The addition of Bounty mechanics has added extra fun to the game overall. The more you kill, the higher your bounty gets.
It is important to create a balance between offense and defense. In the case of High-bounty players should focus on dodging and team support whereas lower-bounty players have to play offensive roles to secure their teammates.
Siege Tactics
Giving a strategic move to the Brawlers Star, in this game mode players have to collect bolts that are scattered across the battlefield to create a powerful robot. This will help a player destroy the turret of the enemy. The team gets a stronger robot if it gathers more bolts.
Coordination is crucial in Seige Tactics. It is also important to collect more bolts and protect your turret from other robots. Additionally, communication with your teammates is key and a defense performed on perfect time can easily turn the tide of battle.
Showdown Royale
Showdown is a solo mode that pits 10 players against each other on a shrinking battlefield. This game mode has featured new power-ups and environmental hazards which make it more uncertain and intense.
Awareness of the environment is important, knowing the right time to engage and avoid conflict in the field can decide your victory and loss. A player must keep an eye on the shrinking field and ensure strategic use of power-ups.
Balance Changes
The game developers bring various balance updates to create a fair and competitive gaming environment. Here are some of the notable changes that have been made:
Character Adjustments
EI Toro
Overpowering was a major drawback in the previous seasons. Therefore the charging ability of EI Toro has been gradually nerged to decrease its range in the latest update. This type of change was introduced to build a balance in the aggressive playstyle which was lacking in the previous patch.
Shadow
The speed of Shadow’s attack seems to have increased in this season, it allows more fluid combos. As Shadow was underperforming previously, this update makes Shadow more viable in higher-level play.
Vixen
The health of Vixan is reduced in the 2024 update. However, players can experience a maximum damage output of this character.
Map adjustment
Certain maps were revamped to provide more enhanced and balanced gameplay.
Choke Point Widening
Maps like Crystal Cavern had narrow choke points leading to one-sided matches. It was easy for only one team to lead by taking over entry and exit points. The 2024 update has made choke points wider to make it more challenging and dynamic and promote fluid battles.
Visual Enhancements
The visual enhancements to various maps have improved lighting, added more detailed textures, and elements like immersive weather effects. Although this update doesn’t affect Gameplay directly it does provide players a more enhanced, engaging, and aesthetically appealing experience.
Environmental hazards
The updated version of Brawlers Star has featured environmental hazards which are specifically designed to challenge players by forcing them to adapt to changing conditions on the field.
