Brawl Stars Grom Guide – Attacks & Stats Per Level

Grom’s primary attack, called “Bud Go Boom!”, is a long-range thrown projectile. He can control where it lands, allowing him to hit targets near or far. When the attack connects, it breaks apart into four smaller projectiles that spread out in a cross pattern. Plus, the attack can go through enemies, letting Grom damage several opponents with a single throw.

Grom’s Super attack, the Grom Bomb, is a more powerful version of his regular attack. He throws a large bomb that explodes and also sends fragments flying in four directions. This attack does extra damage, can destroy walls, and knocks enemies back.

Okay, so Grom’s ultimate, “Grom Bomb Goes Boom!”, got a cool upgrade! Now, when I use it, there’s an extra explosion that goes off in an X shape. It really helps cover more ground and makes things explode even more spectacularly!

Brawl Stars Grom Guide – Which Star Powers & Gadgets are the best?

Overall, Grom has two gadgets:

  • Watchtower – “Grom ejects a Watchtower from his Grom Bomb that gives all allies sight into bushes over a large area. The watchtower slowly loses health over time.”
  • Radio Check – “Grom’s next attack throws 3 Buds in rapid succession.”

Additionally, Grom has two Star Powers:

  • Foot Patrol – When Grom’s Super is fully charged, he gains faster movement speed.”
  • X-Factor – “The split from Grom’s main attack deals extra damage at max distance.”

Furthermore, Grom can use the following gears in battle:

  • Speed
  • Vision
  • Health
  • Shield
  • Damage
  • Gadget Cooldown

Brawl Stars Grom Guide – Recommended Star Power, Gadget, & Gear Setup

We recommend the Radio Check gadget for its high damage. It consistently deals significant damage to stationary objects like heist safes. Plus, with accurate timing, it can severely injure or even eliminate enemies.

Okay, so for Star Powers, I’m all about X-Factor with Grom. It just fits his playstyle perfectly! I usually like to hang back and chuck stuff at enemies because he’s kinda fragile, right? X-Factor makes landing those long-range shots even better – it feels so good when you nail them from way off. Honestly, Foot Patrol’s speed boost seems kinda weak; needing to save my Super just to get a little faster isn’t ideal.

For Gears on Grom, we suggest using Damage and Shield Gear. As we often recommend in our Brawl Stars guides, this combination boosts both his health and damage output.

Brawl Stars – Which Modes Should You Use Grom in (And Which Modes You Shouldn’t)

Duo/Trio Showdown

Grom excels at breaking open boxes, which allows him and his team to quickly collect power cubes. However, he’s best positioned away from direct combat – keep him towards the back of your team where he can safely attack enemies from a distance.

Bounty/Knockout/Wipeout

Grom’s ability to attack from a distance makes him well-suited for these game modes. But, be careful and use cover, since he doesn’t have much health. Skilled players using Piper or Mandy can easily defeat you from far away. So, stay towards the back of the fight and save your Super for when things get chaotic.

Hot Zone

Grom’s primary attack effectively keeps enemies out of the danger zone. His Super is especially useful for dealing with groups, as it damages and pushes back all three enemies, potentially giving your team enough time to finish them off. Just remember that Grom doesn’t have much health, so be careful!

Brawl Stars Grom Guide – What Mode(s) Should I NOT Use Grom In?

Solo Showdown

I really enjoy playing Grom with a team in this mode, but going solo can be tough. He just doesn’t have a way to create space for himself except with his Super, which has a cooldown. Plus, he’s a bit squishy – he can’t really tank much damage in close-range fights. And honestly, the maps are so big that it’s easy for opponents to just run away and dodge his attacks, which is frustrating!

Heist

Grom excels at breaking through enemy defenses with his primary attack. However, he struggles against Assassin heroes. Aside from his Super ability, he lacks effective tools to protect himself from fast-attacking heroes like Edgar, Kit, or Gigi.

Overall, that wraps up our Brawl Stars Grom Guide!
