Hypercharge changes
Hypercharge mechanics undergo a major overhaul this season, with changes designed to prevent the extension of Hypercharge duration through Super charge gains during its activation.
This rebalance ensures that Hypercharges amplify a Brawler’s strengths without overshadowing their weaknesses, leading to more strategic play and counterplay opportunities.
- Hypercharge duration no longer gets extended by gaining Super charge during Hypercharge
- Various hypercharges across the game rebalanced, affecting charge rates, damage, speed, and shield values.
- Significant adjustments made to strengthen a Brawler’s existing strengths during hypercharge without covering up for their weaknesses.
Season 24’s balance changes promise to redefine the Brawl Stars experience, offering fresh gameplay dynamics and strategic depth. As you adapt to these updates, keep experimenting, stay flexible, and above all, enjoy the ever-changing world of Brawl Stars.
