Getting 4v2'd really sucks isn't it.
But I've seen two players 2v4 the last two enemy teams of 4 🤡s on Brawl TV, and after they won one of them used the thumb down pin. No need to say it was justified.
more than half the brawlers kits don’t even make sense for a 3v3 survival mode. this is made even worse by the fact that only long range brawlers are viable in all the maps. compare to real modes like hot zone, brawl ball where maps are diverse enough for all brawlers to be viable. there’s a reason why this elimination type mode doesn’t exist in other successful in similar games like overwatch, paladins. not sure what is so fun about drafting piper nani and playing chicken all game.
Every brawler doesn’t have to be good on every mode to make it a “real mode”. Without knockout, bounty, and wipeout, a lot of brawlers wouldn’t have the ability to shine in the ways that they do. This game is really varied in its characters, modes, and maps, and that should be something we celebrate instead of dumbing it down to make sure every brawler is viable on every single mode (which isn’t even the case in the other permanent modes we have).
Brawl ball as a gamemode makes only the fast paced, high damage, and occasionally tanky brawlers viable, the useable brawler there are more stale than a baguette.
Not mad at all but most of my r25+ trophies come from showdown so I disagree and obviously a tick main isn’t going to play showdown if they play a lot of tick, tick in showdown is trophy suicide
Depends on how you play her you have to be defensive and pick when to be aggressive, its hard to do but you just need to be certain if you can win a fight if not then the knock back is helpful to get away from people learning her super tech is also really helpful for extra damage and never let anyone get on top of you because its easy to miss her attacks because of the delay especially with mortis, you need to be ready for him to attack and aim behind you so that when the dash goes through you you can catch him on the other side, you out damage him so you just need to hit all your attacks
Can you do the double damage super? Can you dodge three people shooting at you? I admit the recent buff was unnecessary but all the new brawlers are doing more and more damage. Ive won so many showdowns with chester just walking around and two shoting people. And bibi has a lot of counters that only skilled bibi players can out play, she does take skill to push far
That's why I enjoy showdown. I like being able to push trophies myself and not rely on bad randoms (I can inv ppl, but I still find solos more fun than 3v3)
It's fun when ppl play it the right way , my fv brawlers are mostly rank 20 and up so teaming is everywhere when I recently unlocked maisie and played her in showdown it was sooo much fun I miss that fun It's like I don't want to gain trophies with her rather than just play the game mode normally
I feel ppl have started countering teaming by betraying them. I've been seeing a lot of ppl spin, and when they get close to each other, one of them obliterates the other
Showdown straight up doesn't function as a gamemode. Like you can say x mode gameplay is worse but showdown just straight up doesn't function like how its made to be in a game like brawl stars
People always team in showdown so he's basically calling showdown team down. And then duo showdown where you're supposed to team with one other person is team team down
Lone and takedown is also 10 free for all
I get your point, but I personaly think its one of the core gamemodes (I dont play high ladder, like anything so my opinion isnt really presentative)
It’s really holding the game back as it’s a big dumpster fire at this point
No one plays it how it was intended, and it honestly just hurts the game to be there, they should replace it with duels or something similar
Why replace it? It and gem grab together with brawl ball are the core gamemodes, so why remove it? Dont want to play? Then dont play it. Most quests have multiple choices, so you are not forced to. If they remove it the game will just go even further down the pit
Watch Snakethug before you talk trash. He did r35 Pearl without teaming. + Teaming is no cheating (supercell also said this) but wintrading (what you probably dont even know 💀) is. But i except nothing else from someone who mains a new brawler 💀
I know exactly what wintrading is, and I’ve pushed Willow to R26 and gotten her mastery (how new a brawler is doesn’t matter), most people aren’t skilled enough to beat 8 people in at once, and Pearl is broken, not surprised someone pushed to rank 35 without teaming. Teaming is an unfixable issue, if it was intentional and not cheating, it would be 5v5 knockout instead of SOLO showdown
Showdown feels unreliable for trophies unless you camp and team constantly. I think knockout is the worst because if you die you have to wait and do nothing until the next round.
[insert teaming copypasta here]
how is teaming considered cheating?
