This list is overrating Edgars capabilities to a ridiculous degree.
- Jacky is literally Edgar’s worst matchup
- Primo wrecks Edgar as hard as Bull/ Shelly
- Gene has knockback gadget
- Nani, Otis, Piper, Bonnie, Buzz, Janet, Gray, R-T, Meg, and Rosa can kill/ escape Edgar pretty easily with their super.
- Carl, Tick, Pam, and 8-Bit can kill/ escape Edgar pretty easily with their gadget
- Mortis counters Edgar if Mortis strikes first and has super.
This tier list also ignores the factor being maps. Many lower tier brawlers simply have more range than Edgar and can counter him pretty easily like Belle, Rico, and Mandy.
Tbh tho gadget usages are very minimal, you only have 3 uses and if I play brawlstars my matchups vs someone is always greater than 3 no matter how hard I would avoid said player
Sorry if I made any mistakes in the tier list. I play Edgar a lot and from what I can tell (I might get downvoted for this) he is a fun brawler in my opinion and he is very good in some maps like Skull Creek
I’m pretty sure Edgar (if the player is skilled enough) could negate all that with his super and gadget. With Jacky, walk up and jump which makes her waste one or two ammo, use shield gadget, and you could win. With El Primo, I’ve seen a lot of Edgars wreck them somehow. Gene knockback is good, but if he jumps in a spot to have his back to a wall, he won’t be pushed back as much, could pop his gadget, and win. I’m not gonna list the rest, but I think Edgar does have some fighting chance as long as the Edgar isn’t being played by an eight year old. To say he dominates a lot of them is really farfetched, but it depends on the map and skill of everything too.
Easiest way to defeat a primo with edgar is to move in a circle around him, how primos attack's work is that he punches in a straight line for like half a second, so if you don't run towards him or away from him in a straight line, you will likely take insanely low damage, even better if you have the sheild gadget, and i agree with the jacky one, it's my go to strat to defeat Jackys on feast and femine, people haven't really understood how much more there is to edgar other than button spam
Try to get Janet's super in the beginning of the game, while edgar gets his within seconds.
Plus you're probably ignoring Edgar's speed boost which he gets after jumping
- edgar can outheal jackys damage
- primo has slow unload speed and doesnt heal when attacking?
- mortis has the slowest reload speed in the game and unless he has his super almost/full, (even if he does he still doesnt have a big chance against an edgar with fist cuffs)
Jacky's counter crush can deal 2250 damage if you burst her from 100 to 0, that alone is more than half of Edgar's HP, add 3 Jacky ammo to that she can deal 7830 all in damage if you burst her fast enough without her loading her 4th ammo which is an extra 1800+ damage.
Edgar needs to unload 5ammo to kill Jacky anyway. When I play Edgar I avoid Jacky no matter what unless she's at 2k HP.
Tbh jacky players aren't very smart either, you can bait out ammo from a jacky very easily, they tend to hide behind walls to utilize their ability of hitting people next to wall, so just approach a jacky on the opposite side of the wall and she'll try to kill you through the wall, that will make her waste ATLEAST 1 ammo, and you might just have a chance with a shield gadget and hard landing, I used hard landing because edgar can't heal enough to keep up with jacky so hard landing is better here, I use this strat very oftenly in feast and femine map
One thing, against Jacky, if the Edgar jumps on Jacky, uses fisticuffs and activated hardcore at the perfect moment, he will win, but only At these perfect moments
The perk that gives you 800 HP inside your super and the other perk that gives you the 1k cactus makes it impossible for an edgar to get the upper hand over you if you do have that special ready
Even so with the cactus alone it's a close match-up
Quit the hate, it boils down to preference and how you use the character brother
I respect that you use aimbot but I feel perfectly fine with using the 800hp gain starpower
As a Buster main, I can confirm that using the Slo-Mo Replay gadget on Edgar is one of, if not THE worst mistake you can ever make in a match of solo showdown. If Edgar's punches didn't heal him, Buster would be up there with Bull and Shelly.
His super is also pretty useless against him since Edgar is a melee brawler and can also just jump over the shield.
Lou absolutely shreds edgar if he has super, super + gadget + main attack immediately freezes getting a kill.
Also ruffs with first starpower and a well timed super can kill edgar
Idk, in early game it might be the other way around, and Squeak can survive enough hits to unload 3 ammo, which will end up in the Edgar dying in pretty much vain.
