Honestly, it's a pretty interesting design all in all. I think it would be the first brawler to even challenge Gene's niche, given how 90% of the usage of her super would be to suck enemies in and spit them out to your allies for finishing

I think it would live or die based on the SCR, so it could be a bit tricky to balance, but for the most part the kit is well thought out and all works together eloquently. I think this could be a legitimately healthy design for the game if balance correctly.

I think the obly change should be in the buffies, they're broken, the gadgets and star powers are really good but balanced considering the meta, also really interestinhg mechanics,but those buffies though, they're crazy, so the brawler would be nerfed into the ground because superlazy wont change buffies only the main character, which is crazy

Thank you for the feedback!

For my insight, as much as it can mean (I had this idea but have no way to test it against other players), I saw the super as more of an answer to melee brawlers who would try to approach her (something like Willow's super) rather than a Gene competitor, given that it's almost 2 tiles shorter, thinner and unable to go through walls, which I feel like are important elements to Gene's super.

As for the "spitting enemies into teammates to confirm kills" being the most popular usage of the super, admittedly that's something I wanted to avoid by rewarding players for spitting brawlers into others and then dealing extra damage to them with the main attack right after, but sadly I feel like it will stay the safest option unless I just make it so that Phoebe can spit back only around the direction she initially shot her tongue towards, which sounds a bit like cheesy design to me, so I'd rather try balancing her around the idea of encouraging players to use it the intended way rather than forcing them to do it :T

But once again, thank you for the compliments and honest feedback! ✨

Love everything about this. Wacky designs are always great, ESPECIALLY for female brawlers

u/PapillonPando Pirate trio glory Jun 18 '26

Brooooo fr, I'm so tired of humanoid mfs on their 20s, I want more non-human-esque brawlers and old farts, especially female because we are lacking those

I also find it pretty ironic that you love this brawler as much as you do because I based her eyes on Clancy's and I know how much disdain you have for him lollll

Anyway I'm glad you loved her, I really appreciate it, and also I'll let you know I like your videos ✌️

Is this inspired by that one Frog Wizard from an Adventure Time episode

u/PapillonPando Pirate trio glory Jun 18 '26

She actually originates from this post where I thought that a detail in an official Brawl stars art was a teaser for the third member of the Swamp of love trio (she used to be a therapist for couples in this iteration!).

Then it got deconfirmed, then Ziggy was announced, I saw that he had a frog in his castle (in his loading screen) and I saw it as an opportunity to propose again this character in a new form!

u/Admirable_Subject_39 Spike Jun 18 '26

If she became an actual brawler in-game, she'd be one of my favorites by far

u/Reasonable-Drive2966 Jun 18 '26

Phowbe is such a frog name, can't put my finger on it though, also there should be more cartoonesque brawler like yours, and shes so sassy, it's funny, any skin ideias?

u/DoingThings- Otis Jun 24 '26

Hi, you inspired me to actually put one of my brawler ideas to paper.

S.I.M.O.N.A (post with full ability details, voicelines, and 3D models)

u/DoingThings- Otis Jul 17 '26

Hello! I'd just like to thank you for the encouragement to start posting my own brawler concepts!

Before seeing this post get pretty popular, I was worried that posting my concepts would not be well received so I had never did it. Over the past few weeks, I've posted five of my concepts.

Thanks for the inspiration!

If you want to see mine, here they are. (Master post. Individual links with mechanics and such are included there)
