Brawl Stars 9+

yeah… so im an og in this game and it is amazing. I’ve been playing this game since 2017, so that is kind of crazy. It has been through some bad and some spectacular updates. So if you’re trying to find a game to solve your boredom… trust me, this is what you’re looking for. Although this game is great, I wouldn’t say i’m too big of a fan for the new update. To me—personally, the suspense of opening a brawl box and just waiting to see if you’ll get a new brawler, gadget, or super was the best part. So them taking that away, really bummed me out. However, I hope they will re-add them sometime in the future, or maybe even make something better! It’s crazy how much this game has brought me through, even though it sounds kiiiind of strange. There were some times where I just needed something to take my mind off of the stressful things going on around me, and others where I would just want to do something fun with family or friends. So me seeing how far this game has come from when they only had emz on the trophie awards, no chromatics, no gadgets, and not even any brawl pass awards, really makes me super happy! I hope this game will just get better and better with more time to come. So trust me, it is definitely something I would recommend to you, but if it’s not your cup of tea then don’t bother.

I first would like to start out this review by noting that every great game goes through a stage like this. What stage? I’ll explain. I’ve been playing brawl stars for maybe about 3-4 years now and it has been pretty much the only game I’ve stuck to. This is because unlike other mobile games it has so many great mechanics, game modes, character variants, and functionalities. It also had the aspect of being really free to play, which was crazy considering it was coming from a big company like supercell. However, after about 2 months of not playing, they’ve added quite a bit of things that shocked and saddened me. I noticed that a skin for the kit character had a big body with big breasts and more skin showed in weird places than usual. I am definitely not saying that is a bad thing, but for a mobile game played by millions of kids adding an anime looking character in a maid outfit like that seems like a way for people to want to buy it not just because it’s a skin. I also found that there was a whole lot more items to buy with actual money in the shop and even the pass was worth real money, and not gems like it used to be. I could go on, but I think you get the point. If a brawl stars developer reads this, please explain what happened to your game. I am really sad and disappointed that my once favorite game on my phone is a classic mobile game that I no longer recommend anyone gets.

The game is great and fun, but its absurd how every single time they release a brawler, its always game breaking and makes the game so much less fun, for example kit, who for some odd reason has the easiest super to hit in the entire game, 0 windup on it, 0 end lag, and if you use the super and simply spam the attack button you’re guaranteed to kill most brawlers in the game with the exception of brawlers like frank, but in any power box game mode, kit gets 200% bonuses from power cubes. In what way is that fair? Its not like the latter is any less broken either, on release charlie was broken, the twins were broken, it cannot be this difficult to actually make a character that isn’t game breaking. Are the characters even being tested?

The second complaint I have is how they nerfed f2p progression under the ruse that they really buffed it, sure, f2p players get more than they previously did, the problem being that anyone who actually pays money got buffed so much more that its not even comparable. Not only did they make the brawl pass one month, it makes it even harder for f2p players to actually complete it because they don’t have any of the brawl pass quests. Making a brawl pass + just solidifies the fact that the devs care more about the money than anything. Whats the point of buffing f2p progression when in comparison it pales to the p2w style of playing?