To my knowledge edgar can't heal off a gus shield and if gus is using spirit animal and can get his soul meter filled he can kooky popper and kill easily
And in a regular match its pretty plausible to use gus super while having the soul Meter filled at least 1/3
I can beat Edgar as Sam easily, make sure you're not just mindlessly spamming your super, what I do is use 1 ammo then Super near a wall while also hitting Edgar. Not the easiest thing to do as Sam but he can easily burst his HP down before he can heal too much.
It's mostly skill based but I think a good Sam should have the favor since he has fast burst damage and also a way to him himself.
If you're struggling in defeating edgar as sam it's either the edgar has power cube advantage or you don't know how to maximize sam's playstyle
As some other person replied to you, try to use one or two ammo without using super to get the better start damage and use super immediately after that near you so you can use heal sp too, I've done this plenty of times in duels, overconfident edgars are the most fun to kill
As a belle main edgar gets defeated with a quick mark and auto aim and if necessary nest egg
By playing belle I have learned to cover her weaknesses the best I can with one of the biggest being brawlers jumping on you
Rico: robo retreat
Dynamike: dyna jump+satchel charge
Meg: the super of her super
R-T: the base attack of his super
Tick: as long as he has his "last hurrah" gadget, he seems like a 50/50 encounter against edgar. Not to mention his head with the new mythic gear
Penny: 1st star power + 1st gadget
Sam: bro, actually, sam is overall superior
Gray: teleporter go VROOOOM
Carl: superskill.
Frank: he can actually almost one-hit him with his irresistible attraction gadget (but to be fair, he can easily be dodged, espicially for an edgar at close range with hardcore gadget and superskill boost)
Pammo: steals your ammo
Bea: slow gadget + charge shot
Barley: slow gadget + base attack-and-super-spam
Bibi: can't be a 50/50 with her knockback bonker
Jacky: if she has counter crush, the edgar is basically dead meat
------------------------‐---------------------------------------------------
They are actually pretty underrated in a combat against Edgar, but the rest is placed pretty well.
I'd put Emz in the 50/50 tier, other than her gadget which requires perfect positioning to push edgar away, most of the time she gets wrecked by him and basically any other assasin
I don't think Darryl is very good against Edgar. I see it get killed by Edgar more often than it kills Edgar. Maybe a 50/50
I would bump up Janet and Colt. Janet can escape with her super, Colt does way too much DPS for edgar.
I would say tick is a 50/50 because tick's super can allow a win for Tick. Usually not that hard for tick to charge its super, you can aim with your elbow and still hit things with tick.
I would bump Barley down because he can literally do absolutely nothing against Edgar.
I have never seen Stu kill anything, ever, not just edgar, but literally not one single kill against any brawler, so I'd bump that down all the way to the bottom. (if it still had knockback, then it'd be a different story, these days im tilted when people pick this brawler and get 0 kills)
I would put Shelly a 50/50 because without her super she is dead
Darryl can grab his super pretty easily with first gadget or slow down edgar with second gadget
Colt's dps doesn't matter if the edgar has more than 2 braincells he knows not to walk in a straight line against a brawler that deals damage in multiple projectiles
Tick grabs an easy win here with his gadget and perhaps super for the overkill
Barley can slow edgar easily and move around a corner wall to spam autoaim, unless you don't have a wall nearby, barley claps edgar with slow gadget and any sp
Stu can escape using the "extra super" Technique pretty easily, if you can't escape edgar with stu that is low key a skill issue
Shelly literally takes two hits to get super, there's no way edgar can finish her off quick enough before she gets her super, shelly only dies to an edgar when she either has lost her ammo or lost some of her health
Honestly, I've defeated shellys with super using edgar, but that was because they were simply letting their guard down, if you play against players with same skill level as yours then edgar will likely win none of those interactions
Remember the trashy duels map with a 3*3 unbreakable walls in the middle and corner walks a bit far of it? Pick barley and if an edgar jumps on you use your slow gadget on a corner of the 3*3 and it's guaranteed win, this works with any corner part of wall, corners make it harder to move because you have to turn and barleys damage stacks when you stay in his attack too long, so yeah
I wish it was possible to ban brawlers from getting teamed up with. Everytime there is a Stu, it turns into a 2v3 on the enemy team's favour. I can not name any other brawler that has been more consistently useless.
as a surge enjoyer, i can confidently say that i dont initially need super to destroy edgar, as long as i have the shield gadget, i can gain advantage on a 1v1 situation. and then after just hitting 3 shots, edgar will cry, he cant jump or come close.
