Did I forget anything? Let me know 🐻
U said supercharges, it’s hypercharges
Maybe that at the start you said it regained popolarity in 2023 when it actually happened in 2020?
u forgot the additionn of powerplay and power league i think but im not sure
You forgot the removal of chroma credits and chromatic brawlers

This game has quite literally become a social phenomenon in our school, if people where on there phone, they where 80% playing brawl stars
for us its clash royale
@@babyalexanderIt was clash for our school until supercell ruined it so everybody quit
same here lol
This is so real
Same
It's also kind of a chain reaction. I used to play brawl stars back in the old days, but quit in 2020. A couple weeks ago, some people at my school started playing brawl stars together. I also joined, not wanting to miss out on the fun, and with me were many others who started playing again to be able to play with friends. Now, basically everyone, even people outside of school, are playing brawl stars.
Same
Same
Same
Literarly the same thing happened to me
I think the exact same thing happened around the country, a person started playing it, and it just spread out like crazy
I think the reason for the new popularity is some nostalgia mixed with a chain reaction. I started playing brawl stars again due to nostalgia, got a couple of my friends on, they got a couple of their friends on, and so on. Now there is like. 30 people playing at my school.
how do you know the number of people playing..
everyone plays in my school, EVERYONE, even the girls play it, i wouldnt be surprised if we made an event or tournament LOL
@@alecuscapproximate
nostalgic for brawl stars? nah i'm geting way too old💀
@@aeyes1314 same but i'm really annoyed by it cuz i used to be the best player in my country and i still am even if i'm inactive but the kids are on me all the time
This feels like I’m watching a Netflix documentary.
But bette
dont compare this to something not good like netflix
Because you are
thats the problem
Its like all the video in YT with over 10mln views from a 100k subscribers guy
Crazy how good editing and pacing makes people forget this is just 8 minute of yapping about update notes in chronological order
I’d like this comment but it’s at 123 so no😊
Crazy
I searched way too long for a comment where someone's realizing that the title is not what the video is about
So true, legit just a timeline video
I also loves that he doesn't even bother to add any number (or even a source) on his main data, "chart go up, trust me bro™"
the only reason the game is blowing up is due to clash royale players moving over cuz the devs in this game actually 'listen to feeback'
Lots of old players are coming back, like me i started in 2018.
That would be me
thats definitely not a reason, maybe a small factor.
Hit it right on the nose! That’s my exact reason for stopping clash Royale and going to Brawl stars instead
Yeah 30% of our class were playing clash now it's bs
I felt like I was watching a 400k-1M subscriber video
Same I felt like was watching some BS famous *UA-camr*
Really good quality

I just noticed it because you said so.

I would not say that 5v5 was the reason for the increase of players In October 2023, I remember just randomly thinking about Brawl Stars and said to my friends "You guys remember Brawl Stars?". So everyone started playing again, we made a club, we played costume matches in class and we grinded ranked. We still play every day!
Blud ur not special people came back bcs of the updeits
@@zkilerex9661 Ah yes, because clearly my personal experience and the revival of my entire friend group's interest in Brawl Stars is completely insignificant compared to yours. But hey, if you prefer to live in a world where individual stories don't matter, who am I to burst your bubble, Blud?
@@nixolatsto ur not the main character bud 💀
@@zkilerex9661 Bud why do you care
@@zkilerex9661 Be quiet please
this might be the highest quality video that youtubes gatekeeping
Not at all, the creator didnt't told many details about added features like 11 level made the game more p2w and how gears were very expensive in the begining, and how devs reworked them entirely later. Or how devs made 2nd brawl pass cost gems so that f2p players could get much more resources. The list goes on. This video were very short with details just enough for 8 minutes so yt would play the creator for it.
@@mageenta I'm not gonna lie, I ain't readin allat but good for you

0:02 congratulations, you got my attention
I feel like no one sees the rise brawl stars from the fall of clash Royale.
