Can Darryl Have A Place In Brawl Stars Anymore?

[@Natics_BS]

Had to push back the Ash Video due to syncing issues, which means I have to re-record all the battles. Expect it within the next few days 👍🏿

[@hamzaahmed1704]

Hi natics
I was asleep when you posted this so yea i couldnt post the chester rework idea and you might not see this but ill copy and paste this, so you wont miss out of my triable ideas🙂
Chester attack cap and bell: now chesters 1st star power is now included in his base kit i didnt want to add this tho since i want to be orginal 😅 but you will see why i added this
His supers: i would like to make them all the same range (6 tiles) and make pop rocks throwable again you will see why
His gadgets i really want to change them but i dont really have an idea in mind
His star powers:new star power "SUPRISE" ( i couldnt think of an orginal name)chesters ammo bar now has 4 ammo slot but i dont want to write for too long so ill just show it in number 1->2->3->1->3->4->1->2 etc..
Chester 2nd star power/gear:i dont know were either i turn of them into a starpower or not or turn them ito a gear 😅
New gear (or sp) chesters super is now hidden you cant see if his hc or his super is charged
Now his hypercharge : whenever chester uses his supers he has a chance to telport there (there will be an indicater if he telports there )
Now if you have any questions on why i did everything here just ask about stuff you want to know
And i had other ideas but i seteled on these
Great vid i love your stuff always ❤

Can you make a video about Barley after you finish with Ash? He's my number 1 main and I don't think he'll ever shine again because of all the fast brawlers that were being added

It's a shame that both of his gadgets are terrible.
And tbh, i find darryl pretty fun

[@Natics_BS]

Same I love playing Darryl but he is so bad in this meta I tilted over 100 trophies just getting footage for this video. And I don’t think we will see him in any serious draft any time soon unfortunately.

[@RiseGameOnYT]

The current 2nd gadget is more useful as it allows him to get his valuable super faster

Rotating recoler is awesome in heist

[@AmlacSerdarikoGarbec6931]

Slowing one is so good. He just cant get his super to use his gadget:/

[@NubbitDoesStuff.]

Both gadgets are lackluster, but both have good uses

[@Beeshooter]

Darryl just needs betters gadgets, and a little upgrade to it's super, its currently overshadowed by kit and edgar in terms of auto-charging super

[@ZizixxSamurai]

After some time, Edgar became more manageable and tolerable, but Kit is literally insane. Kit has: Immense damage, a stunning super that grants nigh-invincibility, a leaping super, so dodging is not an option, and a gadget that is literally another character's super. Kit must be nerfed or removed altogether, fighting one is insanely difficult, while playing as one is very easy. And if Kit had a more support oriented kit it wouldn't have been so bad, but the second gadget, for example, is quite lackluster when compared to the Funny Leon Super in Gadget Slot™, which allows to literally flee from anyone without any downsides or simply sneak up on anyone without an effort. Edgar is at least visible, and You know when and where to possibly expect one, but Kit is literally impossible to telegraph, and with all abilities in mind, Kit is literally a free trophy farm.

I really liked your idea of making Darryl’s abilities much more basic for newer players, he could really use it since his attack and super on their own are already very simple. I already enjoy Darryl but this hypothetical version sounds extremely fun!

As a Darryl main I really hope Supercell will rework Darryl just like they did it with Penny, he is a really good tank/assasin but his bad kit stops him from shining the way he deserves to

[@Tejlan_PortakallıKekstra]

Me too

[@Simpstroyer]

It was a shame to see the Ash video was delayed as someone who mains the funny garbage man himself.
But I feel like some people need to understand that Darryl will never quite be a "true tank", Darryl, much like a lot of other tanks is a Frankenstein type of character, Darryl is a Dive character, but he's also a Juggernaut type of character, aka a type of character that can just kill anything by pushing through with their sheer power.
This is what Darryl should be, though in his current state he's rather lackluster.
I just wish supercell would give us more categories to sort brawlers in, because Darryl's only "Tank" trait is his large healthpool, but then again, Sam and Buzz are Also similar to him designwise, all 3 high hp dive characters.
Great work as always Natics! Looking forward to the Ash video 👏

[@Natics_BS]

Yeah I love his design of being a semi tank that is more about constant diving rather than just absorbing damage. But I also wanted to give those players who want him to be a tank and those who want him to be an assassin the ability to build him around that playstyle. Which is why my rework is centered around giving him the classic tank CC and damage absorbing abilities but also just more damage and ammo regeneration. That way every style of Darryl player could enjoy this rework concept. As for the ash video it shouldn’t be too long I just have to collect new gameplay footage and redo some editing.

