This is the story of how a simple 2D fighting game gave me anger issues.
for my opinion this game sucks legit
its grind after grind the comunity sucks and there are a lot of spamers
they dont buff or nerf the wepons which suck cuz ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ axe and scythe are the most op weapons in this game
they are 2 rule if you want to enjoy this pice of trash
1: dont play ranked if you want to destroy your controler or your monitor or if you want play 2v2 ranked
2: play with your frends dont play solo cuz sucks every time

My conclusion:
The game works pretty well in theory. It's quite similar to Super Smash Bros, which is a game that many people enjoy, myself included. You pick a character with a simple weaponset consisting of two weapons. The weapons include spears, katars, scythes, swords, gauntlets, blasters, axes, bows, hammers, and cannons and now a orb My personal main, Orion, utilizes rocket lance and spear.

After choosing your character, you'll enter the game. You'll notice that the characters have both light attacks and heavy attacks, or signature attacks, which you can use in chain combos. Each character has original signature moves; no two legends are the same.
With the basics out of the way, you'll probably find yourself having some fun in a simple matchmaking or bot game. You'll play a few rounds, get a grip on what you're doing, and log off for a while, having enjoyed some harmless fun on an innocent looking game.

The game has a great art style and a great soundtrack, I'll give it that. You can tell the developers made an attempt to make a game that could be enjoyed by everybody.

Well, try not to let these first impressions impact you to hard. Past the surface, this game and its community are on a whole new level of toxicity, chaos, and general despair. In fact, I'd even compare Brawlhalla to a drug. On the surface and on light occasions, Brawlhalla is general, good fun, especially with friends. However, if you start liking it a little too much, or if you want to get better, the trouble begins. Now, where to start?

First of all, the game can be incredibly frustrating. Gaming rage is inevitable in pretty much every game. It might even be healthy to let off a little steam. This game, however? Brawlhalla has given me some of the worst gaming rage I've ever had.

Hey, difficult games are perfectly acceptable. There are countless examples of games where deaths feel fair and deserved and make you want to persevere through them to the end, making the reward even more satisfying. It's intoxicating in the best way. It makes you feel great!

In Brawlhalla, however, almost every death is completely unfair. Even now, I still play matches where I'm left shaking my head in disbelief at some of the brutality that comes rolling my way. It makes me want to play more, not because I feel good about what I'm doing but because I feel like I need to prove myself or get better to try and get past whatever stupidly unjust attack I'm hit with to no avail. It's a brutal endless cycle that keeps pulling you back for more.

The spamming problem in Brawlhalla is a major one, but it really is a simple fix. Add cooldown times to attacks after using them three times or so in a row to encourage players to experiment with more attacks and combos. This would not only fix the spam problem, it would build skill and better tactics for the next battle.


As a usually pretty sensible guy, I never thought that one game would have such a negative impact on my life. I beg of you, if you want to keep your family, friends, free time, and anything else dear to you, avoid this game at all costs.


thats all i have to say i dont want to play this game anymore only small exception with frends

Purity so you cant counter spam in gold? GOLD? Thats legit the easiest rank to counter spam because most people are normal players and less spammers. Its super easy to counter if you know how to play the game and not do shit and spam.
