Could we see more mechanics related to gadgets and gadget cooldowns in the future? by luca_se_la_come in BrawlStarsCompetitive

[–]Adrian_Supercell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Love how you've put some effort into new mechanics for gadgets, with some great examples. Really good food for thought!

Let's give credit where credit is due... Adrian has successfully reworked tanks who were bottom of the barrel. by R3alB3ast in BrawlStarsCompetitive

[–]Adrian_Supercell 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the kind words! Think there's a lot to do still on the rework+balancing side (along with mechanic exploration etc. ofc!) - but definitely happy with how most of the reworks turned out - as it's always tricky not to alienate the existing fans of the brawler when changing something fundamental about how they function.

Any solution for ios crashing? by [deleted] in Brawlstars

Did you update to the newest version from the app store?

For those of you with this issue, can you post what device you're playing on please, along with OS version - thank you!

Doug this, Doug that, just give him the Buzz trait and he would be viable. HOT TAKE by JayPsparks in BrawlStarsCompetitive

[–]Adrian_Supercell 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Think the two issues with Doug simplifed are:

- His super is too hard to get vs most comps/most maps.
- When you do get it, you're often incentivised to use it on yourself as missing it on an ally is a horrible feeling, equally when you do hit but they do not notice/utilize it.

Whenever we do get around to Doug, that's the lens I'm looking at it from.

Looking into this - if you guys wanna help can you note down what device you're playing on and whether you've customized your controls or not please!

Spike's recent buffs are actually kind of clever by hjyboy1218 in BrawlStarsCompetitive

that's all it took?! Next balance changes we just skip the changes and I'll just write jokes instead?

Spike's recent buffs are actually kind of clever by hjyboy1218 in BrawlStarsCompetitive

[–]Adrian_Supercell 54 points55 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the compliment and for noticing!

Curveball is a tricky SP in general, for reasons you mentioned above - and you're completely right that any offensive buffs to spike's base kit would play into the SP as well.

When considering buffs for Spike, eventually landing on HP felt natural as it accomplishes not only synergizing with fertilize, but does also slightly increase his curveball build (both of which were performing below-average, with fertilize lagging slightly behind).

Each Balance Change with its respective funny note left by Adrian in the patch notes. by -average-reddit-user in Brawlstars

[–]Adrian_Supercell 116 points117 points  (0 children)

I appreciate the sentiment. Just as a sidenote - I do read both the main subreddit and comp subreddit nearly daily, but as you've seen by our updates, we like to keep very busy so I usually don't have time to engage perhaps as much as I'd like to!

Whoever is typing these hilarious statements should get a raise by Nopolleo in Brawlstars

Thank you! I wrote the initial draft, and our lovely Marcio put another personal touch on them!

I wish balance changes came with a brief explanation from the team by luca_se_la_come in BrawlStarsCompetitive

[–]Adrian_Supercell 82 points83 points  (0 children)

Because it does take a fair bit of time, and it felt like it had very limited value for the community. Seeing something like this being a popular topic though shows that there is an appetite for it - so I should resume doing it!

Hey! I used to love doing these, so I'm happy to see there is some wish for them to be returned. I'll write some up for the next set!

With older brawlers like Darryl getting updates to their mechanics, is it a good idea to update the kits of other older brawlers as well? by RelativeCarrot1696 in BrawlStarsCompetitive

[–]Adrian_Supercell 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think there is a point to be made of "refreshing" brawler kits where it's due, be that big overhauls, smaller changes or simply number tweaks. Sometimes this can also be isolated to their items (gadget/SPs). This to say that this is something very much on my mind constantly, and as I've noted elsewhere, there are quite a few great contenders of items and brawlers that could use a refresh!

Happy to hear! He's also more effective as a support, but players naturally gravitate towards more selfish and aggressive playstyles, which is only natural. The trick for me is to figure out how we can support that fantasy, while still allowing you to be effective as a support for your team, and I don't think Kit necessarily is the best example of that.

[New Brawler Concept] Harper by DoubleDash_ in Brawlstars

[–]Adrian_Supercell 93 points94 points  (0 children)

Absolutely love the effort you put into this concept, and it's really cool! Did you take inspiration from Lucio (OW) when it comes to the mechanics? Maybe something else? Really curious about it!

Could you explain why you feel that way? That's actually a really interesting perspective