[@Simpstroyer]

@@Natics_BS it makes sense, I really like your design concepts because you always seem to aim towards making a brawler the most diverse you possibly can, which I think is rather neat

Tbh Removing him would be the worst option that anything else. Just because its shit, doesn't mean you should just yeet him off the existence and cover his existence up.

Honestly Darryl is an balanced brawler, and can definitely be used more, but other brawlers tend to be more op, and people just don’t play Darryl as much. You could say the same about Bo, another brawler that is not used much competitively, but an op brawler if you play it right. Darryl just does not get enough attention.

[@brianfleming706]

Being a Darryl main, his biggest issues have always been god awful gadgets, and relatively ass star powers. The power creep is insane :(

[@BableBeatsQuality]

As a Darryl main for 5 years I must say all he needs is really a damage buff (maybe unload speed buff even), a buff to the recharge he gets from hitting someone with his super, faster roll, faster auto super charge. If not this just complete reworks to his gadget and the ones you created would fit really nicely to his kit. Great video 👍

this is definately a lot stronger than some of your previous reworks but as a darryl main i'm here for it. Maybe some of the numbers could be toned down a teeny tiny bit across the board but i wouldn't change any of the new mechanics (except maybe the amount of ammo the HC steals to 2) i think they're fantastic!

[@thetwirl5842]

[@TheOneAndOnlyGetCrafty333]

Really good! he will finally have a place in the meta again witgh these changes. My idea was that they should buff reload and attack speed even more so that he could counter midrange brawlers more.

[@W1ntumn]

It's so simple but this concept is amazing. Great job

[@torico7022]

Literally just revert Steel Hoops to its 2020 state and he's back on the menu.
I've found him to be the most versatile brawler and after years of not playing Brawl actively, I still manage to counter almost every brawler with him. Sidenote, but the gadget buff was absolutely hilarious. Before, I could easily finish a brawler with just his normal kit and his gadget's only use was super charge. Nowadays, I need to use the gadget half the time for that last bit of damage, even against players that aren't using shield gear. This just shows that Brawl Stars is being affected by a slight burst of powercreep. But while most games that do this are either gacha games that want players to pay more to get the OP stuff, or mobas that make newer characters OP to get money. It's easy to unlock new brawlers though, so I don't see a single reason for Brawl doing it. Sounds like they're shooting themselves in the foot with no real advantage

[@TheNightmare191]

I agree with the mythic gear and hypercharge but i have a second opinion on his star powers and base kit..
for example this is my rework idea:
instead of giving a damage buff to his super, increasing the super charge rate should be better as it will make darryl more of a menace to opponents when he is frequently doing super on them
for the star power i agree with the 2nd one you gave an idea of, but the 1st one i do not,i think this one should be more better:
on super darryl drops tar on his path of rolling,kinda like the old carl gadget…this will increase the danger of his super than to just simply considering it as a knock back thing (the tar deals 200 damage per second foe 3 seconds)
would love to hear your thoughts on it..

[@Natics_BS]

I feel like having him get super more often would create the same problem that Chuck has. Where he spends most of the game just supering with a damage reduction. The thing with Darryl too is his super has a knockback so you are essentially facing a brawler that can keep rolling around with 21k effective health. I think locking back to back supers behind a gadget and great positioning is better to avoid this problem. As for your proposed gadget I don’t think 200 damage is effective enough. Even on the loves HP brawler in the game, tick, that’s not even 5% of his HP. I would buff it to around 700 damage (for a total of 2100 the same as ambers dancing flames gadget).

[@Goinmach8]

These are some really smart changes, I’ll definitely watch more of your vids

[@hyperplay__]

[@jaxonschlutz1279]

yoo I love the idea of the "plundered" hyper charge. Its perfectly encapsulates the fact that darryl is a pirate.
Also I think that a cool rework they could give him would be decreasing his ammo capacity to 2 but buffing the hell out of his damage. (hear me out) I only say this because he wields 2 double barrel shotguns and for each ammo he shoots once with each shot gun. On a realistic standpoint each gun should only be able to hold 2 shots thus giving him 4 shots between both guns, and if he fires twice per ammo that means that he should only get 2 ammo before having to reload. Obviously this would be a nerf so you'd have to give him a huge damage buff to makeup for it and then some. I think if he did 2500 damage at point blank range per shot (5000 per ammo) (at max level) would make him start competing with the other tanks again. or maybe thats too much idk, 10k damage potential per ammo bar is alot but at the same time its already pretty hard to get point blank shots in with daryl anyways.