Yea clash royale boring now and clash of clan is lame
i actually returned to brawl stars after not playing for 4 years because clash royale got so bad
@@Alex-jl4hsit is just pay to win
Came here to say this. Clash royale became unplayable with how quickly they added new levels. It became impossible to keep up without spending money. Brawl stars you can just pick it up whenever and have fun
fr. I used to play CR with my friends in every school break as recently as 3 months ago but now it's absolutely ass and it has been replaced by Brawl stars
Bro did one of the greatest researches I've ever seen and than said "well they did a couple of good decisions"
Great job Mrbear
This is Such a GOOD VIDEO why do you have 253 Subscribers!!
honestly though just the first 3 seconds deserves thousands of subs
He gained 100 Subs💀☠️💀💀
For real tho
Prob bc he started small 2 months ago
This editing style is so fucking common, almost every youtuber like this has this editing style
Its funny how this is an universal phenomenon bc I live in Switzerland and everyone is starting to play Brawl stars again
as someone who played brawl stars since day 1, it’s nice to see that the games gaining popularity again as it was one of my favourite games to play, especially after school. Also, does anyone remember that one update around 2018 where you could upgrade brawlers with a weird new currency? It’s been on my mind for a while
Removing boxes was the best idea in the whole ontife game
Ikr, but it seems people like short-term dopamine hits so that's why they were mad when boxes were removed
@@omaralaa9436true. even tho now we unlock legendaries 2x faster, people want that random odds for a second of dopamine hit
Lol I agree with both of you. This outuber did remove a lot of context tho, focusing on primarily the negative. He didn't show the majority that was actually happy with brawl boxes removed, he instead showed the gambling addicted kids. Same with the brawl pass 1.0 and 2.0 update. He excluded the positive aspects of each update, like how 2.0 was better for both f2p and p2w players alike.
@@Insaniac420gambling was fun, especially saving up hundreds of boxes and opening them all at once
@@xenird"gambling was fun" tf 💀💀💀
I didn’t hear anything about this game at my school at all but all of a sudden literally everyone in my classes are talking about it. I started playing brawl stars 3-4 years ago and got addicted to it but stopped playing after a few months but I made a new account and I’m playing again because of all the talk about it
Ken as a example of a new player with his depressed suici had me laughing 😂
bro literally dodnt explain anything just the history of brawl stars
Fr
He explained how it got popular. The short answer is that brawl stars played their marketing stratagies well and gained attention from it through social media
The fact that u didnt talk about the lore related stuff that appeared in 2020 that had a major impact on the popularity of the game is unbelievable
By making the game much more complex and pay to win they gave a reason for people to grind. Unbalanced and overpowered brawlers over fairness actually made playing fun again.
I played Brawl Stars in the early days of the game. I dropped it cause I just couldn’t get into it. I played Clash Royale and was enjoying, my roommate did, and all my friend’s from high school made a clan in the game. Clash Royale started falling off in popularity with me when they added card evolutions. It was a slow downhill from there. Later on, I was watching a TikTok about Clash Royale and a comment appeared saying Clash’s downfall has lead to a lot of Supercell fans to switch over to Brawl Stars (this was in between the start of the enchanted forest season and Doug’s release 2023). I redownloaded Brawl Stars and started playing again. I’m happy I made the decision to stay playing. It’s a fun game has layers to it, when Clash feels methodic and it feels like the same thing over and over. The Brawlers kept me playing. They’re so much fun! The unique personalities, the friendly community (there are toxic ones sure but those are going to be everywhere), and it feels like the game devs want to make this a fun game that sticks.
Its because of melodie and her beautiful personality
don't forget my queen janet and charlie as well😊
No it happened in october 2023 molodie came in march 2024

This is crazy high quality for how little views it has. I thought the video must have had at least a few hundred thousand views and looked down only to find 21K views, and 1,04K subs. Anyhow, you've earned yourself a new subscriber, awesome work man.
cant tell if the voice is ai
The script is definitely ai but not sure bout the voice
This script is grating actually so stilted and awkward
@@shortcake9965 yea, i think they ran it thru ChatGPT like twice at most? The grammar is awful and referring to supers as "superpowers" is just a dead giveaway that a human didn't write it.
