Lily is an exceptional choice for Knockout mode in Brawl Stars due to her unique abilities and gear setup. Her **Gadget Vanish** allows her to temporarily become invisible, making it perfect for sneaky plays. In Knockout, where there’s no respawn, this ability lets her reposition, escape danger, or ambush opponents at critical moments. Her **Star Power Spiky** adds extra damage to her attacks, helping her quickly eliminate enemies, especially in the final moments when matches can get tense and every bit of damage matters. The combination of **Speed** and **Shield Gears** makes Lily even more formidable. The Speed Gear allows her to move faster in bushes, letting her outmaneuver opponents and position herself for surprise attacks or quick retreats. Meanwhile, the Shield Gear gives her added survivability, which is crucial in a game mode where every bit of health counts. Overall, Lily’s versatile toolkit, with Vanish for tactical play, Spiky for damage, and Speed and Shield for mobility and durability, makes her one of the best brawlers for Knockout.

Guide
### How to Play Lily in Knockout (Brawl Stars)Lily excels in Knockout mode thanks to her ability to surprise opponents, deal solid damage, and stay alive with a strategic playstyle. Here's a guide on how to maximize her potential:---#### 1. Early Game – Play Cautiously- Positioning: At the start of the round, avoid diving straight into the action. Use bushes and walls to stay hidden, waiting for the enemy to make the first move.
- Charge Your Super: Focus on poking enemies from a distance to safely charge your Super. Avoid risky trades, as staying alive in Knockout is crucial.
---#### 2. Mid Game – Engage and Pressure- Use Gadget Vanish for Sneaky Plays: Once enemies are spread out or distracted, use Vanish to turn invisible. You can either reposition yourself for a better angle or get behind enemies for a surprise attack. Vanish is particularly useful for catching low-health brawlers off guard or escaping dangerous situations.
- Isolate Targets: If you notice a lone enemy, use Vanish to close the distance and engage them before they regroup with their team. Lily’s Spiky Star Power adds extra damage, allowing you to burst down isolated targets quickly.---#### 3. Late Game – Focus on Survivability- Stay Mobile with Speed Gear: In the final moments, when fewer players are alive, use the Speed Gear to navigate through bushes, keeping yourself unpredictable. Knockout maps often have plenty of bush cover, which gives you a mobility advantage over your opponents.
- Use Shield Gear for Extra Durability: If you're low on health or expect to take damage in close-quarter fights, the Shield Gear gives you an extra layer of protection. This can be the difference between winning and losing, especially when you're in a 1v1 or 1v2 scenario.---#### General Tips:
- Poke and Retreat: Lily isn’t a tank, so avoid prolonged engagements. Poke from a distance, retreat to safety, and use your invisibility to dodge attacks or surprise enemies.
- Team Coordination: Communicate with your teammates (if possible) to set up pincer attacks. Use Vanish to flank enemies while your teammates keep them busy from the front.
- Super Timing: Lily's Super is a crucial tool. Don’t waste it too early—try to save it for when you need to secure a kill or when it will give you a strategic advantage in the final stages of the round.---By mastering these tactics, you can make the most out of Lily’s powerful Vanish Gadget, Spiky Star Power, and Speed/Shield Gears to dominate in Knockout mode. Stay unpredictable, outmaneuver your enemies, and strike at the perfect time!
Game Modes
Bounty
• Why it Works: In Bounty, staying alive and picking off enemies from a safe distance is key. Lily’s Vanish Gadget allows her to either escape when she has high stars or flank and ambush high-value targets. Her Spiky Star Power helps with burst damage, allowing her to finish off weakened enemies and secure stars for the team. With the Speed Gear, she can quickly move through bushes, remaining unpredictable.
Heist
• Why it Works: Lily can perform well in Heist thanks to her ability to dish out strong damage against enemy brawlers or the safe. Her Vanish Gadget allows her to infiltrate enemy lines and sneak close to the safe, while her Spiky Star Power boosts her offensive output. She can help apply pressure or provide cover for teammates who focus on the safe.
Gem Grab
• Why it Works: Lily can play as a gem carrier or a support in Gem Grab. Using her Vanish Gadget, she can disappear to dodge enemies and reappear in a better position to hold or collect gems. As a flanking brawler, she can also pick off enemy gem carriers with her Spiky Star Power, giving her team the advantage. Her Speed Gear allows for quick gem retrieval and repositioning when needed.
Showdown
• Why it Works: In Solo Showdown, survival and positioning are critical. Lily’s Vanish Gadget gives her a huge advantage in sneaking away from dangerous situations or ambushing enemies who are unaware of her location. Her Shield Gear provides extra survivability during intense late-game situations, and Speed Gear helps her move through bushes and quickly escape or engage opponents.
Works Well With
Gene
• Role: Support/Control
• Why it Works: Gene’s Super can pull enemies into bad positions, setting up easy eliminations for Lily. His long-range poke can also help soften up enemies, allowing Lily to finish them off with her burst damage. Additionally, his Healing Puffs Star Power provides constant healing for the team, helping Lily survive longer in tricky situations.
Tick
• Role: Area Control/Chip Damage
• Why it Works: Tick is great for controlling zones with his mines and keeping enemies at bay. He forces the enemy team to constantly reposition, which opens opportunities for Lily to use her Vanish Gadget to sneak in and ambush distracted brawlers. Tick’s Super is also a great way to flush out low-health opponents that Lily can finish off.
Surge
• Role: Versatile Damage Dealer
• Why it Works: Surge’s ability to upgrade during the match gives him a massive power spike, making him a strong companion for Lily. His teleportation skill helps him quickly close gaps or escape danger, similar to Lily’s Vanish Gadget. Surge’s Super can also knock back enemies, isolating them and making them easier for Lily to eliminate.
Byron
• Role: Healer/Support
• Why it Works: Byron can provide Lily with crucial healing while also dealing chip damage from a distance. His long-range poison attacks help keep enemies low on health, making it easier for Lily to swoop in with her Spiky Star Power and secure kills. Byron’s healing shots also give Lily more sustainability, which is vital in Knockout’s no-respawn format.
