Marzio, check this out. PLEASE DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME Wow, I never knew I could do it. Whoa.<br \/>\nMe neither. BUFFIES WON&#8217;T MAKE YOU BACKFLIP<br \/>\nALTHOUGH THEY DO LOOK REALLY COOL Ah! I hate backflips. Buffies won&#8217;t make you backflip,<br \/>\nbut they will&#8230; film them. But they will buff your Gadgets,<br \/>\nStar Powers, and Hypercharges. Finally, I can Hypercharge<br \/>\nin public without repercussions. Each Brawler can equip<br \/>\nthree Buffies with each one providing unique benefits to the Brawler. There are three types of Buffies: Gadget Buffies, Star Buffies,<br \/>\nand Hyper Buffies. BRAWL TALK Before we go into the Buffies&#8217;<br \/>\ndesign and mechanics, we need to talk about Brawler reworks. Every Brawler that is getting a Buffie is also getting some<br \/>\nof their abilities reworked. Since we are improving<br \/>\nmultiple abilities at the same time, it&#8217;s also a good opportunity to revise Brawlers&#8217; kits<br \/>\nif they are not working well. So, what can you expect<br \/>\nfrom Buffies besides backflips? We are launching Buffies<br \/>\nfor six Brawlers, so let&#8217;s go through them all<br \/>\nand their new kit. First off is our girl Shelly, whose Buffies also come alongside<br \/>\na rework to a few of her skills. Both of her Gadgets are now aimable<br \/>\nand can be used with auto-aim. First Gadget: When Buffied, it will also slow the target<br \/>\nand slow for longer with each hit. Second Gadget: When Buffied,<br \/>\nShelly will become invulnerable during her Dash. First Star Power: Her Super will now burn enemies<br \/>\nto make it easy to finish them off. Second Star Power: Alongside healing, also gain<br \/>\n20% movement speed for three seconds. Hypercharge: Shelly&#8217;s main attack projectile speed<br \/>\nis now massively increased. Colt is also getting some aimable Gadgets<br \/>\nand reworks alongside his Buffies. First Gadget: His bullet is bigger<br \/>\nand now deals more damage. Second Gadget rework: This Gadget used to reload two ammo but now shoots two quick shots<br \/>\nthat slow targets when hit. When Buffied, these shots also<br \/>\nsteal one ammo from the target. First Star Power: Colt also gains a burst of movement<br \/>\nspeed every time he deals damage. Second Star Power: Deals increased damage<br \/>\nto enemies who are far away. Hypercharge: Colt shoots his bullets faster, the same amount, just faster<br \/>\nto take down enemies even quicker. The spikey boy himself,<br \/>\nSpike is getting, you guessed it, some reworks alongside his Buffies. First Gadget rework: His first Gadget used to fire<br \/>\nthree waves of needles that can now be aimed,<br \/>\nand now fires two. When Buffied, it will root a target<br \/>\nif they are hit by three needles. Second Gadget rework: You can now throw<br \/>\nyour potted healing cactus. It takes longer to deploy<br \/>\nthe farther away you throw it, but it makes Spike have more utility<br \/>\nin team fights. When Buffied, this potted plant<br \/>\nwill deal damage when it&#8217;s destroyed and push enemies back. First Star Power rework: Instead of healing<br \/>\nwhile standing inside your Super, Spike will now be healed for a certain<br \/>\npercent of damage dealt by the Super. Second Star Power. No rework, but when Buffied,<br \/>\nthe spikes will curve even more. Hypercharge: A Hyper-Buffied Spike<br \/>\nwill get two explosions from his main attacks instead of one. -Emz is like so getting some reworks.