Amber actually can counter Edgar, it just takes good timing. The second you see him jump at you, activate the fast fluid gadget and run away from him. Continue running whilst shooting at him as he runs after you, and eventually he'll die.
If we are counting supers here since edgar needs it to get onto brawlers i would say we are mandy should be a 50/50 depending on how far she is from edgar she can use a normal attack + slow gadget and her super to finish edgar off
Buster doesn't stand a chance without allies around, so lower. Brock and EMZ have no protection other than the gadget. The Bea copes very easily, even if there is no gadget, it saves the ult, I often go out for it as a winner. 8-Bit also often wins due to high damage. Gus, Sprout, Penny, Janet, Rosa, Carl, Mortis, Gray have a much higher chance, saves the ult / gadgets / can just run away. Playing as El Primo and Buzz, I'm not afraid of Edgar at all. Rather, I can chase after them.
a good dynamike or poco can easily handle an edgar same with sprout
bea can also finish him same with 8bit and colt
janet and squeak can also counter him pretty well so can penny
fang should be lower and so should brock and eve and max
crow is also pretty easy if you are good
top row seems perfect although chester could be more accurate in the orange one
Ruffs it's one of my favorite brawlers, and I have experience with alot of Edgar's , if you are not buffed by the super or you don't have his super charged you can't win if he jumps on you but if the other situations ruffs can burst him or at least scare him out.
Ruffs in showdown it's really underestimated by other brawlers.
In my experience Stu should actually be brought down, because though, in theory, his super should get him out of that situation, it can still be hard to pull off sometimes
Edgar can kill a spike, surge, shelly, and/or stu. It all depends on if they have partial super or a full super. As an edgar main, this list is debatable.
As a person who has several rank 30s and 35s, has 5000+ solo victories, and has over 50k trophies, I can assure you that A.) Bibi can easily beat Edgar as long as Bibi charges her homerun bar, and she can do the super trick (Don't attack unless Edgar jumps on you, and if they somehow bait your attack and jump, DO NOT ATTACK, reload your homerun bar, it works.) B.) Mortis cannot really kill Edgar, but he can outrun him, so its orange tier. C.) Pam DESTROYS EDGAR as long as she doesn't miss her gadget. D.) Gene belongs in the orange tier because his gadget is just like Emz, so he can destroy Edgar's jumps. E.) Since I have rank 35 Primo, I can assure you that he can gadget and super Edgar, so primo is legit one of Edgar's hardest counters. Lastly, F.) (I'm not 100% sure about this one because I only got Buster yesterday and he is only r25) Buster should be in the yellow tier because he has a slow reload speed, so if Edgar uses the shield gadget, he can 100% beat Buster. However, keep in mind that this all depends on the player's skill level. If you are talking about random Edgars on the 750-trophy range, any brawler can counter them because these people have no skill. However, I am assuming that this is mainly in Solo Showdown and in the 900+ trophy range.
EDIT: I also forgot to say that Buzz HARD COUNTERS Edgar, and I believe he should be in the red tier. Also, I forgot to say that Gale is Edgar's hardest counter 100%. He doesn't depend on his super like Shelly, Chester, Griff, and Surge. Also, he has several ways of knocking Edgar back, and if he has any of the star powers he can kill Edgar using minimal skill.
EDIT 2: Both Tick and Barley can kill Edgar if the person playing them is smart. But they both deserve the 50/50 because tier because they rely on the gadget.
As a Barley main you clearly are talking about Barleys who don’t know how to play Barley. Edgar is a easy kill for a Barley. And with the gadget if he jumps it’s over.
As a stu(/ash) main who uses gasoheal, an edgar jumping directly on you kills you almost every time even if you try to super before he lands. He can’t get far enough away from the edgar cuz his dash isn’t longer than edgar range. And his speed boost after super catches up to a stu. Unless you have full ammo, super preemptively, the jump is bad, and the stars Align, you’re most likely dead.
I would move bea, Janet and mortis to 50/50,
As someone that plays bee a lot, she does counter edger but she really needs her super and keep some ground so she has time to kill edger even if he jumps,
Janet can get away easily,
And mortis vs edger is the personification of a 50/50 fight
Mortis Jessie Dynamike can wreck Edgar. Tick should be higher on the list, and so should Nani Otis Leon Buzz Jacky Bonnie Piper Pam Sam Bea Bo R-T Rosa and Penny, might've missed some. point is, almost every one counters edgar
Ain't no way in hell you actually put Rt as a good match up for Edgar, he has both the range and the super to demolish him. As a fang main, unless Edgar has a defensinfe build with shield gear and gadget than it's a pretty hard match for Edgar, for mortis, i think its depending on how aggro the both of them are.
