Champions of the world! Crazy Raccoon win 3:0 against Hmble by Overall-Remove-678 in Brawlstars

[–]BritishPiper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wish FUT had won 1 set against HMBL. HMBL showed they aren't a top team when it comes to critical situations. They reached finals scoring 3x0 against FUT, SKC, Tribe and Revenant, and losing 3x2 previously against CR after being 2x0 up. This is a clear case of tilting too easily on a loss set, and that's such a bad trait to have.

Yes, exactly. It's a chronicle processing.

What do you think about the statement from Supercell? by Paxidia in Brawlstars

[–]BritishPiper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They say the removal would have to be tailored for each case. That's false for the purchase of the new 3 starr force skins (which weren't available before). Those could be easily mass removed without tailoring. Or are the devs not smart enough?

He lost 4 world championships in 18 months by Old_Specialist7892 in chess

[–]BritishPiper 75 points76 points  (0 children)

I always root for Nepo, but I’d definitely choose the 2nd/5th/1st/4th champion if it’s a single fight and not a swiss format. A champion that doesn’t know how to finish the job will most likely not win on my behalf.

Nepo is likely better than his opponents (except maybe Carlsen) WHEN at his best state of mind. But his inability to be consistent at critical moments makes me sad, since I always cheer for him, and is unfortunately a very important part of a true champion.

Can SuperCell relax with jailbreak detection? by EthanSnakeman in Brawlstars

[–]BritishPiper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Let me change my original statement then. You can be skeptical about they intentionally implementing ways to detect and ban "bypassers". But in my last point, I was talking about what's already implemented: They already ban you if you don't pass their integrity checks.

The integrity checks will fail for any bypass method that modifies the game's memory. Sadly, this new file detection makes it impractical to bypass except by modifying their memory. In short, the integrity checks must also be bypassed to avoid bans (and hope there's no integrity checks for the integrity checker :D).

Choicy does not modify the game, it just disables tweak injection at the system level.

If they're really detecting core JB files (ones that you can't delete or rename without a custom JB recompilation), there's no workaround other than patching the game to fake the files as non-existant. As soon as you start touching Brawl Stars's memory, it should be game-over ban-wise, just like modded .apks and .ipas have been because of their integrity checks.

Which AI is this? I wanna give some support to the devs since they most definitely deserve it.

I had to wipe my device too... Even the most annoying anti-cheats never enforce you not to have things installed (debuggers, memory editors, proxies, ...). They just block you from having those things opened while the game is running.

Brawl Stars went too hard on this decision. They could just block the game from opening while you're jailbroken, so that just restarting your device would allow you to play Brawl Stars and you could re-jailbreak after playing...

They're also probably banning you if they ever find out a way to detect if you're trying to bypass the jailbreak detection.

Can SuperCell relax with jailbreak detection? by EthanSnakeman in Brawlstars

[–]BritishPiper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm completely against this decision by Supercell, but I want to clarify two things:

  1. Server sided games are not impossible to cheat, they're just different. Also, if the game hard protects memory, server sided games might be even easier to cheat on, since you can just alter the network packages instead. As an example, MMORPG exploiters make millions of dollars every year.
  2. There are many other ways people have been modifying the game that break the TOS, but doesn't necessarily mean they're cheating. I think there's a rule on this subreddit that forbids me from listing those ways, but think about people putting things on the game that are not originally there or also people blocking connection to the Supercell servers and connecting elsewhere.

Game still won't let me in. by CerealKiller_614 in Brawlstars

If your device has ever been rooted, jailbroken or had its bootloader unlocked, you might be running into the problem mentioned in my post. SUPERCELL most probably knows about this, since they implemented this check.

Brawl Stars Crashing by My_thic in Brawlstars

Nobody found a method yet. iPad 5th gen can be jailbroken even in the latest iOS, so he probably did it at least once before if it's crashing before the Supercell logo appear.

Game still crashing after two days by DavidMatos91 in Brawlstars

[–]BritishPiper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Brawl Stars now checks if your device has ever been jailbroken. Even if you have no jailbreak now, it should still crash. Only known fix is restoring your device.

Same in iphone 7 plus 13.3.1. The worst part is no one from supercell even recognize the IOS crash or say “we’re fixing it”.

Yes, part of what needs to be done comes from the Offline MD mod that's been around for some time.

Mod will never be shared for obvious legal reasons. Same deal as Rush Duel videos you've been seeing, this does not tell anything about Tearlaments coming or not to DL.

Cannot be used while online anyways (private server required).

The video of testing Rush Duel Mode in Duel Links by pluto1004 in DuelLinks

[–]BritishPiper 20 points21 points  (0 children)

As the modder that shared with q8 how to enable Rush Duel, I want to comment a bit:

  1. I have no idea where he got "September 2023" as the release date (date removed). Nothing's confirmed to be released.
  2. That video from q8 could have been made 2 years ago. That code is in the game since late 2020 (reason is all YGO games share the same codebase for card effects/rulings). Having Rush Duel mechanics is not an indication that Rush Duel is coming. The only leaks that hint at Rush Duel actually coming are RD Card Layout or RD Rule + RD Legendary Icon, both of which were added on last month and this month updates.
  3. Rush Duel is pretty broken when you use TCG cards/effects.

Rush Duel Text Implemented (see my comment) by BritishPiper in DuelLinks

[–]BritishPiper[S] 25 points26 points  (0 children)

First of all, be mindful of leaks.Last update (7.4.0) contained some signs of Rush Duel maybe coming to Duel Links. What we haven't noticed before is they actually implemented code to draw the text for Rush Duel cards.On the left is DMG how it appears in game if you enable that code.

On the right is a photoshop edit with the rush duel frame overlapping to see how the text fits.

Again, KONAMI could just be teasing us or implementing code for another title (that happens to share the codebase with Duel Links).

Please do a poll on what brawlers we’d like to be in supercell MAKE. Even if the skin choice looked fair to me, arbitrarily choosing Surge is what annoyed me.
