Colt's strongest measured map is Bridge Too Far (Heist): 56% over 671 matches (reliable). Its weakest is Backyard Bowl (Brawl Ball): 21% over 432 matches (reliable). 20 maps have at least 30 Colt matches; maps with fewer are left out.

On these maps Colt loses more often than it wins. The match count tells you how much weight to give each one.

A win rate only means something when enough matches sit behind it. Next to every number we say how sure we are:

• reliable — 200 matches or more: a solid basis for a verdict.
• fairly reliable — 80 to 199 matches: enough to spot a real pattern.
• early signal — 30 to 79 matches: a hint, not a verdict.
• too few matches — fewer than 30 matches, so we do not show a win rate yet.

A 60% win rate over 40 matches can easily be luck; a 54% win rate over 800 matches is a real edge. Maps and modes with fewer than 30 matches are listed without a win rate on purpose.

Blind-pick safety is coaching metadata, not a meta ranking: it says how risky Colt is to lock in before you can see the enemy draft. Colt scores 5/10.

Gadget: Speedloader — Instantly refills your ammo, letting you win a duel you'd normally lose because you're out of bullets.

Star Power: Slick Boots — Extra movement speed lets you keep aiming in the lane without walking into return fire.

Gears: Damage + Gadget Charge — Colt lives off damage breakpoints; extra gadget charges save your duels.

Stay at long range, use your super to remove walls and expose throwers.

As a sharpshooter, Colt is favoured into tank, fighter, artillery.

• With your Speedloader gadget and long straight lines you focus Shelly: fighters lose once you keep them outside their effective range.
• With your Speedloader gadget and long straight lines you focus Nita: Nita is vulnerable without her bear.
• With your Speedloader gadget and long straight lines you focus Penny: Penny is slow and has no escape.
• With your Speedloader gadget and long straight lines you focus Tick: Tick has the lowest HP in the game, and Colt is considered a direct counter to Tick.

Colt struggles against assassin, thrower and on maps that do not support the sharpshooter role.

This is the coaches' view of which modes suit the sharpshooter role of Colt; the measured win rates per mode are higher up on this page.

• Heist — fit 7/10
• Gem Grab — fit 6/10
• Bounty — fit 6/10

Map fit from the coaching model, next to the measured best maps above. When the two disagree, trust the one with more matches behind it.

Colt is a reasonable middle pick — check which counters are still open before locking it.

Works well alongside Gray.

Learn the pick-order logic in the drafting guide.

Skip Colt when the map layout works against the sharpshooter role, when an unfavourable matchup is still open on the enemy side, or when your team already has the same role covered.
