Where Sandy shines
- Area utility helps coordinated movement
- Broad attacks are useful in contested lanes
Know your limits
- Limited reach across open maps
- A sandstorm placed away from the fight loses value
One habit to practice
Position your sandstorm to connect useful cover and objectives. Move with teammates to use the space it creates.