personally, while playing back in 2019 i was quite annoyed at the progression system and i even quit because of it, rates were low on boxes and you never unlocked the brawler you truly wanted, and upgrading system was bad in my opinon
a friend of mine installed it again and i saw that now you can choose what brawler you unlock and that it's a guaranteed to unlock them and now you could upgrade the brawlers you wanted quickly, rather than having to wait to get all the power power points individually, i even bought the pass since it was pretty affordable in my opinions, i've been loving every update and glad it's regaining its popularity
I am currently a freshman in high school and whenever you see someone playing brawl stats you get this excitement that someone else plays the game and you end up either adding them to play or you start asking them about certain things about the game
I think actual reason is behind insane rewards brawl stars realased regulary. One in 2023/4 being Mico, he was free Durning brawlidays and everyone rushed to get him, making giant apocalypse like Edgar did in 2020/21,gray and grom also made but not enough. People by joining remember old nostalgic things from brawl stars so they got interest and started playing again. Another reason could be new ranked feature. By competing in it much like power league not only you get decoration for your battle card but also getting ranked stardrops, wich gave brutal skins from power league or bling. More reasons are probably mega pigs, 100 stardrops, brawler updates and more
Brawl stars is rising more and more and I got big feeling next brawl talk will bring smth awesome so player base can enjoy. Brawl stars might face big ups and downs but brawl stars is not so but still young game only old 6-7 years old and has huge future
Plus the clash royale hate cause of p2w
That's why bs popularity has increased
However I have a doubt whether mega pig or Even ranked. The last one is not competitive at all with the modifiers. Apart from it its better than power league. (The skin should be purchasable for gems after diamond).
@@lazy_guy_2525ranked has no competitiveness? bro is probably on diamond 2
With the modifiers it isn't
I used to play brawl stars around 4 years ago and got bored fast so I stoped playing it. I got back into the game after clash royal added 2 evo slots as I was under leveled in a high place. I still play both.
Exactly how I started brawl stars😭😭 clash slowly got boring for me
This channel is getting 100k subs in 3 months just wait
True
Everyone in my school started to play it
The only reason why I started bs again is because my girlfriend played it so I redownloaded it to start it up again
I was looking at a video expecting you to have like 400k subs and was shocked when I noticed you have so few, I hope you get many more subs
REAL
Bro, im an og brawl stars player, so happy to see my fav game back into business
My school is 99% addicted to brawl stars
I’ve been playing since 2019, around the start of 2021 I quit playing just because I disliked the brawl pass addition, I came back in 2023 and it’s almost a whole new game mechanic wise, but honestly, I’ve been grinding for about a year and it’s still so fun
I started playing the game again 2 weeks ago, as did all my friends, so convenient timing! The main reason I came back was Clash Royale was getting way too boring and leveling up cards in order to even stand a chance against players was too arduous. I came back around the time when brawl starts gave everyone 100 starr drops, so that kind of incentivized me to give it another shot. And the dev team I feel cares more about this game compared to the dev team for clash. Another thing is I don’t worry about losing 30 trophies if I lose a match, so progression after a loss isn’t too arduous. It’s been fun so far.
There's a couple misunderstandings in this video, and the main thing is that whenever brawl stars added a new update it was almost always a buff to f2p players. When the brawler system changed from boxes to credits, there was a huge increase in how many brawlers you would unlock each update, and when the brawl pass changed to a paid pass, it was also a buff to f2p players as the pass each season gave more progression overall then if you saved 169 gems every 2 season to buy the brawl pass also meaning that they could save their gems for other things.
Brawl stars did not get famouse bcs of 5v5 evryone just randomly started playing it agein
I think the fall of clash royale caused this large spike in popularity, mainly due to p2w updates, many came to brawl stars. As the popularity rose, old players began to start playing the game again.
idek why i started playing again. no one mentioned it, nothing in my mind was giving me a reason. I just suddenly remembered the game and was eager to play again
just started playing brawl stars again after 2 years, and i love it!
Nice video, and nice choice of lemmino's soundtrack!
everyone started randomly playing this game after 3 years. i have no idea what happened
This is so true I never heard of Brawl Stars until about a month ago when everyone at my school started playing it when I say everyone I mean everyone I decided to try it out and now I’m addicted to it and can’t stop playing
Brawl Stars was underwhelming for me in 2023. But I saw someone playing brawl Stars at my school, then I started playing again and since then it’s been incredibly fun
criminally underrated
2:34 NO WAY HE PUT LAVVEK
I was surprised too
Hahah to sam i ja hteo da napišem sad
I started in 2019, stopped, and came back 2 weeks ago. Nothing specific even brought me back, but when I did, suddenly everyone else around me at school coincidentally did as well, primarily during class. The CCTV videos helped keep me hooked on the game though, not sure why
Man this guy has less than a thousand views and makes some of the highest quality video
This is such a well edited video you deserve much better! Keep up the good work!
