In this Nulls Brawl update, we will get two new brawlers, Pearl and Chuck. In this article, we will look at all the main innovations of the Nulls Brawl season 20 update. We will deal with the new system of hypercharges and changes in the pumping power of characters. We will also learn about the developers’ plans for further improvement of Nulls Brawl.
The update will be released only after the official BS update. After that, within a week, will update the private server Nulls Brawl.
Pearl
Pearl is the new Chromatic Brawler for this season, completing Sam and Belle’s trio. She’s a cookie-oven robot created by Sam and Belle to be like a daughter to them. If you mess with her parents, Pearl will unleash the fury of a thousand burning cookies on you!
That’s right, her main attack is Hot Cookies. She spreads a series of cookies in medium range, making it easy to hit at least one, even if you’re distant. The damage depends on the heat level inside Pearl’s oven. The heat bar charges up when she’s not attacking, causing maximum damage when it’s full. The heat bar cools down again once Pearl attacks or uses her Super.
For her Super, Pearl quickly explodes, knocking back everything in a short radius around her. This also destroys walls. What’s unique about Pearl is managing her heat bar to maximize damage.
An underwater Skin called Periscope Pearl is coming at the end of the Brawl Pass. Her cookies become fish and she has a goldfish swimming inside her! There’s also a 29 Gem vintage toy oven Skin called Vintage Pearl.
Chuck
October brings a new Brawler, Chuck! Formerly an orchestra conductor, Chuck now conducts trains for the Ghost Station. The eerie noises inspire his music as he travels between stops, occasionally performing for the mysterious Gus.
Chuck’s main attack is a cloud of hot steam from his hat that can hit a target up to three times. His Super is really unique – he can throw train signs on the ground, then dash between them. You’re limited in how many signs you can place, and they can’t connect across walls, but with the right setup you can dash all over!
It takes some strategy to use Chuck effectively, so check Nulls Brawl content creator videos for tips! There’s a 29 Gem Inferno Chuck skin too that makes Chuck look scarier.
Power Level Changes
Power Levels will now increase Brawler Power by 5-10% per level, up from a flat 5% before. This makes progression more meaningful. New visuals and animations when leveling up also help make it more exciting.
This shouldn’t affect end-game meta since all Brawlers upgrade the same. However, percentage-based Star Powers and Gadgets will be slightly weaker at first. The plan is to increase their percentages in future updates to compensate.
Hypercharge
Introducing Hypercharge at Power 11! Instead of adding Power 12, Gear slots unlock at level 8 now. The new progression order is:
- Level 1 – Gadget
- Level 5 – Gear
- Level 7 – Star Power
- Level 9 – Gear
- Level 11 – Hypercharge
Hypercharge supercharges your Brawler for a short time, making them generally stronger with a more powerful Super. To activate it, fill the Hypercharge bar that appears around the new button. Filling the regular Super bar also fills the Hypercharge bar, but more slowly.
Once ready, tap the button! Your Brawler will be set aflame and the Super icon changes. Initial Hypercharge Brawlers are Shelly, Colt, Bull, Spike, Jacky, and Pearl. More will come each update!
Get Shelly’s Hypercharge free in the new Hypercharge Unleashed event! Play random maxed Brawlers and complete the quest to unlock it. Buy the Hypercharge collector’s bundle for more cosmetics. Or wait 2 weeks after release to buy Hypercharges directly.
Starr Force Changes
Starting in October, Hypercharge is available in Starr Drops during special events like Double Starr Drop days and free Shop offers.
Starr Force also reduces the number of active modes to improve matchmaking. Showdown, Brawl Ball, and rotating Knockout and Gem Grab are available. Siege returns rotating with Wipeout. Removed for now are Bounty, Heist, and Hotzone.
Bull gets a small model revamp, too! There’s also a new Rare gear being added.