<br \/>\n-Oh, totally. First Gadget rework: You can now aim a spray<br \/>\nthat goes through walls. When Buffied, this will also slow enemies. Second Gadget rework: Now, aim a spray<br \/>\nthat will push enemies back. When Buffied,<br \/>\nknock Brawlers back farther and also Stun them if they hit a wall. First Star Power: When Buffied, reduce damage<br \/>\ndealt by enemies you have sprayed. Second Star Power: Now also become invincible for one<br \/>\nsecond when activating your Super. Hypercharge: A Hyper-Buffied Emz<br \/>\nwill also poison enemies with her spray, dealing damage over time. Frank! Buffies!<br \/>\nReworks! Go! First Gadget rework: Instead of becoming immune<br \/>\nto crowd control, Frank now fires<br \/>\nan aimable Gadget soundwave and becomes immune to crowd control. Buffied, this soundwave<br \/>\nalso destroys projectiles. Second Gadget rework: This Gadget used to deal extra damage<br \/>\nand pull enemies closer. Now you can aim your Gadget for a more<br \/>\naccurate and farther reaching pull. First Star Power: When Buffied, this Star Power heals Frank<br \/>\nupon defeating a Brawler. Second Star Power: When Buffied, Frank now takes 15% less<br \/>\ndamage while above 50% health. Hypercharge: Frank&#8217;s Hyper Buffie allows him to attack at his highest attack speed<br \/>\nwith all main attacks. -Mortis.<br \/>\n-First Gadget rework: Now aimable, Mortis can either<br \/>\nattack around himself by tapping or throw his shovel in any direction. Second Gadget rework: His Gadget used to increase reload speed, but now will be aimable and allow Mortis<br \/>\nto become a Creature of the Night and travel to a target location. When Buffied, Mortis will damage targets and heal himself when in bats form. First Star Power: Star Buffied Creepy Harvest will give Mortis<br \/>\npermanent max health until defeated. This stacks too. Second Star Power: Buffied Coiled Snake gives Mortis damage<br \/>\nreduction during his longer dashes. Hypercharge: After using his main attack, Mortis will deal the same damage<br \/>\nto the same area, after a short delay. Our plan is to have Buffies<br \/>\nfor every single Brawler in the game. Buffies will follow your Brawler<br \/>\ninto games and you&#8217;ll be able to see yours and enemy Buffies while brawling. Buffies are available<br \/>\nthrough the Claw Machine when you reach<br \/>\n1000 Trophies! Each pull will get you a new Buffie, and you can only unlock Buffies<br \/>\nthat you don&#8217;t already have. When the machine unlocks,<br \/>\nyou will get your first Buffie for free. Each Buffie will cost<br \/>\n2000 Power Points and 1000 Coins. And if you have all Buffies unlocked, you can use your Bling in the Claw Machine<br \/>\nto grab special Buffie Skins. They don&#8217;t affect gameplay. They are only beautiful. There are a couple of changes<br \/>\ncoming with Buffies: No more Mythic or Epic gear<br \/>\nfor the Brawlers receiving Buffies. We are also removing and refunding these and rebalancing Brawlers accordingly. Also, the circle indicator<br \/>\nbelow your Brawler is different now. Get your Buffies as soon<br \/>\nas we release our December update. BRAWL TALK<br \/>\nSKINS One of our most popular themes<br \/>\nwe see asked for is steampunk. So to coincide with the new<br \/>\nBrawl Pass Vault, we went for crime-themed steampunk Stu fits right in as a steampunk<br \/>\nMafia boss with the new Brawl Pass Skin. Steampunk Stu is the default version<br \/>\nof the skin. Crime Lord Stu and Iced Out Stu<br \/>\nare the Chroma variations. And now we are releasing<br \/>\ntwo Brawl Pass Skins per season, and Steampunk Gale is the second one. Fancy Man Gale and Dapper Gale are<br \/>\nthe Chroma variations of this Skin. If you don&#8217;t fancy Stu and want a swanky-looking Gale instead,<br \/>\nuse your new Vault Keys to unlock the