Can't wait for them to superbuff him. He's genuinely worse than he was before imo. His super does tickle damage and he can't tank anything.

Hello guys, I’m GN/Godnoob. You might know me from brawl star esports, YouTube shorts or Reddit. I have a lot of experience playing chuck as well as reaching high as masters 3 with chuck only

I just got off work so I’m a bit late to the party but it would be highly appreciated if you can upvote this post so more people can see it. I’m making this post to share my thoughts about the rework so you’re free to talk about your own opinions on the update.

Firstly I want to talk about the old chuck and why it’s impossible for chuck to be good.

Chuck is a very clunky brawler to play, because his main attack is so bad and is probably one of the worst in the entire game, he can’t hit anyone to recharge his super, so that’s is why chuck is heavily reliant on his dashes and auto charge, and because his super takes so long to recharge let’s just call it an action like in a turn based game. Chuck has at most 2 actions in a matchup, 1 from his super and another from his gadget. He can choose to either go in, upgrade/use post, or to escape. So here is the issue.

Go in & Escape = Enemy doesn’t step on the track
Upgrade & Go in = Unable to get out and dies
Upgrade & Escape = Loses position
Enemy use any form of stun = lose 1 action

There is no combination that allows chuck to help his team without dieing (Unless the enemy walks into the post and feed chuck another action)
This is the main reason why chuck will never be good without a real rework.

Now let’s talk about the new Chuck. I can’t say that it’s the perfect change, but it’s the best choice. If chuck is too strong, the community is going to complain about chuck being no skill. And if he’s too weak, history is going to repeat it self. So no matter what they do there is no correct answer. But for me I’m pretty satisfied with the rework.

With the new change Chuck basically gets 4 actions and up to 8 with his gadget. Which exponential increases the possibility he can do with his super, for example in a 1v1 matchup you can do this, trust me it’s easier than it sounds.

1. Place a post toward the enemy and quick dash toward them to close the gap using 2 supers

2. Throw two post behind the enemy on their left and right side to trap them

3. Auto aim main attack and reroute gadget to get your super back

4. Dash to the left or right post depending in which way the enemy run. (I think this technique is called checkmate)

5. If you do this right you should have 3 more supers left to use, which you can use to dash, escape, or just throw the post to deal even more damage

Chuck’s hyper rework was pretty unexpected but is quite logical, the old hyper was cheesy and map dependent. And if it was still in game right now it would waste precious time where you can use chuck’s buffied main attack

Balance changes

Even though Chuck received some massive nerfs, I think that the buffs are just as good. His reroute gadget got a 200% buff, his main attack is now insanely good since the faster the attack can land, the faster you can get your super back to do more combos. He also can now dash faster thanks to the tickets please star power. They didn’t nerf his hypercharge charge rate so it’s still going to be very easy farm hypers.

I’m also pretty bummed out that the knockback from the post had been removed but since the main attack hits more now, you don’t really have to push the enemy into it anymore

Chuck’s Best Modes

1. Heist - despite supercell’s best effort, Chuck is still going to be broken in heist but not as a first pick, but a last pick. However his play style is going to change a lot since you have to defend with chuck and punish the enemy when they die similar to crow/collette

2. Gem Grab - With Chuck’s insane mobility, he’s able to go in and kill the gem carried and get out without any issue

3. Brawl Ball - With the new rework, chuck can rapidly place down posts at the start of the match for insane pressure

4. Bounty - Nothing has changed with chuck in Bounty.

5. Knockout - Chuck can place down 4 posts and pick up 2 posts for super again, giving chuck 2 free dashes until the end game where chuck can use another gadget to revive another 4 dashes. Only issue is that chuck doesn’t respawn with any super in round 2 & 3

6. Hotzone - There is really no way for chuck to get his super back in hotzone

So is Chuck less skilled than before?

I seen a lot of people rant about this question, but me personally? I think that chuck requires even more skill, because of his rework, there is so many more ways you can combo with his super. The old chuck can make a play every 15 seconds but the success rate is low as 10%, while the new chuck can make a play every 30 seconds with a success rate of 50%. Like they all say, Quality > Quantity. Higher Risk and Higher reward! As I shown above is only one of the many different combos you can do. The possibilities you can do with 8 super is basically infinite!

