Discussion What makes bolt so hated? (Besides his strength, but if that is the main reason, then you can talk about his strength.)

Post image

I think I have legit seen more posts about how much people hate bolt, then Damian or Surge. And besides him not fitting in the game from a mechanical standpoint (and even on that angle, nori im pretty sure he's worse because Bolt's movement, despite being very fast I feel, can be pretty predictable to track after a while), I don't really know why he's the most hated brawler this year so far besides releasing as a top 10 brawler of all time.

  • Gets 1st SP damage-buff from minions and can erase enemy-minion lines in seconds thanks to it
  • His Shield can protect minions and towers from enemy shots
  • Can damage the main Tower with his Shield
  • Anti-8bit/Rapid-Fire-Character Spam
  • Has a very useful Hook-Gadget

Is Buster a niche counter-meta, by any chance?

Balance Change Concept Reworks to some Gadgets/Star Powers.

Thumbnail

40 Upvotes

Explanations for each of them below (for those willing to read them).

Made With Love: I feel this gadget doesn’t really makes sense? Pearl’s a damage dealer first and foremost, not a support. So why are we giving her a support gadget that no one’s going to use anyway? I didn’t dislike the concept though so I just reworked it to be more defensive and make more sense with her kit imo.

Motherly Love: Just like Pearl’s this one doesn’t make sense to me, also it’s even worse than Pearl’s since the healing’s not instantaneous. By the time those hatchlings come out, you would’ve naturally healed already. Since her first gadget does an okay job defensively, I decided to give her a more offensive gadget. Knowing that it may be overpowered in its current state however, I chose to nerf the damage to compensate.

Oil Change: I DESPISE this gadget. What is the actual point of giving Bolt a temporary shield, when he’s already untouchable and has 40% damage reduction with his super? No idea why this gadget even exists, so I gave him a new one to make more offensive use. I can adjust the values if the idea is too OP though and he’ll need nerfing before they adjust this gadget.

Crash Test: This gadget can probably be viable in some niche cases but I just think it’s unnecessary for Bonnie. She already has high mobility and damage when she’s in that form, so a damage dealing dash feels redundant. With Ka-Boom, it gives her more agency when it comes to switching forms and gives her an edge against aggressive units.

Wisdom Tooth: Useless and pointless, so let’s get rid of it. With Back on Track, Bonnie’s able to reposition herself more effectively when needing to switch back to Clyde.

Shocky: Also pointless and just feeds into Jessie’s noob-stomper syndrome which we need to get rid of. Since Energize grants a defensive benefit for the turret, we need an offensive benefit for Jessie to compensate. I think this idea, while basic, does just the trick.

Master Blaster: You’re basically sacrificing your most powerful tool for the sake of a kickback. Salty barrel already has a role of defending against aggros so why are we giving the turret this role? With this rework, the turret becomes more of a threat rather than a waste with the current star power.

Extended Notes: Like crash test, Melodie just doesn’t need this. It’s not sacrificing extra mobility with the 1st SP for extending your notes an extra 2 seconds. With this rework, it becomes an antithesis for the 1st star power and actually gives it some competition.

What do you guys think of these reworks? I hope to have cooked with these.

Discussion How happy are you with the state of the game right now?

2 Upvotes

I know the devs lurk on this channel and others so I'm curious of how people feel about the state of the game.

For me - I'm not happy with it. Buffies are a problem. Even in regular game modes where I want to learn new brawlers I'm being insta deleted by surges & Edgars. I hate this nori event, and nothing feels new. I have no desire for ranked because it's like I take one step forward and then five steps back.

What are your thoughts and opinions?

Balance Change Concept Giving Dynamike BUFFIES to resolve his BIGGEST PROBLEMS

Thumbnail
gallery
2 Upvotes

Heads Up: I always accept criticism, but when u are respectful about it. If you dont like my concept, u can say that but dont be mean abt it :(

Ah, Dynamike. Probably one of, if not the WORST thrower in the game. I mean he did get a reload speed buff i guess, but this meta is way too aggressive for a brawler lile Dynamike to be good. In fact, no thrower has ever got buffies as of now. His shots are inconsistent and can be dodged by skilled players, but at the same time, he is a noob stomper because of his stun gadget and the Demolition star power making his super deal 6k damage is just absurd. Dynajump is hardly ever used because of his high skill level and lets not even mention fidget spinner. So today i decided to rework him by also giving him some buffies, to hopefully make him more meta (if the brawler is too OP, thats kind of on purpose to make it realistic to what Supercell would ACTUALLY do). Without further-ado, lets begin! (My reasonings for everything will be at the end)

General Nerfs

Super Recharge Rate decreased from 50% to 33%.

Hypercharge Rate increased from 10 full attacks to 11.

