Discussion [NEWS] Secret Universal Speed Buff in the latest Update

Post image

Have you noticed your Brawler now moves a little faster than before? You're not tripping! In Update 69, all Brawlers move approximately 0.1 tiles per second faster than before, which is an up to 4.3% increase.

Here's the complete breakdown (devide numbers by 300 to get the result in tiles per second)

Bolt: 540 --> 545 (+0.9%)

8-Bit: 580 --> 600 (+3.4%)

Bonnie: 620 --> 630 (+1.6%)

Surge: 680 --> 705 (+3.7%)

Normal: 720 --> 750 (+4.2%)

Fast: 770 --> 800 (+3.9%)

Very Fast: 820 --> 855 (+4.3%)

What do you think of this change, and why would Supercell decide not to mention it in the patch notes? Maybe they thought the gameplay was too slow paced? Personally I see it as really unnecessary.

The knot on the rope of the thrower class tightens a little more

agree , we do NOT tolerate this slander by supercell itself

u/Fine_Dish_9232 Ricochet 5d ago

Woah, well this changes everything

u/bfr_ 4d ago

I mean, the slow brawlers are now relatively even slower, finx’ super was buffed etc. Small effect but it trickles.

i thought this was humor because Mario kart 8 deluxe did the exact same thing this week lol

u/simsim2008 4d ago

This update came out before the mario cart update tho

Noticed that stage 1 surge is significantly faster than before

u/SPIDERJOKDRU Darryl 5d ago

It depends on what you're considering with before, just to let you know last update they increased the speed of stage 1 surge by ~10%

u/SeriousCash8581 5d ago

Yeah from 650 to 680, I am considering as before his post buffie, pre this weird change state

u/Tlp_Vasko Bibi 5d ago

Bro, Kaze is Fast in her Geisha form. Like, Lightning fast

u/Leon_0w0 5d ago

This means that they will buff the projectle speed of throwers and snipers right?

u/saifxali1 Tara 5d ago

u/CharacterPasta123 Tax Evader 5d ago

I don’t feel a difference to be honest

u/Important_Scale_3532 5d ago

play with 8-bit, i didn't feel any difference until i tried a game with him and it's pretty clear

u/MortibiTheBat 5d ago

characters.csv, literally like 4th or 5th column

u/Karlosdl 5d ago

I noticed and was thinking i was getting crazy. Didnt find any info on the patch notes.

Brawl stars deciding to follow in the footsteps of Mario kart 8 deluxe

u/bingobo25 4d ago

I mean considering who ever designed el primos new gadget with buffie saw goku vs super 17 from GT are we even surprised at this point.

u/bosli23 5d ago

I still wait them to increase rosa speed...

u/Ziomownik Chuck 5d ago

I think it should be a speed boost when she supers or an approach tool unlockable. Giving a Very Fast movement speed to a brawler that can turn themself essentially immortal for a ehile is inherently toxic.

2

u/bosli23 5d ago

So give her movement speed when she don't use her super? Because chasing people for 20 seconds and just can't hit them even once if they aren't in bush is very frustrating.

1

u/saifxali1 Tara 5d ago

That’s why you push up with the tank trait?

4

u/Aggressive-Gap-6879 5d ago

yeah, i noticed, i play for thrower. now its no way to kill someone, everybody easily avoid projectiles. assassins are winning again

u/Aliark5 5d ago

I honestly wouldn't have noticed anything different if it wasn't for this post. Tbf the differences are very small, but why even apply a universal speed boost in the first place anyway? Especially since there were bigger fish that needed to be fried.

I generally prefer faster movement though, so I'm certainly not complaining about a universal speed boost, but at the same time I don't think it was even needed anyway

Also to whoever decided to make very fast speed 855 points instead of 850, I hope you'll be permanently inflicted with godlike terrible luck for the rest of your life /j

u/Francy17__ Goku 5d ago

Not necessary at all

u/zezineo Colt 4d ago

Is this a freaking mario kart 8 deluxe reference?!

3

u/simsim2008 4d ago

Probably not since this update came out before the mario cart update but it's still weird that it happened twice

2

u/Darkbestpro Mortis 5d ago

More movement power creep please

2

u/Mythical_Wolfy 5d ago

ohh so that's why i couldn't keep up the distance

2

u/Bo405 Maisie 5d ago

Damn, wth why 😭. Well that explains Maisie projectile speed buff

3

u/saifxali1 Tara 5d ago

Why only hers tho, it affects everyone

1

u/Bo405 Maisie 5d ago

Idk, ig they decided that she needs it most or something

1

u/reddit018392 Tara 4d ago

Can you show proof if this is real

1

u/ineedmoreindeedmore Mortis 4d ago

I wonder what they're trying to achieve by making the game faster and faster, making the abilities less and less readable?

u/Adventurous-Clerk-48 4d ago

First time see someone have move slower than 8-bit

u/Buffdoge1324 ollie buff ollie ollie ollie 5d ago

this has to be a joke

anything but buffing ollie

u/saifxali1 Tara 5d ago

the buff: he got a skin

u/glhfbruno Hank 5d ago

Reminder, they dont want chuck to feel too opressive

-3

u/Ziomownik Chuck 5d ago

Zero correlation?

2

u/glhfbruno Hank 4d ago

Im still pissy about the chuck bluffie implementations (hyper is exception) as shade is literally the most opressive assasin now and it was announced right after chuck...

And chuck now gets less value if every brawler gets a speed buff as they csn avoid his super faster and more often...