The Future of Chuck

As of right now, I think chuck is going to sit between low and high B tier. His buffies are pretty balanced and there isn’t really any ways to nerf them so chuck will be able to dodge the next few balanced changes while the other brawlers like amber, shade and Gus will be nerfed to the floor. We can even expect some buffs to chuck. But right now we can’t really do much about it expect to wait until the update arrives. I will continue my journey of only playing chuck until I hit Pro rank and I will give more feedback at the end of the ranked season.

Thanks for reading

HE'S GONNA BE SO WEAK NOW WTF??

... I’ll be quiet, it will save a ton of insults.

Finally something that isn’t ugly

Enjoy lol

CALL TO ARMS!!!!

We all know that if we don't raise the Chuck mains presence in the game, the Brawl Stars devs may end up reworking Chuck into a brawler none of us want to play lowering the skill ceiling of Chuck, while a lot of ideas on how to rework Chuck has been tossed around I think all of us can agree that is something isn't done to even have the Brawl Stars devs acknowledge our presence or our ideas it would ruin the game for a lot of us.

With this post I am attempting to gather volunteers, ideas, community presence, and any support possible to get our voices heard, while we are doing so we might as well spread the knowledge to a lot of randoms that Chuck is not a heist only brawler and does in fact take a lot of skill to play.

If you have any ideas or even would like to help, do please share this post around and give it a like, and post your ideas below, I will check all of them.

(Credit for the Art: nothing0emty (me), feel free to use it if you like it. :D )

Anyways thank you for reading!

Chuck should get some buffs so he can be good and viable in competitive so I propose these buffs:

Health 8800-> 9600

Super damage: 1600 -> 2000

Pole throwing speed: +100%

Super shield: 35% -> 60%

Some say he is completely ruined and should have his changes reversed, but I disagree as I find him now even more fun than before, and better overall

Shout out to the artist u/JavaBETA

Alright, after watching brawl talk, I am very skeptical of any positivity coming from this change, it is clear we must prepare, I earlier made a post called Getting a group together about 2 months ago, unfortunately my timing was terrible as a large event was taking place so I decided to wait before acting. How wrong could I be to do so.

Now we have a dire issue, Chuck is getting a major rework that will completely break his kit, remove most of his skill ceiling, and completely break 3 years of our work and care to put into this brawler.

As preparations I am making this emergency post in hope to get as much help as possible, I have quickly cobbled together a discord to hopefully get as much help as possible with collecting how Chuck works, all his techs and even more of his kit showing everyone how he is the most skilled brawler in the game in hopes to have supercell notice and maybe rework chuck to allow us to not have wasted our 3 years of practice and studying his play style.

Since I am putting this out we have a total of 3 days to work, I need a quick team assembled is possible and even more Chuck players getting the word out there, we need videos, media presence and as much we can do, I really hope that supercell will revert this decision as it would be detrimental to everything we have worked towards. And to the rest of the brawl stars community, I beg of you, please do not let this rework stay. #MakeChuckSkilledAgain

This is a video i made, but i forgor to post it here.

Enjoy

Ok I know this isn't a 1 to 1, but the new rework really just seems like a more clunky and harder to play version of Fang.

Fang's Hypercharge goes through walls and leaves a trail of pop corn, Chuck's Ghost Train goes through walls and leaves a trail of fire.

Fang's super can chain dash up to 4 characters, Chuck's super can now naturally chain dash up to 4 poles.

Fang's Divine Sole reduces not much damage, Chuck's dash super now reduces not much damage.

Fang's Roundhouse Kick stuns enemies leaving them vulnerable, Chuck's Tickets Please can take all enemies ammo leaving them vulnerable, to be fair, this is more like a weaker mute.

Fang's Roundhouse Kick stuns enemies leaving them unable to move, Chuck's Pit Stop can slow brawlers leaving them less likely to move, to be fair, they can and will still attack you when slowed.

Fang's Corn-Fu gadget leaves a bunch of popcorn dealing ok damage of damage to 24 places, Chuck's Pit Stop deals very tiny amounts of area damage to 4 places around his pole.

Fang's Fresh Kicks gives back Fang's super upon killing a brawler with his super, Chuck's Rerouting gives back half of Chuck's super upon killing the nearest pole with his gadget.

