New Legend!

Community Request - Replays

New Game Mechanics (From Recent Test Features)

After a lot of testing, feedback, and discussion, we’ve decided to move a number of test features live. While we’re confident that these changes are good for the game, it doesn’t mean we’ll stop listening to feedback. Continue to let us know what you think, and we’ll continue to keep pushing the boundaries of Brawlhalla.

Weapon Spawn Changes

  • Weapon spawns will now alternate weapons on pickup.

  • Item spawning will not spawn more than two gadgets in a row.

  • Second spawn is always a weapon.

  • First spawn is a weapon and always spawns in the middle.

Clashing

  • Changed the rules for clash tie breaking so that grounded moves beat air moves. Slide charges are treated as ground moves. Gravity Cancels have higher priority than air but lower than ground. Previous tiebreakers (Strength, Damage) have been removed.

Speed Dodge

After some discussion we’ve decided to consolidate the terms ‘chase dodge’ and ‘momentum dodge’ into a single term - ‘Speed Dodge’. ‘Chase’ and ‘momentum’ refer to the different methods used to enter a ‘Speed Dodge’ but the result is always the same. This should clear up any confusion in current and future patch notes.

  • Speed Dodge Forgiveness: Landing a hit will allow you to speed dodge even if your dodge is on cooldown. Getting this speed dodge cannot lower your current cooldown. e.g., you can’t use it to get rid of extra cooldown from a gravity cancel. You can only get Speed Dodge Forgiveness once per cooldown period.

  • Canceling a Speed Dodge into an attack grants up to 10 invulnerability frames during the attack's startup frames. The invulnerability ends the first frame after a hitbox comes out.

  • Added a 14 frame delay after being hit before dodges are eligible to be Speed Dodges. This will prevent players from getting the momentum dodge bonus because of velocity from recently being hit.

New Test Features

We are exploring ways to encourage 2v2 teams to chase down enemies in 2v1 situations. This test feature makes hitting your teammate less lethal.

  • In 2v2 only 75% of Variable Force is applied to teammates.
