JACKY

Who is JACKY

JACKY is a brawler of Super Rare rarity, class Tank. This article summarizes their performance in the current competitive meta: best map, hardest counters, and the weekly trend of their win rate. The numbers come from top-PRO battles over the last 90 days, Bayesian-smoothed so a brawler with a small sample doesn't show a misleading percentage.

Over the 30-day window, JACKY has shown up in 826 battles with a global win rate of 75.9%. That window belongs to the figure itself and is shorter than the one feeding the rest of the page, because a win rate needs recent data so it doesn't drag along a meta that already moved on.

Across the full 90 days, JACKY has a pick rate of 0.5%. That pick rate is the share of matches where a top-PRO player chose JACKY out of every available brawler, so it works as a thermometer for how meta they are right now. It uses the long window on purpose, because a brawler's popularity shifts more slowly than their win rate.

The two figures for JACKY tell different things. The observed win rate, 75.9%, measures how often it wins in the hands of a top 200 player from its country. The discounted strength, 53.4%, estimates how often it would win against a mid-level opponent once the mix of opponents it happened to face is discounted. The first one orders the lists across the site and the second sits beside it, as context.

JACKY falls into the Super Rares, an intermediate band where the roster starts to specialize for real. The upgrade investment is a notch higher than lower rarities, but the kits usually carry a clear identity: defined draft roles, specific synergies with certain modes and a skill ceiling high enough for a PRO to put real distance between themselves and a new account piloting the same brawler.

As a Tank, the job is to absorb damage, create space and start favorable close-range fights. The tank is usually the first to commit to the mode objective, soaking enemy supers so the rest of the team can position without taking them. Defensive gears tend to outperform offensive ones, and matchups against throwers or snipers dictate when and where it's safe to commit the super.

Best maps for JACKY

The best map for JACKY is Bustling Business in Brawl Ball, with a Bayesian-adjusted win rate of 82.7% over 95 battles. That puts them above their class average in this mode, so it's worth picking JACKY when that rotation is live. A strong run on Bustling Business usually combines favorable geometry (short ranges or cover) and a mode whose objective plays into the brawler's kit.

JACKY's performance is highly map-dependent: there are 17.0 percentage points between their best and worst map. That high variance means it pays to check the rotation before locking them in, because the same brawler swings from one of the best options to a clearly unfavorable pick depending on the map.

As a second map option, JACKY also performs well on Turnover (Basket Brawl) with a 80.4% win rate, only 2.4 points off their best map. When the gap between the top two maps is this small, picking one over the other comes down to the enemy team more than the brawler itself.

Rounding out the podium, JACKY holds a 80.0% win rate on Pinball Dreams (Brawl Ball) over 113 battles. Having three competitive maps widens the rotation windows worth bringing them in for, not just their signature map.

Just above their worst result, JACKY also struggles on Parallel Plays, where their win rate sits at 67.8%. Keep this map on your radar as a second warning sign when deciding the pick.

On the opposite end, Spiraling Out (Brawl Ball) drops JACKY's win rate to 65.7%. That's the bottom tail of a 17.0-point range between their best and worst map, so if that rotation comes up during a session, consider a different brawler to avoid throwing matches.

Counters and matchups

JACKY clearly dominates the matchup against KENJI: across the 31 recorded battles for that pairing, their win rate climbs to 82.7%. If you spot KENJI on the enemy team in draft, that lane is an edge for JACKY — seek the duel out rather than avoid it.

Their second-best matchup is against BIBI, where JACKY holds a 82.4% win rate over 149 battles. Two strong favorable counters like these give JACKY real value as a targeted pick against comps that lean on those two brawlers.

Where JACKY has a clear disadvantage is against GUS: their win rate drops to 61.1% across the 59 battles recorded for that matchup. If GUS shows up on the enemy team, consider not picking JACKY or changing the game plan to avoid the shared lane, because GUS wins that exchange.

Per-brawler matchups are the smallest-sample metric on the page: for JACKY the samples range from 31 to 149 battles. Read them with the confidence that sample implies — a matchup at the low end says far less than one backed by the high one.

This section lists the matchups where JACKY performs worst and best over the last 30 days, sampled from top PRO players and smoothed with Bayesian WR to avoid noise.

Star Powers, Gadgets and Hypercharge

To get the most out of JACKY in the current meta, prioritize upgrades by synergy with their kit, not by gem cost. Star powers, gadgets and hypercharge change tiers depending on the meta, so the upgrade priority is dynamic.

As a general rule, the first profitable upgrade for JACKY is usually the star power with the highest pick rate in PRO tournaments, followed by the gadget that best fits their role (lane, support, or pick). Hypercharge, when it exists, comes last because it costs more Coins and Power Points and only triggers with a full super bar.

By game mode, JACKY performs best in Brawl Ball, with a 78.6% win rate over 1,171 battles — the mode with the most recorded sample for this brawler. That makes Brawl Ball the context where their performance is most reliable and where investing in upgrades pays off most clearly.

Beyond the immediate meta, the upgrade path for JACKY should prioritize what moves the win rate needle the most: power 11 before gears, first star power before second, primary gadget before any hypercharge. Hypercharges cost a lot of coins and power points and only activate with a full super bar, so their real priority drops toward the end of the checklist.

Weekly meta analysis

Over the last 7 days, JACKY's win rate dropped from 76.6% to 74.5%, a fall of −2.1 points versus the previous half of the window. With both halves above the sample minimum, that drop is a real signal: the meta is moving against JACKY, usually from a rotation of maps or a rising counter.

Every percentage on the JACKY page comes from real battles played by the world's top players, aggregated with statistical smoothing and recomputed every six hours.
