The Starr Road is a reward track that allows you to unlock brawlers in Brawl Stars. It allows you to target brawlers you do not currently own in the game according to rarity by collecting an in-game currency called 'Credits.'

Introduced in the December game update, there are a lot of inner workings that both new and old players need to familiarize themselves with to get the most out of Starr Road.

We've put together a guide going through how the Starr Road works, how you can get brawlers, and where you can get Credits.

How To Unlock Brawlers In The Starr Road

As we mentioned earlier, Starr Road is a reward track you can climb by progressing through 'steps.' Each step has an assigned rarity and a list of brawlers you can choose to unlock.

You can progress through Steps and unlock brawlers by collecting an in-game currency called 'Credits.'

You'll need different amounts of Credits to unlock different types of brawlers depending on their rarities. Each step has a pre-defined brawler rarity you'll need to unlock as your next brawler.

As a new player, you will unlock specific brawlers first, but once you've gathered enough experience with the new system, you'll be able to choose between two to three different brawlers in each step (as shown above).

If the brawler you want isn't one of the options on the step, you'll have to keep progressing through the track until that brawler becomes an available option.

Unlocking Progress Starr Road

You will also be able to purchase any brawler at any given point from the brawler screen with Gems. If you've already started to unlock a brawler and you'd like to speed up the progress, you can purchase the remaining Credits for a lower price with Gems and unlock the brawler instantly.

The Starr Road will be the same layout for all players. But, it will begin to vary depending on the brawlers you decide to collect or whatever progress you have already unlocked before the introduction of Starr Road.

You will always be working towards unlocking a brawler on Starr Road. Once you unlock one, the game will ask you to pick the next brawler you want to unlock at the next step, and so on.

If you change your mind about the brawler you wish to unlock, you can select the 'switch' button to change to one of the other brawler options available on the step and transfer your progress toward them.

When new brawlers are released to Brawl Stars, you can switch to unlock the new brawler for a limited amount of time. Otherwise, it will go to the end of Starr Road.

How To Get Credits In Brawl Stars

You can collect Credits in Brawl Stars in one of six different ways. This includes:

  • Brawl Pass: Unlocking certain reward tiers on the premium Brawl Pass will provide you with Credits
  • Challenges: Completing limited-time challenges in Brawl Stars can reward you with Credits
  • The Trophy Road: Level up your brawlers to earn Trophies that will help you progress through the Trophy Road. Certain Trophy milestones can reward you with Credits.
  • Quests: Like regular and seasonal Quests, there will be occasional Quests that offer Credits as a reward for completing them.
  • Starr Drops: You have a chance to earn Credits by opening one of the three Drops available each day. Starr Drops can be obtained by earning your first, fourth, and eighth match victory of the day.
  • Mastery Track: Credits are awarded to you if you surpass certain Mastery Ranks. The Mastery Track will also reward you with cosmetics, Gold, and other items.

Each path offers a way of obtaining Credits through unique means. However, they are not as complicated as they may look.

Most are passive, which means that you will not need to change your playing style whatsoever. Simply play the game regularly and you will have a solid chance of earning Credits.
