Why this Maisie build works

A C-tier marksman like Maisie strongest build in 2026 is the "Pinpoint Precision" Star Power together with the "Disengage" Gadget. "Pinpoint Precision" is the pick that turns Maisie's baseline into a real threat — it scales with the way a marksman wants to trade, and the numbers back it up (52% win rate, 15.7% pick rate). "Disengage" adds the exact utility the kit is missing: burst, reposition or lockdown depending on the situation, and it converts neutral fights into won trades when timed with your Super. For gears we lock in Shield as the primary because it compounds with the Star Power the most on Maisie specifically — swap the secondary to Shield on open maps or Damage on close-range brawls.

Tremors

Enemies hit by Shockwave are also slowed down for x seconds.

Situational alternatives

If the map favours long-range enemies, swap "Disengage" for a repositioning Gadget when available; in Brawl Ball, Shield gears keep Maisie alive long enough to land the Super, while in Heist and Bounty the Damage and Speed gears squeeze much more value out of "Pinpoint Precision". The real rule is simple: adapt the build to how opponents try to punish your marksman role, not the other way around.