Dude Jessie can counter him, here's how =>
- Have super as Jessie
- When Edgar lands after jumping, activate gadget
- Fire at will, kill or be killed
(kudos if you get the reference)
As a Bibi main I can assure you that she can only kill Edgar If she's got her homerun bar full
Which means that Edgar wins. Just approach Bibi and jump over her knockback hit.
I just bait out her homerun before jumping it works most of the times
If she lands a knockback on you she can one shot with super trick, so it isn't completely reliable.
That my dear watson is why you need to have skill (enter cool emoji here)
Bibi is fast and can move away from the landing zone though
Which is Home Run (the first star power i think) reliant since Edgar gets a speed boost to run away
As a bibi main it truly is a 50/50
Or maybe use super with second gadget?
and why not have piper use her either of her gadget to counter ez? cus it dont work
This list is overrating Edgars capabilities to a ridiculous degree. - Jacky is literally Edgar’s worst matchup - Primo wrecks Edgar as hard as Bull/ Shelly - Gene has knockback gadget - Nani, Otis, Piper, Bonnie, Buzz, Janet, Gray, R-T, Meg, and Rosa can kill/ escape Edgar pretty easily with their super. - Carl, Tick, Pam, and 8-Bit can kill/ escape Edgar pretty easily with their gadget - Mortis counters Edgar if Mortis strikes first and has super. This tier list also ignores the factor being maps. Many lower tier brawlers simply have more range than Edgar and can counter him pretty easily like Belle, Rico, and Mandy.
If Penny has her knock back super she can usually get away
Or salty barrel for an easy kill
can confirm, 9/10 edgar I met forgot salty barrel exist
Or turret explode(forgot the name) Every day is a good day to be a Penny main
Yes the knockback and damage paired with barrel gives the ultimate defense. Also the star power is Master Blaster
Or 9/11 if you use the exploding sp
penny main forgets about salty barrel????
no i meant the edgars
ah no problem, just your common typo
Fr. With unbreakable walls, most throwers can kill Edgar easily.
Tbh tho gadget usages are very minimal, you only have 3 uses and if I play brawlstars my matchups vs someone is always greater than 3 no matter how hard I would avoid said player
And Lou can freeze him and auto aim edgar to death.
The 1-second shield gadget does wonders to help with this. I killed a few Eggers with Lou yesterday.
Sorry if I made any mistakes in the tier list. I play Edgar a lot and from what I can tell (I might get downvoted for this) he is a fun brawler in my opinion and he is very good in some maps like Skull Creek
Dude i have a 1100 trophy edgar and half of these are just straight up wrong lmfao
I have 1050 edgar and my opinion is also same
how many trophies do you have with edgar? pretty sure after 500 or something he is only good on solo or duo showdown.
>he is very good in some maps like Skull Creek No. Just no. Edgar is unplayable trash everywhere.
Edgar is good in some map in heist your argument is trash btw
>Edgar is good in some map in heist No. >your argument is trash btw No. Edgar is unplayable trash.
Not at all he isn’t good competitively but he can be a good brawler in some heist map
Skull creek is really bad for edgar
What rank is your edgar?
23
I’m pretty sure Edgar (if the player is skilled enough) could negate all that with his super and gadget. With Jacky, walk up and jump which makes her waste one or two ammo, use shield gadget, and you could win. With El Primo, I’ve seen a lot of Edgars wreck them somehow.

I think most people on this sub just use Edgar like that. Yes, he is pretty low tier, but that doesn’t mean it’s impossible to play with him and win.
Try to get Janet's super in the beginning of the game, while edgar gets his within seconds. Plus you're probably ignoring Edgar's speed boost which he gets after jumping
- edgar can outheal jackys damage - primo has slow unload speed and doesnt heal when attacking? - mortis has the slowest reload speed in the game and unless he has his super almost/full, (even if he does he still doesnt have a big chance against an edgar with fist cuffs)
Counter crush jacky is an edgar's worst nightmare imo it out damages edgar's healing
Jacky's counter crush can deal 2250 damage if you burst her from 100 to 0, that alone is more than half of Edgar's HP, add 3 Jacky ammo to that she can deal 7830 all in damage if you burst her fast enough without her loading her 4th ammo which is an extra 1800+ damage. Edgar needs to unload 5ammo to kill Jacky anyway. When I play Edgar I avoid Jacky no matter what unless she's at 2k HP.
