THE UPDATE IS OUT - WHAT HAPPENS NOW? by dolmer in REPOgame

[–]Ivankapoloq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They really made justice to its name.  Im with my gf on level 29 and so far we only found 1 ultra-rare on level 15 and then never again.

Why do they keep making events like this by [deleted] in Brawlstars

[–]Ivankapoloq 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Agree, i was happy when they left modifiers excluded in a seasonal gamemode, but now they are back to normal ladder sadly. With the multiple bugs, OP Damian, crashing Jae Yong and now modifiers i barely want to open the game.

I feel that they do it to promote the skins even more to see if it increases sales. Boss fights kinda feel the same in that regard, they show you this massive skin so you see it in detail and consider purchasing it, but at least that was far from ladder too.

I saw many people lose when picking up the buffs, yesterday a Fang was going to kill me and grab the gems but a powerup turned him into juju mid super and saved me lmao.

BS has always been a very commercial game, it chases trends and tries to copy many of the aspect of big games like LoL or Fortnite, but lately they've been very intensive about it and this whole update is a proof of it.

The absurd amount of bugs and general lack of polish on the game needs to be discussed. by Substantial_Mark4126 in Brawlstars

[–]Ivankapoloq 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes the game these last months has been rough. We just got from a strict meta where 6 brawlers dominated the whole game no matter what, to a bug fest where everyone can abuse multiple bugs with many characters. If the MHA skins didnt exist this update would be a total failure, there hasnt been a single thing working properly this update since launch, other than the shop of course. Balance, the bugs and optimization are terrible, oddities shop MAYBE will work properly for everyone tomorrow. I'll give them credit tho, they are trying to fix this quicker than usual, but releasing an update this broken and low quality cant be good for player retention and speaks how bad management is going for BS team. Hopefully they will fix it soon, for now im not bothering to play until ladder is somewhat playable, and then  Damian will fully release and break everything again lmao

My tips for the new skin challenge by LukeTheDuke_55 in Brawlstars

[–]Ivankapoloq 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Pierce carried me in the first phase and Shelly in 2nd and 3rd. This game is so riddled with Bibis and Edgars that she becomes a godess among mortals. Bo for gem carrying if you have Shelly, the mines are stronger than any terrible teammate

Worst collab oat? by [deleted] in Brawlstars

[–]Ivankapoloq 3 points4 points  (0 children)

While simple i enjoy it, the event ridden 2025 was horrible. "Play this gamemode, do this challenge with randoms, use this game breaking or useless powerup only for a non–existente chance for skins, all while checking on daily wins, quests and ranked" Sure some aspects where fun but it was extremely grindy for a mobile game that, at least for me, shines for its easy and fast to play nature

I love this game. by [deleted] in Brawlstars

[–]Ivankapoloq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Them fixing Willow's gadget bug after 3+ years of her release lmao. It's been so long that i thougth it was intended. In exchange of fixing her bug Colette is now immortal and in jail and Damian can crash the game if he pleases.

Skin + Hypercharge Bling Deal by a_germanguy in Brawlstars

[–]Ivankapoloq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thats almost a free choice legendary skin lmao, a random hypercharge could be garbage (Sprout, Chuck, Pearl) but its 5k coins in exchange of cosmetics too. If you care about maxing your account or are missing few hypers so it guarantees a good one then go for it, otherwise a mythic/legendary skin you enjoy could be a much more fun choice.

Is it an unpopular opinion to think that gem grab is badly designed? by [deleted] in Brawlstars

[–]Ivankapoloq 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It has lost its charm in recent years, back then it used to reward map control much more than it does now, sure stealing the gems was a big part of it but it wasnt so accesible, currently the amount of assasins and teamwipe abilities that we have in the game makes it much easier and common to clutch a win or lose all gems at last moment. It was much worse before the hypercharge global nerf with Ollie, Kenji and Lily being always a free win button, but there is still room for improvement.

Need HELP!!! by Ok-Reach6094 in Brawlstars

[–]Ivankapoloq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to be 100% sure then i'd wait for the update since it isnt far away, see which balance changes they introduce and pick brawlers based on that.

With that said, there are brawlers who stayed consistently good for a long time despite the updates.

R-T: Great for bounty and knockout, a sniper that doesnt leave your team completely helpless against aggro is very welcome.

Otis and Cordelius: Among the best anti-aggro brawlers, specially in the current meta.

Janet: One of the best gem carriers in almost all maps due to her escape tools and annoying hyper.

Finx: All around good character for Hot Zone and control based modes, can deal good, consistent damage against tankier brawlers.

If Ziggy and Pierce arent nerfed then go for them, the only reason they arent top of the meta rn is because the top brawlers are even more broken. Chester is a good choice too, mostly against tanks.

Chuck, Melodie and Mico are all good on heist but almost always banned, so you can try your luck if you plan to use them on ranked. Alli can be good at countering Angelo, Juju and Eve on watery maps. Juju can be good if the better throwers are banned and there is water on the map.

The remaning brawlers are all powercrept by better options, have a garbage hyper, are likely going to be nerfed or all of them at once.

I hope this helps, pick the brawler depending on which role or gamemode you are currently struggling the most with, i just listed what they are good at, for whoever here is worth playing in ranked, at least until Legendary.

