Buster
Best build
The best build for Buster involves using the Slo-Mo Replay gadget to secure kills and utilizing Kevlar Vest to become immune to negative effects while activating his Super, ensuring he’s not vulnerable. Use the Damage Gear to secure kill more easily. Additionally, the Speed Gear is a must-have for better positioning and catching enemies off guard.

Other build

Brawl Stars Guide
attack
Buster’s attack emits a cone-shaped wave of light that penetrates through enemies. Targets closer to Buster receive the maximum damage of 2760, while targets at the maximum range take 1380 damage. To maximize the effectiveness of his attack, try to position yourself as close to your enemies as possible
Super
Buster deploys a sturdy barrier in the direction he’s facing, which lasts for 3 seconds. This barrier acts as a shield, effectively blocking most enemy attacks and absorbing all damage. Moreover, whenever an incoming projectile is blocked by Buster’s shield, it’s redirected back as a counterattack projectile, dealing a consistent 1600 damage.
Traits
Buster Charges his Super when his teammates are inside his Super charge area. It reloads two times faster when there are two allies inside his Super charge area.
UTILITY BELT
The Utility Belt instantly restores 936 health to Buster and nearby allies for each ally in his Super charge area. It’s a swift way to heal yourself and your teammates, especially if anyone’s health is running low.
SLO-MO REPLAY
Slo-Mo Replay makes your next Lens Flare attack pull in. This makes it handy for securing eliminations on low-health opponents by pulling them closer. You can also use Slo-Mo Replay to disrupt an enemy’s Super ability or to snatch the ball from an opponent in Brawl Ball mode.
BLOCKBUSTER
With Buster’s Star Power, Blockbuster, his attack becomes more powerful when he’s close to his allies. For each teammate nearby, his damage increases by 15%. Blockbuster make Buster a formidable force in team fights, dealing massive damage when fighting alongside his friends.
KEVLAR VEST
The Kevlar Vest gives him a shield and protects him from being slowed, stunned, or knocked back while his Super is active. The shield also reduces damage by 10%. When using your Super, charge through enemy fire without fear of getting slowed, stunned, or pushed around. Initiate teamfights and create opportunities for your teammates with your Super. It’s also handy for escaping danger.