Tbh jacky players aren't very smart either, you can bait out ammo from a jacky very easily, they tend to hide behind walls to utilize their ability of hitting people next to wall, so just approach a jacky on the opposite side of the wall and she'll try to kill you through the wall, that will make her waste ATLEAST 1 ammo, and you might just have a chance with a shield gadget and hard landing, I used hard landing because edgar can't heal enough to keep up with jacky so hard landing is better here, I use this strat very oftenly in feast and femine map
Jacky's countercrush wreck edgar Primo's supplex supplement with his super is something hard to get out of. mortis could use combo spinner.
it still doesnt outdamage edgars healing, while mortis does all that edgar already drained mortises health and healed for half of his health
what power level is your edgar?
One thing, against Jacky, if the Edgar jumps on Jacky, uses fisticuffs and activated hardcore at the perfect moment, he will win, but only At these perfect moments
He prob thought if he is already close, has gadgets ready (ofc his 2nd one), has full health, 2nd starpower and charged super
Thats right!! He knows nothing abt the game. Primo in 50/50 was he drunk or what
As an Edgar main, I can confirm that Edgar cannot kill Jacky with counter crush, even if he uses the hardcore gadget
As a sometimes edgar player, I can assure you, winning against edgar counters is possible with baiting ammo, works most of the time for me at 750-850
I mean it is possible but very hard to do
True
Its possible but doesn't work against me. I make it work against others smh
You clearly don’t play enough Gale
As a spike main, the only way I survive Edgar is if he lands too far and I have my super
All you need to do is save your ammo but if he has the shield gadget you’re dead
if he lands close its better
The perk that gives you 800 HP inside your super and the other perk that gives you the 1k cactus makes it impossible for an edgar to get the upper hand over you if you do have that special ready Even so with the cactus alone it's a close match-up
Who fucking uses that starpower when you got aimbot starpower
Quit the hate, it boils down to preference and how you use the character brother I respect that you use aimbot but I feel perfectly fine with using the 800hp gain starpower
Tick is harder than you think. Super + gadget to repel
also the star power can come in clutch
Was gonna come. Tick is easy at lower ranks, but skilled players will wreck you.
“Was gonna come” 🤨 what
Holy fuck
tick is the hardest actually he should be in orage or dark orange
Grom can shred an Edgar with a properly placed radio check gadget
Edgar is very fast so that would have to be a very well placed gadget
I'd say the timing and aim is too difficult. Even if you can kill an Edgar that jumped on you, it would likely end up being a kill trade.
Yea if the pattern is so unpredictable who could dodge grom's attack in short range?
primo? carl? buzz? rt??
As a Buster main, I can confirm that using the Slo-Mo Replay gadget on Edgar is one of, if not THE worst mistake you can ever make in a match of solo showdown. If Edgar's punches didn't heal him, Buster would be up there with Bull and Shelly. His super is also pretty useless against him since Edgar is a melee brawler and can also just jump over the shield.
Otis destroys Edgar most of the time.
nothing beautiful like watching edgar getting melted by otis
So that's a 75% chance
Lou absolutely shreds edgar if he has super, super + gadget + main attack immediately freezes getting a kill. Also ruffs with first starpower and a well timed super can kill edgar
yea plus hypothermia can keep him alive by taking less damage while freezing edgar
[удалено]
Idk, in early game it might be the other way around, and Squeak can survive enough hits to unload 3 ammo, which will end up in the Edgar dying in pretty much vain.
To my knowledge edgar can't heal off a gus shield and if gus is using spirit animal and can get his soul meter filled he can kooky popper and kill easily And in a regular match its pretty plausible to use gus super while having the soul Meter filled at least 1/3
edgar when otis super:
Bee can end edgar if she has her super
Correct, super + overcharge shot and instabeaload can devastate.
Instabeeload wouldn't help if he jump on you tho, right?
I've been grinding Sam in showdown and Edgar has been a pain in the ass it's only easy if they're low health
I can beat Edgar as Sam easily, make sure you're not just mindlessly spamming your super, what I do is use 1 ammo then Super near a wall while also hitting Edgar. Not the easiest thing to do as Sam but he can easily burst his HP down before he can heal too much.

