chester well, focus on Knockout where the mode rating is highest, and lean into being a Assassin that bursts down isolated targets and disrupts backline positions. Run Single Bell'o'mania as the core build, track Charlie and Bibi on the enemy team, and pair with Gene and Sandy when possible.
Chester fires one of five randomly selected special attacks each time he attacks, ranging from explosive bombs to slowing attacks to instant stuns, making him uniquely unpredictable. His Super grants him a temporary random bonus based on whichever random ability he fires next. The randomness makes him both exciting and inconsistent, but in the right situations his variance can produce far higher output than consistent brawlers.
Chester's randomness means adaptation is more important than planning, so react to whatever ability appears rather than expecting a specific one. His Super random bonus can occasionally provide his team-winning play, so use it aggressively rather than saving it for a perfect moment that may never arrive.

Mode-specific stats and the top ranked Chester players globally. Each page shows win rate, pick rate, best maps and tier for that specific combination.
Wait for a 1v1 opening before committing. Your burst is wasted against grouped enemies. Run Single Bell'o'mania in most situations, switching to Sneak Peek on maps where enemies can close distance. Use Gadgets as openers rather than saving them — an early Gadget creates the isolation your kit needs.
PRIORITY
Draft Around Counters
Watch for Charlie or Bibi. Both Spicy Dice and Candy Beans 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.
