Is Ollie Good in Brawl Stars?

Ollie sits comfortably in the high B-tier after recent nerfs, sporting a solid 56.1% win rate over the last 30 days. His pick rate is low at 0.6%, but that doesn’t reflect his actual effectiveness on the right maps and game modes.

You’ll find him thriving in Knockout at 61.9% and dominating Duo Showdown at 68.6%. His penetrating attacks and fast movement speed make him a genuine threat in close-range scenarios, where maps like Close Quarters push his win rate to an impressive 86.5%.

The damage nerf from 2000 to 1800 and the gadget adjustment have shifted him away from solo dominance, but his Super and Hypercharge combos still carry real impact. He’s now better suited for a support role within team synergy setups. If you play him in the right context, he absolutely delivers results. His Super, Hypnotize, deals 800 damage while forcing hypnotized enemies to move toward him for 2.5 seconds, making it a powerful tool for crowd control in clustered fights.

Ollie’s Best Gadget: Regulate vs. All Eyez on Me

Regulate is Ollie’s dominant gadget choice, appearing in 83–86% of top community builds. It lets you jump over walls or water, granting airborne immunity to most damage while hypnotizing enemies at your landing spot for one second. That instant crowd control without needing accurate aim makes it consistently more valuable.

Here’s why Regulate outperforms All Eyez on Me:

Mobility – You can chase Gem Carriers, escape pressure, or reposition over obstacles instantly.
Guaranteed hypnosis – Landing on enemies stuns them immediately, no attack accuracy required.
Area control – You’re hypnotizing multiple enemies at once, not just whoever you hit next.

All Eyez on Me isn’t useless—it reliably hypnotizes from long range on a confident hit—but it demands accurate aim and offers zero mobility. Ollie’s Super charges whenever he takes damage, making Regulate an even stronger pick since aggressive repositioning naturally keeps him in the thick of fights. Unless you’re an exceptional shot, Regulate gives you far more consistent value.

Ollie’s Best Star Power: Renegade or Kick, Push?

Ollie’s Renegade Star Power grants 4,000 shield after you dash forward with your Super, giving you a critical survivability window that pairs naturally with an aggressive, tank-focused playstyle. Kick, Push offers a 20% movement speed boost near walls, making it situationally useful on wall-heavy maps where you can exploit that extra mobility. For most scenarios, though, you’ll want to run Renegade, as its shield synergy and consistent defensive value make it the stronger pick across the widest range of maps and modes. The shield itself decays over 4 seconds, meaning you’ll need to act quickly and capitalize on the window it provides before it disappears.

Renegade Star Power Explained

When it comes to Star Powers, Renegade is Ollie’s best pick by a wide margin. After you dash forward with your Hypnotize Super, you instantly gain a 4,000 HP shield that lasts four seconds. That’s a 36% health boost on top of your base 11,200 HP.

Here’s why Renegade works so well in practice:

Burst Protection – The shield absorbs heavy damage during your most vulnerable post-Super window.
Aggressive Positioning – You can push forward recklessly without immediate punishment.
Gadget Synergy – Pairing Renegade with the Regulate gadget stacks hypnosis crowd control with shield absorption for a devastating defensive combo.

Pro players consistently prioritize Renegade first, and it remains competitively viable at Power 9 and above. Ollie was added to Starr Road alongside Meeple, making his arrival a dual brawler release that generated immediate competitive interest in both characters.

Kick, Push Viable Scenarios

Although Renegade dominates the meta, Kick, Push earns its place on wall-heavy maps where that 20% speed boost—160 extra speed points—lets you pressure lanes, control zones, and disengage safely without relying on a post-Super shield.

You’ll thrive in Gem Grab, Hot Zone, and Brawl Ball, where walls are abundant and terrain hugging keeps you mobile. Pair it with the Jump gadget to hop walls while boosted, or use Regulate for clutch escapes against tanks and assassins. Your Hypnotize Super also synergizes well, letting you peel quickly through wall travel.

Avoid open maps entirely—without consistent walls, the boost rarely activates, leaving you exposed. Stick to control-oriented modes, and Kick, Push genuinely competes, even if the pick rate doesn’t reflect it yet. Ollie’s main attack, Bring the Ruckus, fires a piercing soundwave in a cone, making it especially punishing on wall-heavy maps where enemies are funneled into choke points.