I never realized just how impactful their frequent balance changes have been. It’s what’s pulled me back into the game numerous times to play a brawler I didn’t really like but is suddenly strong or playing whatever is strong in the meta. Compared to clash Royale where they barely drop balance changes and hog rider, mega knight, and evo firecracker are still some of the most annoying cards ever
The new monster egg is op
What got me back into brawl stars was hyper charges
I used to be addicted to this in 2020-2021 and the start of 2022 and rhen gir bored and stopped playing. Recently, some people at school mentioned it as a joke about the 2020-2022 years, it then we actually got into it again and i have been having a lot of fun
The really reason is the decline In clash royal leading to school kids looking for another game to play
Exactly. CR was getting worse and worse so most people that played just made the switch
Next generation gromio 😂
I think the reason is: starrs aligned. I left the game some three years ago due to addiction. Now I just returned for no reason. And the game is nicer: you can direct the brawler you want to maximize first, and the brawler you want to pick first.
My school went through some phases of the boys all playing a video game and the 2nd biggest stage was Clash Royale. Now everyone at my school, boys and girls, are playing Brawl Stars with my friend followed shortly after by me being the first to start playing it which got the attention of others to get the game or get back into it.
Cause it became. tiktok trend
I've been playing consistently for a while. My school had an "outbreak" of sorts, where almost everyone (2200 people) play pretty often, including teachers
Crazy quality and even more crazily underrated. Keep it up!! Glad this video is blowing up❤
immediately realised the lemmino's cipher theme! great video!
Bro i live in berlin and i really have never seen a video game blow up as much as brawl stars(not even close)
Like no matter where i go i see people playing this game
i first started playing a few days before the hundred starr drops. i only started because all my friends played it and i wasnt gonna miss out. i think its actually really fun
Oh wow, I used to play it 4 years ago, grinding become sad and repetitive :( then star drops were added? Boxes removed? At that point, I was done, I had left… until a few years after where ai continued to start grinding Mr. P, and that’s when I got back to the game…
in Turkey it got very popular over the months, i believe it might have an impact
i picked up the game in elementary school and its been a huge part of my childhood... but i gotta say whenever you take a year long break dont expect to understand shit after coming back.
I used to play brawl stars during 2020 I think? Back then when I was a kid my dad made me delete the game because it got too addicting so then I moved on and never touched brawl stars again, fast forward 2 years I saw an ad about brawl stars and thought it would be great if I were to relive my memories, so I asked my dad if I was able to get a game on my iPad, my dad obviously forgot about brawl stars so he accepted and I redownloaded brawl stars. The problem was, I missed so many free items and I moved onto other games that I didn’t get the same feeling I used to have, the fun I had playing with friends at school and meeting randoms that I would soon play with as friends (long forgotten now 😢). I decided I wouldn’t touch brawl stars again as all my friends moved on and it was just me, I didn’t feel the same so brawl stars was long forgotten from my memory. Fast forward another 2 years and I realised for some reason, all my friends started playing brawl stars again! I’m not sure why but one day a friend of mine decided to play brawl stars and his whole friend group decided to. I was in a different state so I didn’t know about him playing, but then for some reason some of my other friends decided to go back to playing too! And obviously with everyone going back to brawl stars, I decided to go back and check the game again. SADLY, I logged on 4 days after the free 100 starr drops event occurred so I got nothing 😂. But now I realised how fun the game was and ads are popping up everywhere about brawl stars funny characters like poop spike.
If you listened this far then thanks for your time 👍
I graduated in 2022 from 8th grade to 12th grade all I did was play brawl stars. It’s Unfortunate that back then no one played brawl stars except my best friend. Would’ve been cool to build a clan and 1v1 everyone
Glad to see someone talking about this.
EVERYONE in my school is playing it.
