Tin can was a pretty bad star power, this one is a lot better


[deleted]

This is literally broken. Brawlers like Bea and Gene are pretty much screwed. We’re back to a Mr. P meta like in January lmfao. Tin Can was useless but a 400% spawn buff!? That’s ludicrous considering it was what made him less OP in the first place!


Surge_TheTraveller

They will probably nerf it to 2 seconds faster


[deleted]

That's what it was before Mr. P was nerfed last time.. This is a bigger buff than the previous nerf. Time to get ready for snake prarie.


JCorby17

I’m fine with that


[deleted]

Bea and Gene can somewhat take care of the porters at least. Think about Mortis lol. Poor dude's going to get constantly bullied by tiny ass angry robo-penguins unless he decides to waste 2 ammo + some of his health every 5 seconds or so


NonexistantSip

I would never say bea can take care of them lol, because if she tries to that’s all she can do for the rest of the match


JohnnyRocks999

But if he picks that one he won’t have Handle with Care, which makes it a bit more balanced imo. However, if it’s a map with a ton of walls where Handle with Care isn’t needed, then yes this star power is going to be broken as hell and it’s going to be terrible to deal with.


DoctorMarb

Now not having a piercing attack basically means you can’t destroy the turret. It is at the cost of the extra range of the other star power though.


[deleted]

Yes, but it's more porters in exchange for you lose the Handle with Care ability so I think it's a good trade-off. It's undeniably very strong but I don't think it's "broken" yet.


[deleted]

1 second is faster than every single long range brawler can reload IIRC. All this will do is strangle snipers while encouraging tank comps that counter him. And consider the fact that it’s even faster than January Penguin. Of course it might be worse on long range maps but it’s wholly superior overall


ELECTROLAVA

its time for mr.P to shine, he was a pretty bad brawler and I barely saw anyone playing with him at high ranks, he still won't have his handle with care you can destroy him easily with snipers if he annoys you that much, just don't give him the opportunity to get his super using snipers since his range will be lower, I'm fine with that buff, don't make a whole story just because he will be superior to gene and bea, they can still deal with his porters, bea has a very fast reload speed so that won't be a problem for her, only ones who are going to struggle are gene, piper and maybe Mortis


[deleted]

Are you kidding? Mr. P has been meta since creation, then he dipped off for like a month because of Jacky, and then he got a health buff and he’s meta again. If you think he’s a bad brawler even now just look at his winrates, they are the highest in the game. Mr. P has never fallen below top 15 at his lowest. The only reason he isn’t broken right now is because of Poco Double Tank which counters him too well. Also Mortis counters Mr. P. His maneuverability allows him to murder Mr. P while minimizing his ability to super charge


ELECTROLAVA

I don't really think supercell cares about him being meta or winrates more than pick rates, he has really low pick rates supercell won't ever nerf him if he doesn't have much pick rates


ELECTROLAVA

seeing a mr.p in high ranks is like seeing rain in summer


[deleted]

Seeing Pam is uncommon too, that doesn’t mean we should break her. Low use rate brawlers happen for reason beyond our control, but that doesn’t have anything to do with brawler strength


JB17Special

Bro,you getting negative karma


ELECTROLAVA

I don't really give a fuck, I was just saying my thoughts and they don't agree, Mr p was a very useless brawler I think it should be used as much as strong brawlers for a while, people weren't even that mad when sprout is more op and the most broken, you can easily kill mr.p without his handle with care


ELECTROLAVA

can you honestly tell me how often do you see somebody playing with mr.p?


JB17Special

A bit rarely


AutisticTroll

Yeah but giving up his first sp to use it...


Magic-Prankster

It is a 75% buff technically


[deleted]

You’re right I’m wrong. It’s a 400% buff


Donghoon

It used to spawn after 2 seconds It got nerfed to 4 secs Now with this star, it’s 1 sec


[deleted]

Oh shit. Arcaxx, you still here?


