An automated noodle shop has opened across from Kenji & Kaze’s sushi shop, catching the interest of their son, Nori. Turmoil ensues!

These are the most ambitious Seasons we've ever had! Two connected Seasons, nine eventful weeks, and a story that might change a Brawler… FOREVER!

Season 1 and Season 2 are tied together by a single unfolding story, weaving animations, Powers, game modes, events, tie-in Skins, and more! Season 1, called NanoNoodles, features NanoDrops containing NanoPowers, while Season 2, called Windstock features Smoothie Drops containing Fusions.


NanoDrops

NanoDrops can be earned through Daily Wins, Mega Quests, Boss Fights, Side Quests, Contests and Creator QR codes.

Each NanoDrop gives players 3 picks from a set of 5 cups. Each cup contains 0-3 NanoNoodles, and each NanoNoodle represents a reward. The minimum number of NanoNoodles from each NanoDrop is 1 and the maximum is 9.

Each NanoDrop gained also fills up the NanoMeter for additional rewards.

NanoPowers

NanoPowers are unlocked through NanoDrops and contain per-Brawler Power-ups!

There are a total of 106 NanoPowers players can unlock across 4 rarities: Baseline, Augmented, Cybernetic and Quantum. Once unlocked, Brawlers with NanoPowers automatically have them active for featured event game modes.

Each NanoPower gained provides 3 unique Powers for each Brawler. At the start of a match that has the NanoPowers modifier active, a Brawler with a NanoPower chooses 1 Power to gain from 2 options provided.

NanoPowered Brawlers have a visible effect on the Brawler screen and Battle Card, and can be found in the Powers screen in the Event Hub.

In the Windstock Season, NanoPowers continue to work. If a Fusion is gained for a Brawler with a NanoPower, it replaces the NanoPower (Fusions are more powerful variants of NanoPowers).

Smoothie Drops

Smoothie Drops can be earned through Daily Wins, Mega Quests, Topple the Tower, Side Quests, and Creator QR codes.

Each Smoothie Drop gives players 3 picks from a set of 5 cups. Each cup contains 0-3 Gulps, and each Gulp represents a reward. The minimum number of Gulps from each Smoothie Drop is 1 and the maximum is 9.

Each Smoothie Drop gained also fills up the Smoothie Meter for additional rewards.

Fusions

Fusions are unlocked through Smoothie Drops and contain per-Brawler Power-ups.

There are a total of 106 Fusions players can unlock across 4 rarities: Baseline, Augmented, Cybernetic and Quantum. Once unlocked, Brawlers with Fusions automatically have them active for featured event game modes.

Each Fusion gained provides 3 unique Powers for each Brawler. At the start of a match with the Fusion modifier active, a Brawler with a Fusion randomly has 2 of their 3 Powers fuse together, and they gain the benefits of both during that match.

Fusion Brawlers have a visible effect on the Brawler screen and Battle Card, and can be found in the Powers screen in the Event Hub.

Daily Contests

Step up to the challenge with Daily Contests, a new take on the fan-favorite Katana Kingdom Contests! Every day, a fresh set of contests appears with a choice of 1 of 3 game modes to compete in, and a limited number of attempts to make them count. Play at least one game to earn NanoDrops as your reward, then come back tomorrow for a brand-new lineup!

Topple the Tower

Climb a 5-floor tower, with each floor featuring a different pre-set map and game mode!

At the start, players are given a curated pool of 5-12 Brawlers to choose from throughout the event. You need at least 8 Brawlers on your account to play the event, which players will have reached when they're eligible at 325 Trophies.

All Brawlers are maxed out, including Buffies. The curated pool favors Brawlers with Fusion Powers and NanoPowers where possible, picking from Brawlers you have unlocked.

There are 5 pre-selected game modes that make up the 5 floors of the tower. Before each floor, the player picks one Brawler from the remaining available pool.

• Win a floor: the Brawler you used gets locked to that floor, and you advance. Pick a new Brawler for the next floor.

• Lose a floor: you stay on the same floor, but the Brawler you just used is removed from the pool. Try again with a different one.

• There’s only one Tower per day while the event is active.

Players keep going until they either clear all 5 floors or run out of Brawlers. Once a Tower is finished (lost or won), players need to wait until the next Tower opens to attempt again!

Rewards

Each floor has its own reward, granted upon clearing it. Completing all floors without a single loss (a Perfect Run) earns a special bonus reward on top, a unique player title: "Unbeatable"!

Team Play

The event supports team play! Players can only team up if they're on the same floor, and duplicate Brawlers are allowed.

Presentation

The tower visually evolves as you progress! Floors light up and animate as they're cleared, with celebratory effects at the end. A dedicated music track plays while you're in the event menu. Floors are numbered and the difficulty is shown through the map and game mode choices available.

