I saw this draft in LCQ when they were against Navi in Hot Zone, and wouldnt this be one of the lowest damage comps possible, and they went on to lose it. I dont know if they had first or last pick, but​​ why would they even go for it un the first place?

Bug Why did I not chain here?

16 Upvotes

I've used Fang quite a bit and I've never experienced anything like this, why did I not chain onto the Gus or Naija? He's definitely able to bounce from a non brawler to a brawler, so there's no way that I should have just been left stranded there. I also slowed it down and it wasn't because the Max shot the snakes before I got to hit them. I was clearly ahead of Max's bullets

Critique Why is everyone so bad in Ranked?

I just came back to the game recently and been trying to get high in ranked but it’s literally impossible solo queuing. It feels like I’m playing with players purposely trying to lose the game. Am I the only one experiencing this? lol

Discussion What actually differentiates good players from bad players?

7 Upvotes

When playing games like Free fire or rainbow six mobile, I can easily understand what the better players do differently, they have better movement, aim, map sense etc etc. The point is, it is visible to me how good they are playing.

But in brawl stars even while watching LCQ I couldn't understand what they were doing so differently, it was not like they were hitting all the shots or dodging all the shots, they just played differently but I could see they are playing good, it was entertaining but I couldn't understand what they do so differently.

I can understand somethings, like matchups, but not there positioning tactics

Discussion Unpopular Opinion: Brawler Consistency Isn't as Bad as People Think

27 Upvotes

Tier list made by SpenLC.

In my opinion people are overreacting with how 'consistent' brawlers are, people are shocked to see Gene/Angelo be pushed out of the A tier and then resort to saying the meta has no consistency anymore besides Belle and blame Adrian.

However looking at it from another angle what does consistency actually mean? Are we measuring consistency from a brawlers release or, from the brawlers most recent major rework or balance change? I think both types of consistency are worth considering.

Are a lot of the A/S-tier brawlers relatively new? Yes that’s true. But that doesn’t mean the meta has no consistency. There are still brawlers that have stayed strong for months even as the meta shifts. Here are some examples starting with the recent ones and going back, to the longest-running ones:

  1. Sirius has been strong since his release around February/March. The current meta definitely favors him, arguably making him a bit toxic, but his viability isn't exclusive to this meta. He has been a good counter pick into double single shot brawlers or tanks since his release nothing new there.

  2. Gray was A/B tier for MONTHS until he fell off for like 2 meta's and then got buffed to A tier again.

  3. Emz got her buffies 11 months ago and is still A tier. Sounds pretty consistent to me.

  4. Stu has in my opinion always been consistently A-tier since buffies got introduced. (Once again 11 months ago atp)

  5. Pierce was released 11 months ago and is still meta.

  6. Mina falls into the same boat and was released 13 months ago and is still meta.

  7. Kaze IMO is B tier but in SpenLC's list has also never been outside of the A tier. Nearly 16 months consistent.

  8. Brock was pretty much always considered B-tier before buffies and is now just even more consistent.

  9. Don't have to explain Belle.

Not to mention the fact that B-tier is still good and a lot of brawlers in there have been consistent for long periods of time as well like: Kenji, Meeple, Gene, Byron, Otis, Najia, Finx, Ruffs, Colt & Mortis (since buffies 11 months ago).

Like yes the OG always consistent brawlers aren't top tier consistent anymore, but can we stop acting like there aren't still consistent brawlers in the meta? It's been 11 months+, lock in. The top of the meta has become less stable. That is fair to say. But that does not mean that consistency has vanished entirely. There are still plenty of brawlers that have stayed viable for months.

Anyway lmk what u think and if I'm wrong, just a fun little discussion I wanted to start <3

Sorry that the 2nd picture quality is bad.

The only rules I got is that if you don’t like a change explain why this buff or nerf is bad and how would you buff or nerf it instead.(Please stop sending me death threats or harassing me online if I nerfed your main it’s not personal)

If you do not understand the Amber hyper nerf I am removing all extra effects of her hyper except Bonus size

I try my best to listen to the community opinion.

All reasoning will be in the comments

Discussion What is the main difference between an assasin and a tank in this meta?

10 Upvotes

Rn assasins and tanks feel to me that they have the same roles? They both are good agianst low dps brawlers and low hp brawlers.

It feels like one has more hp then the other while the other one has more mobility but they feel almost the same?

Discussion Is it me or the meta is disgusting right now?

18 Upvotes

Please don't take my message as me being toxic; I'm genuinely asking because I want to know if I'm missing something about the game. From my perspective, the current meta seems terrible, and I'm wondering whether that's actually the case or if I'm just missing something.

I keep seeing the same six bans and the same picks over and over again. Besides being incredibly boring, it also makes the game feel almost unplayable in some matches. Sometimes it feels like your own picks barely matter, because if one team manages to pick X or Y character, the game is basically decided from the start.

So I'm genuinely curious: is the competitive state of the game actually this bad right now, or am I missing something?

Sorry for jumping back and forth sometimes I forgot what parts edgar had been pushing. Edgar was last pick and i thought we would lose with no cc to stop him from jumping(i considered going dancing flames but it seemed good I didnt) and he made some good some bad plays so im wondering if it were say a pro match what side would win?

The only consistent brawlers left in the a tier are Belle and Mina.

Everyone else has either fell off horrifically or are starting to show signs of falling off. (Cough, Cough: Gene).

I always wondered what would happen if you got a draw in one round. Why isn't there just a 4th round? I'm not too bothered by the -2 elo, but seriously, why not just have a 4th round?

Also, for anyone wondering why the draft is so wacky, I did First Pick Pearl, Chester 2nd into Pearl. My team was on drugs. I had to carry the entire time.

Draft Query Who should I have chosen?

Post image
3 Upvotes

Im the pierce, a legendary 2 peak player who is currently in mythic 3 and I deadass don’t know what I should’ve went here. I have almost all of the relevant brawlers (besides ghost station, arcade and super city trio). Gus and shade were banned, idk who else—please tell me what I did wrong and why so I can get to leg 3

I chose Pierce because I was thinking of what all of the enemies lacked, and decided they lacked range. I felt like they could’ve been able to defend against me well if I went an assassin because of their burst dps potential. I also felt like Pearl was just barely tanky enough with her starpower to be our zone time person, which encouraged my pick, but I don’t think Pearl was the best pick in general. She actually did flank around the bush side midway through the second game and bought us most of our zone time that way, other than that nobody rlly flanked.

I thought a lot about who I should’ve gone and felt like Cosmo could’ve worked—my teammate suggested me spike, but they went Pearl so I didn’t trust them. I think that was stupid and spike could’ve also worked.

Starr Nova’s super is listed as healing for 30% of damage dealt without specification to an enemy type. However it does not heal you when hitting an enemy pet or spawner. It only works when hitting an enemy brawler.

What makes this worse is that her star power, Power Level: Maximum, DOES specify it only works on enemy brawlers yet does in fact get activated by non brawler enemies.
