With the end of October upon us, the Brawl Stars team has unveiled their newest update coming early November, with the release of the new Brawl Talk which includes a big overhaul of the ranked system, 3 new brawlers, loads of new skins and more!

You can watch the Brawl Talk here:

Brief description of what was showcased in the Brawl Talk is down below.


Ranked Rework

The pick and ban phase screen has been vastly improved and now includes:

  • A vast selection of brawlers is now displayed with new filtering option, as well as a search bar that allows you to search for a specific brawler.
  • Brand new Quick Chat messages to allow better communication with teammates during the pick and ban phase.
  • You can now swap turns with teammates in the pick phase as well as suggest a brawler to be banned during the ban phase.

The preparation phase has also been refreshed and now shows your skin, provides a more efficient way to customise your loadout and send pins before the game starts.

At the end of the game, your stats will now be displayed in a more descriptive way so you can prove that you were not (or were) the bad random! As for the elo, you now gain a lot more elo on a 2-0 victory, and lose a lot less when having a close match.

Now for the minor changes we have:

  • You can now play with only Power Level 11 Brawlers.
  • Diamond and above require more maxed Brawlers than before.
  • Free Max Brawlers increased from 3 to 6.
  • Ranked is now available way further in the Trophy Road.
  • Play Again button.
  • Season Reset drops less ranks than before.
  • No teams allowed in Masters and above.
  • Tighter matchmaking from Mythic 1 and above.
  • Spectating now watches the whole best of 3 instead of a single match.

Three New Brawlers

With this new update, 3 new brawlers will be introduced to the game.

The first brawler that will come in the game in November is the Thunderfrogs, which is like 3 frogs stacked onto each other but it is 1 Brawler nonetheless! They will be the first Legendary Artillery Brawler added to the game.

  • For Brawlidays, there will be a fun advent calendar, and an improved version of Topple The Tower called "Light Up The Tree" but without any power-ups.
  • 20 player showdown gamemode with a bigger map with a mini map and bots to take down.
  • Counter Light gamemode where you have to set the lights of the enemy team base to the colors of your team by standing on top of them and whoever fills it up the most wins.

And that pretty much sums it up for this upcoming update. For a more detailed explanation on hypercharges, buffies etc., you can check out the Brawl Talk above or watch the upcoming Sneak Peek Videos from Content Creators which should be released in the next couple of days or so. Overall, this looks like a pretty nice update, and I cant wait to play and see what kind of community events they cooked up for this one, as well as take a closer look at the upcoming Advent Calendar and the Brawlidays skins which look sick!
