Wrecker, Tracer, Tanker, N.O.O.B or Trickster, which one do you favor? Here are some Class builds for you to try for each!

Let’s take a look, and remember: get creative with these, we’d love to see the alterations you all make to make these builds your own!

N.O.O.B.
The Nimble Newbie
The Nimble Newbie wants nothing more than to learn the ropes; while leaving everyone in the dust, that is! This build focuses on passing by, or through, enemies, as well as getting to some hard-to-reach places. It also includes some extra health and the ability to jump back into the game faster if you’re knocked out!
Foundation Perks
- Fun Loving – Your vibe energy regenerates faster
- Quick Comeback -Respawn from knockouts dramatically faster
- Health Buff – +30 Health
Power Perks
- Ghost ‘N’ Go – Lightfoot lets you pass through other Blanko
- Reinvigorated – Reduce boost’s cooldown by 5 seconds
- Spin-Up – Gain increased height from jumping when using Twirl
The Lethal Learner
Equipped with recovery perks, additional health, and a deadly twirl, the Lethal Learner is as stubborn as they come! I wouldn’t dare call them a novice, because even though they’re still learning, they know just enough to dish out more damage and swoop up every vibe they see.
Foundation Perks
- Quick Comeback – Respawn from knockouts dramatically faster
- Bounceback – Recover from being stunned twice as fast
- Health Buff – +30 Health
Power Perks
- Suresteppin’ – Reduce knockback while boosted
- Vibe Funnel – Twirl lets you collect vibes from further away
- Heavy-Handed – Twirl deals an additional 25 damage, but takes longer to recharge
Trickster
The Quick Fix
The Quick Fix is there for when you need speed in a pinch! They may not be mainstream like the others, but with an extra dash, +25 energy, and a 50% chance to survive lethal damage, I’d steer clear and let this roadrunner do their thing.
Foundation Perks
- Ampli-Vibe – +25 energy
- Cheat Death – 50% chance to survive lethal damage once every 60 seconds
- Steppin’ Up – Jump farther while running
Power Perks
- Battery Pack – Your dash has an extra charge
- Swift Shield – After dashing, gain a 50 health bubble shield for 1.5 seconds
- Cut and Run – Whenever you take damage, regain a dash charge
The Bubble Brawler
Be they soapy or… gummy(?), the Bubble Brawler knows a thing or two about a thing or two! This build is all about blowing bubbles, taking names, and zero apologizing. Equipped with a bubble shield upon spawning, gaining a bubble shield after every dash, and perks that make their gum traps more powerful, you’ll wish you were relaxing in Hype Park popping bubbles!
Foundation Perks
- Invigorate – Spawn with a 50 health bubble shield that lasts 15 seconds
- Quick Comeback – Respawn from knockouts dramatically faster
- Cheat Death – 50% chance to survive lethal damage once every 60 seconds
Power Perks

Wrecker
The Trailblazer
Ah, the Trailblazer – the only class I know that can run so fast they set the ground beneath them ablaze! Equipped with faster vibe energy regeneration, a 5 second shorter cooldown on their boost, and starting the party with a full boost charge, they’ll be at the finish line faster than you can say “Hey, why do I smell burning?”.
Foundation Perks

- Quick Comeback – Respawn from knockouts dramatically faster
- Knock Block – Knockback resistance
Power Perks
- Reinvigorated – Reduce boost’s cooldown by 5 seconds

- Hot Steppin’ – Your boost leaves behind a trail of fire that damages enemies
The Bombshell
If you catch yourself toe-to-toe with the Bombshell, it’s already too late. The Bombshell is equipped with perks to more lethalize their Dunk, more health, and they respawn much quicker! So if you think it’s over once they’re out of the picture, you should probably turn around…
Foundation Perks
- Fun Loving – Your vibe energy regenerates faster
- Quick Comeback – Respawn from knockouts dramatically faster
- Health Buff – +30 Health
Power Perks
- Bass Drop – Dunk deals 15 additional damage
- Drop and Cover – Gain a 15 health bubble shield for 15 seconds after you Dunk

Tanker
The Hidden Hare
“What?! I thought the Tanker was a slow tortoise!”, I hear you saying. And while you may think that, there’s actually a speedy hare inside each and every one of us, the Hidden Hare was just the only one to realize it! Equipped with perks that raise their top speed, lower vibe consumption when running, and a 5 second boost when they eliminate an enemy, maybe slow and steady does win the race after all…
Foundation Perks
- Eco-Vibe – Your basic run costs 33% less energy per second
- Vibe KO – Regain 50 energy whenever you knockout a Blanko
- Juggernaut – Increased run top speed
Power Perks
- Tripwire – Your traps deal +20 damage
- Duck and Run – Gain a speed boost when your activated bubble shield is broken
- Wide Net – Increase your traps’ trigger area
The Iron Bubble
Who said a bubble has to be fragile? Sorry Bubble Brawler, but the Iron Bubble’s durability just can’t be rivaled! Equipped with a longer-lasting shield with more health, an extra charge on their traps, and being able to see enemy nameplates from farther away, good luck sneaking up on this clad of a lad.
Foundation Perks
- Eagle-Eye – See enemy nameplates from farther away
- Vibe KO – Regain 50 energy whenever you knockout a Blanko
- Health Buff – +30 health
Power Perks
- Longer Lasting Shield – Your activated shield lasts 50% longer

Tracer
The Blur
The Blur will make you swear you’ve never seen them before, but that’s because light can only travel so fast! Equipped with an extra dash charge, +25 energy, a speed boost after swerving, and additional knockback on their dash, you’ll be thinking they’re late for one of Grandpappy’s concerts! Oh, and their favorite pastime is breaking it down at the finish line while they wait for second place.
Foundation Perks
- Ampli-Vibe – +25 energy
- Steppin’ Up – Jump farther while running
- Quick Comeback – Respawn from knockouts dramatically faster
Power Perks
- Turn and Run – Get a brief speed boost after you spin
- Mach Wave – Your dash deals additional knockback

The Bull
If you mess with the Bull, you get the horns! The Bull is the definition of a dash with a kick, and you know how dangerous running with bulls can be. Equipped with a bubble shield upon spawn, a speed boost when they KO an enemy, and perks that allow them to hit harder, more frequently, this beefed-up build will have you getting tossed around like a Blanko bean bag!
Foundation Perks
- Steppin’ Up – Jump farther while running
- Invigorated – Spawn with a 50 health bubble shield that lasts 15 seconds
- Quick Comeback – Respawn from knockouts dramatically faster

Hidden Perks
We also encourage you all to try throwing some hidden perks into the mix of these class builds. If you’re a KO’ing machine, maybe try Raze and Run on The Blur to be an even more speedy menace; or maybe Attention Hound with the Iron Bubble to regenerate your health and energy while laughing at the players who’re unable to break your defenses!
Each Blanko comes with two hidden perks that can be unlocked by leveling up your Blanko! The list of possible hidden perks are as follows:
- Payback: Explode for damage after death (30 second cooldown)
- Endurance: Speed boosts (and power ups) last longer

- Gibe and Revive: Regenerate health while taunting