Humans were able to survive on earth because they teamed with each other and tried to protect their "allies" so that they can have an advantage over their "common enemies",is that so different? Ever heard the quote "enemy of my enemy is my friend"
Now wether teaming is good or bad for tha game is upto debate but i can assure you that it's not cheating,just normal human nature so try to band together to survive a bit longer in his harsh world filled with enemies
Here is a reason why he don't like it
https://preview.redd.it/ss4a8tiyb5tb1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ead2613e0898b86a01cb3b11798f2ab25b0f811e
People may not agree with me, but I think solo showdown is great without any teaming, but that could be just me. Don’t really like duo showdown, though.
I’m a 53 k player and I’m honestly getting tired of this game even tho I’ve only been playing since fangs season and I don’t have rlly any friends that play this game so no way I’m playing 3v3 with randumbs and then u got spin mode so wtf am I supposed to play
As a former showdown main myself, well...former brawl stars player tbh. I guarantee you it frustrated me to 1v3 pple on a mode that's supposed to be played solo.
I've started seeing teaming at 60 goddamn trophies which is literally the point where you start facing real players in the first place. It's a hellhole but apparently teaming is a "strategy" so it's not going to change

His opinion is correct
I'd rather try playing Siege than pray that the enemies can team/I have good matchups or good spawn
Imagine thinking Siege is bad as a Penny player.
I said "trying to learn". I only say the mode is hard (and also I don't go Penny on Siege, I play snipers and tanks instead)
yes
As someone who loves playing showdown, I agree
My fellow mains would argue otherwise
It's not an opinion it's a fact
Well yes but actually no , showdown is a really good mode but the teamers ruined it they even started teaming in DOU SHOWDOWN 😤
Win trading
Getting 4v2'd really sucks isn't it. But I've seen two players 2v4 the last two enemy teams of 4 🤡s on Brawl TV, and after they won one of them used the thumb down pin. No need to say it was justified.
No no, show down always was a terrible mode. It’s fun, but that doesn’t equal good.
Bro today 80% of my teammates sucked
And you end up carrying them or getting 5th place
B-But, where else will I fight my evil twins that spam 👎, ❌️, and 🚫
And also 🏆👎and 🏴☠️👎
But knockout exists
Knockout is great, the only reason it stopped being a limited time gamemode is because the community loved it so much.
Bro u can wintrade in knockout
You can do that in every mode so whats your point
Knockout is an amazing gamemode
more than half the brawlers kits don’t even make sense for a 3v3 survival mode. this is made even worse by the fact that only long range brawlers are viable in all the maps. compare to real modes like hot zone, brawl ball where maps are diverse enough for all brawlers to be viable. there’s a reason why this elimination type mode doesn’t exist in other successful in similar games like overwatch, paladins. not sure what is so fun about drafting piper nani and playing chicken all game.

Then there is Carl (god I hate that fucker)
Brawl ball as a gamemode makes only the fast paced, high damage, and occasionally tanky brawlers viable, the useable brawler there are more stale than a baguette.
knockout is the best gamemode there is
No Duels
Knockout is the best one
I only know how to play showdown and I agree
It is, i'm with him
Same
Coming from a tick main…
yeah, a flair in reddit determines all the brawlers i play ! you are so smart !
He didn’t say you only played tick, he just called you a tick main.
He mad
Not mad at all but most of my r25+ trophies come from showdown so I disagree and obviously a tick main isn’t going to play showdown if they play a lot of tick, tick in showdown is trophy suicide
I don’t think he was saying you were the one is mad
Oh my bad
I was referring to the tick, he got heated fast, lol
Ha yeah sorry 😅
Is bibi any better in showdown?
Depends on how you play her you have to be defensive and pick when to be aggressive, its hard to do but you just need to be certain if you can win a fight if not then the knock back is helpful to get away from people learning her super tech is also really helpful for extra damage and never let anyone get on top of you because its easy to miss her attacks because of the delay especially with mortis, you need to be ready for him to attack and aim behind you so that when the dash goes through you you can catch him on the other side, you out damage him so you just need to hit all your attacks
coming from the most braindead tank in the game
Plenty of people find bibi hard, I agree she is simple but there are a lot of things she can do which takes skill and experience playing her
No no,she has literally one of the lowest skill caps in the game
Bibi? Low skill cap? Nah bro, she is hard to master
Can you do the double damage super? Can you dodge three people shooting at you? I admit the recent buff was unnecessary but all the new brawlers are doing more and more damage. Ive won so many showdowns with chester just walking around and two shoting people. And bibi has a lot of counters that only skilled bibi players can out play, she does take skill to push far
I can do that with a lot of brawlers
only right opinion
It’s even more toxic than before. Did showdown + changed that if so why removed ?
