All New Characters in Squad Busters
Ice Wizard
Ice Wizard is a powerful character who can cast a Super Freeze Spell, which is a larger and longer-lasting version of the regular Freeze Spell. This ability can be incredibly useful in battles, allowing players to immobilize their enemies for an extended period.
In his Classic form, Ice Wizard attacks foes with frosty ice balls that spread out in a cone after the fourth hit, making him effective at dealing with multiple enemies at once.
Dr. T
Dr. T is another exciting addition to the Squad Busters roster. His unique ability allows him to summon a Mega Crab after collecting enough Coins.
The Mega Crab is a powerful ally that pursues other Squads while ignoring normal Monsters, making it a valuable asset in battles.
Jessie and Her Pet Turret
Jessie is a character that comes with a unique companion – her pet Turret. The Turret appears after opening a Chest, providing Jessie with additional firepower and support in battles.
In her Super form, Jessie can drop a Turret Spell, allowing players to place her Turret, Scrappy, wherever they want on the map. This ability can be used strategically to control key areas or provide cover for your Squad.
Bandit
Bandit is a character that will be available through a special event in July. Her abilities revolve around Gems, making her a valuable asset for players looking to boost their gem collection. When Bandit emerges from a Chest, she provides players with a bunch of Gems.
In her Classic form, Bandit adds a Gem when busting large Monsters, while her Super and Ultra forms increase the loot even further.
