About this listen
Many of the game’s strongest Brawlers have been reined in with nerfs to their key abilities. Kenji now charges his Hypercharge more slowly—down from 35% to 25%—and his ability no longer knocks up enemies, with the pull effect also weakened. Janet’s level-up damage bonus has been halved from 9% to 4%. Ash and Jacky, both previously top picks, have had their health and damage boosts trimmed. Jae-yong saw reductions to both his health points and reload speed. Even Clancy lost his passive synergy with robots, impacting strategies that relied heavily on that mechanic. Lumi’s Half-time Star Power slow duration decreased from two seconds to just one, further reducing her control potential on the battlefield[1][3][5].
On the flip side, underused Brawlers received buffs intended to reinvigorate their presence in the meta. While specifics on all buffs weren’t detailed in the immediate sources, Supercell’s aim with this update was to create a more competitive and strategic environment, prompting greater diversity in character selection[5].
Beyond character tweaks, major systemic changes were made to game mechanics. Developers revamped the XP distribution, adjusted how towers behave, and recalibrated base damage across several modes. These changes are designed to make matches in Brawl Arena more balanced and to reward smarter, more strategic plays. In addition, improvements were implemented for bot characters, including robots and towers, to ensure fairer and more engaging encounters in both casual and ranked matches[3][5].
A notable development outside of direct gameplay changes is the expansion of Brawl Stars’ collaboration with Matcherino, announced on June 16. This partnership brings more incentives and additional ways to compete, with new in-game pins now up for grabs for participants in select events. Such moves indicate Supercell’s ongoing commitment to fostering a robust competitive scene and community around Brawl Stars[2].
These adjustments, collectively, mean that listeners can expect a much-shaken meta, particularly for ranked gameplay in June 2025. Supercell continues to respond actively to player feedback, using these balance updates and event collaborations to maintain excitement and fairness in Brawl Stars as it evolves. The game remains free to play, with fresh content and changes likely to arrive throughout the year as both casual and competitive players explore new strategies and team compositions[1][2][3][5].
