Thanks a ton for having me on as a guest! It was great to join the discussion!

This is not just a podcast, it’s a crash course on game design 😂❤

What a FIRE podcast 🔥🔥🔥🔥

I would love to see Paula on here next time I feel like she would be good in the podcast

There are so many things going on!

OH MY GOD THANK YOU !!!! There was no better choice than Kairos for this !

I really hope they don't cancel this series. I've always loved when KZbinrs (or game devs in this case) get real with their audience (Ex. Peeling the Orange) and this is no exception.

Please add a way to sort brawler as per their mastery point 😢 eg. Sam - 5980 mastery point Nani - 4878 mastery point Pam - 2871 mastery point etc.. Please like the comment so that the brawl stars dev team can see it

Keep up the good work this podcast was amazing!!

brawl stars is one of the few games where i really feel like the devs talk to the community

I have a special reason for loving the Brawl Stars team more than the game itself. In an industry where big companies like Ubisoft, EA, and Activision are showing more and more greed, it's rare to find a company that prioritizes players over money. I really appreciate how open and responsive the management team of Brawl Stars is to the community. They listen to feedback and make changes to the game when there's a problem. Hats off to all of you!

As a buzz main and someone who has the Born Bad title I'm super happy with where buzz is right now

Early on in my Brawl Stars journey, I fell in love with the game and decided I'd support it as much as I could. And that was by buying every skin. To this day, the only skin I'm missing (besides the majority of True Gold/Silver) is Starr Shelly. Listening to the podcasts talking about the things you guys talk about has made me feel good in supporting you guys so immensely. Please keep up the good work. I know I'm only one voice in the ocean of many, but I really, seriously, sincerely appreciate the communication and dedication the Brawl Stars team has with us the community.,

I really love bling, now I can buy skins as a f2p

Yas! Direct communication with developers is the absolute best thing! This podcast idea was amazing♥️

Bling wasn't a mistake, amazing update, other games never let you the ability to gain cosmetics without spending cash, and now the game is 0% gambling. Also the free pass is a thing that in other games u get a small reward every 10 tiers, you actually made it good and even made the better pass available for gems which by saving gems for 2 seasons you could get it. best game.

hats off to the devs man, love u guys, stay blessed, means a lot when u guys do something like this, cause rn a lot of game devs are like the pure opposite of passionate.

THE WAY KAIROS JUST SMILED CREEPILY😂0:16

Hi brawl stars!! Thank you for being the most interactive developer community constantly keeping us updates and giving sneak peaks! Your game is the supercell game I’ve been playing the longest without quitting

Oooh nice new type of video from the Brawl stars official channel! It will be nice to see what’s to come and all the improvements that will come with this!

2018:No time to explain! 2023:Time to explain!

YES! Please simplify all the progression systems into one. And PLEASE overhaul map maker! Make it INSANE. The community will make the maps and modes for you! I want capture the flag, 5v5, 3v3v3 showdown, Wave based survival, Payload, Ect. Wear we can customize almost every aspect of the game mode and rules. Thanks supercell!

idea! Brawl stars you can put boxes where you can get skins any type (rare, super rare...legendary) OR a spinning wheel than boxes to get skins

Glad to see this podcast is going to be an ongoing thing, it’s very insightful and entertaining

Yes I think bing was a mistake 😂, glad to see Kairos on this episode! (Might want to fix the spelling in title lmao)

Thank you dev team and camera crew for the amazing job and time you all took after work to make this happen kudos(red flaming thumbs up) 🔥👍

Great podcast!! Glad to see the Brawl Stars devs and community managers caring about the community

Tysm for been so awesome with the community! Much love!

You guys never upset me! 4 years strong you guys make changes and updates and I always appreciate the work you do

I don't think bling was a mistake, but it felt weird having the secondary theme of the update basically be... A currency... And for cosmetics. I mean, it's kinda cool to have a free-to-play way to spend gems, and now we be real about actually wanting skins, even if they feel a bit less hard to get, honestly Bling and related changes make things clear, it's just not necessarily as big as presented. Hockey soon:tm: tho

Kairos literally represents the community he knows exactly what he's talking about and he knows each and every single flaw the game currently has, so having him as a guest for a podcast about the state of the game is smart

As you mentioned in the poscast to write constructive criticism there is some ideas to change the training mode: 1. To reset a gadget inside of training mode; 2. To add a moving robot

Thank you all for doing this. These are super informative and impressive. Been playing since launch and this makes me want to support you and SuperCell even more. KT did a great job as well. Super engaging.

