Ricochet is a super rare brawler in the game. He can be found in brawler chests. He does moderate damage and has a moderate amount of health. His weapon of choice is a rubber ball gun that can make its bullets bounce off walls. This can let you express your creative side by allowing you to come up with unconventional points of attack.
Primary Attack
“Ricochet’s bullets bounce off everything except his opponents, and can hit them behind cover.”
Bouncy Bullets: Ricochet’s attack is similar to Colts in that it is a burst of bullets with low spread. The difference is that Ricochet’s bullets can bounce off of walls. This is useful in situations when an enemy is behind a wall because Ricochet is able to hit them while they cannot easily attack you.
Super Ability
“Ricochet fires a long burst of bullets that can pierce through enemies and bounce off walls.”
Trick Shot: Ricochet fires an strong burst of bouncing bullets. The bullets are larger and glow. Because the bullets bounce off walls, it makes sense that Ricochet’s bullet do not destroy terrain.
Star Power: Super Bouncy
“Ricochet’s bullets, from attack and Super alike, get supercharged by their first bounce and deal +80 damage!”
The burst of bullets Ricochet fires will become empowered after touching the wall. The balls travel faster, turn white, and do more damage.
Beginner Tips
Ricochet is like a sniper. You should always be the back line of your team. If you are dueling a Shelly, you are too close.
When fighting a long ranged brawler,like Colt, find a wall or bushes to hide in. Using his bouncing ability will allow you to attack him but he cannot attack you.
His ultimate has a lot more range than his basic attack so make sure you use it properly.
If you have star power, have your bullet hit a wall earlier than later, the super charge will make it hit your target faster and make them less likely to dodge.
Best Game Modes
My most favorite game modes to play Ricochet in are the once that require zoning and long range team fights. His long range ability and bouncing bullets allows him to hold corners better than anyone else in the arena. He can stop the enemy brawlers from advancing by providing a steady stream of bouncing bullets over a small hallway. Because of these traits, I like Ricochet in the bounty and smash and grab. He is able to clear a path very easily in bounty without being punished. He can also easily stay behind a wall and shoot getting stars for his team without risking his own. In smash and grab, Ricochet is able to zone the enemy off the gem mine and allow your team to recover them. The worst game modes Ricochet can play is probably the showdown since most of his abilities can be easily dodges with a star power that will not be able to get much use of considering how open most maps become.

Conclusion
Ricochet is a fragile super rare character in Brawl Stars, who has the play style of colt but with a twist. He is extremely weak but can hide behind walls and attack from odd angles. He is one of the more unique characters, although later in the game there are better heroes. His super is a buffed version of his regular attack, which is larger and has an increased range.