[@Natics_BS]

I feel like buffing his single shot damage by over double would definitely break the game

[@plov07]

That is a great concept!

[@Naito9874]

I know that this doesn't take anything away from the video, but I wanted to mention, I'm pretty sure another buff he got was changing how the probectiles came out of his shotguns to coming out from the center of his model, which, for me, was a huge change, for hitting projectiles felt way more consistent and you didn't have to do the Darryl Shuffle (not that it was very necessary, but I prefer not having to do it)

[@kratoss__]

Keep up with those videos! I love watching those lol

[@lauri-ug6hz]

I want one thing for Darryl. Simply make it so that anyone that he is dashing forward can't use any movement tools, including dashes, jumps, supers that move away like Piper...
This makes him very strong since he CAN take down all brawlers except for maybe Spike and Shelly and Bull.
I want the enemy Crow, Piper, Brock, Max, Maisie... To go "There is nothing we can do" when they see a wild Darryl dashing towards them.
Also this would make Darryl busted since he is immune to knockback while rolling, which means that it's almost like Mico where it is very stressful to counter him

[@levonessOg.-Trampoposhka]

Im a great Darryl main, doin' him on 30 rank, sadly I dont have box skins because i wasn't playing brawl that times, but I have dumpling Darryl :)

[@Flob414]

I really love the hypercharge idea its very creative and fitting for darryl

[@FakeBoxGuy]

Biggest problem Darryl has for me is his projectile. While he can deal 4800 chances are you will never deal that even if you’re close range. Best way to guarantee that 4800 is to have the enemy right in front of you as straight as possible but that barely happens especially if you role into combat.

[@pizza-xv9lr]

the changes are very good as somebody that grinded darryl until gold 3 and a darryl main i can say he's very fun to play but he has so many counters better options than him and gadgets that suck i hope darryl gets a buff/hypercharge in the near future

[@fyk4n]

As a darryl main for 5 years,i find this video very good.
My hypercharge concept for Darryl was :
Total Destrrrrruction!
*Same hc buffs as tanks*
If darryl hits an opponent with his super,he increases his super range slightly and rolls toward the next enemy.When super ends,darryl makes an area damage and steals 1 ammo for each opponent that was hit.

[@matiux5596]

Every darryl main is in pain until heist with the fast bullets modification appear

[@northseaempire2964]

I think he can have his old star power back, instantly reloads 2 ammo was good

[@itaiharshoshanim-ib6kp]

