Brawl Stars Balance Changes (June 2025): Buffs &…

We'll explain the latest set of balance changes that have impacted Brawlers and the Brawl Arena mode in Brawl Stars.

It's the middle of June, and the regularly scheduled monthly balance changes have just landed in Brawl Stars. Except, unlike ones we've experienced in the past, this one will be slightly different in its adjustments. Why?

The current 'Crush the Kaiju' season introduced the game's first-ever MOBA game mode known as 'Brawl Arena.' This limited-time 3v3 mode allows players to engage in longer and more tactical gameplay. It's a work-in-progress, and Supercell isn't hiding it.

So, with that in mind, June's balance changes primarily targeted the Brawler progression and mechanics of the Brawl Arena mode. Besides this, a handful of adjustments were implemented to the Brawler roster.

General Balance Changes

Kenji and Lumi were the only two Brawlers who received balance changes this month – and, unfortunately, they're nerfs.