Side Quests

Side Quests are a new experience where players get access to special Quests that, when completed, progress a milestone tracker that grants extra rewards! The special Quests relate to the featured Brawlers that week.

• Players can see Side Quests for Brawlers they don't own (the quest appears locked)

• Some quests will require a Brawler with a specific Power Level
  

Bosses

This update will feature 3 brand-new bosses to challenge in Nori, Tara, and Brock! Take on their nano infused states in chaotic fights with fish, clones, and TONS of rockets!

Nori: Take on Nori and his trusty Fish companions as he flies around the map with fierce fishing pole dashes and slashes.

Tara: An army of shadow clones, giant black holes, and dangerous projectiles will litter the map as you take on Tara and her squad of clones.

Brock: MORE ROCKETS, MORE CHAOS, MORE BROCK. Take on the fiercest blaster in StarrPark while weaving between an onslaught of aerial rocket barrages against Brock’s Nano-infused boss fight!

Nori - Legendary - Assassin

As the child of Kenji and Kaze, Nori was always destined for great things. Being the first Brawler ever born in Starr Park has also given him extraordinary powers! He's not too bad at cooking either.

• Attack:  FISHING FURY

  • Nori slashes forwards. Charging his attack casts his fishing rod. The longer the charge, the farther he casts. He can pull himself to a wall or Brawler - dashing through Brawlers and dealing damage. At max charge, he will jump over walls! Nori catches fish by hitting Brawlers with his main attack. Fish are used for various abilities!

• Super: CATCH OF THE DAY

  • Nori dives into water then emerges, dealing area damage after a short delay. His Super consumes all fish, increasing its size by 5% and damage by 4% per fish.

• Star Power 2: HIS MOTHER’S SON

  • Nori gains +20% speed for 1 sec whenever he hits an enemy with his Main Attack.

Wendy - Mythic - Support

A smart scientist, with a nostalgic soul. After years working in shady corporate laboratories, she left to build Windstock and help the planet, not harm it!

• Trait: This Brawler can walk over Water AND Charges Super when taking shield damage.

• Attack: BLOW DRYER

  • Wendy fires a blast dealing 2400 damage and giving herself 1386 shield. When hitting a teammate, Wendy gives them 2000 shield.

  Bolt destroys all walls while his Hyper Super is active.

More Brawlers are joining the Buffies family this update! Each gets 3 Buffies that boost their Gadgets, Star Powers, and Hypercharge.

Rico

With Rico's Buffies, both of his Gadgets are receiving reworks. The new Gadgets mirror his core bouncy castle chaos.

• Gadget 1: Multiball Launcher (Rework)
  Rico deploys a vending machine with 4000 HP. When destroyed, it fires projectiles in all directions.

  • Buffied: When Rico shoots the vending machine, it loads up with more projectiles.

  Rico fires a giant gumball that splits into smaller projectiles when hitting a wall or enemy Brawler.

  • Buffied: Movement speed is increased up to 60% at 10% HP.

• Hypercharge: Trick Shot King
  Rico’s Super’s projectiles bounce even further!

  • Buffied: Projectile speed is increased and main attack fires 2 additional projectiles.

Brock

Brock's Gadgets and Star Powers are in a healthy spot, but his Super is getting a refresh. It now tracks his movement so the rocket barrage moves with him.

• Super: Rocket Rain (Rework)
  Brock fires a rocket barrage that takes out enemies and obstacles. He only wants to see you bathing in the Rocket Rain!

  • Buffied: Brock's rockets gain two smaller side rockets dealing 60% less damage.

8-Bit

8-Bit's Buffies are focused on making his Super an even better boost for allies, as well as making his Extra Credits Gadget more reliable and active.

• Gadget 1: Cheat Cartridge
  8-Bit teleports to his Damage Booster.

  • Buffied: Fully heals the damage booster, and heals 8-Bit for 3600.

• Gadget 2: Extra Credits (Rework):
  8-Bit fires 18 projectiles. This can now be used during main attack, and is aimable.

  • Buffied: 8-Bit gains infinite ammo during Hypercharge and can interrupt his main attack by firing a new main attack.

Meg

For Meg, we wanted to lean even more into the fantasy of piloting an awesome Mecha! Meg's Gadgets are getting a large rework, letting her more aggressively use the Mecha to make space or hold it. Her Super is also updated so building the Mecha does an area of effect of damage.

• Super: Mega Machina (Rework)
  Meg jumps into her Mecha suit for some colossal carnage! When entering the Mecha, it does 3000 damage to nearby opponents.
  
  Gadget 1: Jolting Volts (Rework):

  • Buffied: Meg gains a speed boost while the shield is active.

• Star Power 2: Heavy Metal (Rework)
  The Mecha recovers 1200 health for each enemy hit with Meg’s Super.

  • Buffied: Also steals 1 ammo from enemy Brawlers.

