New Brawler - Stu! Stu used to be a crash test bot in Starr Park, but since the audience loved to see him crash, Stu then became a stunt driver extraordinaire with gasoline in his veins!

Stu drops a booster that makes himself and his teammates move faster inside its area of effect.
1st Star Power: Zero Drag -
Increases Stu's Super dash length
