In preparation of Season 21's imminent arrival in Brawl Stars, Supercell has released balance changes that will buff and nerf certain brawlers and items.
Season 21 of Brawl Stars is nearly here and it brings with it exciting new additions such as the Chromatic brawler Charlie, several exciting skins, and the long-awaited Clubs rework.
But before the game sees the launch of the new season, the Brawl Stars team has deployed another round of balance changes to prepare both the playerbase and the meta for its packed feature list.
The previous set of balance changes that was released in September, prioritized only base stats such as movement speed, damage, and HP. However, the new round of changes in October seek to crack down on the performance of Gears and certain brawlers.
Overview Of October Balance Changes In Brawl Stars
October's balance changes heavily focuses on nerfs, with buffs only being a minor concession to a few underperforming Gears and brawlers. That said, Doug and four Gears saw their stats improved upon.
On the other hand, Crow, Chuck, Shelly, Gus, Pearl, Squeak, Fang, and Buster were nerfed. Fans of the Speed Gear will be disappointed to find that its movement speed boost has been reduced.