• Hypercharge: Tungsten Toughness (Updated for new Super)
  Feel the Steel has increased range, and enemies hit when Meg calls in her Mecha are slowed.

  • Buffied: The Mecha's attacks explode when striking an enemy, dealing damage in a small area. While out of Mecha, Meg's attacks fire an extra projectile and home in on enemies.

Max

Max's Buffies are focused on leaning more into her support class, giving her new tools to buff her allies and have a full speedy squad!

• Gadget 1: Phase Shifter (now aimable):
  Max dashes forward, becomes immune to all damage while dashing.

  • Buffied: Max can dash again 3 sec after the first dash.

• Gadget 2: Sneaky Sneakers (Quality of Life rework)
  Max throws a lightning bolt. If she reactivates the Gadget, or after 3 seconds, she blinks back to the lightning bolt and recovers any damage taken since it was placed.

  • Buffied: When blinking back, Max refills her ammo and heals nearby allies for the same amount as herself.

• Star Power 1: Super Charged (Rework)
  Hitting an enemy with her Main Attack extends the duration of her Super by 0.25 sec.

  • Buffied: Teammates affected by her Super gain a shield for 4 sec.

  Max reloads faster while moving.

  • Buffied: Gain a speed boost when hitting enemies with Faster Blaster.

• Hypercharge: Unlimited Energy

  • Buffied: Faster Blaster charges Max and nearby allies' Super when hitting enemies.

Surge

Surge's Buffies are focused on giving him more active ways of charging his Super, and letting him be even more powerful once he has leveled up! He's also getting a brand-new Hypercharge.

  Surge's Power surges! Increasing his Super charge rate by 30% for 5 sec.

A general note for Brawlers receiving changes to their main attack damage: unless otherwise noted, they keep the same number of attacks to charge their Supers, as before.

Buffs

Piper

• Health increased from 2500 to 2800

• Main Attack max damage increased from 1700 to 1800

Piper has been outshone by other marksmen for some time. To give her more power, extra health will help with trading, and Main attack damage will give her a wider scope of Brawlers she can quickly take down.

Mandy

• Main Attack damage increased from 1300 to 1400

• Star Power - Hard Candy: Shield increased from 40% to 50%

Similar to Piper, Mandy has fallen out of consideration when choosing marksmen after her Super/Hyper charge damage changes. We don't want to have her one shotting every squishy Brawler that spawns in, but we do want to allow her to have more damage when competing with other marksmen.

Gale

• Super damage increased from 600 to 800

Gale should be shining in such an aggressive meta but his overall strength is a bit too low for him to be a desirable pick. Extra damage to his Super should allow him to pressure aggressive Brawlers and take over the map more.


Tara

• Main Attack reload speed decreased from 2000 to 1800

Tara's core kit is still incredibly powerful but she lacks the consistency to shine, so we want to give her a bit more uptime on her damage to allow for more control and pressure.

Shelly

• Star Power - Shell Shock: Slow changed from 350 to 55%

• Gadget - Fast Forward: Cooldown decreased from 20s to 16s

Similar to Gale, Shelly is a fantastic counter to aggressive metas but is falling a bit short in her ability to overcome such potent aggression. To give her a bit more pressure and mobility we're giving her more frequency in her dashing and more control with Shell Shock.

Dynamike

• Reload speed reduced from 1600 to 1400

Alongside Marksman, throwers are struggling in an aggression heavy meta. With these changes Mike will have more pressure and control on the map.

Larry & Lawrie

• Super damage increased from 150 to 200

• Super - Lawrie HP increased from 3000 to 3300

Similar to Mike we want some extra power in throwers, for Larry we want to give his Twin some extra oomph with more damage and survivability to let him exert more pressure once he's ramped into his Super.


Sprout

• Main Attack reload speed reduced from 1700 to 1500

• Main Attack damage increased from 1040 to 1100

Sprout needs some more consistency and baseline damage to help it shine more when the opportunity for picking it arises. More reload speed will help those threatening explosions rain in more often, and be more potent when landing them.


Barley

• Super projectile speed increased from 1504 to 1700

• Hyper Super projectile speed increased from 2104 to 2300

Barley has got some decent use in modes like hotzone at the moment with the options of damage or healing, we feel the main thing holding him back at the moment is how quickly he can get his damage and control out so we're tuning up the projectile speeds of both his Super forms.

Juju

• Super - GriGri's HP increased from 3600 to 4000

Juju's main attack is doing some great work, but Grigri is a bit too weak to be a competitive pet. The extra HP should help Grigri stand its ground and let Juju control the map much better.

Grey

• Gadget - Grand Piano: Speed of Piano reduced from 2500 to 1500

• Main Attack damage increased from 1160 to 1280

Gray's core kit is still great in specific team comp's but lacks the fire power to be used unless paired with another Brawler that can make full use of his portals. Some baseline damage and evening out the power of his gadgets should help him feel more consistent and versatile.

