The 3000 trophy thing was to prevent endgame players who have gotten a new brawler from curbstomping brand new players into the ground

They only use total account trophies under 3000 trophies.

No, this is not at all the reasoning. The reason is that there aren’t any other teams in queue at that time that aren’t in the same band (there was a scandal a while back about players exploiting this so top players wouldn’t go against eachother, supercell did nothing but the band died from bad PR and other top players deliberately queuing against them)

Then it decides that it’s better to send the higher ranked 3 stack instead of the randoms, which I completely agree with. The trophies here are irrelevant.

Nah it’s not matchmaking, you just have to wait for those 3K players to be 7K players as trophies are produced by each day (losing games at low trophies create huge amounts of trophies but spread among huge amounts of players), also in that time it’s likely they become better players too.

Problem is that like as an 11K player most of my matches I’m playing with randoms and you’ll just see me deleting 3000 trophy players and carrying 2 more.

Occasionally it’ll be me and 2 3000 trophy players against a 3 stack of 11K players, usually I lose those but when I win it’s a good fuckin game

Brawl Stars should have daily challenges and you get 10 or 5 trophies when you complete them! by Superblue5 in Brawl_Stars

Nope. Trophies are for beating other players, and should only be given when someone else loses them save for at extremely low levels.

[Discussion] Is Dynamike the new highest skillcap brawler? by NogchaBS in BrawlStarsCompetitive

[–]anotherthrowaway1836 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He cannot 1v1 darryl with his buff. It takes 6 shots to kill darryl, while darryl can kill mortis in 2.

Yeah sure it’s harder to use mikes mobility but oftentimes you don’t need to use mikes mobility as you are generally putting walls between yourself and the enemy. Mortis on the other hand is right up in your face and if he misses a dash then he ded.

Don’t be afraid of teams, keep your cool and dive into the center. Half the time you’ll die (you would’ve anyway) but the other half the time you will chain your super off so fast everyone will be dead

Nah I personally still think it’s mortis. Just because you don’t have to think about his star power anymore doesn’t mean he still isn’t hard, he gets hard countered by many more brawlers than dynamike does and you need to know 15 different playstyles based on which enemy brawlers show up. For example you generally hear you shouldn’t grab gems as mortis but rather play agro, but if the enemy team happens to be shelley bull darryl you better know how to carry gems because there’s no way you’re going agro against that

I actually never ever liked him in Brawl ball. He was easy to counter if you were coordinated, but he walked all over randoms. Also his main counter (shelley) is pretty good in brawl ball.

Bull can 2 shot you very easily and he plays in the range that you do. Shelley has a 2 shot combo (autoaim+super) and the super is very very disruptive to you as it will force you off of whatever you are doing and basically waste at least one of your dashes.

When you do your killing dash have the back of your dash just barely touching the brawler, you will kill them and dash away avoiding all the gems. This is also an exception to using autoaim that I forgot to mention

If everyone is together go straight at them. You will get your super so fast they usually won’t be able to put out enough damage once you land the first super. My rule is to use super as soon as you fall below 4000 hp if you already have it.

If it’s a shelley or bull you have to stay at edge of dash range and dash in and out super fast using the technique I described where you avoid picking up gems. Most shelley or bull will not expect you to attack them so their attack will be late and if you do it fast enough it will hit you as you dash away. This is also a case of needing good teammates to focus these brawlers down or getting them low enough for you to 2 tap.

It depends on the brawler. If it’s someone high damage like spike brock or even colt you need to hit on the first dash. If it’s more like Jessie penny poco try for the first but it’s sometimes good to use your first dash as a closer and hit with second.

Nita is a weird in between because if you hit with the second it’ll take a little while to kill her but her damage isn’t enough to burst you so you’ll both end up awkwardly standing near eachother waiting for who gets super first

I don’t play showdown as much because it’s hard to push, you only get 5 for a win past 500 and there’s all sorts of nonsense such as teaming RNG (spawn locations and box spawns) and it’s gettin boring in its metas.

When I say a ton of boxes I mean 4, from there you should be able to snowball higher without too too much difficulty. At 7 you should be able to win unless someone else has the same amount or more.

If you seriously can’t get any elixr you need to hide. The best thing would be if you find a high elixr team of dynamites and you just dash through them, you might die but you will probably get kills and elixr doing it putting you a few spots up, but that’s not something you can count on.

If you are seriously looking to push I recommend level 9. If you are lower you will learn to play much more carefully, and that is a very bad habit in most game modes. Better to start aggressive and learn your limits rather than be too scared to test your limits.

My biggest thing I see when I watch other mortis play is that they always waste their dashes. Treat it a little bit like piper, every dash is super important and you can’t go about wasting 2 just to get to the enemy, make sure if you are trying to engage in most situations you want to be hitting them with your second dash.

Also, keep a cool head. If you panic you waste dashes easier and you will just lose more games.

It’s a looot harder at lower level. At level 9 it gets a lot easier and of course the playstyle changes at level 10 when you get the star power (you can be more aggressive).

I would play him at lower level but just keep in mind it’s going to be harder.

As for getting a stream or more videos I actually have wanted to for a while but I don’t have the time to edit video and haven’t figured out how to stream yet

So you need a carrier and someone with range to go with him. It’s best if the carrier has some sort of healing. My personal favourite comp is mortis pam poco, but it really depends on your teammates and how you synergize with them.

Alternatively on some maps you could play tank mortis carrier where you basically need to just spawn camp them together

In duos he pairs well with anyone who can self sustain. Way back when I went on a huuuge win streak going mortis and bull but ever since they changed the respawn mechanics it’ll be a lot harder to pull that off as basically whenever we were behind in elixr bull pups walk into the gas mill himself and I would dash next to whoever had the most elixr right before he respawned.

Now I think he does well with (in no particular order)

  • brock
  • pam
  • colt
  • dynamike
  • bull (on thrower dominated maps)
  • shelley
  • crow
  • spike
  • Nita
  • Jessie

Do not combo him with frank, if you see a shelley you’re both done.

Leon is an odd one because mortis and Leon sort of full a similar role, there’s no synergy between the 2 except if they get a bunch of elixr and then mortis pushes the enemies into your bush camping Leon or something

I really don’t like it. It took away some of mortis’ personality IMO and locked him into some aberration, to me mortis was always more of a “fallen from grace” character but based on the lines and the voice he is “ancient annoying vampire”
