FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Draco is currently S-tier in Brawl Ball with a score of 86/100. As a Tank, Draco absorbs frontline damage and creates space for teammates to push, making it a reliable pick when the meta favors Brawl Ball.
Run Expose as the default Star Power for Draco — it works in most situations. Switch to Shredding on maps that punish your main weakness. For Gadgets, Upper Cut is the standard active pick; Last Stand is situationally better on specific map types. Speed and Shield Gears are the standard choice.
Draco struggles against Barley and Tick, who can out-trade Draco at the ranges or map types where Draco is most exposed. On the flip side, Draco consistently beats Edgar and Mortis.
Draco performs best in Brawl Ball (S-tier, 86/100). The Tank kit — absorbs frontline damage and creates space for teammates to push — is directly rewarded in Brawl Ball, which is why Draco climbs higher here than in other modes. See the mode ratings section for a full breakdown.
Draco pairs best with Poco and Gene. Since Draco absorbs frontline damage and creates space for teammates to push, teammates that cover the opposite role — whether that is frontline presence, healing, or ranged poke — create the most complete comp.
To play Draco well, focus on Brawl Ball where the mode rating is highest, and lean into being a Tank that absorbs frontline damage and creates space for teammates to push. Run Expose as the core build, track Barley and Tick on the enemy team, and pair with Poco and Gene when possible.

HOW TO PLAY DRACO

Draco is a dragon-themed melee brawler whose attacks generate fire and his Super unleashes a powerful transformation that increases his fire damage and range substantially. In his transformed state his attacks cover a much wider area and deal additional burning damage, making him capable of pressuring multiple enemies simultaneously. He is effective in control modes where his transformation can dominate clustered zones.

Activate Draco's transformation Super before entering a contested zone rather than mid-fight, as the setup time for maximum DPS in transformed form is most effective when opponents are forced to engage on your terms. His fire coverage in the transformed state makes enclosed zones extremely difficult for enemies to contest.

PRO TIPS

Tank Game Plan
Position between enemies and your team. Your value comes from soaking damage, not dealing it. Choose Expose in most situations, switching to Shredding on maps where enemies can close distance. Charge your Super passively by staying in fights and engage with it to set up teammates, not to escape.
PRIORITY
Draft Around Counters
Watch for Barley or Tick. Both Upper Cut and Last Stand 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.
MATCHUP
Best Team Shape
Pair Draco with Poco or Gene when possible. Build toward Fire and Flames in safe positions — it swings fights instantly, so activate it when your team has the edge, not when you are already behind.