Hypercharges ideas:
Barley: His super burns bushes and lasts as long as yhe hypercharge lasts.
Brock: Every rockets of his super leave behind a trail of fire just like his regular attack.
More area control.
El Primo: While jumping El Primo leaves behind him a trail of meteors.
Fits his character and also just cool. His current one is also fine, but maybe they should increase the hit area a bit.
Poco: His super also gives a speed buff to him and his teammates and also a reload speed buff.
When I think of fun, I think: ok what is the thing that is missing? When I heal myself or get healed by poco, I want to get back into the action quick, and a speed boost is the way to do that.
Tick: The blast radius of his head get massively buffed.
To keep the simplicity, but still very strong, brawlers that normaly would destroy the head before it can damage them would now get damage. Maybe, if someone gets hit by his head, their screen shakes like with Darryl's ship, and it will be easier for Tick to hit them.
I hate Tick's current hypercharge so much it's so uncreative over the top and doesn't fit his kit. So yeah obviously I prefer my idea here.
Rico: His super range get x2.5, and maybe be able to hit brawlers more than once.
Well... We all know why.
Darryl: I I liked the idea of stealing emmo. Darryl steals the emmo of everyone he hits.
Carl: His super goes on as the hypercharge is active, and while he uses the super he can't be stunned or knock backed.
This would be some much fun but he has to have the knock back protection otherwise it would be too counterable.
Gus: Shield gives the ability to go through walls, or, the ability to shoot through walls.
Ghost vibes. Helps the team. New mechanic. Just fun and cool.
Bo: places a five mine.
More area control and would be actually crazy.
Emz: Super weakens the enemy, steal their emmo and causes them to do less damage as long as they in the super.
I feel like the emmo is a mechanic that is very underutilized, and that's a shame because many cool things can be done with it. And also, anyone inside the super would be helpless.
Stu: His super knocks back enemies.
Oh yeahhhhhhhh
Piper: Gains invisibility for 5-6 seconds along with the super. Being close to people or shooting doesn't reveal her invisibility.
I always imagined that Piper is like a secret agent, or used to be, because she has a gun. That fits her perfectly. Just imagine an invisible sniper. I think there are very cool mechanics in the game that are exclusive to one brawler, and I think it would be very cool to change that.
Pam: Heals faster. If you or your teammates stand in this turret radius with full health, you get a consumable shield. (Like the shield gear.) Goes forever.
Again. Another mechanic that is only used in one place. Also, we've seen from Jessie's hypercharge that how spawnables work is that they are permanent as long as they been place while it's active. So we need to play with that rule and give them a permanent buff, and that's a great one to be permanent. Imagine all the team with big shield.
Bea: Her super goes through walls and enemies. And the slow is a bit longer.
I think Bea's super is less about the damage and more about the slow. With that buff, everyone will be slowed.
Griff: His letters stay for 3 more seconds and breaks walls.
More control. More fun.
Mortis: His super gives reduced healing and marks like Belle. (Or/and: make them ghosts like in graveyard shift, that way Mortis will heal just by doing damage.)
Would make way easier for Mortis to get a team wipe. And all of these are cool effects.
Gene: His super pulls anyone in the area, even if it doesn't hit.
Just gives the ability to pull more than one at a time, and can actually pull someone even if the shot didn't connect with a brawler.
Like his current hypercharge, just a bit more clean, you don't pull random brawlers, you pull who you meant to.
Max: The hypercharge she already has, except: the super slows the hypercharges expire duration. That way the time is like "slowed".
At the time of writing this, Max's hypercharge needs to be nerfed, but it does have a major problem: it mainly effect the teammates and not Max itself, and that's a fundamental error, because every support brawler needs to be able to support itself just as much as he supports others. So I figured, if Max helps teammates charge their supers, why won't she do somewhat the same with her charge rate?
Mr P: His spawner spawns porters regardless if the last porter it spawns has died already.
Again, like with Pam, the buff needs to ne permanent. And an infinite constant flow of porter sounds so much fun.
Sprout: His walls are indestructible and damage anyone who touches them AND expand overtime.
The wall with still go away after a few seconds. With the expansion, the brawlers would actually get to tight spaces where they would get hit by the wall.
Grey: His teleporter restores 1 and a half emmo when teleports. (Maybe: attacks can go through the portal while its active.)
Another one to use the emmo mechanic, and this can actually be very useful. The buff is permanent as long as the portals are there.
Doug: When his super revives himself or teammates, it revives them hypercharged.
This is my favourite one to one of my favourite brawlers. Just pure supremacy. He would actually have the ability to chain hypercharges this way.
Chuck: Leaves a trail of fire behind him, like Carl's old gadget.
This is just obvious. Simple for a common super, useful and fun.
Spike: Every second, his super spawn a cactus like his gadget.
I hate Spike's current hypercharge. A slight change to the idea of Kairos, the make the spawning of cactuses more consistent and fun.
Amber: anyone that touched the hypercharged puddle gets oiled. When oiled, the next time amber hits him, he gets lit up like with her super.
Chester: Along with the super you're using, you use two more random supers. Can't be two of the same one.
Like that bug, but this time you don't know what your getting, that would make this extremely chaotic. And it's three, because... Let's be honest, some of his supers are trash, and would insure a good one.
Gale: His super leaves behind a slippery area like Lou's super.
Another cool mechanic that also fits Gale.
Surge: His super upgrades him two levels at once, and while hypercharged, he can upgrade into a fifth stage, that makes his attacks split no matter if it hits something or not. When the hypercharge is over, if he at the fifth stage, he reverts to the forth stage and heals for 2000.
This time the effect is not permanent because it's too strong, but you still get the buff with your super.
Belle: Her super bounces off brawlers like her main attack, only the effect doesn't disappear when it bounces. Also, people marked can't go invisible in anyway, including bushes.
I guess it won't happen, her hypercharge is fine, but still...
Janet: She burns anyone she goes above and can control her super easier.
Make it easier to prevent enemies from healing, with is a part of Janet's thing, with her super and gadget.
Otis: Shoots four projectiles in a cone shape.
That way he can mute multiple enemies and it's easier for him to use.
Sam: His super stops at half of his range and return back to him.
That way he can spam his super.
Buster: Shields himself from all directions.
That way no one can hurt himmmm
Cordilius: Invisible while in the shadow realm.
Again with the invisible mechanic, and it would be so cool. And not boring like his current one.
Pearl: Super burn enemies like gadget.
Better than what she has and fits her kit, although may be a bit overkill. Oh, well, overkill is a part of her kit.
Mico: Super restarts the hypercharge.
Maybe too strong but would be so cool. If it is too strong it can recharge hypercharge half way. That way he'll be able to recharge it maybe two times top. Anyway, it's better than a useless stun.
Melody: Her notes orbit around her way faster when she uses it.
Pineapple's idea, it's just so fitting.
Angelo: His super moves with him.
It's just fitting.

