Strengths
As a marksman, Belle is favoured into tank, fighter, support.
- With your super that marks him so your team deals extra damage you focus Gene: Gene has low HP and a slow attack, and Belle is considered a direct counter to Gene.
- With your super that marks him so your team deals extra damage you focus Barley: Barley can't shoot directly, so standing on him is free damage, and Belle is considered a direct counter to Barley.
- With your super that marks him so your team deals extra damage you focus Poco: Poco can barely defend himself.
- With your super that marks him so your team deals extra damage you focus Gus: Gus is fragile once his shield is gone.
Weaknesses
Belle struggles against assassin, thrower, artillery and on maps that do not support the marksman role.

Draft advice
Belle is a reasonable middle pick — check which counters are still open before locking it.
Works well alongside Buster.

When not to pick
Skip Belle when the map layout works against the marksman role, when an unfavourable matchup is still open on the enemy side, or when your team already has the same role covered.