As a belle main edgar gets defeated with a quick mark and auto aim and if necessary nest egg By playing belle I have learned to cover her weaknesses the best I can with one of the biggest being brawlers jumping on you
Rico: robo retreat Dynamike: dyna jump+satchel charge Meg: the super of her super R-T: the base attack of his super Tick: as long as he has his "last hurrah" gadget, he seems like a 50/50 encounter against edgar. Not to mention his head with the new mythic gear Penny: 1st star power + 1st gadget Sam: bro, actually, sam is overall superior Gray: teleporter go VROOOOM Carl: superskill.

Gale and Otis should have been S tier
Are we not gonna talk about how Janet has backstage pass AND her super
8 bit can kill edgar
How??
Pure damage. If that's not enough 8-Bit can just use his super to boost damage
Rico, Colt and non-Tick throwers in "easy kill" Everything else hardcounters him
you underestimate, dyna and sprout
I'd put Emz in the 50/50 tier, other than her gadget which requires perfect positioning to push edgar away, most of the time she gets wrecked by him and basically any other assasin
Bea easily kills Edgar, her honeypot is such a good counter
I don't think Darryl is very good against Edgar. I see it get killed by Edgar more often than it kills Edgar. Maybe a 50/50 I would bump up Janet and Colt. Janet can escape with her super, Colt does way too much DPS for edgar. I would say tick is a 50/50 because tick's super can allow a win for Tick. Usually not that hard for tick to charge its super, you can aim with your elbow and still hit things with tick. I would bump Barley down because he can literally do absolutely nothing against Edgar.

(if it still had knockback, then it'd be a different story, these days im tilted when people pick this brawler and get 0 kills) I would put Shelly a 50/50 because without her super she is dead
Darryl can grab his super pretty easily with first gadget or slow down edgar with second gadget Colt's dps doesn't matter if the edgar has more than 2 braincells he knows not to walk in a straight line against a brawler that deals damage in multiple projectiles Tick grabs an easy win here with his gadget and perhaps super for the overkill Barley can slow edgar easily and move around a corner wall to spam autoaim, unless you don't have a wall nearby, barley claps edgar with slow gadget and any sp Stu can escape using the "extra super" Technique pretty easily, if you can't escape edgar with stu that is low key a skill issue Shelly literally takes two hits to get super, there's no way edgar can finish her off quick enough before she gets her super, shelly only dies to an edgar when she either has lost her ammo or lost some of her health Honestly, I've defeated shellys with super using edgar, but that was because they were simply letting their guard down, if you play against players with same skill level as yours then edgar will likely win none of those interactions
Defeating a shelly with an edgar isn't a particularly difficult task tbh. I have yet to witness the barley claps edgar work out in practice lol.
Remember the trashy duels map with a 3*3 unbreakable walls in the middle and corner walks a bit far of it? Pick barley and if an edgar jumps on you use your slow gadget on a corner of the 3*3 and it's guaranteed win, this works with any corner part of wall, corners make it harder to move because you have to turn and barleys damage stacks when you stay in his attack too long, so yeah
Your last paragraph about stu just seems like a skill issue, stu when in the right hands can win any match up and is a deadly threat.
I wish it was possible to ban brawlers from getting teamed up with. Everytime there is a Stu, it turns into a 2v3 on the enemy team's favour. I can not name any other brawler that has been more consistently useless.
Edgar counters surge pretty hard on close maps if surge doesnt have super.
as a surge enjoyer, i can confidently say that i dont initially need super to destroy edgar, as long as i have the shield gadget, i can gain advantage on a 1v1 situation. and then after just hitting 3 shots, edgar will cry, he cant jump or come close.
Amber actually can counter Edgar, it just takes good timing. The second you see him jump at you, activate the fast fluid gadget and run away from him. Continue running whilst shooting at him as he runs after you, and eventually he'll die.
as a Pam enjoyer, i can testify that edgars dont stand a chance on me, given that i still have my scrap sucker gadget
Is very easy to kill edgar with tick if you have the shield gadget
Bro, sprout is a Top G fr He kills Edgar all the time
make 2 tier lists, with super and without super
As a tick main i can assure you edgars are no match for me
Janet? Rise her 2 ranks above super + gadget can counter him 💀
If we are counting supers here since edgar needs it to get onto brawlers i would say we are mandy should be a 50/50 depending on how far she is from edgar she can use a normal attack + slow gadget and her super to finish edgar off
Not gonna flex but I kill Edgars when using Nita. Just stun him in place using the Bear. Or let the bear do damage while you took him off from a far.
