Ranked is a solo game mode, which is why it will never actually be truly competitive. It come down to these main points: (TLDR at the end)

1. Your playstyle

Ranked favours aggro players, which is why if you normally play control brawlers for your team, you will naturally struggle to carry in ranked

2. Drafting

Drafting is also part of your skill as a player, but in ranked, you can only make one pick, whereas if you were a drafter for your team, you would be able to make all three. This nerfs drafters and coaches in ranked by a lot.

3. Teamplay/ comms

It is impossible to communicate with your ranked teammates except in the most simple forms ( sprays, pins) which means that it does not test your teamplay and synergy as a player. This usually mean that playing carry brawlers like Mina Mortis and Kenji is more optimal than playing brawlers that require team play (Kit, Gene, Doug etc.)

4. Wintrading and hacking

Every three games you will meet one wintrader or hacker, which isn’t very competitive in the slightest 🥀

TLDR: ranked heavily favours aggressive play styles and doesn’t test your team play. It is also a cesspool of wintraders , hackers, and people with 0 mental stamina . If you seek a truly competitive environment, find a team and play some matcherinos, or sign up for the monthly qualifiers next year

Apparently They Shadow nerfed Juju, so as you know gris gris projectile width IS 1.67 tile wide But using the slow sp decreases the width from 1.67 to 0.67 tile wide, so there is a tech where you use the shield sp on Gris gris in order to bring back the 1.67 tile wide shots, which makes them easier to land. But I realised something was wrong when I played Juju recently, it was an open map so using slow sp was risky since you rarely face aggros there, so I used shield sp, But Gris gris shots STILL felt THINNER

I got into the game files, and realised something odd, BASE Gris gris attack width was DECREASED from 1.67->0.67 which means the shield sp is less useful now since Gris gris attacks will still be thin Regardless of which star power, making the slow sp even more essential, and to add insult to injury, you CAN increase Gris gris attack width by using Juju’s hyper from 0.67 to 2 TILES, but YOU NEED the slow Sp in ORDER to work And it does NOT work with the other star power unfortunately

I had a 72% win rate pushing from 4700 to 6000 (I did the whole push in one day)

Congratulations, u/SwordyNate, u/StomachOk4891 and u/FireGames06YT for becoming part of our mod team.

Big shutouts to everyone that took the time to apply for the role.

We hope that this decision will change the subreddit for the better. Have a wonderful day.

I’ve been hard stuck M1 peak for 8 seasons now. The last 3 seasons I’ve been really close to M2 but I can’t seem to make it through. I play a decent amount, around 1-2 hours a day until the last week and then 2-3 hours a day the last week with up to 6 hours the last 2 days. My main issue is that I play really bad when I don’t think we can win, whether it’s because of team diff or bad draft. I also don’t remember the last game I carried in masters where the enemy team wasn’t full M1 peak or worse. I keep seeing people hit M2 with way fewer stars on the battlecard and I can’t help but wonder what I’m doing wrong. How do I hit M2?

What are her best modes? Does/Can she also work in some other ones?. And how do you play her in each one of those? On which kind of maps is she viable? What are her matchups, etc.

Yeah, this is a small post. But any help is appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Additionally, Brawl Ball is the featured gamemode with Spiraling Out and Beach Ball being the featured maps. Also, I'm surprised we getting an Ultra Legendary Brawler instead of a Legendary one.

Any thoughts?

Returning to Jae-Yong and he feels so difficult to push now, I feel as though I’m contributing very little to the team most matches

Damage gadget used to make Jae-Yong broken back on release but now it’s not even that strong and Jae-Yong struggles in any scenario where his back’s against the wall

Any certified Jae-Yong players willing to give me some advice or even just a pointer to a Youtube guide from Bedlam or something? Would be appreciated, only one guide to Jae-Yong on this sub and that was back when he was S tier so a lot of it’s probably outdated

Bans:Nori, Max, Edgar I don't remember the rest(I think one was Bolt,not sure tho)

Draft order:

1st-Meeple

2nd-Rico

3rd-Dyna

4th-Mortis

5th-Nani

6th-Doug(me)

My idea was to stick to my teammates so Mortis can't rush in and heal my teammates(mostly Dyna) so they can push up to take care of Nani and Meeple

As someone without many meta brawlers and buddies i often have to pick non-meta brawlers, El Primo can be pretty good in brawl ball and some gem grab maps and drafts.

I think people also underestimate the meteor gadget, maybe it’s not like that higher up but in mythic I noticed it throws a bit of chaos on the opponents placements, it’s all about not using it in certain moments.

So tired of teaming up with noobs on ranked match against strong players only , we lose all the time even though im the star player all the games , any tips how to match with normal players? 😞

It says month 0 and there is no new timer. Ranked leaderboards are also messed up
