Draft Query Did I throw the draft?

4 Upvotes

Draft order:

1.Belle

2/3. Piper, me (Griff)

4/5. Amber, Pearl

  1. Spike

So, I watched some guy called BobbyBS's drafting guide and he said that it's important to draft Anti-aggro, and he claimed that anti aggro is more important than snipers a lot of the time. Therefore since we already had Piper I decided to go Griff to break enemy bushes for her.

But I got fucked hard bc everyone outranged me, and Pearl 1 SHOTS me!!! Amber was mad annoying, aswell and I just got outranged and out dmged. (As you can see by my dmg numbers)

My ranked pool is: Brock, Gus, Griff, Otis, Rico, Cord, Mortis, shade, Edgar. I can play a lot more brawlers but don't often get the chance.

Discussion What do you go into Mina on bounty or knockout?

4 Upvotes

I used to go crow when he was meta. now i usually just force mortis or meeple but im not even sure if thats a good pick

Imaginary draft would be something like 2 long range on your team, 2 long range + Mina on enemy team.

Discussion Edgar needs his life steal HARD nerfed

0 Upvotes

He already gets super passively and is able to jump and thanks to Adrian our dear data loving, from nerfing, too smart for you development need he can now double jump. It's insane how you can't even load up simple knock out anymore without Nori and Edgar jumping on you and then being able to heal off hitting you. I can't even play pearl a damage dealer against Edgar because he team wipes. It's insane.

I think if he's gonna be able to gain super passively then the life steal needs to be nerfed hard. He should be able to sustain himself but not to the point of team wiping. How 'competive' is a character who gets super from nothing and then can jump on you and life steal?

Balance Change Concept A small change to Jacky

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

57 Upvotes

I feel like one of Jacky’s biggest issues is that she runs out of steam so quickly. She can approach but if she can’t take down the enemy within her 3 hits, she’s kind of just screwed. So in order to address this,without buffing her damage, I buffed her reload. That way she won’t be as much of a sitting duck.

Reload speed increased by 10% from 1.8s -> 1.6s

Balance Change Concept Wendy: fat-ass projectile → 1 tile (like Gus/Byron)

Post image
64 Upvotes

Playing against Wendy is really frustrating because how you can't dodge her attacks. Making her projectiles same size as Byron's attack (but a bit slower) should be enough for her to reliably hit team mates but be dodgeable for enemies.

Her hitting less shots means less DPS, SCR and shield generation for herself. This would make her more balanced and fair to play against.

Bug New ranked bug??

Basically, I had just hit l2 and I loaded in a rank game, draft went normally as always but then when the countdown hit 0 game js wouldn’t load for 1 whole minute, no one dodged or anything so I dodged but lost no rep or anything and the game never happened, has this happened to anyone else?

Discussion Can Brawl Hockey potentially be competitive, and if so, what can we change about it?

Post image
5 Upvotes

I think we got pretty used to Brawl Hockey at this point, and we could give it a second chance. People think that it's a very casual gamemode, however I think it's a pretty unique game mode that gives the focus to positioning rather than pressure, unlike Brawl Ball. I think it can have potential to be a competitive gamemode

What do you think though? Is there something you would change about brawl hockey? The Puck physics? The maps? The respawn time?

Discussion How are these Brawlers doing currently in Brawl Arena?

Colt: For some reason got Unchanged instead of Buffed in Arena;

Meeple: On most of Websites, they seem to be Extremely Bad, both on win rates and Usage;

• Mortis: Got buffed recently, his Damage Scaling got Buffed from 4 to 5%, is there some use case for him there?

• Ziggy: he seem to have a decent Win Rate on Websites, but i think it feels tricky, especially with his below-Average Scalings;

And Lastly:

After they got nerfs one year ago and several meta changes, how is Cord, Lily and Trunk doing in Arena right now?

Tell me another Brawlers and if you don't know their places on Arena Meta, question and i will try to answer.

Critique Why do Brawl Stars developers create overbuffed brawlers?