The game seems to be at it’s highest this year pretty much everyone I know plays the game, even people at my school talk about it
I join this game originally when Akshon Esports mentions it and also forget that this game was close to being cancelled And also they say it’s for business is the reason why they made it not free anymore to keep the game alive.
it also became popular in my school, back then, only me and another guy played brawl stars, but then, some ppl decided it was a cool game and tried it, we all then kept playing together, and other kids in our school also started downloading the game, it was so fun, whenever a 5v5 mode was on, we'd all gather to play, i think this is sort of a chain reaction
I started back in 2018, around a week after global release. I remember playing for around 2 or so years, and then eventually quitting during 2020, around the same time you said it started to decrease in popularity. Then, I randomly started playing again in 2023 and still going hard now, since everyone around me started playing as well. Now, pretty much my entire school plays the game, and it's popularity is higher than I've seen it in 2018.
yeah right? i dont know what happend but everyone suddenly started playing again, most of my friends started playing brawl stars for no reason and then it spreaded like a virus throughout the entire class
as someone who didnt play brawl stars when everyone around me was during 2018-2019, even i started to play recently
I've been playing on and off since 2017 and I'm top 100 in my country. I had a long period of like a few years or something where i didn't play, and i for sure thought the game was lost after the removal of boxes. But for me the Masteries update was so incredibly important. It gave a reason to play and something to flex. Half of the time i play the game it's to get a title. And also many of the new updates are just crazy good, i love this game😍
in my school only a little people played brawl stars but now for like few weeks A LOT of my friends and classmates started playing
I started playing right when the game started falling of and it is really good to see it back also how many trophies do u guys have? I have 35k
1:41 made me cry of nostalgia
i was playing a lot in 2019 n 2020, took a break and came back in 2021, took a longer break, the 100 free starr drops brought me back into the game and ive been playing it for hours ever since lol
Also ads have something to do with it bc i saw and still see brawl stars ads almost everywhere
Last school year was when I first heard of it, back then it wasn’t that popular at our school. This school year a lot more people played it even my friends so I decided to start playing about 3 weeks ago.
I mostly Play league of legends and recently picked up brawlstars. I'm happy with how a lot of mechanics are similar . It makes for an easy transition
Simple, The live viewcount for the brawl stars brawl talk yesterday was 1.1 million
i feel like the popularity mainly went up when boxes were removed. It was a nice change of pace after the staleness or season 9-14,which was when i stopped playing brawl stars. tons of f2p stuff were released like credits, masteries and bling which were probably the peak of brawl stars but not enough monetization. of course, they added something for it which were hypercharges which, i think are actually a good part of the game. they also were smart on which hypercharges they wanted to release. they gave it to some of the most loved and popolar brawlers and also the new brawlers for something for players to look up to so now in the state of brawl stars, the game is actually better than when boxes were in the game. most of you are just blinded by the nostalgia of boxes and the adrenaline rush that it gave you when the numbers were glowing. for me, i kind of agree about boxes since gold were easier to get but comparing it with starr drops, they were a lot less well recieved but still better than boxes (controversial opinion) and yes i think that brawl stars was at its peak at season 19 where the meta was just fun to be in and i had the time of my life during season 19 anyways i quit typing
i used to be the sole guy in my school that still played this game, last year i formed a trio with a new kid and another guy who i found out still played, and this year everybody started playing all of a sudden
I love the use of Lemmino music. Great video.
Nice video! Where did you get those transitions from the intro?
In our school it's gotten so big we're not allowed to take our phones to school anymore
for some reason at the beginning of the school year, i and a few other people only played it. but now its like everyone in my school
I feel like people first started p,aying when they we're like 12, then stopped cuz they got too old, and now are playing again just for the fun and nostalgia. I don't think anything discussed in this video really has anything to do with it but the megaboxes part
This game gave a huge amount of fun to us that we even play this much without boxes😢 sad about boxes but happy about more players
Almost all of my school is playing brawl stars, even the girls because of me. I quit a long time ago but kind of wanted to try it again to see how it is now and it made a chain reaction to my whole school. Now a lot of people are playing and I'm really happy.
I recently returned to this game, had it for a while but wasn't playing it, opened it when I heard about the free 100x starr drops, and have stuck around ever since
It's funny because while I've been playing since global launch, all my friends in school just started playing it now.
My entire school for some reason:
"Hmm, now would be a great time to make brawl stars super popular again for no reason at all."
the 100 star drops made me come back and i'm playing since then