Surge

• Movement Speed at Level 0 increased from 650 to 680

• Speed bonus from Level 1 decreased from 170 to 140

Surge is often struggling to get out of his first stage so we're evening out a bit of the bonuses gained from stage one and putting them into stage zero to help with a bit more immediate power.

Starr Nova

• Super - Main Attack damage increased from 1000 to 1100

• Health increased from 3700 to 4000

• Star Power - Mystical Star Technique: Healing increased from 162 to 216

Starr Nova is having a fairly tough time compared with other assassins with larger burst windows, as well as struggling to get meaningful trading in with a combination of short range and average HP. In addition, her Mystical Star Technique isn't hitting the bar in terms of value, so some extra healing should allow it to be a more competitive decision between the Star Powers.

Buzz

• Super charge rate increased from 96 to 100

• Hyper charge rate increased from 25 to 30

Assassins and aggression drive the meta, but nobody's invited Buzz out for fun. He's quite close to where we want him so some slight buffs to availability of Super and hyper will help him dive in more regularly.

Lou

• Main Attack projectile size increased from 50 to 60

Lou's main attack is often difficult to get full value of. We don't want to touch too much of his power as he can be extremely oppressive when too strong so more reliability in him landing main attack should help him shine more without dominating the map.

Carl

• Main Attack damage increased from 740 to 820

Carl is Mr. Consistent, rarely weak or low impact but at the moment just not impactful enough to be a strong consideration when compared to the current cast of damage dealers and anti-tanks. Some extra baseline damage should help him shine more often.

Pearl

• Main Attack heat consumed when attacking reduced from 450 to 380

Recent updates to Pearl's heat has made it more difficult for her Star Powers to shine, so we're reducing the baseline consumption of heat in base attack to give a bit more space for her to stay above the 80% threshold.

R-T

• Main Attack(Eat Static) - Damage increased from 740 → 1240
  

After recent Bug fixes with R-T’s mark we can safely buff his Super damage back to it’s previous state!

Nerfs

Mortis

• Gadget — Combo Spinner: Cooldown increased from 15s to 18s

• Gadget — Combo Spinner: Bonus damage to low health enemies decreased from 50% to 30%

• Gadget — Creature of the Night: Damage and healing reduced from 760 to 700

Mortis is often the go-to assassin and has been for some time. He has incredibly high burst potential with his gadgets so these changes will bring that down, as well as the frequency he has access to them. With the reduction to Combo spinner's damage he should have less situations where he can fully take down a Brawler with only two main attacks and his Gadget.

Colette

• Gadget - Na Ah: Cooldown increased from 17s to 22s

• Star Power - Mass Tax: Damage reduction during Super lowered from 75% to 60%

• Super charge rate reduced from 100 to 90

Colette's become a strong pick in most modes and maps with her Buffies. Being a bit too versatile we want to tone down how often she has access to her Super, the extra survivability Mass Tax gives her, and the frequency she can use that potent charm. These changes should keep her strong, but less overwhelming.

Crow

• Main Attack poison duration reduced from 4s to 3s

• Main Attack reload speed increased from 1400 to 1600

• Main Attack damage increased from 320 to 420

• Health reduced from 3000 to 2800

• Hypercharge - Main Attack returning damage reduced from -30% to -40%

Crow, similar to Colette, is incredibly safe in most modes and maps. To bring down his overall power we’re taking out some of his consistent poke damage and vision control with reducing the poison duration, making him more fragile with less HP, and reducing his damage uptime with reducing his reload speed. In addition, we feel his Hyper charge has a bit too much burst with the Buffies so we’re pulling back a bit of the bonus damage.


Leon

• Gadget - Lollipop Drop: Health reduced from 1500 to 1000

Leon has been a stalwart of the meta since his Buffies, with Lollipop drop being at the forefront of it. Often used in situations the rest of his kit isn't ideal just for the potent power attached to the Gadget. Bringing down the health of this should make it much easier to deal with and lower its prevalence across the game.

Chester

• Super explosion damage reduced from 1880 to 1600

• Hyper Super explosion damage reduced from 1880 to 1600

• Gadget - Candy Beans: Damage boost reduced from 25% to 20%

• Gadget - Candy Beans: Reload speed reduced from 200 to 150
  

Chester is incredibly versatile and safe. He's an ideal counter to much of the current meta so we don't want to be too heavy handed on him as the meta shifting will likely also means he loses some of his value, but we do want to tone down some of the potency he has when rolling high on his Candy beans Gadget, as well as the burst damage he has attached to his wall breaking supers.

