Tips And Tricks To Play Squirrel Girl
Take the high groundandspam shoot the door where you expect the enemy to appear. This will force them to take a different path, allowing your teammates to handle them. Since her weapon deals explosive damage to anyone nearby,always aim for enemy players in close proximity.
Squirrel Girl doesn’t excel in 1v1 situationsunless you’re very familiar with her kit, so alwaystry to stay within range of a teammate or a Strategist. But let’s be honest, it is bound to happen.
So, if you’re being targeted and find yourself in a 1v1 situation,start by using Squirrel Blockade to trap the enemy, thenhit them with your weapon, or use Tail Bounce to create distance if you’re low on health.
When things go south, alwaysuse Tail Bounce to reach a high-ground platformwhere you may distract the enemy or seek a health pack. But this might not always work if you are against other mobile Dueslists.
The most important ability in her kit is Mamma Bond, andyou should know when to use it. It will most likely be on Tail Bounce,her only escape ability, so it’s better to save it for this if you’re being attacked.
Alternatively, if you’re shooting enemies from a safe distance, you may use it on an additional Squirrel Blockade to trap an enemy your teammate is struggling with.
Finally,her ultimate ability should be saved for when three to four enemy players are togetherto maximize its effectiveness since it can damage all of themthem at once. While it’s not the strongest, it pairs well with other Strategist abilities that canboost your damage.
Essentially, with Squirrel Girl,stay at a safe distance,keep shooting at entrances where enemies might enter, and avoid getting too close unless you have another Duelist and a Strategist with you.