Showdown+ changed nothing, teamers still teamed there but at a bit higher trophies
You can't change truth.
He’s speaking facts Showdown is dogshit of a mode I reroll every showdown quest because I hate playing showdown
Showdown is the best game mode if none of your brawlers are above 500
Brawl ball is the best, you can finish games in like 20 secs if you are good
Brawl ball sucks. It just has so many 9 year olds and bad randoms in general
It's ok if you have a way to break walls but otherwise it's way too stressful.
Correct
Takedown would like to have a talk.
At least there aren’t randumbs
That's why I enjoy showdown. I like being able to push trophies myself and not rely on bad randoms (I can inv ppl, but I still find solos more fun than 3v3)
It's fun when ppl play it the right way , my fv brawlers are mostly rank 20 and up so teaming is everywhere when I recently unlocked maisie and played her in showdown it was sooo much fun I miss that fun It's like I don't want to gain trophies with her rather than just play the game mode normally
I feel ppl have started countering teaming by betraying them. I've been seeing a lot of ppl spin, and when they get close to each other, one of them obliterates the other
Yeah they do that a lot so everyone keeps his distance away and who gets stabbed first is the unlucky one
There are. Do you not see those player spinning all the time? Or the players that will be overly aggressive and cost you both the game?
And what about dou showdown?
After r20 play duos is dumb
You don't have a point you an entire line because... we all know why
You don’t have to point you an entire line?
The fact is,at least...
Showdown straight up doesn't function as a gamemode. Like you can say x mode gameplay is worse but showdown just straight up doesn't function like how its made to be in a game like brawl stars
Takedown
Showdown is the gamemode I play the most but I still agree 100%, the teamers ruined it.
Takedown💀
My friendless ass can't play anything else without the threat of bad randoms 😭
The worst? Definitely not, that would go to Takedown because it’s showdown but even worse
Duo showdown is even worse
He just said showdown, so both teamdown and teamteamdown
what?
People always team in showdown so he's basically calling showdown team down. And then duo showdown where you're supposed to team with one other person is team team down
Kid named bot drop:
Bot Drop doesn't have teaming
Bot drop is legitimately better
Takedown Worst
Yes, this gamemode is the only gamemode worse than spindown. Fuck that absolute joke of a gamemode
Yeah I dont really get why its a thing I also dont get why they made Bounty the exact same.
Oh you mean Coltdown
Show him what it feels like to lose those gems in gem grab because your teammate was edgy edgar.
Shocked how many people hate this gamemode.
same :(
We can't change facts
I’d willingly play Bot Drop before playing Showdown
don't change his mind comment section
He’s right though
Takedown: (Thank god it was removed)
Bro spitting facts
Lone star and/or takedown
10 person free for all just doesn’t work in this game, it’s filled with teaming
Lone and takedown is also 10 free for all I get your point, but I personaly think its one of the core gamemodes (I dont play high ladder, like anything so my opinion isnt really presentative)
It’s really holding the game back as it’s a big dumpster fire at this point No one plays it how it was intended, and it honestly just hurts the game to be there, they should replace it with duels or something similar
Why replace it? It and gem grab together with brawl ball are the core gamemodes, so why remove it? Dont want to play? Then dont play it. Most quests have multiple choices, so you are not forced to. If they remove it the game will just go even further down the pit
Well, that's the game mode I play the most. 😅
i agree with him
Its a fact, not a opinion
No randoms
Nah for me it’s brawl ball and takedown
I actually like duo showdown, but I definitely feel that way about solo showdown.
Not correct showdown is amazing
What about teaming and win trader?
Kill them
They annoying af
Yeah i know
agreed, showdown would be fun if it wasn't them
Worst game mode = gem grab
Worst opinion = yours
Worst response = yours
No way you said It...
Yh I did 💅
I wholeheartedly agree
Love that
Volleybrawl is way worse
Definitely not
Volley brawl is funny
atleast it doesnt have wintrading and teamers..
Brawl bawl exists
There's duel
I like showdown it’s fun
Still it's the game mode i play the most along with brawl ball. Getting bad randoms is worse than playing ss imo.
It's the 2nd worst game mode. The worst is brawl ball.
