This article will guide you to all the recent changes and updates for Season 9, along with the release of the new brawler Lola, in Brawl Stars. Check here to see the balance changes, new challenges, new events, and more!

New Brawler - Lola

Lola will be the featured Chromatic Brawler of the Brawlywood Season. Lola is a superstar of Brawlywood who is extremely obsessed with herself. She loves offering tour guides, as well as talking about her career. She has a fake fox scarf with diamond eyes that shoot sparkly stars that shine as much as her!

Balance Changes

Nerfs

Mortis Star Power Nerf

Creepy Harvest	Star Power's heal is reduced from 1800 to 1400.
Developer Notes: "Mortis rework was overall a massive success and provided playability on all ranges without the need for a Star Power. As a result, though, his creepy harvest has been a bit too... creepy, so we toned it down in the hope that the reworked Coiled Snake could become more of an attractive choice."

Brock Attack Nerf

Leon Gadget Nerf

Lollipop Drop	Gagdet's HP now decays over a 20-second duration.
Developer Notes: "Leon has risen in popularity largely due to his lollipop providing massive utility. While it can be countered decently by throwers, it had the same issue as Bo’s Totem which in certain matches and comps, was providing too much value. Giving it decaying health (exactly like the current Bo’s Totem) means Leon players have to be more careful of when and where to use it."

Buffs

Frank Gadgets Buff

Irresistible Attraction	Gadget now doubles the damage along with pulling enemies in.
Active Noise Canceling	Gadget now give immunity to El Primo's Suplex Supplement Gadget.
Developer Notes: "Noise-canceling is a great gadget, except against El Primo’s Suplex. We fixed that for consistency, resulting in a small buff. El Primo didn’t like this change. Irresistible Attraction has been the less popular choice across the board. We hope giving it some burst to go along with the pull will make this a viable option."

Frank Stats, Skills, and Skins

Griff Star Power Buff

Business Resilience	Gadget now doubles the damage along with pulling enemies in.
Developer Notes: "Griff’s Business Resilience has largely been out of business (hehe) in comparison to Keep the Change. Good Griff players should now be able to constantly pressure their opponents better thanks to an increased amount of healing which was the original intention."

Griff Stats, Skills, and Skins

Meg Super Skill Buff

Tweaks

Ash Rage Adjustments

First Bash	Increased rage gained from the attacks from 100% to 200%.
Rage Reduction	Reduced rage gained from taking damage from 75% of max HP to 125% of max HP.
Developer Notes: "Ash has been in a pretty decent place overall, however, the reward from hitting enemies versus taking damage has been a bit off. Mad as Heck has also been outperforming First Bash significantly, so giving it a buff while tuning down overall rage gain from damage means the trash knight has to hit more attacks to get really angry."

Jacky HP and Super Skill Adjustments

Game Mode Changes and Event

Brawl-o-Ween Event

There aren't many changes to the rules on a Brawl-o-Ween map. It only has a modifier called Peek-a-Boo!, which makes all the Brawlers turn invisible every 7 seconds, for 7 seconds. It's time to use those short-ranged Brawlers as it will be easier to get close to enemies now!

Map Environment Changes

You will see the Brawlywood map environment throughout this season! There will also be Brawl-o-Ween decorations for it, giving you the Halloween feel at each event. You won't be seeing the Bazaar environment as well as it will be out this season.

Upcoming Challenges

Brawl-o-Ween Challenge

Participate through 9 matches to win an exclusive pin as a reward. You have a total of four lives, which means you'll lose the chance to get in on this challenge if you lose four times. You can always recharge it using gems if all of them are gone.