[@casualboy2239]

Bro chill out😭😭

[@Alexanderfay]

I think that to make Darryl a little bit better in addition to these changes would to give him a bit faster reload speed (like 10% - 15% increase), because when you are at longer distances and can't deal good damage (like only 2-3 shells hit) it feels like you have to wait an eternity before you can shoot again. One more thing would to make his super autocharge like 33% faster, and give him the trait where when he gets hit he would charge his super, as it would allow him to roll up, deal consistent damage, then roll away, avoiding any enemy attacks, which would make him a WAY better brawler than what he is now.

[@mimiche317]

Exactly what i thought

[@romer21]

As a Dareyl main (I was top 5 darryl on my country a while ago) I think your analysis is pretty good! But the rework your proposed is way too much, Darryl would be absolutely broken and I don't enjoy playing broken brawlers :/

[@Natics_BS]

Which parts did you find broken? I tend to lean towards the stronger side on a rework if I’m 50/50 on a change, as a rework that leaves a brawler still in a bad state is useless. But i don’t think this one would be too much as he would still have 3 major weaknesses. One never being able to have great damage and survivability as his gadgets and star powers only provide one. Have to be close up to takedown brawlers meaning his counters always land their shots on him. And the fact that he has to land his roll for most of the changes I made to have any effect.

[@yalta_2007]

I always love to play on Derryl, but with more and more updates he's slowly become worse and worse than other tank's. I love your concepts and I really hope that Derryl will be buffed and gets hyper charge in sooner futer

[@darkmewmewsans5481]

I love these changes and ideas, Darryl is my main tank and I love to play him, one thing I wish they’d do is bring back the 90% damage resistance while rolling like old steel hoops at a base or as a mythic gear

[@Zeydo0]

As a darryl main i won't give up beliving he will not get a hypercharge

[@kushaukakashki]

BRO... YOUR REWORK IS ABSOLUTELY AWESOME

[@user-pe3he4vy6q]

That's actually the best Darryl rework I ever saw, but I have another rework that I imagined myself:
So his problems are survivability after a roll, that's why his 1st sp is so important for him, so I would leave it as it already is, maybe with some buffs like you did; and reloading, because his reload speed is very slow, but for that I would give him an epic reload gear.
Right now I dont remember the new gadgets and the new 2nd sp I gave him, but I gave him the same 2nd sp you gave him as his Mythic gear and made an HC:
- Certified Pirate: his super is now 3 times faster and his range doubles if it bounces off a wall at least once. The stat buffs are fine.
This is to make him super aggressive and to make him reach further enemies WITHOUT giving him a simple range buff, that would make him only be able to approach far enemies and not the closer ones.
Also, I would buff a bit his supercharge.
I didn't get the consistency and utility part, so I would appreciate if someone can explain it to me

[@Natics_BS]

Basically all the tanks are inconsistent with getting their super as they either have to feed the enemy or wait 20-30 seconds for it to auto charge. The best tanks right now, meg and buster, don’t have this problem as Meg has a really long range and buster can get it from his teammates. Utility is just anything to disrupt the enemies or aid your team. Meg has a ton of chip damage from afar and two gadgets to keep her alive or help her teammates. Same with Buster as he has a pull to disrupt enemies, a super to block damage, and star power to negate Crowd Control.