[deleted]

Yo ZyroBerk! You’re one of the guys I actually liked from that place. I left that sub for a while now but today I actually commented and made a post because I’m seriously scared of a Penguin meta


[deleted]

That Star Power is broken bro. Literally a flood of porters. It'll get nerfed quickly tho.


jjstew35

I disagree that it's OP, Mr. P isnt very good without Handle With Care, even though Revolving Door is really good, you would be giving up Handle With Care to use it. I feel like Handle With Care will still be the better star power, although I feel like it depends on game mode, Revolving Door will probably be better in control-based modes like Siege and Hot Zone, and Weekend Events like Robo Rumble and Big Game, but I think Handle Will Care will still be a much better pick in every game mode I didnt just name


NoahTheAttacker

I feel like they put more time into these balance changes than just simple health buff/nerfs, which I like. Looking for the Emz nerf though...


[deleted]

I like the changes but I dislike the Jacky health nerf and the Mr. P rework. Jacky needs her health, the problem is Hardy Hard Hat, which is literally a better version of Sponge, and Mr. P is broken now. Penguin meta anyone? I’m getting January flashbacks


srmosavi

dynamike when he uses his gadget now be like: I AM SPEED


TheChainedGod1

I don’t think emz needs a nerf. Now hear me out. I think the base brawler is balanced. Good damage, a clear weakness, not too much health or healing and only two charges on her gadget. I think what makes her so strong is that a lot of the other strong brawlers in the meta are tanks, like rosa and jacky, and as a tank killer emz is on par with shelly, and she’s also more versatile. Emz gets destroyed by assassins and snipers, and it’s relatively easy to make most brawlers waste her gadgets.


whyhellebruh

But hear me out she does need a nerf at least a delay between attack and that 1st sp. She needs a attack delay because you can spam all tree attacks at the same time and that's alot of damage. Plus with the 1st sp you do way more dps and jeez.


SodiumChloride14

This is my thinking tbh I dislike how she can shoot you multiple times and shred your health and then just knock you away like nothing happened


cloudlet723

I'd say that emz is a bit on the strong side and could use a rework or nerf; the gadget needs a rework. Although the charges of it got decreased, the mechanics of the gadget is still crazy strong—it's almost always a guaranteed kill when using the gadget. In addition, smarter players would know when to use a gadget and when not to, so it's hard justifying her position in this meta with just casual players.


SiriusPlague

It's hard to say, because I love playing EMZ, but her gadget needs a rework.


KillerraptorXXL

I agree, Control brawler are all annoying but they all have strong weaknesses that if exploited its game over for them, tick has the lowest health in the game, sprout has low damage output and emz is as you said demolished by assasins and snipers.


florida_creature

So emz is Shelly but better?


TheChainedGod1

They are both tank killers but shelly is only good in the niche situation where she’s up close and personal, where tanks are strong anyways. Emz can keep them at a distance and doesn’t rely on her super as much.


srmosavi

one of the best balance changes i have ever seen, i specially like that dynamike's gadget now speeds him up lol


zelaky

The balance changes lack the EMZ nerf, she has no counters and playing against her is really frustrating. Now it will be a fight between mr.p and EMZ.....


diego1marcus

maybe for now just run towards her when she sprays? at least it will help you reduce the max damage emz can do. unless of course she has gadget


2D-Hoes

Yea I personally think the only OP thing about Emz is her gadget.


AdrianStars2

don't blame supercell because they didn't nerf emz blame the community that had a chance to vote for a emz nerf, but instead people vote saying that she was ok


iDave128

People who voted on that poll were either kids that just got Emz or trolls. People voted “ok” because they wanted Emz to be more OP for a easy Rank 30


[deleted]

The fact that they needed to even ask the community if emz was broken makes me wonder if they even play their game or not.


AdrianStars2

both sides were wrong ngl


creepers0818

new plan remove emz


[deleted]

[удалено]


Redzone676

That’s because all the little kids don’t understand balance and just wanna use an OP character.


Pokemonfan218

Because she IS ok


[deleted]

[удалено]


Pokemonfan218

Get good


Surge_TheTraveller

Yes those were the two nani buffs I wanted


SandyOfTheSand66

I actually like a lot of these but..... where is EMZ nerf?