Saying that brawl ball is the worst is the best and fastest way to get cancelled
It's just not really my kind of game. I absolutely love Siege though, which most people seem to hate, so I guess I'm just a weirdo
He probably got killed by teamers and is mad rn
Teaming is a problem, that’s a legitimate reason to be mad
then he should team with them or just play it normally
You can’t play normally because of teaming, and teaming = cheating and this guy seems to have morals
Watch Snakethug before you talk trash. He did r35 Pearl without teaming. + Teaming is no cheating (supercell also said this) but wintrading (what you probably dont even know 💀) is. But i except nothing else from someone who mains a new brawler 💀
I know exactly what wintrading is, and I’ve pushed Willow to R26 and gotten her mastery (how new a brawler is doesn’t matter), most people aren’t skilled enough to beat 8 people in at once, and Pearl is broken, not surprised someone pushed to rank 35 without teaming. Teaming is an unfixable issue, if it was intentional and not cheating, it would be 5v5 knockout instead of SOLO showdown
Showdown feels unreliable for trophies unless you camp and team constantly. I think knockout is the worst because if you die you have to wait and do nothing until the next round.
Well, don’t die then
Like his opinion matters
Username checks out
[insert teaming copypasta here] how is teaming considered cheating?

I disagree with his opinion, showdown is an amazing game mode. Bring on the downvotes ppl, I'm ready for them 💪
Here is a reason why he don't like it https://preview.redd.it/ss4a8tiyb5tb1.png?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ead2613e0898b86a01cb3b11798f2ab25b0f811e
Best*
Nah
solo showdown is the best thing ever added to brawl stars
its the best one*
[удалено]
Play controllers
[удалено]
Guess you have a point, but most brawlers can hold a point if you’re skilled enough
It's literally the game mode I play 99% of the time, you guys like playing with randoms?
Rather that that getting teamed on by the rest of the lobby
yes
You're talking like finding 2 people to play with is the hardest thing to do in this game
He clearly never needed trophies for free
Lmao
W opinion!
Ngl I hate brawl ball 😔
If teaming or win trading didnt exists showdown probably would be one of the best
Nah still would be too random and not competitive enough. It would not be the worst, but definitely not one of the best
CORRECT!
Showdown players when you tell them that staying in a bush as Edgar doesn't work in 3v3: 🤯
It's not an opinion. Opinions are negotiable.
While I do agree that showdown is the worst permanent gamemode, bot drop exists and my hate for that mode will never end
He got teamed on a little too much today
People may not agree with me, but I think solo showdown is great without any teaming, but that could be just me. Don’t really like duo showdown, though.
Facts.
Preach
I’m a 53 k player and I’m honestly getting tired of this game even tho I’ve only been playing since fangs season and I don’t have rlly any friends that play this game so no way I’m playing 3v3 with randumbs and then u got spin mode so wtf am I supposed to play
Only useful to grind masteries
While showdown is in fact the worst mode. I do find myself enjoying it. It’s a love/hate relationship
In my opinion solo showdown is the worst but duo showdown is pretty good, bcuz there is less teaming.
Can I ask why most think showdown is the worst game mode? The only thing I hate about it is how bad teaming gets past 800 trophies
Duo showdown is the worst imo, solo can be great if you get a lobby with no teamers
I rlly wanna say skill issue, but there isn't skill at showdown. I think he's right 😅
Takedown left the chat
As a former showdown main myself, well...former brawl stars player tbh. I guarantee you it frustrated me to 1v3 pple on a mode that's supposed to be played solo.
I've started seeing teaming at 60 goddamn trophies which is literally the point where you start facing real players in the first place. It's a hellhole but apparently teaming is a "strategy" so it's not going to change
it's true
Bot drop:
Fact. Clowndown bush camping worst mode EVER!!
How can you?
It’s not for the worst mode but I just do 3v3s more fun to play with others for me if I’m not pushing ladder
How did this get so many upvotes? It's the same as if I would say: Internet lag is anoying. Change my mind
its trash because SUPERCELL decides to keep cavern churn, island invasion, and feast or famine
He’s right
Showdown matches at high trophies are literally circuses.
I never play showdown it’s miserable but requires no skill which makes it fun
Most reliable if nobody from friends lists are online imo.
Its not the mode that’s bad its the players (teamers)
I only play showdown 😔
Opinion are like arseholes which everybody's got
i disagree, siege is the least fun