Skins that you want<br \/>\nor get the Brawl Pass Plus to get both. We&#8217;ve also got a bloody Peaky Sam, who is unnecessarily well dressed<br \/>\nfor the job, but he&#8217;s looking good AF. Boss Brock is the one calling the shots, but also doesn&#8217;t shy away<br \/>\nfrom getting his hands dirty. Clockwork Kaze is the first<br \/>\nLegendary Skin for Kaze, and she looks like the ultimate boss<br \/>\nof a sci-fi movie. And since Kaze has two forms,<br \/>\nyou get two Skins in one. Speaking of robbery and crime, we will steal people&#8217;s hearts<br \/>\nwith the Brawlentine&#8217;s season. Rico is heartbroken<br \/>\nthis Brawlentine&#8217;s season. What&#8217;s Piper been doing? And Break Up Rico is one of the Chromas. Revenge Rico is the other Chroma<br \/>\nfor when he decides to move on. But if you are not a Rico main,<br \/>\ncheck out Brawlentine&#8217;s Angelo. Is Angelo the Cupid<br \/>\nthey were always meant to be. Probably not, but you<br \/>\nwill fall in love just the same. Adonis Angelo and Snatched Angelo are<br \/>\nthe Chroma variations of the Skin. Brawlentine&#8217;s Bear Shade just wants<br \/>\nto cuddle with everyone And Love Potion Squeak might work for you,<br \/>\nbut I wouldn&#8217;t recommend drinking it. Baddie Alli, who might be a bit<br \/>\noverdressed for her first date. And we have a bunch<br \/>\nof seasonal things coming, so here it goes: Snow Globe Nani for the Brawlidays. Lunar Lotus Willow for the Lunar New Year, and Esports Max, which is the<br \/>\nWorld Finals-inspired Skin of the year. BRAWL TALK<br \/>\nPIERCE Dani&#8217;s peeing in the pool again. Pierce, take him out. Pierce is a Legendary Sniper and finally,<br \/>\nthe last member of the Velocirapids trio. When Buzz decides there&#8217;s been<br \/>\ntoo much pee in the pool, he calls in Pierce to clean up. Pierce has a new unique trait. He will leave a bullet shell<br \/>\nevery time he hits his main attack, and will only reload by picking up<br \/>\na shell, or by spending all of his ammo. When picking up a shell, Pierce will also automatically<br \/>\nfire an instant free shot towards the nearest enemy,<br \/>\nwhich pierces through environments. Get it?<br \/>\nLike his name. The last shot in his gun<br \/>\ndeals extra damage, so sometimes it&#8217;s handy to run around<br \/>\nwith only one bullet on purpose. His Super will target<br \/>\nan area and mark enemies, then fire homing bullets at them. Each hit will drop a shell, which Pierce can then pick up<br \/>\nto fire even more shots. Sorry, Colt.<br \/>\nLooks like Pierce is the new Bullet Storm. Pierce&#8217;s Gadgets and Star Powers<br \/>\ncan make him a better support, slowing enemies or absorbing damage. Pierce is the first Legendary Brawler<br \/>\nsince we released the new Brawler release event,<br \/>\nso expect some changes. BRAWL TALK<br \/>\nGLOWBERT Who turned off the lights? Hold my hand. -Marzio, that&#8217;s not your hand.<br \/>\n-I know. -Hey, guys.<br \/>\n-Ahhhhh! It&#8217;s horrible. Glowbert is our January Brawler,<br \/>\nheading out of the darkness. Although Brawlers wish<br \/>\nhe didn&#8217;t have so much light. A marine biologist working<br \/>\nat Starr Park&#8217;s aquarium, Glowbert is obsessed with sea life and wants to introduce it<br \/>\nto as many people as possible. Although he might seem a bit creepy,<br \/>\nhe&#8217;s actually a nice guy. We think&#8230; He&#8217;s a brand-new healer who uses his Glowbeam<br \/>\nto continuously heal teammates, but can also wield it as a weapon<br \/>\nto continuously damage enemies. Glowbert will continue to heal or deal damage as long<br \/>\nas his basic attack is linked. For his Super, Glowbert reveals his face,<br \/>\nscaring away enemies and dealing damage. Hi. Glowbert&#8217;s Gadgets<br \/>\nand Star Powers allow him to become an even more effective healer, providing support<br \/>\nto teammates in sticky situations. Glowbert will be released<br \/>\nfrom the depths in January. BRAWL STARS<br \/>\nBRAWL PASS VAULT More new stuff?!