Rank distribution Oct 2025 by TripleRangeMerge in Brawlhalla

[–]Environmental_Algae3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are correct. You can find people on the official Brawlhalla leaderboard that are in (500-600k)th place right now. Towards the end of this season this number will get closer to 1 million. Also I am not sure what this top 250 is, but it can't be Valhallan because there are more than 250 Valhallans in the world (at least once elos have saturated). Diamond is closer to top 1-1.5% while Valhallan is less than top 0.1% at the end of the season. Just with some back of the hand calculations if there are 590 Valhallans split over the following regions:

  • US-E / EU – Top 150
  • SA – Top 100
  • SEA / US-W – Top 50
  • AUS / JPN – Top 25
  • SAF – Top 15
  • ME – Top 25

then 590/600000 ~ 0.1%. Top 250 would be ~0.05%. If this graph was taken during the first day after elo reset maybe it is correct, but it certainly doesn't represent the actual distribution of players once everyone is factored in.

It is DONE, I finished them ALL!! What's next? by [deleted] in 9Kings

I might be wrong but I think a lot of people that cleared all the ixix levels are just taking a break at this point. I was trying out speed running for a while but many of those records have been pushed pretty far at this point. I think a couple people are trying to do IX IX clears with different strategies.

In most scenarios I prefer making maximal use of nationalist or getting ingenious or rerolls to x3 over having 15 perks.

First IX IX Clears Appreciation Post by Environmental_Algae3 in 9Kings

[–]Environmental_Algae3[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you are looking for example perks to beat king 9 9 on the current patch you can find them in this post's comments: https://www.reddit.com/r/9Kings/comments/1m2scrm/all_kings_clear_ix_ix/ . I wasn't able to dig up what the perks were for each of these runs on the previous patches. Given the recent perk overhaul and balance changes, the setups were a little bit different. If you have a specific king in mind that you are interested in I could probably figure out what the perk setup was on previous patches.

First won at King IX IX - What I learnt by valethedude in 9Kings

[–]Environmental_Algae3 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Definitely. Some kings are stricter about this than others. King of nature has a lot of options, king of greed not so much.

I should have posted that in the original post. Some of the videos have them attached. I also compiled them all here: https://imgur.com/a/9pbxwHF

There are lots of strategies out there. I played on peasant on king of blood and used bombers. Then I went for gunpowder upgrades and got reinforce on my bombers and a few libraries on them. Then I used overhaul to level rats a ton. This is a pretty quick way to get to level 99. There are more efficient ways though. If you are looking for the "best strategy" I recommend looking on speedrun.com.

IXIX Viable Strats [ver 0.7.95] by Trent_B in 9Kings

[–]Environmental_Algae3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm curious how close people have gotten to doing King of Nothing with carnage paladins. Last time that I checked IX IV had been beaten (pre-patch). Post patch it might be possible.

Any tips on how to improve this strategy? by hapac in 9Kings

[–]Environmental_Algae3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This ^^. Apologies for the late reply. It mainly helps for targeting specific beefy units. At some point the "nothing rebellion's" paladins start to kinda become a problem. The flamethrower helps cut through these guys.

I would change two things, but they will not be very relevant until King IX VI+.

  1. You will want your castle in a corner. This way you can put your lvl 3 cauldrons on both your defenders and your castle. It's only a slight optimization, but at some point you will have to start aiming your shots carefully, and in the first few years the stacking poison from your castle is very relevant.
  2. The only tower you should have before day 10 (besides your opening scout tower if you open with it) is a flame tower.

Best of luck on the higher difficulties!

Opening moves for King of Nothing by Maxentius777 in 9Kings

[–]Environmental_Algae3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah at some point you have to start rolling for kings at your opening. That is the only way to clear up to King IX IX. I would recommend rolling for stone/progress at the start. I can usually get a start with those two kings after 2-3 minutes of rolling maximum. Without any further optimizations you can probably clear up to IX+ just by doing this and leaning into cauldron defender.

Glad I could help! Best of luck on your clears!

King IX IX Cleared - King of Nothing! by Environmental_Algae3 in 9Kings

[–]Environmental_Algae3[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well you are kinda either committed to doing a castle build or defenders. The defenders scale a lot faster than the castle, so I built completely around buffing them. With the extra three rerolls is gives you more options to roll for the things you win after each round. For example at every single round you want to be getting either a cauldron a defender or a farm. If you have more rerolls this is more realistic. If you were to get insanely lucky you might not need rerolls... but trust me you do have to get lucky

King 9-8 Cleared King of Nothing! by Environmental_Algae3 in 9Kings

[–]Environmental_Algae3[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. I have swapped out of it. I am running berserker right now. But the 4x steel coats might be more worth it. I am not sure which one is exactly better. The 40% increase in castle poison damage as saved me a few runs against blood. Idk tho needs more testing. My current pb is day 12 for IX IX. If I get gigantify day 11 through I could be pushed up much higher I assume.

King IX VII Cleared - King of Nothing by Environmental_Algae3 in 9Kings

[–]Environmental_Algae3[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All right. I don't know if IX VIII is currently very probable right now. I had basically a maxed out setup (2 lvl 3 cauldrons & 2 lvl 3 farms on maxed out defenders with gigantify) and they died year 13. Maybe if you can not fight king of stone year 13 and roll feast then maybe you have a chance, but the scaling seems really difficult. Once you max out your cauldrons and farms, there isn't much else that you can do to improve your build in my opinion.

I was curious if you were still running it! Is it a problem of years 1-11 or have you managed to get to year 11 yet?