Edgar

• Gadget - Let's Fly: Cooldown increased from 14s to 18s

• Star Power - Fisticuffs: Healing from take down reduced from 30% to 20%

• Hyper charge rate reduced from 40 to 33

With his updated Let's Fly Gadget, and Buffies Edgar can completely roll over squishy team comps and leave fairly unscathed. We want to lower the frequency that he can jump in with Let's fly, as well as how healthy he's able to stay when jumping in for a pick on squishy Brawlers. These should make picking when you jump in more meaningful and less frequent while still powerful. In addition, his Hyper Charge is extremely powerful but comes up too often for how much strength it has.

Mina

• Main Attack 3 damage reduced from 2000 to 1800

• Gadget - Windmill: Duration reduced from 1.5s to 1s

Mina is incredibly difficult to use which we love, she's a high skill high reward Brawler. However we felt that her final hit of the main attack was too strong especially when paired with a well timed Super to often leave the opponent unable to react. In addition windmill is allowing her to be a bit too reliable in modes that would normally not favor her like hotzone so we'll be cutting back some of it's power.

Ruffs

• Hyper charge rate reduced from 40 to 35

Ruffs similar to Chester is a Brawler that is reaping the benefits of a meta that favours him. As such we don't want to take too much power out of his kit with the main aim being lowering how often he can hand out free Hyper Charges.

Meeple

• Gadget - Rage Quit: Cooldown increased from 18s to 20s

• Gadget - Rage Quit: Radius decreased from 2000 to 1600

Meeple has crept up as a great counter to an aggressive meta, largely through their space control and the safety that Rage Quit grants them when an assassin dives in on them. These changes will keep much of that power in their kit but tone down how well they're countering many of the assassins.

Shade

• Hypercharge rate reduced from 40 to 34

Shade is another Brawler we have seen step up a ton with the last round of balancing. He's in a fairly healthy spot being a great late pick in draft and Super potent in specific maps and modes, but he's getting his hyper a bit too easily at the moment and we want to slow down how often he gets it.

Lumi

• Gadget - Grim and Frostbitten: Duration reduced from 3.9s to 3s

• Gadget - Grim and Frostbitten: Size decreased from 700 to 600

In the right hands Lumi is one of, if not the strongest Brawler around. We want to make sure she doesn't end up in a position of being unusable again, but want to lower the amount of space control and pressure she can exert across the map with her Grim and Frostbitten Gadget

Najia

• Super charge from Super reduced from 80 to 50

• Hypercharge - Health of snakes reduced from 2000 to 1500

Najia is overall in a much much healthier spot as of late but could still use some tuning down around her Super and hyper. With these changes she’ll have a much harder time looping supers, and her Hypercharge snakes should be considerably more manageable.

Pierce

• Gadget - Bottomless Mags: Cooldown increased from 18s to 22s

• Gadget - You Only Brawl Twice: Cooldown increased from 12s to 18s

Pierce is still the go to Marksman in 90% of cases due to a combination of incredible safety against aggressive Brawlers , and a huge amount of pressure with looping his last shots. We want to keep him feeling like a great Marksman and reward amazing aim, but lower that safety and reliability of looping last shots by lowering how available they both are.

Bolt

• Main Attack - Max damage reduced from 900 → 760

• Super - Damage increased from 550 → 700

• Super Charge rate from Super → Reduced from 100 → 90

• Star Power - Unstoppaball - Bolt is immune to crowd control and gains 15% top speed during Super → Bolt is immune to crowd control for 1 seconds after activating his Super.

Bolt is zooming around at the speed of sound, but is doing a bit too much damage and too difficult to slow down when paired with the Unstoppaball starpower. We’re going to shrink the window of Unstoppaball’s CC immunity, as well as move some of his main attack damage into the Super trail to make his immediate damage when rolling into a map less snowbally.

Changes

Spike

• Main Attack damage increased from 490 to 540

• Super charge rate decreased from 106 to 90 (now 4 attacks instead of 3)

• Star Power - Fertilize: Healing increased from 50% to 75%

Griff

• Gadget - Coin Shower: Damage increased from 200 to 300

• Gadget - Coin Shower: Cooldown reduced from 20s to 15s

• Gadget - Coin Shower - Duration increased from 5s to 6s

• Gadget - Piggy Bank: Max explosion range reduced from 1200 to 1000

• Star Power - Keep the Change: Now shoots a 4th salvo in the same amount of time as 3

Damian

• Super: Speakers now break after bouncing an enemy Brawler

• Super: Damage from speakers increased from 600 to 800

• Hypercharge: Damage increased from 400 to 600

New seasonal game modes are coming with this update, including two cooking-themed modes and a brand-new PvE one!

Cooking Modes (Pve + PvP)

Two new game modes that combine cooking with Brawling! Teams have a set of orders that they need to complete to win.

Each order has a recipe with 3-5 ingredients that need to be gathered and placed into a cooking station (Wok). Ingredients are held by delivery bots roaming around the map. 