<br \/>\nNew Brawl Pass update. Okay, so the Brawl Pass is getting<br \/>\na price increase. Greedycell!<br \/>\nGreedycell! But it&#8217;s getting a major buff<br \/>\nand increasing in value. Where&#8217;s that new Brawl Pass Vault? Yeah, man. How long does it take<br \/>\nto crack that brand-new Brawl Pass Vault? Chill man, I almost got it. There&#8217;s a lot of stuff<br \/>\nin this new Brawl Pass Vault. I have a hairdresser&#8217;s appointment<br \/>\nin one hour. Alright!<br \/>\nThere. 67?<br \/>\nI&#8217;m too old to understand this meme. The Brawl Pass is getting<br \/>\nsome big changes. Let&#8217;s go through the biggest. -The Vault:<br \/>\n-Brawl Passes will now contain Vault Keys. Each month there will be<br \/>\nfour keys available to collect, each unlocking a different<br \/>\npart of the vault. Resource Keys:<br \/>\nThese let you unlock extra Coins, Power Points, or Bling. Brawler Keys:<br \/>\nThey let you unlock Brawlers. Different rarities will require<br \/>\ndifferent Vault Key amounts. Skin Keys:<br \/>\nThese let you unlock the newest Brawl Pass Skins<br \/>\nor Skins from previous Brawl Passes. Buffie Keys:<br \/>\nThese unlock Buffies. The cool part?<br \/>\nVault Keys can be saved up across seasons, so you can save up<br \/>\nfor stuff you really want. Like another Ultra Legendary Brawler. We made these changes<br \/>\nto the Brawl Pass that allows you to have more choice over your unlocks. If you don&#8217;t like the current options, you can still get value from the Pass<br \/>\nby saving up your Vault Keys. We buffed the Free Pass. We added ten new reward milestones. You can see the whole breakdown<br \/>\nof the buffs in our previous blog post or in Content Creator videos. The tail reward will now give you<br \/>\nrandom rewards instead of Starr Drops. This should make it a bit<br \/>\nmore exciting to gain XP after you completed your Pass. We made the Free Pass even better.<br \/>\nAlongside ten new rewards and a Vault Key, it also includes the new Starr Drop type:<br \/>\nChaos Drops. BRAWL TALK<br \/>\nCHAOS DROPS More, more new stuff?<br \/>\nNew Chaos Drops. Chaos Drops are the most<br \/>\npowerful variant of Starr Drops. Their lowest rarity is Super Rare,<br \/>\nand their highest, Ultra Starr Drops. Chaos Drops also have a chance<br \/>\nto split up to eight times. Wow.<br \/>\nWow. If the Chaos Drop splits,<br \/>\nit will keep the same rarity. This means you can get eight<br \/>\nUltra Legendary Chaos Drops in one go. -The Ultra Chaos Drops contain&#8230;<br \/>\n-Hypercharges. Mythic, Legendary,<br \/>\nand Ultra Legendary Brawlers. Epic, Mythic, Legendary<br \/>\nand Hypercharged Skins. and Buffies. Chaos Drops will be available<br \/>\nin the Brawl Pass and also have a chance<br \/>\nof being in your Daily Rewards. BRAWL TALK<br \/>\nNEW GAME MODES More, more, more new stuff?! Gigi&#8217;s new Hypercharge. Her Super now also deals damage<br \/>\non arrival, not just when she leaves. -New game mode:<br \/>\n-Safe Blast. Pick up and deliver bombs to destroy<br \/>\nyour opponent&#8217;s base.

Team up with your fave<br \/>\nand defeat bosses together. Brawl Ball and Brawl Hockey If the ball or puck is still in motion<br \/>\nwhen the game timer ends, the game will last until<br \/>\nit scores or stops moving. Let&#8217;s go, clutch buzzer beater.