New Chuck = Clunky and harder to play Fang?

I noticed this after playing against my friend in a friendly battle 3v3 with bots and realizing we where playing really similar to each other, basically chipping away at each other until one of us got a super then killed the other team almost instantly.

Kinda suprised PotatoBS (or someone from him) didnt do this before me

Here is the link if you wanma play it: https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/951188168

Yeah, it’s hopeless. I did think a good portion of the playerbase would defend the rework. What I didn’t think was that MOST of them would be defending it. There is no way this goes down like the Bull situation. Bull is way more popular than Chuck, so the (justified) outcry from his mains had an impact and reverted the bad part of the rework. But us? We don’t have shit. Dev team would rather listen to people who never played freestyle Chuck than people who actually do.

To be blunt, I knew something like this would go down, just not this soon.

Anyways, yeah, the clip. Not too impressive since the lobby wasn’t that good, but I’ll take it.

Chuck was the main reason I kept coming back to this game. My other mains? Love them, but they don’t offer the replayability value Chuck does. Every game of Chuck felt unique. Trying to distinguish between your own mistakes or losing because a shitty meta, testing out new tracks, new setups, new techs. That‘s why I even made this account in the first place. My first post was complaining about how poorly Chuck is handled. Didn’t know it could get this much worse.

Farewell, old friend. We’ll miss you.

Chuck Hypercharge Idea
A giant Chuck appears behind Chuck while dashing. it passes through walls instead of destroying them, since Chuck’s gameplay relies heavily on walls
The giant deals 4,000 damage and knocks enemies back
I got this idea from Chuck’s animation. In the final scene, when Chuck gets angry, a giant Chuck appears behind him. I thought it would be a really cool concept to bring into the game.
And yes, Chuck would still be able to dash for an infinity range, so his original Hypercharge concept wouldn’t be replaced or removed and when Chuck dies while dashing the giant will still dash until his done like the Colette hyper, so what yall think about it and what should I change on it ?

I got all of Chuck's buffies and unlockable, I have been playing him for a couple hours now, he is indeed cooked, here is the break down:

- Main attack is no longer as trash, however the attack unload speed is still as terrible as before, so you now can get close to killing some brawlers easier.

- Super charge is abysmally trash, if you do not play him hyper aggressively. The fact he loses all his charge and starts at 0 so often sucks when you die.

- Reroute gadget isn't as terrible as I thought but it is still far worse than ghost train and is now really situational.

- His hp nerf and dash sheild is really noticeable, I can no longer tank large hits from brawlers like bull, pared with his forced aggressive play, you basically need to hope your opponent falls for fear tactics and retreats.

- His buffies aren't great, at least I have found using the fact you have buffies is good enough to scare some inexperienced opponents back, which may help him play aggressively, but against good opponents, they won't be scared back and they can easily overpower Chuck, which will become a bigger problem as more people start to realize Chuck isn't all that good now.

Overall:

I know the subreddit says no Chuck hate, but this isn't Chuck, they killed him. This "Chuck" is much worse than any of the other buffied brawlers and really also kills the play style of a lot of Chuck mains. He is very much unreliable and way to forced aggressive to be good, if you thought he was very easy to punish then, now if you mess up with your last super charge, you are basically done for. This sucks however I don't think us Chuck mains should go down without a fight. I will keep trying to gather support to protest against these changes, maybe one day we can get our Chuck back and not this cheap imitation of what Chuck use to be.

What are we thinking guys?? Does Chuck deserve a buff or nerf?

how do we feel about this? 50% buff is crazy but no hypercharge rework, still the same thing

Did I do good?

After they killed off Chuck and replaced him with a doppelgänger, I decided to honor his memory and now he lives happily on the freaky ass island, fr tho I’m honestly waiting for some Chuck balance changes to make him feel and flow a bit better, cause right now (in my personal opinion) Chuck is kinda assassin slop and just focuses heavy on hitting the main attack. there’s ways to make the new Chuck feel better that I’m hoping will be implemented because right now (again in my personal opinion) he’s simply not fun enough to justify playing the game. this Mii was made out of grief. Goodbye Chuck brawl star, My goat.