I knew Kairos was gonna bring it until this! I knew he was not going to let this Bling situation slide

As someone currently studying game dev, this podcast was really interesting to me I'm really greatful of how much you give details about your work and all

Love love love the communication and insight from devs. Even when they are being brutally honest and speed buisness , it’s nice to hear the reasoning behind big additions and changes

Brawl stars is the favourite game of all of us . I wish the update which is coming will be interesting for all of us. Thank you 🙏🙏

I don't even think rewards from Kudos needs to be a thing, it could just be a nice way to be positive in game as it is the goal of it right now. If they did what they talked about, improving the ux so that more people would feel inventivized to use it that would be great already :)

I love how if something does end up going wrong with the update or if something isnt good about the uldate it almost immediatly gets fixed. Love you Brawl stars team❤

Please keep doing these, love seeing this type of insight into the game. :)

Great podcast :D I've been playing since near global release, so I've seen a lot of changes. Currently I still have my major concerns, but the team seems to already be aware of all of them. Even if "fixes" or "overhauls" aren't coming soon, it's nice to see them acknowledged.

Love the podcasts. Good to have it run in the background while doing stuff. Even come back to it multiple times just to finish this podcast. 🤔😎👍

This is why I love the brawl stars devs. They listen to the players and make us understand why some features are how they are. 👍

Thanks for this, today was very tiring for me and I wanna end the day listening to the podcast.

I loved this last update! I think it gave the game a refreshing feeling with the kudos, the play of the game and the star player. I do think that playing with randoms should be somewhat reworked but otherwise I love evrything this game has to offer ^^

Hello brawl stars team as first i like to say i play this game for 4 years straight and didnt quit. I’ve seen many people on tiktok twitter and youtube that wants boxes back and that they will come back to the game if u want those players back atleast bring a system like this: we still get credits but with credits we don’t get brawlers we actually get/can buy the boxes this way boxes will not be p2w + players will be pleased because the reason they didn’t like the boxes were of the p2w and luck factory right? But if u guys make something like that u can buy boxes with credits, i am for sure and hope that atleast the og community will comeback into the game the starr road is an good idea but it just doesn’t give the same hype if we can get credits from tournaments trophy road brawl pass and the others then we should be able to buy boxes instead of credits not only the players will return this way but also famous youtubers, because the main reasons they left was that the boxes were removed and that the gems were overpriced but because boxes will be f2p everyone can only buy gems for skins or either brawl pass. I hope u do see this comment and maybe think about it cause i know many (turkish) youtubers who were incredible p2w to make content since that was a way to earn money but now that boxes got away they got no content anymore but if you make a system where we can buy boxes with credits youtubers could grind alot credits and when a new brawler came out they would record it and the title would be this: i spared many credits for this brawler or idk maybe like : i finally got the brawler after amount of boxes this was my idea and hope u guys see it have a nice day!

Kairos did a goodjob to represent the comunity 💪

These Podcasts Are Incredibles ❤

This is what I mean of having a high performance team, open to discuss with the clients (Community) the path or course of the business, prioritaze things to do, and keep the great job. Congrats for the great achivements and efforts BS staff! I'm pretty sure working with Supercell and Brawl Stars is giving a you as an employee a own statisfaction that a big companies are not fullfilying to its employees.

It's amazing how much involvement the community has. Can't wait for those PVE modes btw.

Guys you work so hard you're incredible !! The game is really cool I love it if I lose its not your fault. We still love you (Collette) Thank you so much for making fang

from my experience, a lot of the experienced and long term players like me that spend money on the game find it very very frustrating that we haven’t even gotten the option to vote for siege for the community slot. Sure it wasn’t popular at the end of its life cycle, yet it was still popular and engaging enough to stay in thw game for a long while before that. bringing it back would definitely allow it to be popular for at least a little bit.

Love haw you work so hard for the community

Another podcast!! ❤ I love the way you guys are taking the game! You are one of the best devs out there ❤ Keep it up! 🔥

1:37:28 This is by far the most hilarious section I didn’t expect to be funny 😂 Dani telling something to KT while his facial expressions change to chill elevator music 🤣 Dani is a treasure honestly

ВАШЕ ТЕКУЩЕЕ МЕСТОПОЛОЖЕНИЕ НЕ МОЖЕТ ПОСТАВИТЬ ВАМ ЛАЙК

I love the care that they take with Brawl Stars and its community, I don't get why people have to curse them when they've already shown they care and solve the problems, bruh...

This is a thought I had and I don’t think it will get any feed back but I think it will be cool to implement a new rarity into the game where you can create your own brawlers like the mii fighters in smash. Also I would like to add onto the kudos concept by introducing blame, it would be like kudos but as a thumb down. And I can’t be the only one who noticed that there is no chromatic thrower and I believe that the chromatic rarity should have all the classes. These are just my thoughts and I don’t expect anything to be done immediately or anything like that but I just wanna put my voice out there. I really enjoy this game and I want to put in as much thought as the devs.

Super Informational Podcast! Bling is very very nice but i think you should make epic pins a little more cheap, cause 1500 bling is very much.

Ohh podcast fikri mükemmel Bu oyunu seviyorum çünki çok eğlenceli❤

Maybe add some brawlers who could only be unlocked by the randomness, whether it be boxes or a spin wheel or something else? This would encourage people to log in daily to claim their prizes and see if they lucky to unlock what they wanted?

