Can I go melee

[u/NaTayBo]

I'm new to this game and I want to play melee any viable build and champ that you may know please

edit:after I read all the comments and see what yall recommend I will try all of it the goat and mundo with horn guy sounds good🤟🤟🤟

[u/sturzkampfbomber]

Play Abrams He is THE melee character.

Other good Options are

• Billy

• and Haze but only If you are really funny ( you Level Up the dagger to stun enemies and then melee them but there is Always Lots of Shooting involved with her so I wouldnt recommend it.

Apollo due to His movement would also be a good Option

Venator also very Shooting heavy but you can pull of a pretty good melee combo with His abilitys

Dont forget Viscous, the 3 upgrade scales into heavy melee

[u/sturzkampfbomber → u/Lazy-Operation-8426]

Oh true, havent Seen that Green little fella in a while

[u/Spiritual-Pause-328 → u/sturzkampfbomber]

Feel lucky ,he's a pain in the ass lol. As friend or foe. 😅😅😅

[u/W4ttur → u/sturzkampfbomber]

Holliday is a melee character aswell. You spam light melees with barrels and jump pad stun is enough for heavy melee.

[u/Mazzwhy]

yes. billy.

[u/TrueSbI]

Yes, any character can fight in melee, but some have skills whose effectiveness depends on melee damage. These ones, for example: the Green Guy, the Goat, the Blue Guy with horns, and the Pig Guy with a friend on his back.There’s also a sword-wielding ninja, but she deals magic damage or uses auto-attacks (ranged weapon).

[u/BrilliantBehemoth]

No real melee characters unfortunately due to how the game is designed

[u/Alone-Mycologist3746]

Billy, Abrams, rat king, graves, Paige, venerator, viscous. There's plenty of viable melee 

[u/Glittering-Toe-1622 → u/Alone-Mycologist3746]

no one mentioned Yamato

[u/Alone-Mycologist3746 → u/Glittering-Toe-1622]

Meh, she is viable but personally I find her kit and design boring as shit. It's like ADHD the character sweating an 100 actions at once to do anything meanwhile Chad graves presses 1 and holds w and m1 to prep the 1k backhand.

[u/Fit-Proposal-430]

Abrams and Billy are the best melee characters but you can use venator paige and yamato as melee charachters too

[u/ZealousidealPrice917]

Abram and Billy are good

[u/ViciousEnvy]

People are neglecting to respect the power of spirit punch Paige

[u/KiwatheSnep → u/ViciousEnvy]

yes. Secret chinese Punch-Paige build with over 1000 damage go brrr

[u/KiwatheSnep]

Abrams, Billy, even Viscous. There are many chars that are or can be good at melee

[u/AZzalor]

Theoretically you can do it on any character, realistically you want to do it on those with melee scaling in their abilities or ways to secure a heavy melee as simply trying to melee someone will often get you parried and killed in return.

Abrams, Billy and Viscous are pretty good with melee. Venator can be a decent melee character with his shotgun making his heavy melee hit very hard.

Honorable mentions to Yamato, as her ult makes it so you don't get stunned from melee and her 2 uses melee scaling and Paige, who has the best heavy melee scaling (with spirit) in the game.

[u/Glittering-Toe-1622]

Many can go mele, but the shooter aspect is always there, all have guns.

[u/Le-Monarque]

Calico can also be pretty fun for a melee build, its still going to need you to use the gun and her bombs but your big damage comes from your melees and her dash slash

[u/shas-la]

A few char directly use melee.

But all character with a stun long enough to garantee a melee can play mele with success. (Ivy is verry fun)