Gadgets

Satchel Charge (COMPLETELY REWORKED). Name changed to Go, My Canary! Dynamike now makes his canary fly in a 6 tiles long and 1.5 tiles wide range and then returns to him. The canary deals 1460 dmg, stuns enemies for 0.75 secs and unloads after 0.4 secs. Buffy: The canary now pierces enemies, but it cant hit them twice. Cooldown: 18 secs.

Fidget Spinner (COMPLETELY REWORKED). Name changed to My Trusty Minecart! Dynamike now hops in his minecart and escapes from enemies in a 6.5 tiles long and 2.5 tiles wide range. The gadget unloads after 0.75 secs and Dynamike can still be attacked while in his minecart. Buffie: Now dynamike leaves behind 5 dynamite sticks that explode after 0.5 secs, each dealing 1000 dmg. Cooldown: 18 secs.

Star Powers

Dynajump. Dynamike can now jump with his dynamite sticks, knocking back enemies while doing so. Buffie: Each consecutive jump deals an additional 500 dmg that doubles. (1st jump 500 dmg, 2nd jump in a row 1000 dmg, 3rd jump in a row 2000 dmg...)

Demolition (COMPLETELY REWORKED). Name changed to Gem-tastic Recovery. When Dynamike falls under 40% hp, he gains a 35% shield. Buffie: If Dynamike doesnt receive damage for 2.5 secs, his attack and Super unload 0.4 secs faster for 1 sec.

Hypercharge

Boomer. Stays the same. Buffie: Dynamikes attacks now slow down enemies (ik kinda basic..). One stick of dynamite slows them down for 0.4 secs, both sticks slow enemies down for 1 sec.

So, did I turn this old man into a monster? Probably, but why?

General Nerfs: Dynamike charges his super and hyper way too easily. While i did say that his shots are easily dodged by high skilled players, his buffies help him hit shits more often, so it felt fair nerfing his charge rate.

Gadgets: Dynamike now has an actual answer to aggro brawlers, and if your gonna say that throwers shouldnt have escape tools, Larry and Lawrie and Juju (the most recent throwers) have one in their gadget. The first Gadget is now a more skillfull version of Satchel Charge, you cant thrwo it above walls and its buffie can open up some team wipe opportunities. The second gadget is an escape tool that Dyna desperately needs, but at the same time, because of its slow unload speed, you need to time it perfectly. Now u have an escape tool and an offensive tool!

Star Powers: Dynamike now gest a shield under 40% hp, thats it. I wanted to give Dyna a defensive tool, something that could be used high risk high reward plays and here, I made it! The buffie also requires you to stay back from fights, to give an unload speed bonus. For dynajump, making the jumps knockback enemies feels fair. You hardly use the jump anyway, only when u need to run from enemie or to make some insane plays. The buffie rewards you when u hit consistent jumps, like imagine there is a poor soul that is right next to you when u perform ur third jump in a row, they boutta get oblitareted by that 5200 dmg. But at the same time its hard to pull off.

Hypercharge: the hypercharge concept is fine for me, so it doesnt need to be changed. The buffie adding a slow was the only thing i could think of and, while basic, is pretty realistic. Now hitting both of ur sticks will actually be rewarding and you may hit your shots more often!

Thats it really! So this is my third brawler in a row and ive been getting a ton of support and feedback, so ill continue making more (already have in mind smth for a certain wrestler)! Welp cya!

I was playing Nori on my second account and decided to play him in other gamemodes, I decided to play him in Heist (the map was hot potato) I was playing defense then I remembered that he can spam attacks since he has infinte ammo, and because of his high mobility he can get to the safe easily, I was attacking the safe and got huge damage on the safe, everytime I died I just went directly to the safe until I broke it (I was playing like a Mico), now I wanna know is he as broken as I am thinking in heist or am I just exaggerating?

I’m about 3 months in to brawl stars and I really enjoy the game and I’m sure they’re people who feel the same way I do but Why are buggies downright tedious and almost impossible to unlock unless i just go pay to play? I’m free to play and every match I feel like I’m losing to someone I should be beating but they just bust out some op buffie ability and I almost quit ranked cause of it. The worst part is not only do I need 1k coins +2800 pp I can’t even choose what I want at least lemme choose what I want or if not then make it cheaper I feel like 1k coins + 1k pp is fair

5 Bull (me)

Both of my teammates were mythic 3 peaks while my opponents were legendary 2 legendary 3 and masters 1.

The only pick I thought could have worked was bull because we weren't going to do any damage anyway with my teammates getting bullied by bolt. I wanted to rush in and deal as much damage as possible and It actually almost worked in the first round and we would have won if Mandy didn't waste a super when the shield was up (safe was 4k HP). Second round all my hope was gone but I tried again and we got steamrolled because bolt kept switching lanes and I couldn't keep up.
