Tl;dr - Grom is a balancing nightmare for the whole game. Hes so strong in the mythic legendary level yet remains unviable in competitive. Theres no way to buff Grom to really change that except movement speed.

Grom has a fundamental problem that cannot be solved with stats. I can understand why Adrian would nerf Grom, Grom is already useless in competitive so its not like nerfing him would make him any worse but it could make him less oppressive for the majority of the playerbase. I'm however not a fan if the way Grom was nerfed, he is more dependent on a star power that in hindsight makes him more of a noob stomper and it makes his already questionably designed star power foot patrol weaker.

Speed is a very powerful mechanic for the whole game. If your damage is high, it doesn't matter if your shots are easy to dodge for the pro players but for those who can't it the brawler becomes useful for those players. Speed is more consistent, if a brawler is fast it makes it harder to catch them for pros just as much as casuals and mid rank players. Grom wouldn't fold as badly against aggression and possibly do something in competitive with fast movement speed. Theres just no other way to buff Grom that would make him significantly viable in comp without being anymore oppressive for the rest of the game.

Consider this a different form of the super shredder when the mutagen was mixed with cybernatic DNA that makes up cybertronian aliens.

hiiii guysss, your legend is back

for your submission to count, give the brawler and coordinate, top comments WIN

i will do 3-4 drawings per part, since i want to avoid another burnout

but remember, I AM NOT A MASTER ARTIST, I'M DOING THIS FOR FUN AND TO IMPROVE

any art tips will be appreciated

duplicates will be allowed if they're funny enough

Unusually long wait for hypercharge

Pam had to wait the longest time out of any brawler to receive a hypercharge. The supposed reason is Pam is gonna get reworked. When it was time to give Pam her hypercharge, her rework was canceled. I'm not sure what her rework could've possibly been but she basically didn't need it. When Pam got her hypercharge she became A tier in the overall meta. She was specifically a beast in hot zone and gem grab but a bit weaker in other gamemodes.

Minor nerf and initial buffies

Pam got a minor HCR nerf to tone her down and I think thats fair. The hypercharge itself is quite strong, providing extra healing and the overshield mechanic thats more fitting for her kit. In the first buffie wave Pam took a hit as well as the rest of the tank roster. Pam went from A to B tier, no longer a priority pick in hot zone and gem grab but still a reasonable counter pick. She at least has a favorable matchup into Mortis and Shelly but the other buffie brawlers (notably +1 ammo acid spray Emz) were quite annoying for Pam.

Sirius

Then Sirius came. Sirius is one of the hardest counters to Pam. Pam as a non piercing, non aggro, healer tank feeds Sirius while having no way to overcome his shadows. Now post nerf you can still have a teammate address the Sirius but its still an unfavorable matchup.

Second buffie wave hit

The second buffie wave wasn't too bad for Pam compared to the others. Crow as an anti healer is annoying for Pam but its not the end of the world either since Crow doesn't have the dps to threaten Pam upfront. Bo can also be really annoying but its Bo hes one of the easiest brawlers to counter in comp.

8-bit, Brock and Colette hard countered Pam out of the meta

The third and now fourth buffie wave completely ruin Pam. Colette previously struggled to deal with healers but now with her buffies especially the new hypnosis gadget she can easily counter Pam. 8-bit and Brock already counter Pam but you don't often see Brock and Pam in the same place and 8-bit had fallen off himself. Now that both of these brawlers have buffies there isn't much wiggle room for Pam in the meta. To add salt to the wound, a lot of the artillery brawlers were buffed but tbf a lot of them needed it, still another reason Pam will fall down in the meta.

Tl;dr

Pam was solid in the hot zone and gem grab meta specifically when she got her hypercharge. But she fell off quite fast after the release of Sirius and a lot of her counters getting buffies such as Emz, Colette, 8-bit and Brock.

GTA 6 is getting ever so closer to its release, supposedly in November. You can pre order the game right now (But why would you?) so I doubt there will be anymore delays.

Meanwhile brawl stars has seemingly given up on map maker. They've reworked Rank and Ladder a couple of times at this point but since no one cares for Map Maker in the first place brawl stars continues to ignore it. Reworking Map Maker just isn't very appealing to brawl stars.

Paul from Invincible. He may not play a significant role but he does his part as a normal person in a not so normal family.

Master Splinter/Yoshi Hamato from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, specifically the 2012 show. Technically he is a biological father but he is also the father of the turtles.

Iruka sensai from Naruto. Similar to Paul, Iruka didn't have much screen time. But Iruka is a good role model and father figure for Naruto who didn't really have anyone to look up to at the time.

Edit: I forgot to mention Optimus Prime from transformers prime series. During his time on Earth, OP acted as a father figure among his human companions, Jack, Miko, Raph as well as some of the Autobots.

Happy father's day everyone!

Bans that I recall were Najia, Edgar and Colette

​

I did ok into Tick and Gene but I did feed them a bit. Then there's Doug I couldn't really approach. I made a couple of plays with the creature of the night gadget so we won a couple of rounds in knockout but we just repeatedly went 1-2 in the end.

​

What brawler could I have gone instead? I used to go Brock into FP throwers but I felt like I needed a hard carry.

The post under the flair concept is an example. Recently theres been quite a few posts that don't really add a lot of discussion and some posts have rather questionable takes that can come off as bait. With the hot take flair long gone, maybe its about time we replaced it.

I'm literally shaking! Does this mean the best skin in the history of gaming is gonna get reworked? Does Brawl Stars have a chance at winning this lawsuit?

I'm not the biggest fan of "Snipers = skill" skill is so much more than just aiming. The map at the time it was made would be very limited with predictable drafts since we didn't have as many snipers.

Now the overall brawler pool is larger with more snipers and other sniper 'substitutes' such as Jae Yong, Najia and Pierce. Theres also Bolt, Kaze, and a few more tanks/assassins that can work on such an open map.

We got Snake Prairie in rank for a considerable amount of time which had the opposite meta of No Excuses. Is it time we gave No Excuses a chance or is the meta difference still too extreme?

I thought I could carry with her here. Tara should theoretically have free supers against Doug and spam pets against Clancy. Griff could be a bit problematic but the whole comp generally lacked mobility and feeds super. Was this not a Tara game? Final image is my alts roster for any other suggestions.

We all can collectively agree which wheel is broken right?

Mark is dressed up like his dad, could this be a coping mechanism?

They went ÷ Pierce even though I could go ? Nani and @ it. X went Mortis to $ the *. They went + Starr Nova and / Mina and Im not sure if that was a good response pick since they went double agenda. Our teammate went ! Spike, I tried to suggest something else as Spike feels like a huge npc pick in rank.

Spikes damage just feels too low against agenda but it kinda works since it was a long range map. But I feel like the double agenda could overwhelm us if they knew what they were doing. Thots?

Congratulations to u/Starioo your submission got the most votes by a landslide. Its simple and clean, representing everything Edgar is trying to be.
