How to Use Barrage Blow

Boosts Damage Dealt

Pokemon UNITE - Machamp Activating Close Combat after Unite Move

Barrage Blow is essentially a boosted combination of Close Combat and Bulk Up. This is your highest damage dealing skill and should be used early on to take advantage of the buffs it offers. Depending on your Move 2, you will either use this after Submission or use Dynamic Punch after the buff of this wears out.

Reposition Machamp to get Maximum Damage

Pokemon UNITE - Machamp Getting a Good Position Before Activating Unite Move

Once Barrage Blow is activated, do not use the second activation immediately. Instead, take advantage of the boost in stats and reposition Machamp to get a direct hit on your targets. This ensures that you miss with the power move and be left vulnerable for a counterattack

Barrage Blow Patch History
