In my last post, I was all about Count Pengula. Since then, things have only gotten better. Not only did I reach the end of the Brawl Pass with a few days left to spare, but the game kept the treats coming right up until the very end.
One of the biggest wins this Brawl-O-Ween has been my luck with those Halloween-themed loot boxes, Dead Boxes. They gave everyone 10 free Dead Boxes, and that made for some super looty goodness. I scored BOTH Cordelius and Moe! I would have been overjoyed with just one brawler, but TWO?! So good. And as if that wasn’t enough, the boxes coughed up a ton of Brawler Credits, which gave me just what I needed to unlock Chester and start unlocking Draco.
And here’s another Halloween bonus: I earned Vamprimo, Primo’s vampire-themed skin, in one of the dead boxes too! The Halloween skins have been on point, and my collection just keeps growing.
The biggest question still haunts Brawl Stars like a lingering ghost from Halloween: the mysterious “don’t tap” star. When I last wrote, it looked like a dark, Necronomicon-style book wrapped in chains. Now, the mystery has deepened. The book’s look has changed, morphing into a more traditional Brawl Stars-style book hiding behind shattered glass. The ominous chains are gone, and in their place is a single button that reads, “Turn Back.” Looming over it all is the title, “Angels vs. Demons—The End is Near.”
It feels like Brawl Stars is setting up something huge for the Angels and Demons event, tying it all back to that spooky star that’s had everyone curious. Could it be something game-changing? New lore? A surprise challenge? Whatever it is, the mystery is building up, and I’m here for it.
On the leveling front, I’m happy to report that Squeak is now fully upgraded! Next on the list for leveling are Primo, Bull, and Angelo. I’ve unlocked the hypercharges for each of them, so now it’s just a matter of gathering enough gold to max out their skills. Fingers crossed I can stay focused on that goal without getting distracted by the next shiny thing. That’s the genius of Brawl Stars, though—there’s always something new to chase after. Supercell knows exactly how to keep us coming back, which is probably why the game is thriving. According to an article on Pocket Gamer, 2024 might even be the game’s best financial year yet. In the first four months of this year alone, Brawl Stars generated more revenue than it did in all of 2023. That’s some impressive growth!
The Angels and Demons event is just kicking off, and it’s already off to a good start with a new Brawler named Juju available in the shop. Based on the past season, I’m guessing the new event will drop a whole lineup of celestial and infernal skins. If the Halloween event is any indicator, I’d bet we’re in for some good rewards and maybe a few surprises, especially if they tie in with that mysterious star.
Meanwhile, the Brawl Stars Championship 2024 is underway! I just tuned in recently, and although there’s no chance of me winning that exclusive Hypercharge, you can still catch today’s final matches and join the action at event.brawlstars.com. They’re offering rewards for voting on match winners, choosing MVPs, and even just watching the event live. The championship has added a whole new layer to this season of Brawl Stars, and it’s cool to see the game’s community come together for these final matches.
This has been one of my favorite Brawl-O-Ween events so far, filled with surprises, incredible pulls, and that eerie star mystery that’s still dangling. As Brawl-O-Ween draws to a close, I’m ready to dive headfirst into Angels and Demons, waiting to see what awaits on the other side of that shattered glass.
Whether the “Turn Back” button is a warning or an invitation…we’ll find out soon enough.
Happy Dueling!