[@user-pe3he4vy6q]

@@Natics_BS Thanks, now I fully understand the problems with tanks. I'm just sad we will not see a tank meta without removing open maps and nerfing antitanks

[@ARandomSkillIssue]

As a Darryl main I can agree we almost don’t exist

[@Dar1_X]

True

[@foolface5425]

We are an endangered species

[@danolantern6030]

I remember being a Darryl main even BEFORE he looked less like a Rico-styled robot and more like those Training Ground automatons. Shame to see my boy getting pummeled like this..

[@IramFloo]

As a Darryl main and bs player I mean you frickin roll 😉 all the issues, but we all know that bs is married whit Adrian and whit the team behind the meta and mechanics, so this ain't gonna happen but I admire you tacking the trouble of saying and making real your opinion, at least someone of the bs team will see it and take inspiration on you

[@shenandoahstrider3836]

Seems a little powerful, but with the power creep he would fit in and become the plundering pirate captain we all know him to be

[@Natics_BS]

Yeah I try to make them balanced but like the brawl team if I’m unsure on a change I tend to lean more to the powerful side rather than the weaker. As brawlers who release weak or get Redone and are still weak often get forgotten.

[@diadok17]

8:04 Actually it was the original mechanic who made him op, after they rework the shield offering a 90% during the super

[@Seeebs]

As a Darryl main I can confirm we are going through hell

[@accuratememin]

Coming back to this game after a few years, I was genuinely kind of horrified at the power creep of the game. I remember when 3360 was the maximum low HP, and Tick was released with even lower HP. Now he has more HP than the old lowest, and Leon's shurikens do almost 1000 damage per shot. Like...holy hell, what happened while I was away??? Bull can't break through walls with Bulldozer, Mortis has (old) Coiled Snake built into him, and Darryl is...what happened to my boy?

[@AlliedWolf1]

I actually really like these ideas. As a Darryl main, I approve of this video

[@alex_whiteman172]

As a Darryl main, i find him pretty playable in quite a few brawl ball, heist, and showdown maps.
Also, I find his second starpower to be better in most situations. It helps a lot with double and triple kills, and while his first starpower lets him survive longer in an encounter, I need the ammo the second one gives me to kill the next person and charge my second/third super in combination with the first gadget.

[@dingosaur00]

bro the love I have to daryl, he has the bones to be such a good assassin tank, he just deals so little dmg unless he's in ur face. and his super dosent even go far or deal enough dmg.

[@TracksuitMinion]

Darryl was my main when I started playing brawl stars for the first time.
Seeing his falloff is just heartbreaking for such a based brawler.

[@crinknor6083]

As a Darryl main you absolutely cooked

[@yaboidarrel9077]

I love this very much, Darryl has really been gutted when it comes to the meta as of recently, and it's been quite hard to just even enjoy playing him. It's so freakin awesome for someone to come up with a well thought out rework for Darryl to get him back to the top!
Massive props and much respect to you sir👍
(P.S. Darryl is my favorite brawler)

[@InsanityKillstreak]

Second gadget would be so op, I think it should be only 20% reduction of damage, because 30% damage reduction with another 30% reduction would almost make him immortal while having a kinda good range for close a brawler with a fast aproach, so it should be only 20% reduction damage on gadget (or less) besides that this looks like a great rework

[@Natics_BS]

The reductions would not stack it would be like hanks shields where they only take the higher number 👍🏿

[@dusty_giraffe2111]

6:00 I disagree, it’s used to finish off enemies. Due to his painfully unreliable main attack, enemies often escape with 1 hp. I find it more useful than tar barrel.
Instead of replacing it, the damage should be buffed further, and reworked to have two separate streams of shots circling around in opposite directions, the unload speed of these shots should also be increased. It would also be great to be able to use it for 6 times instead of 3.

