However, some brand-new additions will be available, from roster expansions to fan-favorite game modes. We’ll break down all the new and returning content from theBrawl StarsClassic Brawl Update patch notes.

All Brawl Stars Classic Brawl Update changes

Meet thenew Brawlersfrom the Classic Brawl Update,Clancy (Mythic) and Berry (Epic). If you enjoy playing the support role, Berry is your go-to choice. His unique trait of healing and damaging enemies makes him an excellent support Brawler. On the other hand, if you prefer to be a heavy hitter, Clancy, a Damage Dealer specialist, is the one for you.

Frank, Meg, and Chester have all been improved, making their performances more accessible and easier to handle. In particular, Chester’s Star Power Bell’o’mania has been replaced by the ‘Single Bell’o’mania,’ which now inflicts a whopping 200 percent damage.

This designated fighter will change throughout the event to spice things up. As for Drum Roll, each player starts with the same Brawler, but this time, they transform into a new one after a successful takedown.