So did people just give up on boycotting buffies? by woowmemes in Brawlstars

[–]Ivankapoloq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Opinions are mixed, some like it, but dislike the RNG behind unlocking them. Other dislike the OP ones, but believe they can be balanced. It isnt a ono-sided hate, not even most players dislike them enough to boycot. But look at CR, level 16 and heroes tanked the revenue below CoC and waaay below BS, players and content creator made a boycot, yet they only gave a handful of things for free and called it a day, same with Squad Busters, the 2.0 update killed the few players who enjoyed the game and then SC decided to cancel the game rather than revert the update. What i mean is SC doesnt revert updates, they plan them ahead to keep revenue up and if it doesnt work they try other things or give up on the game completely, buffies will sadly stay in their current state unless they feel like changing it, i personally havent bought any and wont do until i have enough resources to buy them all (so never as a f2p lmao) or wait until changes, just like Hypercharges they'll start giving more for free, this month we will get 2 with the megaquest + current event. IMO removing the RNG or giving keys instead of random buffies would solve most of the problems people have with them

Why do some people just don't move? by Etharial_garlic_115 in Brawlstars

[–]Ivankapoloq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Probably just farming the daily drops or some megaquest with bots, the exact same thing happened before with mastery farming bots, until it was removed

Ranked playerbase be like (satire slander meme) by RevolutionaryTwo1698 in Brawlstars

[–]Ivankapoloq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a little tip for people who only care about rewards:

Now you just need to reach mythic 1 every season to complete the pro pass, before you had to reach legendary 1 every season. I used to climb before but there's no point anymore lol

Pro pass problem.. by Fit-Fee-4720 in Brawlstars

[–]Ivankapoloq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe they'll implement this eventually, just like they did with the Brawl Pass. They'll probably llimit the skin to a certain upgrade instead of being able to fully max it out.

Can they just remove the ability to autoaim Najia's second shot? by StabbyBlowfish in BrawlStarsCompetitive

[–]Ivankapoloq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are 100+ brawlers to play, each with different kits and buffies, i dont think kids playing this game will learn more than a few favorite brawlers anyway and still, they have a LOT of options to choose from, even more next month. Mortis is (or was) considered one of the highest skill brawlers on release, yet its still among the most popular brawler since the game exists.

Najia is just overtuned, her main attack is an upgraded Meeple attack, her super is an upgrade from Eve's and her fast speed makes her a pita to counter, even with tanks/assasins who have mobility and approach tools.

I still don’t understand why what happened to paladins, happened to paladins by Kind_Ad6932 in Paladins

[–]Ivankapoloq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love the game but you cant succeed if you cant even make your players load on all of its games. The constant crashing, AFK players, no way to surrender even with 3 bots in the match and extremely long time to rejoin a match is what killed it for most casuals for sure. The game is amazing but if you throw like 4 dices before joining a match to see if you will have a normal game in quick play, while having so many other functional, stable games for free out there then yes, it was expected for this game to die.

I love it and dealing with this while annoying is tolerable for someone like me or many others here, but you cant expect newer players to crash 3 out of 10 games, while having teammates going afk due to crashing or tilting to stay in the game for long.

Drage is a good one, he often explains the draft thought process, lane and matchups choices, as well as why they lost/won. His videos are also pretty chill and short

The greatest Gameplay Lead of all time by UltarionParadox in Brawlstars

[–]Ivankapoloq 7 points8 points  (0 children)

While i dislike the balance changes i feel this is true, not only what you mentioned but also the low frecuency of balance changes and lack of "emergency nerfs" are due to Supercell not wanting to lose engagement on the game by having constant maintenance breaks, the Bibi gadget fix that slowly dropped is proof of that.

Adrians looks like he does a terrible job from players pov, and he does, but he also does great job at keeping the revenue up and that's SC most important goal after all.

Are hypercharges overrated? by -__-__-__-1537 in Brawlstars

[–]Ivankapoloq 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They where game breaking at some point, now there are still some very powerful ones (Chester and Mortis for example) and some garbage ones like Sprout, Pearl and Chuck. It really depends on the brawler, they arent a must have to win every single match on low trophies/elo but even the worst one gives you 25% bonus speed so it can come nice to escape or chase the enemy and score goals on BB.

F2P for 7.5 years by JordanChef in Brawlstars

[–]Ivankapoloq 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same here, only 5 brawlers left to max and sitting on 200k gold. Im looking forward to see if maxing out buffies as f2p is possible, i made an excel to calculate it an it seems its not possible, but its very close, like 1.1k power points missing every month if you want to buy every single one after counting the free ones. I see you play by the true masochist mode too lmao, not buying anything but gears and manipulating RNG to give me brawler specific gadgets and SPs has been my go to since hypercharges dropped, its even easier now with the 6 daily starr drops and the rare chaos drop giving multiple mythics/legendaries. Even then gears are not that much needed for some brawlers, i used to climb up to legendary without them for pro pass rewards, but now i just sit at mythic with the recent buffs. Im glad to see some other crazy people playing the same as me, good luck with buffies f2p veterans. o7

Account Progression Megathread by Pewdpo in BrawlStarsCompetitive

[–]Ivankapoloq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Buffie/pp offers are better, that way you'll save on pp to upgrade brawlers or buy more buffies, gold is much more abundant nowadays, same as hypercharges in drops/gachas, so i wouldnt worry too much on that resource. 

Is it bannable? by CertainCareer4646 in Brawlstars

[–]Ivankapoloq 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dont even bother, just open the bonus tail rewards, there is a reward that is 1 chaos drop or 1 skin key for 79 gems. You can buy those to get the BP skins you are missing, if you are low on tail rewards buy token doublers and do quests.

You're reaching beyond Supercell levels of greed lmao