There are 10 different ingredient types:

• Noodle

• Chili

• Mushroom

• Carrot

• Pak Choi

• Garlic

• Fish

• Shrimp

• Egg

• Soy Sauce
  

No "wrong ingredients" can be placed in the wok, only ones found in available recipes.

Combat Cooking (PvE)

Played by a single team of 3 players! Players have 3 orders to complete before time runs out.

Delivery bots are protected by strong guard bots, with 3 different guard bot types.

Food Fight (PvP)

Two teams of 3 players! Both teams have the same 3 orders to complete and compete against each other, fighting over ingredients.

The first team to complete all orders wins the game. If time runs out, the team with more orders completed wins. If both teams have the same amount, overtime starts and the first team to complete a recipe wins.

Mecha Guard

Mecha Guard is a brand-new PvE mode hitting Brawl Stars later this update! Players will work together to carry and charge up a battery for Meg's Mecha, fighting off hordes of enemies and gaining power-ups as they progress. When reaching the end, they'll have a fully charged-up Mecha join them for an epic battle against a random giant boss enemy (a scaled-up version of one of the enemies).

• Skins updated to match: Corrupted Sprout, True Gold Sprout, and True Silver Sprout

• Fixed Lola’s base damage incorrectly being 150%.

• Fixed an issue where Colette's Super aiming indicator didn’t match her actual travel distance.

• Fixed an issue where some players Daily Streaks would not progress.

The adidas Starr Cup is the first football Community Event where players come together to build their own Brawl Ball teams and compete in a full-blown tournament for the ultimate prize: the title of adidas Champion! On top of this Title, you can also get a free Brawler, a free Skin, Chaos Drops, and more!

The Event starts now and ends July 1 (final rewards delivered by July 2), featuring NPC Brawler teams, two real Community teams, and a Grand Final rematch that'll decide everything! Let's goooo 🔥

The Brawl Stars Community will be split into 2 teams, and before the matches start, the Community will decide which teams they are (choosing logos, names, etc.).

Over the first 2 days, both teams will vote to build their teams from scratch:

• Day 1 | Pick Your Name:

  • Mix and match words from two pools (adjectives + nouns) to vote on your team's name.

• Day 2 | Design Your Badge:

  • Choose your badge shape, color, and icon to represent your team throughout the tournament.

THE TOURNAMENT

Once the teams are formed, the adidas Starr Cup Tournament kicks off, a 12-day competition split across 2 stages.

STAGE 1 | GROUP STAGE (June 20 - June 25)

• The tournament runs with 3 group matches. Some are against NPC Brawler teams, featuring Brawlers from the Ranger Ranch trio, Candy Stand, and more. But don't let that fool you, the competition is real!

How do matches work?

• Each match lasts 2 days. During that time, your team needs to fill the Community bar before the opponent does, and the way you do it is by winning Super Brawl Ball matches, a new Game Mode! The NPC teams have their own bars that fill over time, so make sure your team stays ahead of theirs!

GROUP MATCH 3 (June 24 to 25)

• This is the first real showdown: Community Team 1 vs. Community Team 2, and it is your first shot at settling the score!

STAGE 2 | ELIMINATION STAGE (June 26 - July 1)

After the Group Stage:

• Quarter-Finals

  (June 26 to 27)

• Semi-Finals

  (June 28 to 29)

• Grand Finals

  (June 30 to July 1),

  Community Team 1 vs. Community Team 2

  The rematch!

In the Grand Finals, both teams race to fill their bar first. There's no waiting for time to run out; whoever fills it first wins the adidas Starr Cup Tournament!

To keep things spicy, on the second day of each match, there'll be an adidas Half-Time Challenge, which will earn you a bonus reward on top of everything else. Every 2 days by 08:00 UTC, we will post a short video with more info, so stay tuned to the event screen and our socials!

Here's a list of the rewards you can get throughout the event, plus the upgraded versions if the Community completes the adidas Half-time challenges:

• 1000 XP Doublers or Brawler Jae-yong (1000 Credits fallback)

• 3000 Bling or Gridiron Otis Skin

• Mega Trophy Box or Ultra Trophy Box

• 5 Chaos Drops or 10 Chaos Drops

• 1000 Coins or 2000 Coins

• 1000 Power Points or 2000 Power Points

We're giving away 1 MILLION COINS + 1 MILLION POWER POINTS to a total of 10 players!

How to participate?

• Share a daily video on socials (Instagram, X, Reddit, or TikTok) showing off your best Super Ball goal!

• Use the hashtags: #adidas #BrawlStars

• The winners will be contacted after the event ends, which might take a few days.

Good luck, everyone!

Damian - Mythic - Tank

Damian LOVES to make noise. He fronts a band with his brother Draco, but music puts him into an uncontrollable rage, where he destroys anything in sight! His shows usually end with him smashing everything near the stage… including other Brawlers.

