Brawl Stars Balance Changes (July 2025): All Buffs &…

We'll dive into all the buffs and nerfs implemented to Brawl Stars during the July patch, including the ones affecting the Angels & Demons event.

A new set of balance changes has made its way to Brawl Stars recently. If you're unfamiliar with how this works, Supercell introduces a series of buffs, nerfs, and reworks to the game once every month.

They ensure that no Brawler or mechanic is too overpowered and improve the power levels of certain Brawlers, so that the playing field is level and fair to all.

In July's balance changes, a general batch of adjustments was implemented, but more importantly, a few Angelic abilities from the Angels & Demons event were nerfed.

Balance Changes for Angels & Demons Event

As mentioned earlier, nerfs were introduced to the Angelic Abilities for the Angels & Demons event. This is because they've been rather overpowered, and this results in less-than-exciting matches. The nerfs include:

Reload speed reduced from 6,500 → 4,000
Angelic Projectiles' damage reduced from 800 → 700
Divine Protection Shield, activated by damage caused, increased from 5 hits → 6 hits
Max number of Angelic Pets summoned by Sam reduced from 6 → 3

Other Fixes

Besides all the dedicated balance changes, a few improvements were added to rectify certain issues. They include:

Bull losing his Super if being defeated while having the 'Stomper' activated
Draco's Spraying the incorrect Hypercharge Spray
Dynamike Pro Skin causing unintended damage with his Hypercharged Super
Jacky causing massive damage with the 'Counter Crush' Star Power equipped in Dodgebrawl
Janet's Damage scaling in Brawl Arena
RT being able to mark the Heist safe
Tank Brawlers with the Tank Trait fully charge their Supers when hit by a ball in Dodgebrawl.

The next batch of balance changes will be introduced to Brawl Stars in August 2025.