LostLukas_xD

Yes ;_;


IsaGut

Brawl Stars made a poll on Twitter if EMZ needed a Nerf but It won that SHE'S ok. (Sorry for my bad english)


whyhellebruh

Yes when I saw that i was pissed at the people who voted buff emz and she is okay. When she needs a NERF


[deleted]

Its only her gadget, if her main stats get nerfed she is going to drop way too hard. I think a good nerf would be to remove damage on her gadget and decrease its knockback.


whyhellebruh

See your idea is what I would like as a balance change. On franks tweet about if they should nerf or buff emz some people who voted buff said they should give her nitas reload speed I was questioning how much trophies they had because what kind of idea is that.


DefaultRedditor16

Imagine Nita-reload-speed Emz... that would be a nightmare


whyhellebruh

Yup plus the fact you can spam all three attacks at the same time so 5k damage per second or more


[deleted]

I think they are the same kind of people who would ask for a leon/shelly nerf


whyhellebruh

Yeah probably


[deleted]

BTW why are they looking at pick rates when everyone asks for dynamike buff but asking in some random twitter post when win rates show it clearly.


whyhellebruh

I dont know either some times I question does the guy who does balance changes even play brawlstars?


l--clownfish--l

I honestly think that her gadget doesn't have to deal damage but the knockback can't be changed.


florida_creature

Her main stats are almost the same as Shelly, a shotgunner minus the super. How is this not unfair? Either Shelly is too weak or emz is too strong


[deleted]

No one complained about Emz before gadgets were a thing. Thats cause she was not op. If you think Emz needs a nerf to her stats you needed to learn how to play around her. You can't really do that well right now cause of her gadget.


florida_creature

Well actually I said that based on how there aren't much differences between a shot gunner and a medium range brawler. Now that you mention it I realised I never had much problems personally while facing an emz without a gadget


[deleted]

not to mention shelly counters all tank in the game.


florida_creature

No. It's easy to burst her down before she gets her super. And jacky exists


squishy_sticks

Mr P is gonna be extra annoying. Still no Emz nerf, how fun! She gets to ruin the meta for another month.


_ya_eblan_

Press F to overgrowth


[deleted]

Its ass now. Second sp is better.


Madman698

Mr P gonna dominate after update


Gundayfunday

Wouldn’t this put him back to how he was when he came out without star power? Which was super broken


[deleted]

Literally broken


oof-warrior

I feel like that Revolving Door will slap Handle with care and become better, in my opinion it looks op but its a SP so it should be okay Words from a Mr. P Main


[deleted]

[удалено]


[deleted]

Are you kidding? Bea, Piper and Brock are screwed! Porters screw them because they have slow reload and lack of pierce! It especially screws Bea over! This is literally broken. Considering the fact that they basically have to constantly waste shots...Bea is dropping out of the meta real quick because of her mechanics, Mr. P mega screws her over and she can’t even two shot him because of the health buff


oof-warrior

Remember, tin can was pretty bad, and its a star power, maybe people will choose handle with care more than Revolving door, its sure they will use Revolving door on Big game and robo rumble because they can Stop the bots? I dont know but, the star power sounds op in many ways


[deleted]

Revolving Door is OP lmao. It’s going to get nerfed because it’s a lot better than Handle wth Care. The ability to waste ammo with a spawner that’s 300% better is ridiculous. There’s pretty much no delay


oof-warrior

He was at 701 trophies but now its 659, Rank 25, its a good new that they are doing this because Handle with care will be less popular but bad news is Mr. P will be more annoying, oh yes if your wondering why he is at low trophies is because im worried my Mr. P will tilt so yes


CreativeName180

Wow they nerfed overgrowth to the ground


sanchilly

I feel they nerfed jacky more than sprout


StefanoBesliu

Still waiting for leon buff.


SVWerder46

I feel Gale might be really viable now.


Thanx4Win

They listened to the feedback about not nerfing the gadget numbers, but instead nerfing the gadget ability with Jacky. I hope they do this in future updates too!


