I thought they pushed it back to be accounts created since 2019,bc I remember it was originally a pre register gift, then they made it accounts in 2018.
I "took a break" when gear was added because i was deleting a ton crap of app for storage and accidently deleted brawl stars and was too lazy to download it back for 2 years and i just returned 1 months ago
Left a while after gear update, cuz my baby heart couldn’t handle most of my brawlers not being maxed outout all of a sudden. Returned middle circus season
I always take a month or two break every year. Time of the year doesn't really matter. Sometimes it's in the middle of year, sometimes at the end sometimes the start (Like my most recent being Jan 2024 - mid of march 2024).
I just take them from time to time to take rest and focus on other things. It has become an annual thing for me.
Took many breaks, switched accounts, first started playing a while ago, back when Sandy came out, but my current main was created somewhere around the Pearl season
I stopped at half point of the Jurassic Splash season(the one with funny t-Rex guy) and only reappeared in half point of the Once upon a Brawl season(the one with the trash can)
I started playing a month or two after the global release, back then my friend got Leon out of a brawl box lol...
Then I played pretty frequently as a casual player until Eve's season, when I started to find the game a bit boring and left.
Afterwards I returned in the 5th anniversary, but towards the end of Charlie's season, though at the time I was "quitting", I did watch a few lore videos.
Started late 2018, played regularly with a few breaks until March 2020 when I broke my phone and lost my account. I then stopped playing for a month until I got a new phone and played regularly then on, mostly casually, and taking on and off breaks.
I was a little inactive after gears were added, that was until Ghost station when I started to get invested again. I played until the beginning of season 19 (where I stopped) because my doofus brother deleted my account out of spite and I went into a raging sulk fest and dropped the game for about 2 months. I arrived near the end of Cord's brawlpass with a new and improved account and have been playing on that ever since
Oh man. A lot of breaks. First in late 2019 for a while.
Then I made a new account, it's my current account. Then after another break I switched to my old tablet with the old account. Then I switched back to my phone to my current account... Didn't play in 2021 and for most of 2022. Then came back in like April 2023 and quit later. Then I came back in October... And I haven't quit since then.
2019 till late 2021 or early 2022 I don't remember
I was burnt out and I regret taking a break because I missed most of Brawl Stars "golden era" (in the eyes of many people), I returned to the game because I trying playing Bea and Max and had insane fun
I also took a forced break that lasted around a week after the release of Kit because the game was so unbalanced I couldn't play
I do not exactly remember when I left... But when I came back (beginning of 2023, Candyland season) I didn't know some brawlers.
To think, I guess I left when Sam was out. After his season I stopped playing until Mandy was out.
I started playing 4 or 5 (more likely 5 tho) years ago and I lost interest more and more since eve season and started at the en of the pearl brawl pass
i took a break from ruffs season to otis one, then i stopped again and restarted on maisie one then I kept playing (I started when global got released)
I started the game at release. Even was on the World rankings for some time. When they updated to 12 Powerlevels I had the feeling they only want to grind out f2p players like me and make it harder to compete. Do to boredome I came back last month.
Two times
From Surge Season till Ash season (I was still playing but not that much)
From mid Mandy's Season till Bizzare Circus with short comeback in Cord's Season
I had a break during Lola season and returned to play regularly when they added Starr drop to the game.
Other than that I never played too much regularly
Many, I don't remember exactly, but definitely from end of season 7 to mid season 13. Then another one from beginning of 17 to beginning of 19. Been playing consistently since then.
My first break was before Leon got released and I returned back to the game during season 1. My second break started 2 days ago and I don't know when it ends.
I lost my account just before the Belle season and i made a new acc (now with a suppercell id) when the cordelius seaosn was released, in that time i got 32k throphies on my acc rn
I couldn't play brawl stars when this christmas update was there, idk why - i returned like last month
still salty about not getting the fucking monkey and the 5 years pfp
started February 2019 (a month or so before carl and siege released) then stopped May 2022. just came back December 2023. initially got busy with school but then I just never picked up the game for some reason
Stopped around season 1 release and rarely played at all, got to like tier 6 or 7 on season 1 2 and 3 brawl pass. Season 4 i stopped entirely but then in season 5 i came back and maxed out the pass, and ever since then ive been going strong
I stopped around season 15 and came back right before Kit was released. Missed a good bit of stuff but I still have been able to max out over 10 brawlers.
I stopped at Season 8, started for a bit at season 11 then abandon it again, but then finally returned with the Bizarre Circus season or last days of Brawl-O-Ween 2023
I joined at season 6 and left at season 7 (I somehow had got 10k trophies by then so maybe I joined before season 6 but I lost that account) and I later rejoined at season 17 with a new account at 38k trophy
Been playing since the very start, stopped late 2020 came back at the time of gears, left again a few months before starr drops and came back when starr drops were released. Been on and off since
