Bull is a {{Rarity|Common}} [[Brawler]] who is unlocked as a [[Trophy]] Road reward upon reaching 250 Trophies. Similar to [[Shelly]], he wields a shotgun. Bull has high amounts of health and excels at short-range combat. These attributes make him great at ambushing and overwhelming enemy Brawlers. His Super allows him to charge forward, damaging enemies and destroying obstacles in his way. His first Star Power, '''Berserker''', allows him to double his normal reload speed when at 40% maximum health or below. His second Star Power, '''Tough Guy''', also activates when he is at 40% maximum health or below, allowing him to receive less damage from enemy attacks. His Gadget, '''T-Bone Injector''', allows him to instantly heal for 1500 health.

The range of Bull's attack is much shorter than [[Shelly]]'s, but Bull's shells deal much more damage. His attack is more effective at close range since more of the shells are more likely to hit the opponent.

One downside for this is his large footprint, so it is a bit easier for Bull to get hit.

"Bull deals massive damage up close with his shotgun. For his Super move, he charges through barriers and knocks back enemies!"
Bull Portrait

Bull is a Common Brawler who is unlocked as a Trophy Road reward upon reaching 250 Trophies. Like Shelly, he wields a shotgun. Bull has a high amount of hitpoints and excels at short-range combat. These attributes make him great at ambushing and overwhelming enemy Brawlers. His Super allows him to charge forward, damaging enemies and destroying obstacles in his way. Both of his Star Powers activate when he is at below 40% health and either double his reload speed or give him a shield which reduces all damage taken by 30%.

Attack: Double-Barrel

"Bull's double-barreled shotgun deals heavy damage. It has very short range, so Bull likes to get up close and personal."

Bull fires a burst of 5 shells that do a small amount of damage on their own, however, if all of Bull's shells connect onto a single target, they do a massive amount of damage. The range of Bull's attack is much shorter than Shelly's, but Bull's shells deal much more damage. The attack is more effective at close range since more of the shells are more likely to hit the opponent.

Super: Bulldozer

"Bull puts his head down and bulldozes through opponents and obstacles. He's always been headstrong!"

Bull runs a long distance in a straight line in any direction. He destroys any obstacles that he makes contact with and knocks back and deals some damage to enemies that he hits. Note that Bull can still be hit by enemies when he uses Bulldozer. If his final destination is in the middle of a lake, his charging distance increases to the closest piece of land. If he receives a knockback effect like from Shelly's Super, his charge will be cancelled.

Gadget: T-Bone Injector

"Bull instantly rejuvenates himself for 1500 health."

When Bull's Gadget is used, he instantly heals for 1500 health. The effect, however, also stops the normal healing process.

Star Powers

Berserker

"When Bull falls below 40% health, his reload speed doubles!"

If Bull's health is less than 40% of its maximum, he turns red and his ammunition will begin to reload at double the normal rate. The effect is lost if Bull heals back above 40% health.

Tough Guy

"When Bull falls below 40% health, he gains a shield that reduces all damage he takes by 30%."

If Bull's health is less than 40% of its maximum, he gains a shield that is identical-looking to Rosa and Darryl's, and he receives 30% less of all damage, including poison. The effect is lost if Bull heals back above 40% health.