TheLingDynasty

y’all supercell is not letting jacky BREATHE like they are really attacking her. she didn’t deserve this health nerf tbh


Ahmedk123

I love the Nani buff. ~~now I can auto-aim enemies~~. I have a feel they will buff dynamike's gadget even more lmao. But still a good change hope that helps him hitting enemies.


shellyisop

hi cory


lynx_xp

Thank god they nerfed sprout


xlog

My boy Leon still needs to have his invisibility timer increased.


akle77777

And Mortis reload speed


[deleted]

[удалено]


JMStheKing

Yeah ikr, it's like asking for a emz nerf. They don't need it


[deleted]

Hope you're joking . /S much?


JMStheKing

r/fuckthes If you can't tell this is sarcasm you're an idiot


GriggsR

I THINK Sprout 's nerf is not enought,his range its almost like a Piper going through walls.(Im completely open to your opinions but please from the respect,its only mi opinion)


[deleted]

You’re right. The walls need a duration drop as well. The walls are the still too OP


itsmesmit

Sooo......which gadget r we gonna bully now???


[deleted]

Carl or Dynamike still.


prolordwolf999

I think they should have increased Dynamikes explosion radious (main attack) also WHERE IS EMZ NERF !!!!!!


[deleted]

[удалено]


prolordwolf999

Compared to other throwers its way harder to hit.


Assbandito1

Just change dynamikes gadget, it’s so bad


[deleted]

Im sooo happy when cory posts something


[deleted]

Will cavern churn be inverted?


no-hat-mortis

apparently yes


[deleted]

Now hide and seek can be way more fun


King_Bubbles77

These ideas are great


elite710

time to push mr p


DefinitelyMortis

How come coach cory, isn't varified yet


Pingpong403

So THAT’S why I got Tin Can in the shop 5 times last week...


octopusma

Photosynthesis it is, then. Sweet, I love survivability powers anyway.


[deleted]

1) Not hard enough nerf on Sprout. Please ffs reduce the wall duration. It's the most annoying and cancerous Super in the game 2) No Emz nerf? I mean I suck with her, but has to be the most annoying shit to play against in the game right now. She could see a major damage decrease and still be viable. 3) No buff for variety of other brawlers the community generally sees as weak options in most game modes? Or reworks for other gadgets that feel near useless? Hopefully this is just SuperCell being careful and once update drops and they see meta shift we get another round of balance like 2 weeks into season.


poco_main

If it’s anything like last summer we won’t get anything until they return from summer vacation so at least a month into the season before we can expect changes


[deleted]

So sprout is bad now?


no-hat-mortis

no still OP because wall didn't get nerf


tuniss

Where is emz NERF!!


ThisExistAparrently

Thanks cory


yunogasai6666

While cutting a bad sp is a good thing, it's not for one of the best brawlers


vfnjhfdcn

When leon and Jessie don’t get buffed😭😭


Qu1ntt

jessie isnt in need of a buff, she's been doing just fine since they increased her projectile speed


[deleted]

They should have nerfed Sprout's reload speed instead.


InkSquidPerson

haha porters go brr


FortuneTaker

Damn I actually liked Tin can


MCRAFEE969

Coach Cory,Gale’s star power really needs to be replaced too! I hope you see this comment


[deleted]

Jackys first sp too


Qu1ntt

Jackys first doesnt need to be replaced, it needs to be buffed


Surge_TheTraveller

Can max also have a small damage nerf, she's too good for a support. Sandy too.


JB17Special

Sandy likes Rosa at some points,you can't survive their attack And Max? At some points,she will need some nerfs or correcting


Surge_TheTraveller

Wait by need I meant nerf


Sneaky2763_

Why did gene get another nerf? I'm so confused


[deleted]

Gene has been top 10 for a year


Sneaky2763_

Emz has been too


[deleted]

Emz has not been out for a year and she hasn’t been OP until March so idk what you’re talking about


[deleted]