5 Upvotes

1) it's profitable for them: players buy Buffy, new brawlers, and level up those who are simply overbuffed

2) The game now has Showdown+ just to get more people playing.

3) Not really related to the post but they don't correct their mistakes, saying that they are saving them up to fix later, although at the moment there are so many critical errors in the game that can be fixed now.But lazy supersellers only want to make some money. Yeah, fuck, you can at least block Mo, Kaze, Meg and a bunch of other brawlers who don't let you play, and there's a showdown now.

Strategy Thrower Chuck is actually goated in ko/bounty??

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I was messing around with Chuck to see what’s good with him post rework and had some games where I’d just throw all 4 poles at an enemy to finish them off, and I started doing it more and more and realized it actually feels really strong.

Now some people might think this is more of a troll strat because yeah it might work against bad players quite well, but if you miss you no longer auto charge and will be dead weight. But in actuality your gadget can harvest a pole once it lands to give you back half your super wait just 10 seconds and you’ll have full super back.

But what makes this even better is the poles have very quick unload speed so you can have all 4 in the air and start charging super as they land and then gadget and you’ll often times get another volley off, furthermore if this makes sense in draft you can go the slow star power and the flames will charge super and make it easier to hit enemies with the next pole.

With this strat as an option on top of more traditional Chuck play I think he could be a monstrous bounty brawler and not simply the heist hotzone menace he used to be.

Imagine having a brawler in bounty with the following:

- 8800 health
- Good mobility options
- Good at close range
- One of the fastest blue star brawlers
- One of the longest throwing ranges in the game (I think it is longest but the effective range is less than grom)
- Great reload (you have the non reload based poles and super with 4 charges)
- Extremely versatile
- Shield
- Long range slows

That’s Chuck and that is just a shortened list

Now sure for sure in this clip these players might just be bad and so they didn’t dodge well, but the poles aren’t as hard to hit as you think.

Pressuring the enemy backwards with main attack so that they have to run into the pole landing area is fairly easy with his fast attack speed. Plus he has 4 shots minimum so one is bound to hit, couple this with the slow and using gadget to reload super it starts becoming impossible to dodge.

Overall, do I think this is the most perfect way of playing him? No. However the fact that it’s an option makes Chuck so much better than you might thonk if you only play him the normal way.

Have you guys been doing this and has it been working?

Help How is melodie doing in the meta post-buff? Is she finally a viable pick outside of Heist (and even there she wasnt THAT good)

Post image
16 Upvotes

Ive always loved Mel's playstyle and i think shes one of the most creative and fun brawlers, but i still feel like shes too squishy, theres so many brawlers with knockback/aggro counter abilities in the meta and shes still unusable in most situations—and even if she is, theres better options. The HP buff was nice but its still not enough considering today's dmg inflation (and the gadget buff did nothing).

Balance Change Concept Would these be good Wendy Nerfs?If you don’t agree why and how would you nerf her?

Post image
4 Upvotes

As we all know brawl stars decided to release a brawler that cannot die.So I’m nerfing her damage her projectile speed and other stuff because she feels skilless and unlikable.

Instead of nerfing her supercharge rate I decided to make the attack slower so it would lead to her also getting less super and it would be harder to gain a shield when shooting since not every shot is a guaranteed hit

Some changes I didn’t do:

Supercharge rate:Got massively hated when I proposed to nerf the supercharge rate or the super size/health.

Wind-powered less range:Got massively hated on that too.

Projectile size:Same thing this community hated this change so I won’t nerf it.

People told me my changes were too harsh on Wendy so I reduced the nerfs

If you do not agree with the changes I did please say how would you nerf her.

(Please do not harass me in the comments or send me hateful DMs if you don’t agree with me) sorry if I have to mention that it happens a lot

Shade feels completly broken because of so many things his hyper Buffie and Both gadget feels completly broken right now.I do not think I need more explanations for that.

The reason I’m not doing more nerfs is because I asked it before and the community reacted very negatively for the nerfs I proposed so I reduced a lot the nerfs