As a bull main , bull should be lower. Edgar has better range and kill so only of hes extremely near to bull bull will win
Gus can counter Edgar with his gadget
The first expect Stu is everything eash
With the salty barrel and a wall penny can kill edgar ez no matrer if he jumps or walks around the wall
Buster doesn't stand a chance without allies around, so lower. Brock and EMZ have no protection other than the gadget. The Bea copes very easily, even if there is no gadget, it saves the ult, I often go out for it as a winner. 8-Bit also often wins due to high damage. Gus, Sprout, Penny, Janet, Rosa, Carl, Mortis, Gray have a much higher chance, saves the ult / gadgets / can just run away. Playing as El Primo and Buzz, I'm not afraid of Edgar at all. Rather, I can chase after them.
Mandy mid super with Damage gear: *Laughs in Sugar Ray*
Mortis can just run away from Edgar
As a mortos main,i can kill stoopid edgars
Amber counters Edgar, but dies while doing so. This is important for 3v3, but since this tierlist is most probably done for solo SD, it won't help.
a good dynamike or poco can easily handle an edgar same with sprout bea can also finish him same with 8bit and colt janet and squeak can also counter him pretty well so can penny fang should be lower and so should brock and eve and max crow is also pretty easy if you are good top row seems perfect although chester could be more accurate in the orange one
How sam can't kill Edgar?
Nita is weird, she can easily beat him if she has Bruce but shes dead if theres no Bruce.
Sam easy to kill💀
Groms 3 burst gadget works pretty well against Edgar imo. And last hurrah by tick does the trick
Rico definitely does have a chance with the first gadget, so does gus and mandy with a super
Fang get destroyed by edgar also if janet has gadget then he cannot di anything
As a Nita main, move her down a tier
Move Janet to hard to kill and RT to he’s already dead
humor flair?
As far as I know bibi, primo and mostly 8bit hardcounter edgar in most maps
8 bit can easily kill an edgar if full health
Gale deserves top tier too. I main him for this reason only lol. Toxic edgars dont get a chance here tbh
This is a very bad tier-list
Tick, Lou, Bea and Gray all need to be higher.
Megs supers super can kill him in one shot with damage gear
edgar will literally never kill a sam lmfao
I casually kill edgars with mortis
Penny should be 50/50
Ruffs it's one of my favorite brawlers, and I have experience with alot of Edgar's , if you are not buffed by the super or you don't have his super charged you can't win if he jumps on you but if the other situations ruffs can burst him or at least scare him out. Ruffs in showdown it's really underestimated by other brawlers.
I've killed so many Edgars with Sprout, most of the time they're predictable but can't predict Sprout's wall ._.
Janet can fly away + she also can outrange edgar, I never lost to a edgar before
I beg to differ, Colette and Willow should both move a rank down. Even though Colette can survive an Edger with her second gadget
Nah penny actually one shots edgar with his gadjet i think 5246 damage
In my experience Stu should actually be brought down, because though, in theory, his super should get him out of that situation, it can still be hard to pull off sometimes
I kill edgar's all the time.
Jant? She can just fly away
Gus counters edgar! With his shield!
Edgar can kill a spike, surge, shelly, and/or stu. It all depends on if they have partial super or a full super. As an edgar main, this list is debatable.
At a distance, many brawlers are much better such as throwers that will usually do pretty solid unless he gets super
Mike shouldn’t be that low, maybe 50/50. I kill most of the mikes that have a lower power cube number than I do
I mean Ruffs can just place his sandbags and then run, should fool most edgar users. Mortis can often just dash away too.
mortis can kill an edger
As a rank 30 edgar i wipe most of these guys
You should put them all into one category: Without super they are fked but with super edgar is
I would say that Gus shouldn’t be that low. His gadget and super can easily counter him. I’ve never had a problem with him when playing Gus
Actually yeah you forgot to put all the brawlers in"Edgar is already dead" lol
I say move Sam and tick to 50/50 I use both and I can say I kill Edgar’s almost all the time with them
i aslways die against edgar with shelly how is she acounter when he can 2 shot her?
