Fame Rewards

  • Reaching a new Fame Rank now gives special rewards, including Pins, Player Icons, and a unique Battle Card background that looks different for every Fame Rank

  • The background will always be the one associated with your highest Fame achieved and can be toggled on or off from the Battle Card screen

New Mode: Ranked!

Power League is dead. Ranked is here!

  • Only Brawlers Power Level 9 and above are allowed!

  • From Bronze to Gold III, matches will be in a best-of-1 format without a ban phase

  • Diamond I and above continue having a best-of-3 format with a ban phase

  • To play in Diamond I and above, you will need at least 12 Brawlers at Power Level 9

  • Players in Diamond I and above will not be able to team up or get matched with players from Gold III and below

  • Seasons now last about 1 month, coinciding with Brawl Pass Seasons

    • All players will be reset to Bronze I at the start of each new Season

    • All players will also receive a Rank Boost that lasts until the previous Season's Rank

  • New Quests added, exclusive for Ranked!



Ranked Score & Tiers

Ranks are still organized in the same way as in Power League, but now you can see how many points you’ve gained or lost after a match, and earning points will increase your Ranked Score, which determines which Rank you are in.

  • The amount of Ranked points you gain or lose is relative to the Ranked Score of the opponents you face

    • This means you gain a higher score from winning against higher-ranked players (and lose less from defeats) and earn less when playing against lower-ranked players

    • Draws will no longer require matches to be replayed, instead, points will be distributed among all players, depending on the difference in Ranked Scores

  • Once you reach a new major Ranked Tier, you cannot get demoted below that Rank 

    • For example, once you get to Mythic I, you cannot drop to Diamond III, but you can still be demoted from Mythic II to Mythic I

  • If you reach Masters Rank, you will have an absolute Rank number, based on your Rank Score, and your name will show up in the Global leaderboard of the current Season for all players in Masters



Ranked Matchmaking

  • Players now can only team up in Duos with other players that have a Rank difference of 3 minor Ranks or less

    • For example, a player in Mythic I can only team up with another player from Diamond I to Legendary I

  • Also, teams can only be matched when they are within 2 minor Rank Tiers or less

  • Solo and team queues have been removed, so now you can play solo, as a duo, or in a team of 3

    • But if you end up playing solo against a team, matchmaking will adapt to make the match more balanced



New Ranked Starr Drops!

Ranked Starr Drops are the new type of reward coming with the Ranked mode! 

They contain Bling, Cosmetics, Skins from previous Power League seasons, and Skins from future Ranked seasons!

  • Each new Season will bring a new Skin and Cosmetics to the rewards pool

  • The initial reward pool of Skins will include the Power League Skins from last year, starting with Mariposa Piper

  • Ranked Starr Drops will be obtainable from the new Ranked rewards track, together with an Epic Starr Drop, Mythic Starr Drops, and Legendary Starr Drops



New Battle Card Ranked Backgrounds!

You can now show off your Ranked Tier with the new Ranked Battle Card Backgrounds!

  • Battle Card Backgrounds are visible in your Battle Card, and your Frame changes depending on your current Ranked Tier

  • These Ranked Backgrounds carry over to the following Season, but for one Season only

    • Because of this, To keep your Background, you need to continue playing Ranked each Season

  • Ranked Backgrounds can also be upgraded each Season if you finish in the same Rank up to 7 times

  • If you don’t want to show your Rank, these Backgrounds can also be hidden by toggling them off from the Battle Card screen



Ranked Modifiers

Ranked matches now feature Modifiers!

The idea for Ranked Modifiers is to spice up competitive gameplay while maintaining fairness for both teams, so there won’t be any random element associated with them, and any gameplay changes from these Modifiers will affect both teams equally.


Each Ranked Season will feature 4 Modifiers, and these will rotate every season, starting with the following:

  • March Season

    • Quickfire - Brawlers reload 10% of their ammo when hitting a target

    • Big Friend - All Brawlers have their HP equal to the highest Brawler on the team

    • Timed Detonation - Terrain gets progressively destroyed

  • April Season

    • Barbed Ammo - All damage leaves a dot for 10% of damage dealt

    • Sick Beats - All Brawlers are immune to all forms of crowd control

    • One Modifier will carry one over from the March Season

  • Persistent Modifier

    • Classic - Standard match without any Modifiers

 

Ranked Games Reporting and Penalties

We’re introducing a new Reporting system for Ranked matches! At the end of each match, players will be able to report other players who have behaved dishonorably during the match.

  • There are 3 types of reports that you can make after matches: Grief Play, Cheating and Bad Random

  • To avoid abusing the report tool, every player is limited to making 10 reports a day

  • When a player you reported is penalized, you will be notified by in-game mail


And how does reporting change things now? To start off, every player will now have a reputation meter:

  • Getting reported will make your Rep decrease 

  • Once your Rep has dropped enough, you'll get a Yellow Card warning you that more penalties will result in suspension from Ranked matches.

  • Going too low will earn you a Red Card, preventing you from playing Ranked matches for some time

  • You can only recover Rep for each Ranked game you play where you didn’t get reported

  • Your Reputation meter is only visible to you on your profile screen, other players cannot see it

Other Changes

  • Added physics effects to Brawler’s lobby animations – try spinning them around and see how they look! 

  • XP Doublers base price reduced for 1,000 XP Doublers from 40 Gems to 25 Gems

  • Added a Thumbs Up/Down vote at the end of matches

  • Extended the Trophy Road from 50,000 Trophies to 70,000

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed an issue preventing players from switching Brawlers in the Starr Road

  • Leon’s Clone will not show a Hypercharge icon around him anymore

  • Fixed Spawn Points not showing up in Map Maker

  • Fixed the issue where Mico could be damaged while in the air

  • Fixed the visual issue causing Larry & Lawrie’s Skins to overlap in the Catalog

  • The torture is over – you can now skip the animation when receiving Power Points

  • Fixed a localization issue with Kit’s attack values

  • Fixed a mistake with Heist’s description

  • Fixed an issue where the Skin W Otis' was causing the Gadget "Dormant Star" not to silence enemies
