Lily

Who is Lily

Lily is a Legendary-rarity brawler of class Assassin. 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 14 days, Bayesian-smoothed so a brawler with a small sample doesn't show a misleading percentage.

Over the 14-day window, Lily has shown up in 6,034 battles with a global win rate of 67.2% and a pick rate of 0.7%. That pick rate is the share of matches where a top-PRO player chose Lily out of every available brawler, so it works as a thermometer for how meta they are right now.

Across the full roster, Lily's trend is among the weakest: their win rate is falling below 15% of brawlers with a measurable trend this week. That signal often foreshadows the meta turning against the brawler before it even shows in their global win rate.

Lily is a Legendary brawler, one of the most coveted rarities in the game because it blends a unique identity with low box drop chance. The kit is usually built to define entire matches: hypercharges with critical timing, supers that zone whole maps off, or gadgets that break the standard logic of the mode. In PRO tournaments they show up when the draft calls for a specific piece no other brawler can cover the same way.

As an Assassin, the pattern is aggressive burst: lean on the kit mobility to flank, eliminate a priority target and exit before the counter-attack lands. Super economy is critical because most assassins rely on it to escape after the pick. Maps with walls and blind angles amplify the playstyle; open maps punish it severely.

Best maps for Lily

The best map for Lily is Sneaky Fields in Brawl Ball, with a Bayesian-adjusted win rate of 74.4% over 95 battles. That puts them above their class average in this mode, so it's worth picking Lily when that rotation is live. A strong run on Sneaky Fields usually combines favorable geometry (short ranges or cover) and a mode whose objective plays into the brawler's kit.

Lily's performance is highly map-dependent: there are 36.1 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, Lily also performs well on Spiraling Out (Brawl Ball) with a 72.3% win rate, only 2.1 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, Lily holds a 72.2% win rate on Crab Claws (Knockout) over 200 battles. Having three competitive maps widens the rotation windows worth bringing them in for, not just their signature map.

Just above their worst result, Lily also struggles on Kaboom Canyon, where their win rate sits at 40.5%. Keep this map on your radar as a second warning sign when deciding the pick.

On the opposite end, Hello Always Ends With a Goodbye (Wipeout) drops Lily's win rate to 38.3%. That's the bottom tail of a 36.1-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

Lily clearly dominates the matchup against Shelly: across the 121 recorded battles for that pairing, their win rate climbs to 74.2%. If you spot Shelly on the enemy team in draft, that lane is an edge for Lily — seek the duel out rather than avoid it.

Their second-best matchup is against Spike, where Lily holds a 73.2% win rate over 246 battles. Two strong favorable counters like these give Lily real value as a targeted pick against comps that lean on those two brawlers.

Where Lily has a clear disadvantage is against Jessie: their win rate drops to 54.8% across the 12 battles recorded for that matchup. If Jessie shows up on the enemy team, consider not picking Lily or changing the game plan to avoid the shared lane, because Jessie wins that exchange.

Per-brawler matchups are the smallest-sample metric on the page: for Lily the samples range from 12 to 863 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 Lily performs worst and best over the last 90 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 Lily 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 Lily 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, Lily performs best in Knockout, with a 67.6% win rate over 1,773 battles — the mode with the most recorded sample for this brawler. That makes Knockout 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 Lily 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, Lily's win rate dropped from 65.5% to 55.3%, a fall of −10.2 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 Lily, usually from a rotation of maps or a rising counter.

Compared with the rest of the roster, that move leaves Lily falling below 15% of brawlers with a measurable trend this week — they're at the bottom end of those losing ground. It doesn't mean they're unplayable, but it's worth waiting for the next map rotation before prioritizing their investment.

Every percentage on the Lily page comes from sampling top PRO battles with source=global filtering and Bayesian smoothing, recomputed every six hours. If you want to understand why one map performs better than another or how a rotation affects the win rate, the methodology page covers the technical detail step by step.