• Trait: Charges Super from damage received.

• Attack (Power Trio): Damian throws a vicious punch. After 2 punches in a row, his next attack is an explosive kick that knocks back enemies and sets them on fire. After a delay, this fire explodes and spreads to nearby enemies.

• Super (Mosh Pit): Damian leaps and creates a personal Mosh Pit. Inside the pit, enemies are knocked back when hitting speakers, dealing 1400 Damage.

• Gadget (Spiritual Healing): Damian throws his microphone to a target location. The first teammate to pick it up is healed.

• Gadget (Wall of Sound): Damian summons a temporary wall of indestructible amps. 

• Star Power (Crowdkill): Knocking a target into a wall stuns them.

• Star Power (Vulgar Display of Punch): Damian has a flaming fist during his Super, which burns enemies.

• Hypercharge (Jump in the Fire): Damian's Super also sets the ground on fire when he lands, dealing damage per second to enemies caught in his mosh pit!

In the Starr Nova Event, players can unlock the Void Master Finx Skin for free and level up Starr Girl Transformations to be used in selected game modes. The Transformation modifier is active in Featured Game Modes and randomly selected Trophy Modes.

• When the Starr Nova modifier is active, crystals spawn during the match. Collect one to transform into one of 5 Starr Girls for a limited time.

• Starr Girls have a unique kit (variants of Starr Nova, Spike, Bea, Juju, Amber) and are much stronger than the base Brawler.

• The Transformation has a telegraphed visual effect before it completes.

• There are 2 modifiers: one with Starr Nova and one without (she will be introduced during the event).

• Starr Girls start at Power Level 11 and can be upgraded to Power Level 30 by opening Nova Drops.

• Exception: Starr Nova starts at Max Power. Starr Nova’s crystal is introduced in Week 2 of the event.

• Getting a Starr Girl level up from a Nova Drop gives a damage activation for that girl on the Event screen. Tapping it triggers an attack which deals damage to Finx. Deal enough damage to Finx and you will earn his Skin! After unlocking the Void Master Finx Skin, you receive fallback rewards instead.

Buffs

Lumi

• Main Attack projectile speed increased from 3200 to 3500.

• Base Health increased from 3100 to 3500.

Lumi’s been one of the most underperforming Brawlers for the past few months, to a fairly massive degree. As such we want to give her some changes to let her core kit shine, with the goal of letting her deploy the utility/space control of her gadgets faster, as well as more ability to trade with increased base health.

Lola

• Super damage falloff reduced from 50% to 35% when Ego is near Lola.

Lola has been performing fairly average to below average, and could use some love to help her feel more competitive. The aim of these changes is to give her more power in space control with Ego, as well as making it more forgiving to use.

Fang

• Base Health increased from 4500 to 4800.

Fang is a little bit too feast or famine at the moment. The goal with this change is to let him more safely play aggressive and pressure/out trade more Brawlers.

Surge

• Super charge rate gained from Super increased from 70 to 75.

Surge is nearly in a healthy spot, just needing a little bit more oomph to let him ramp faster and have more presence. This change will aid him in pressing his advantage when using Super aggressively making for easier looping/cycling.

Maisie

• Star Power - Pinpoint Precision damage increased from 20% to 25%.

Marksman is a fairly competitive field these days, and Maisie is falling just behind the curve. With a bit more damage at max range, she should hopefully be able to compete a bit more with other popular Brawlers.

Draco

• Super damage resistance increased from 15% to 20%.

• Super movement speed increased from 15% to 20%.

In a tank heavy meta, Draco just isn’t tanky/threatening enough to compete with the rest. These changes will aid in him claiming back some of that space he used to have with incredible pressure and space control once he’s ramped into Super.

Jae-Yong

• Gadget - Time for a Slow Song cooldown reduced from 15s to 12s.

Overall Jae is doing good, but his gadgets are feeling pretty uneven in power for most cases and the aim here is to make them both feel more competitive.

Darryl

• Super damage increased from 400 to 660.

Darryl is situationally very powerful, but could use more versatility and threat when there are some other VERY prominent tanks in the meta.

Gigi

• Main Attack movement speed bonus increased from 30% to 35%.

• Main Attack max ammo increased from 8 to 10.

Gigi could use a bit more mobility to aid her in dodging enemy projectiles, and chasing down enemy Brawlers. With these the aim is to let her more regularly use her main attack as a movement tool, and be able to deal with some larger health pool Brawlers.

Glowy

• Main Attack range increased from 20 to 22.

The last round of changes were a bit too harsh on Glowy leaving him still a great healer but incredibly niche. Bringing him back to the middle ground to let him still have a wider impact but not over run every map.

Nerfs

Najia

• Najia’s main attack’s second projectile no longer auto-aims at enemy Brawlers after the first projectile is fired without input. Tapping at the right time still aims at the closest Brawler.