Best Star Power Pick

Choosing between Renegade and Kick, Push comes down to one question: do you want survivability or mobility? For most situations, Renegade wins clearly.

Here’s why Renegade dominates:

Instant 4,000 shield activates after every Super dash, protecting you during close-range commitments.
Works on any map, unlike Kick, Push, which requires wall-heavy layouts that rarely appear consistently.
Pairs with Health Gear to recover HP 50% faster, making you considerably tankier overall.

Kick, Push’s 20% speed boost near walls sounds appealing, but its map dependency makes it unreliable. Renegade’s 84% pick rate across top builds confirms what pros already know—survivability beats situational mobility. Unless you’re specifically playing wall-heavy maps, always run Renegade.

Best Gears for Ollie in 2026

Ollie has 4 gears worth running, but the best 2-gear combo is Shield and Damage. Shield gives you 900 health as a consumable buffer that regenerates after 10 seconds at full health, making it ideal for absorbing early damage and sustaining through initial fights. It also pairs well with Renegade Star Power for extra shielding. Damage kicks in when you drop below 50% health, dealing 15% extra damage and helping you win close fights you’d otherwise lose. It’s the most picked gear at 35% usage for good reason.

If you’re playing a tankier style, swap Damage for Health, which boosts HP regeneration by 50% and keeps you alive longer in extended fights. Finally, Gadget Charge is a situational option if you’re leaning into hypnosis-heavy gameplay, giving you an extra gadget use to disrupt and control enemies more effectively.

Best Game Modes for Ollie in Brawl Stars

Knowing which gears to run only gets you so far—the game modes you queue into matter just as much. Ollie thrives where area control and close-range pressure define the outcome, so prioritize these three modes:

Knockout – A 61.9% win rate and 54.1 competitive score make this Ollie’s strongest competitive pick. Elimination format rewards his hypnotization and burst damage.
Wipeout – An 81.7% win rate with 57.2 points reflects exceptional performance. His hypnotization locks enemies out of repositioning during critical scoring windows.
Duo Showdown – A 68.6% win rate confirms how well his crowd control scales with a partner amplifying his pressure.

Avoid Bounty whenever possible. Open maps expose you to snipers, and Ollie’s close-to-medium range can’t compete against sustained long-distance fire. Queue into control-heavy modes and let his hypnotization mechanics do the heavy lifting.

Ollie’s Best Builds by Playstyle

Whether you’re locking down objectives or diving into chaotic close-range fights, your build determines how effectively Ollie converts pressure into wins.

For control-focused modes like Gem Grab and Hot Zone, run Regulate with Renegade and Speed plus Damage gears. You’ll maintain consistent mid-range pressure while the 4000 decaying post-Super shield keeps you alive during trades.

For ambush and dive playstyles in Solo Showdown or Knockout, switch to All Eyez on Me. Hypnotizing targets on hit opens burst combos, and Speed plus Damage gears let you clean up low-health enemies fast.

For aggressive modes like Brawl Ball, All Eyez on Me pairs well with Kick, Push for rushes, while Damage and Shield gears support head-to-head fights.

For wall-heavy maps, prioritize Shield gear for sustained regen and Renegade to maximize Super dash value after engagements.

How to Flank and Zone With Ollie’s Super

Mastering Ollie’s Super means knowing when to commit to a flank and when to hold it for zone control. Position yourself in a side lane without carrying gems, giving you freedom to engage without risking resources. Use your Super to dash through or around walls, then let the Hypnotize effect pull enemies toward you for easy follow-up damage.

Three situations where your Super creates the most value:

Hot Zone contests — Dash into grouped enemies mid-air to chain crowd control across multiple targets simultaneously.
Gem handoffs — Time your Super when enemies contest a trade, disrupting their positioning at the worst moment for them.
Wall flanks with Regulate — Use the gadget before detonation to bypass terrain and surprise enemies from unexpected angles.

Activate Renegade Star Power before committing so the 3000-point decaying shield keeps you alive through the close-range chaos.