The best Dev's team we can ever get man it's such a good way how they communicate with the community and keep the game updated according to the community! Hats off Brawl Stars Dev Team

I think power league really needs a rework on the resets, if the system stays, soon nobody will be masters anymore.

I think bling is really good add ngl imo

Kinda late but MAN i hope this series lives on i would love it to continue and see other members appear later on as well!! And another awesome episode!! 🔥🔥🔥

It was a really good podcast👏👏

The catalog was a great idea just keep making 🔥 skins like the mortis skin and the new god brock skin

Woah kairos in the podcast! Such a nice surprise

I really like how micro transactions works in this game, Its feels very balanced for me. This is the only game where I'm not regret to pay micro transactions. I never paid anything in other F2P games.

You guys never have made me feel sad once!look how you've evolved and how much talent you all devs have You never ever ever disappoint us and we all appreciate all your hard work you've made throughout all these 4 years❤❤hope you have a good day💞

I really love this game and the changes are mostly good, but i have an issue with too many power points and not enough coins to level up my brawlers, i would like in this next update or the next next update to be able to trade the power points for double or triple the coins of the amount you are willing to trade

Idk if this is a spot to ask questions but i always think of the time when in the starr force brawl talk you introduced a brawler named "Kit" and said the brawler wasn't ready... does that mean it's a forgotten idea ? Or it's just a concept that will be used someday ?

Maisie normal attack needed some changes. Need report system for toxic players who even don't play at beginning of the game and just click attack to avoid Ideal disconnect.

The fact that we can finally hear From the team and what goes through their head while making decisions is so... satisfiying

Hello super sat! I would like to suggest an idea for the next update :) You could do a collaboration with marvel. For example: Iron Man and Hulk Buster is Meg, Hulk is Frank

thank you for being the best game company ever

I love that the Brawl Stars team is one of the most interactive development team that i know. Really appreciate it! Also, is it wrong to ask for a Tara buff.

I think you need to increase the number of blings received, this problem worries most players

Kairos was the host of this podcast... He moved the topics, made the questions, put dev into deep discussion and made it following the hierarchy on that table. From commentry from the team, we could also see that Kairos spends a lot of time in the background talking about the game. Dude is really awesome!

You know it’s a good day if kairos is part of a podcast

Brawl Stars-Legend!!! I would like to see Brawl Talk season 19 as soon as possible.

I feel like I’m part of like a family with the Brawl Stars community, the devs are amazing and what not… but I’m really concerned about the amount of people that are getting their account stolen, I know some people that are exploiting some sort of fraude involving pvps and gems and they manage to get accounts for free. Even masters players accounts, this in my opinion should be addressed in some way.

The game is getting better with each update, I don't regret any dollar spent. But talking about gameplay, I think you guys could make the water on the maps a place where all brawlers pass. This would avoid several bugs due to this unique eve mechanic. Like: fang or buzz hit the super on eve and are teleported to the edge. Sam uses his gauntlet in the water and has no way to get it back. Mortis does not play against eve.🤡 The solution would be to put all the brawlers in a super slow speed when crossing the water, and eve would gain more speed on top of the water, and maybe even a slight shield or faster attack reload on top of the water. This could even bring maps with water to brawlball.

Brawl stars please do something about teaming 😢

Legendy❤

I listened to this podcast over the span of a few days and I can say that they have really shown how much they care about this community. I love supporting the brawl stars team because of this.

Hope to see some new improvements in the summer of ?

If anyone from the team sees this: Thank you, thank you, thank you, for reworking the trophy reset so quickly. I play at 56K trophies and the harsh resets were brutal if you accidentally dropped a few games pushing brawlers you had at 900+ trophies. I’m so grateful for that change-I enjoy Brawl Stars being fun, not stressful!

Love these podcasts and the team answering all the questions that the community has! One question I have for the team is there a way we could have a return option for skins? I have 4 Darryl skins and as a mostly F2P player I def dont need that many. 2 of them are the bix darryl skins and the other is D4rryl from brawl pass, i don't expect the team to take back free skins they give out but I bought Mascot Darryl along time ago before the other skins came out and I never use it, I was wondering if there was a way like other games we could return cosmetics for a partial amount of gems or bling back?

I write Russian through a translator, but explain to us will the boxes be returned?

from channel Bubs: You did the right thing. Because with the removal of boxes, they became completely selfless, new skins for 500, 2500, 10000 starpoints did not appear, and the old ones were all bought long ago.

The new hero is very strong. I hope you lower his powers a little.

Dani, legenda esses vídeos por favor, queremos saber o que está rolando também 🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

😂I enjoyed opening boxes and doing box openings for a new brawler. And with Bling only thing I like is that im able to get what skin that I want

You know, imo the current ways to resolve teaming in Showdown may not really work but it's so much fun seeing you guys try. The new modifiers are fun, i like that.

My suggestion for kudos is just add a count for it in the player's pages