• Snake base HP reduced from 1,600 to 1,200 for both Super and Star Power snakes.

• Snakes summoned by her Super and Star Power no longer explode when defeated. They will only explode when striking enemy Brawlers.

Najia’s main attack is incredibly forgiving, and FAR too useful as a tool for gathering information and scouting bushes. Additionally her snakes are super difficult to deal with for a high number of brawlers requiring multiple ammo to take them down, and Melee brawlers having little counterplay as they can’t destroy them safely. With all of these she should be more reliable for melee brawlers to deal with and sneak up on.

Leon

• Bug Fix: Movement speed bonus from Smoke Trails Star Power and Lollipop Drop no longer stack.

• Base Health reduced from 3600 to 3300.

Leon is consistently one of the highest performing Brawlers being a safe, consistent, damage threat and having amazing team buffs with his Gadget. With the recent bugfixes, and some base health reduction he should feel more like a glass cannon assassin that needs to rely on strong positioning to make the most of his kit.

Ziggy

• Main Attack projectile delay increased from 700 to 750.

• Super charge rate reduced from 85 to 80.

• Gadget - Electric Shuffle cooldown increased from 13s to 17s.

Ziggy has quickly become one of the more powerful Brawlers in recent meta, mainly having much more consistency in landing his main attack making him an incredibly oppressive controller. We don’t want to fully roll back to where the main attack time was before it’s buff, but want to add a bit more time to allow for easier dodging. In addition his Electric Shuffle Gadget provides a ton of pressure and needs a bit longer cooldown for that amount of power it has.

Grom

• Main Attack damage reduced from 1140 to 1040.

• Star Power - X-Factor extra damage increased from 30% to 35%.

Grom has been a progressing player demon for ages, but as of recent has been climbing in both usage and win rate in higher levels. As of recently, he has even become a top 15 win rate Brawler in Legend 3+ ranked matches. The aim of these changes is to allow him to still hold onto a majority of his power, but move it to have a higher skill requirement in landing his damage to relieve some of that pressure he applies to progressing players but allow high level players the ability to succeed with him.

Mortis

• Star Power - Coiled Snake damage reduction reduced from 40% to 35%.

Mortis is a mega popular Brawler, in addition to that however he has still been holding a very high win rate. This change will make him feel a bit less comfortable when engaging enemies with his fully charged dash and push him to be more selective with his openings.

Pierce

• Super damage reduced from 1600 to 1400.

• Star Power - Mission Swimpossible slow reduced from 30% to 25%.

We finally found Pierce! With the introduction of his Hyper Charge his Super is feeling too oppressive, as well as Mission Swimpossible being his overwhelmingly dominant starpower . These changes should give him a slight nudge down in power, while still keeping his core kit feeling powerful.

Clancy

• Main Attack range reduced from 25 to 23.

Crab was a BIT too over tuned with the last round of changes. Overall his stage 3 is feeling great and matches his fantasy well, but it’s become a bit too easy and reliable to get to with the additional range and HP from the last round of changes. Pulling back his range will lower the cases where he will be a good pick and his overall positive matchup spread leaving us with a more healthy crustacean.

BiBi

• Star Power - Home Run attack bonus damage reduced from 20% to 15%.

• Gadget - Vitamin Booster healing from next attack reduced from 60% to 50%.

BiBi is still an absolute terror, boasting the highest win rate in upper levels of play even after the last round of changes. With a reduction to her burst and survivability BiBi should be more regularly landing triples instead of home runs with a higher chance at getting struck out.

Changes

• The poison cloud now deals extra damage to Brawlers standing inside it. The deeper you are in the poison cloud, the higher the damage!

Boss Fights: Void Colette & Void Master Finx

Two brand-new Boss Fights are here with all-new challenges! All Boss Fights are now 5 players.

Void Colette: Hunt down dark book nests or risk being overrun by mini Void Colettes!

Void Master Finx: A two-phased Boss Fight. When Finx is defeated the first time, he comes back even stronger as the Void Master! A central tower alternates between aiding and hurting the Brawlers. Finx also spawns his cat friends (Kit) to help take down the Brawlers.

• Speedrun Score: After defeating the Boss at the greatest difficulty, you can see your best time at that score.

• When a teammate is defeated, they now drop all of their Power Cubes instead of only half.

New Shiba-themed basic attack VFX, a completely reworked ultimate projectile with an adorable new Shiba design, and overall VFX brought up to modern Brawl Stars standards.

• Look for Shiba Inu Nita in the shop during the Golden Week celebration!
  

Legacy Skin VFX Updates:

• We're exploring ways to revisit some older skins whose visual effects haven't aged as well. Shiba Inu Nita is the first skin to receive this treatment, and we may update additional legacy skins in the future when the timing and opportunity are right. Stay tuned!