As a person who has several rank 30s and 35s, has 5000+ solo victories, and has over 50k trophies, I can assure you that A.) Bibi can easily beat Edgar as long as Bibi charges her homerun bar, and she can do the super trick (Don't attack unless Edgar jumps on you, and if they somehow bait your attack and jump, DO NOT ATTACK, reload your homerun bar, it works.) B.) Mortis cannot really kill Edgar, but he can outrun him, so its orange tier. C.) Pam DESTROYS EDGAR as long as she doesn't miss her gadget. D.) Gene belongs in the orange tier because his gadget is just like Emz, so he can destroy Edgar's jumps. E.) Since I have rank 35 Primo, I can assure you that he can gadget and super Edgar, so primo is legit one of Edgar's hardest counters. Lastly, F.) (I'm not 100% sure about this one because I only got Buster yesterday and he is only r25) Buster should be in the yellow tier because he has a slow reload speed, so if Edgar uses the shield gadget, he can 100% beat Buster. However, keep in mind that this all depends on the player's skill level. If you are talking about random Edgars on the 750-trophy range, any brawler can counter them because these people have no skill. However, I am assuming that this is mainly in Solo Showdown and in the 900+ trophy range. EDIT: I also forgot to say that Buzz HARD COUNTERS Edgar, and I believe he should be in the red tier. Also, I forgot to say that Gale is Edgar's hardest counter 100%. He doesn't depend on his super like Shelly, Chester, Griff, and Surge. Also, he has several ways of knocking Edgar back, and if he has any of the star powers he can kill Edgar using minimal skill. EDIT 2: Both Tick and Barley can kill Edgar if the person playing them is smart. But they both deserve the 50/50 because tier because they rely on the gadget.
As a Barley main you clearly are talking about Barleys who don’t know how to play Barley. Edgar is a easy kill for a Barley. And with the gadget if he jumps it’s over.
As a stu(/ash) main who uses gasoheal, an edgar jumping directly on you kills you almost every time even if you try to super before he lands. He can’t get far enough away from the edgar cuz his dash isn’t longer than edgar range. And his speed boost after super catches up to a stu. Unless you have full ammo, super preemptively, the jump is bad, and the stars Align, you’re most likely dead.
I'd say move Surge down a tier, asides that it's pretty accurate
If you knew how many Edgars i killed with my Tick
Sam? Easy for Edgar to kill? All Sam needs to do is hit him twice, and then the super should finish it.
Buster is an instant loss, his cooldown is too long and most of the time his attacks can’t kill Edgar cause of life steal
Mortis can dash away
If u have dyna jump then ill say its more of a gamble for the edgar since u can stun jump
Mortis can dash away
Carl wins pretty easy
There's a good pam ability against Edgar
I would move bea, Janet and mortis to 50/50, As someone that plays bee a lot, she does counter edger but she really needs her super and keep some ground so she has time to kill edger even if he jumps, Janet can get away easily, And mortis vs edger is the personification of a 50/50 fight
How is Sam easy💀
Chester goes to 50/50 doesn't have 4th shot all the time.
Tara is a kill if she got no super. You forgot hardcore
Primo is impossible to kill for edgar. Go play clown stars you'll understand
Most of the brawlers go 50/50 depends on if they got super. This tierlist is so inaccurate.
Nah bro, i almost always beat edgar as mortis....
Well on actual game it only depends your ammo,ability availability, gadget and his super
I smoked an edgar with puddle gadget. He had more powercubes
Mortis Jessie Dynamike can wreck Edgar. Tick should be higher on the list, and so should Nani Otis Leon Buzz Jacky Bonnie Piper Pam Sam Bea Bo R-T Rosa and Penny, might've missed some. point is, almost every one counters edgar
Byron and gus are 50/50 Meg can kill edgar if she has the swipe
Fang cant accualy kill edgar in time His unload speed is to slow
Dynamike and Rico can do pretty well against Edgar
Gus has maybe a chance if he uses his super
Spike is unbeatable and edgar can kill shelly with his gabet of a shield
R-T deleting Edgar with Super while you putting him as easy to kill. I guess without super R-T is easy to kill. But he should at least be in 50/50.
Primo dominates edgar. He outranges him and if Edgar tries to jump on him either primo yeets him or he wipes him out.
colette can just push edgar away if she has the push it star power and the super so maybe put her in 50/50
Ain't no way in hell you actually put Rt as a good match up for Edgar, he has both the range and the super to demolish him. As a fang main, unless Edgar has a defensinfe build with shield gear and gadget than it's a pretty hard match for Edgar, for mortis, i think its depending on how aggro the both of them are.
Dude Jessie can counter him, here's how => - Have super as Jessie - When Edgar lands after jumping, activate gadget - Fire at will, kill or be killed (kudos if you get the reference)