[@user-kq6dn4cq7g]

Hope brawl stars will see this l came back to my old account where l mained Darryl and its a lot of fun playing him but he is very bad when you compare him to other brawlers.
If brawl stars decides to take Darryl buff seriously and make him buzz or edgar style he will be good agan...
We can just hope

[@zacksvji9658]

as a darryl main, i feel a little happy seeing this rework, knowing that darryl matters to some people

[@Caliber30001]

those reworks ideas are brilliant
Darryl sadly doesnt have a good kit rn and can be easily countered, his super charge is mediocre and he stays a lot of the time out of brawl cuz he need to roll onto to have his kit usable.
some general buffs i would give him is either a super charge buff or a reload buff, something slightly better, like Super charge per hit
7.02% to 9% and a Reload from 1.8 secs to 1.5
Darryl is combo of an assasin and a tank, but moves more like the first one, so giving that super charge gadget was a perfect shot. Its incredible how they manage to buff the recoiling gadget to add supercharge and deal more damage but keep it as useless as ever
I think that his mythic gear should be a nerfed version of his reload sp. like 25% reload speed for 3 sec after rolling or even, going form 1,5 to barely 1.1 secs or round it to 1 sec
for his hypercharge, i love it, it is functional and goes well with the character spirit, but, i will like to add that the knockback he does, is the same that Draco does with one of his sp or gadgets (i dun remember xd), so it gives significantly more value to aim well the hypercharge but not an stun so heavy o a mute like otis
man, i really love Darryl, he is my fav since day one i got him and pulled to mythic II only playing with him, really wish he gets some love next balance changes and also a new skin lol
He deserves better

[@Natics_BS]

Having the knock up mechanic rather than knockbacks in the game could improve so many brawlers. As a lot of the tanks with it end up pushing their targets away from them and allowing them to escape. By making it part of Darryl’s hypercharge he would almost always guarantee that most of his shots would land making it way more deadly. I absolutely love that idea as a fellow Darryl enjoyer.

[@adrianbayon]

As a Darryl main, this is one of my new favorite videos

[@joeser6666]

YESSSSS THANK YOU NATICS FOR COVERING MY GOAT

[@RageJani]

I hope they donsomthing with one of my main bois!!! Your ideas are great and i hope they make darryl a good brawler!!

[@YouHaveNoIdeaWhatInStoreForYou]

That's what i was thinking about. All brawlers keep getting new features, Darryl is still staying at his 2019 form. He is just too simple. Hypercharge can fix this, but i think devs will make ot terrible

[@lightblub1329]

I used to be Darryl main but now I can’t use him anywhere. I really hope he gets a buff or get a new gadget

[@getoofedonn9401]

This guy continues to solve supercell's problems

[@kaos-brawlstars918]

Darryl has always been one of my favourite Brawlers and I agree with everything you said. I really wanna get rank 30 darryl but i got to 29.

[@pizu56]

as a darryl main, i find unloading speed a crucial thing for him. he can't deal damage as fast as other assassins and tanks like bull, jacky and leon.
also tar barrel is pretty useful, cuz u don't deal that much damage 2 tiles away, it helps him get 0 tiles away so u can deal much more damage

[@SamuelLitzler]

I really hope the Guy will take revenge on the game for this 2 years where he has been in the shadows, i've been a main of Darryl since day 1 and if i see him come back in the near future, i'll be more than happy

[@PaoEmForma]

Finally someone talking about my boi Darryl

[@un_esquisofrenico]

I feel this rework would even make him worse because with this rework its literally surge 2.0 and shelly because a buff for example in his range in the basic or even reloud could make him meta like what happened with shelly that she got a buff in her speed movement so if darryl recieved a buff like that it would made him better instead of making him a co dependent star power

[@iseeyou1805]

i feel darryl could've been a much better brawler if they'd just buffed his unloading speed instead of the projectile speed that would've make him secure all takedowns at close range. But i think that would benefit darryl mains only so your ideas are better. Great video

[@Meteor013]

2:14 the two best tanks are the ones without Hypercharge 🤔…
Oh yes, Hank and Frank!

[@Natics_BS]

💀

[@SamuraiVertHD]

Yeah as a Darryl main (gold 3 btw no flex :^)) it sucks that he doesn't really have a place in the meta, hopefully his hypercharge makes him better

[@aperson_lol7347]

As a darryl main myself i spent all the time and everything to master darryl and I 100% agree with this rework.

[@vir-ka21]

I hope Supercell makes similar improvements to Darryl, I think it would be a good idea.

[@legendhelp8423]

we need a gadget that extends his next super by 50% it would be both good and fun

[@goofylittlegoober]

If Penny got a rework back then, Darryl needs one now. It's quite fair considering that you have the option to get one of them for free.
