No map where Sandy wins more than it loses has 30 or more matches yet.
How to read these numbers
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
Blind-pick safety is coaching metadata, not a meta ranking: it says how risky Sandy is to lock in before you can see the enemy draft. Sandy scores 7/10.
Best build
Gadget: Sleep Stimulator — Heal zone in your storm: your team survives the entire fight inside it.
Star Power: Rude Sands — Your storm deals damage, so the opponent can't just stand inside it.
Gears: Gadget Charge + Health — Your super and gadget are your value.
Place your storm on the objective, not on the opponent.

Strengths
As a support, Sandy is favoured into marksman, assassin.
- With your sandstorm super to close in unseen you focus Spike: Spike is fragile and his cactus is easy to dodge.
- With your sandstorm super to close in unseen you focus Stu: assassins have low HP once their dash is on cooldown.
- With your sandstorm super to close in unseen you focus Crow: Crow has low HP and relies on poke.
- With your sandstorm super to close in unseen you focus Leon: Leon is visible as soon as he attacks and has low HP.
Weaknesses
Sandy struggles against tank, sharpshooter and on maps that do not support the support role.
