Sandy’s primary attack involves piercing sand bullets that can cover wide areas but deal minimal damage. His unique Super Sandstorm ability summons a sandstorm that lasts for nine seconds, concealing allies within its area from enemy view. This makes Sandy a game-changer in battles.

The optimal gadget for Sandy is Sweet Dreams, which puts opponents to sleep for one second. They wake up upon taking damage, so use this gadget when you have full ammo and are near an opponent with your allies. This strategy allows for a swift team attack to eliminate the sleeping enemy. Additionally, Sweet Dreams can be used defensively to escape from aggressive Brawlers.

Rude Sands as Sandy's Star Power enhances his Sandstorm by dealing damage to enemies within its radius. Activate this ability when surrounded by both allies and foes to maximize its impact. Be cautious not to use your Gadget during the Sandstorm, as Rude Sands will negate the sleep effect.

For Sandy’s Gears, Exhausting Storm and Damage are recommended. Exhausting Storm debuffs enemies within the Sandstorm, reducing their damage output by 20 percent. Meanwhile, the Damage gear increases Sandy's attack by 50 percent when his health is below half.
