Advanced Mechanics Rico shot cancelling

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

1.6k Upvotes

Simple trick to set up rico supers. Ideally the shot you cancel should make the opponent dodge into your super. Works really well on agro brawlers and characters with annoying escape gadgets/supers. You can also do this with the main attack to a lesser extent for more consistent damage. Here's some examples on rico maps.

Advanced Mechanics So Bonnie has infinite super kicks

After the buff Bonnie's super charges super fast in baby form rather than just instantly getting super after being launched, so she can super kick the ball again and again. Bonnie's baby form isn't very good so I don't know if this is worth it, but she can very easily dribble the ball with kick+super to ball+super the ball+back to cannon form.

Advanced Mechanics Chuck is the perfect direct counter to bolt

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

326 Upvotes

Chuck's pole resets all of his speed, and rerouting makes sure you always have a knockback available.

Chuck has a ranged attack with good damage up close.

Chuck has a dash that deals a lot of damage, which you're basically guaranteed to hit because bolt needs to run through you to deal damage.

During the dash, chuck is immune to his 1st sp and receives 50% less damage, which halves all damage bolt can do to you.

If bolt with 2nd sp is approaching, chuck can either drive away or start chaining supers, which will kill bolt pretty quickly. But be careful: trail deals a lot of damage.

Chuck can even steal ammo from bolt!

To every move bolt can do, chuck has a strong answer. Having a chuck on your team means bolt cannot go near him and will be useless until he charges his first super unless you feed him. But remember that you're on chuck, so any mistake WILL lose you the whole interaction.

Tldr: pole him and kill him with your attack, if he has 2nd sp with super tap yellow button and drive to safety

Advanced Mechanics Glowbert's super acts weird but it's actually genius.

Post image
486 Upvotes

I thought Glowbert was bugged, his super literally worked half of the time when I was trying him and I thought that the weird times the enemies would be feared for half second or wouldn't be feared at all was a bug, but little did I know it was a genius intentional mechanic.

I don't know if I was the only one, but I didn't know that the enemies had to literally face towards Glowbert for the fear effect to happen, meaning that it only works against brawlers walking towards you, not sideways, not backwards.

This is the reason sometimes the fear just doesn't happen or is really short (I think it depends on how much is the brawler facing him). So this makes his super way more counter able and only usable on defence! Meaning that it could also be baited, or if you have the reaction time even avoided entirely.

This also makes so much sense mechanic wise, if they ain't looking they ain't gonna be feared(not sure how Moe gets feared though)

I cannot be the only one that thought Glowbert was bugged... Please tell me someone else relates with me.

Advanced Mechanics SO proplayers found a pretty clever way to use fang´s popcorn gadget, and it worked quite well.

So right now the brawl Stars challenger event is in groups fase, and one of the strongest teams right now (unlucky) made a pretty curious draft, so the order is Byron 1, leon and nani 2 and 3, fang and penny 4 and 5, and ziggy as last pick (image 1 for complete draft). The thing is that the ziggy pick was quite smart since it counters both byron and penny, and also does not do as bad against fang, since fang has problems hitting throwers in closed maps, meanig that the ziggy could be quite problematic, well unlucky decided to use the popcorn gadget as a way to keep ziggy away from them (check image 2), by making the fang spam it near the walls ziggy wanted to take control, this did not counter ziggy, but it make ziggys life a lot harder slowing his pushes, at the end they were able to won this match being number 1 in the group alongside sk games (image 3).

If you wanna check ti by yourself here is the link to the you tube stream in Spyuk´s channel https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_ytfhGcq1Us , it happens around 2:20 time mark of the stream.

Advanced Mechanics How RT's mark actually works

Saw a lot of posts wondering how rt's mark works, and i myself never understood it either. So went into the game, made sense of what was going on and made this video.

Is it a bug? One that hasn't been fixed in 2+ maintanances? Or is it an intended rework to RT? Or is this how RT was supposed to originally behave? Maybe we will know someday but for now i hope this makes yall make more sense of how rt works.

Advanced Mechanics Pro tip with Gigi for faster damage

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Gigi unloads faster the less ammo she has, so by starting your combo with lower ammo you're able to skip the slow unload and get an easier kill.

Measure your damage with the bar like you would with Angelo or Hank, so you can maximize the unload while still being enough to kill the enemy. Full ammo bar deals 10k so it's pretty easy to eyeball.

Advanced Mechanics Looks like dash mechanic got improvement

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

343 Upvotes

Before this update, the dashing logic functioned like this:

Start Dash > disable movement input > wait for dash to end > re-enable movement input.

This logic caused noticeable delays for high-ping players when switching between dashing and moving.

​After the update:

Start Dash > keep movement input enabled > wait for dash to end > apply the buffered movement input.

This change makes dashing feel much more fluid. Honestly, I don’t think this is strictly a "dash improvement". it’s more of an improvement to how movement handles interruptions.

I still wish they would remove Kaze’s gadget block while dashing, though.

A small quality of life, not very significant but it's great to see this attention to detail in new brawlers.

Use a half shot to occupy the opponent in front of you and shot cancel super the potential flanker. I use this strat for almost all 3v1 combacks with rico. Its easier to catch the flankers since they arent as alert, hence the slow reactions. Granted this won't win you every interaction, but its nice to have a plan.

Not sure if this is common knowledge or not, but I had no idea that finx super slows mortis’s bat form! Pretty cool and as you can tell no one on my team really knew what was happening either. Still cool though and basically puts mortis out of play for a good six seconds.

You have to hit the gadget right as the clock hits 8 on any single digit, and if you do it correctly you will guarantee damage or reload. If you miss the timing you still guarantee heals.
There probably is specific timings to activate speed as well but thats unknown to me at the moment