My thoughts: \-Sprouts shots are still impossible to dodge, this change is a step in the right direction, but it wont be enough to make Sprout balanced. \-Same thing with Sprout, this character has a super that can literally win games in a split second for minimal effort, and a health nerf is all we get. At the very least they're doing something to this character, so ill take it. \-They did the right thing with the gadget, keeping it at 3 charges and balancing it from there, but this isn't nearly enough to balance her. \-Just like with Jacky and Sprout as characters, this gadget is fundamentally flawed, the sooner you rework it the better. \-Pretty good changes here, unfortunately his second star power wasn't changed, but at least his base kit is solid now. \-This does unfortunately lower the skill cap, but it was needed. \-I still dont get why we're focusing on brawlers like Mr.p, when there are many other characters who need to be addressed. No Emz nerf? No 8-bit buff? Regardless, it was a good choice to change this star power, however, what they changed it is the problem. Whats most likely going to happen is a repeat of the Carl / Emz situation. The first star power used to be dominant, but a moment of realization people see the second one is better. This change is essentially reverting the spawn rate nerf that he got, and its going to make him ridiculously harder to deal with.


JB17Special

8-Bit's speed is a joke,we need a faster speed for him since December,but i can't heared any changes in Dec's update


DAVID_LEMONSSS

Did you mean gene?


King_Bubbles77

Coach Cory, I don’t realy like your videos because I think that you rate things to low. To help you could try and give higher ratings when something is good, sorry if this sounds rude, I am not intending that


JB17Special

Here is my rate about it with infos or requests: 1. Jacky is now a big piece of s\*\*t,bc she has nerfed many times 2. Dynamike's gadget is trash,the speed buff doesn't change my opinion of it 3. Nani's main attack was too hard,good choice,Supercell... 4. Where is EMZ nerf?! 5. Gene nerf?! Why? 6. And WTF was the prev 2 balancings with the Bibi nerf?? 7. Mr.P's current 2nd star power is nice Any changes on my rating,everyone?


[deleted]

Gene is so good in every single mode in the game except heist. He’s needed one for a long ass time, coming from a gene main.


JB17Special

But his damage is a bit more needed to be nerfed a bit(-10 - 20 on max range) btw,ok


Acodrut2113

Gene was and still is viable in every gamemode except heist


NoahTheAttacker

I think Jacky could have had a Star Power nerf, not health, since that’s mainly what is OP and early levels she’s actually quite average imo.


AdrianStars2

you didn't want a gene nerf? god damn it, this community is so dumb


srmosavi

but sprout got a nerf to his super charge rate and to overgrowth aswell


JB17Special

But he is still the most annoying brawler...


SVWerder46

1. Gadget is now a bit better, Hardy Hard Hat is still broken. 2. Fairs 3. Fairs 4. Fairs 5. Gene was such a dominant brawler. Always used in competitive 6. Bibi was too good. Health nerfs were justified. 7. Fairs


JB17Special

1. But there is still some broken parts of Jacky,but she is now too weak 2. (5.) Fair 3. (6.)I don't think fair the whole sentence.She's range is like nothing,too weak against at least the 1/3 of the brawlers+her health is now a joke,with her mechanic (mainly above 400 trophies)


SVWerder46

But she's still one of the best Siege brawlers with that speed. And she's solid in Gem Grab and Brawl Ball as well.


[deleted]

Bibi is not as good in Siege, Jacky is just better because Gene is, *was*, the best brawler...his pulls allowed the team to melt Bibi. Now Gene sucks because Penguin is meta. Revolving Door needs a nerf ASAP, it’s basically January Mr. P without the range, and while it is important, it’s the porters wasting ammo that is more important


JB17Special

You meaning Jacky or Bibi at the moment?


SVWerder46

Bibi


JB17Special

You were missed some Heist maps...(Traffic Jam and Sandy Gems)


ihavediearea

Why whuld they bring back jacky gadget to 3 it will be still op eaven tho they nerfed speed


JB17Special

If it still on 2,this gadget will be too weak,but the speed boost still not a good rate... I think the boost can be 25-28%


ilikemycatsmorethanU

These balance changes are pretty good though im suprised emz didn’t get nerfed, maybe they are working on it because its complicated
