Brawlidays!

Welcome to Brawlidays!

Edgar (Epic) - Coming soon!

  • Main Attack - Very short range attack that hits twice, Edgar is healed for 25% of the damage dealt.

  • Super Ability - Edgar jumps over a short distance and gains extra movement speed after landing. Super Ability is also slowly charged passively over time (similar to Darryl)

  • Gadget - Increases passive Super Ability charging by 700% for 3 seconds

  • Star Power - Edgar Super Ability also deals 1000 damage to nearby enemies upon landing

Byron (Mythic) - Coming soon!

  • Main Attack - A long range attack that applies a damage over time effect to enemies and a heal over time effect to friendly Brawlers. Both of these effects can stack on the same target as many times as they are hit.

  • Super Ability - An instantly exploding vial that damages enemies and heals friendly Brawlers who are in the area

  • Gadget - Consumes one ammo to heal 800 per second for 3 seconds

    • Trophy League duration extended from 2 to 4 weeks

    • Trophy decay changes - The goal behind these changes is to improve matchmaking quality by spreading players further apart in Brawler Trophies

      • Most players' Brawlers were "stuck" around 525 Trophies because the system aggressively brought them back to this range which resulted in uneven matches as the skill level of the players were highly varied at this level

      • New trophy decay starts at 501 Trophies instead of 550

      • Generally, the Trophy decay levels are every 25 points instead of every 50 points

      • The Trophy decay takes the Brawler to 1 point below the lower limit of their current tier. However, at 900+ Trophies it ramps up.
