Chapters

• 00:00 - 00:30: Introduction and Video Overview The introduction chapter begins with the host, Bobby, welcoming viewers and expressing his intent to improve their skills in the game 'Brawl Stars'. He mentions that many professional players are often reluctant to share their strategies, but he intends to do so in this video. Bobby encourages viewers to like and subscribe to support his efforts, describing it as a quick and easy way to help him out. He outlines the structure of the video, which includes two sets of tips: general tips and mechanical tips. Initially, the tips will be basic, gradually increasing in complexity and sophistication, encouraging viewers to watch until the end to gain comprehensive insights.
• 00:30 - 01:00: Tip 1: Focus Objective In this chapter, titled 'Tip 1: Focus Objective,' the key takeaway is to always align your choice of Brawler with the mode's requirements in the game. The emphasis is on selecting Brawlers that are objective-oriented rather than just focusing on kill/death ratios. For instance, while Brawlers like Piper and Mandy might be suitable for Bounty or Knockout modes due to their ability to secure kills, they may not be the best choice for modes like Hot Zone or Brawl Ball, where controlling the map or objectives are crucial.
• 01:00 - 02:00: General Mode Tips The chapter titled 'General Mode Tips' emphasizes strategy over individual performance in the game Brawl Ball. Players are advised to select characters that are effective specifically for the mode being played, rather than focusing solely on achieving a high kill/death ratio. For Gem Grab mode, the tip is to prioritize survival and holding gems without dying, as doing so while holding multiple gems can shift the game's control to the opposing team, even if you are initially leading.
• 02:00 - 02:30: Tip 3: Strategically Die in Gem Grab In this chapter titled 'Strategically Die in Gem Grab,' the focus is on making strategic decisions when playing Brawl Ball and Bounty. The advice given includes playing safely by avoiding going too aggressive (aggro), as this can give the advantage to the other team. Keeping control of the ball is crucial to prevent the other team from deciding the pace of the game, whether they choose to push forward or reposition the ball. Furthermore, it's advised not to die for negative trades in Bounty unless playing an aggressive brawler like Mortis. In such cases, it's important not to accumulate too many stars, as this could render the assassin role ineffective. Tip number three highlights strategic decisions that players often overlook, although the specifics of the tip are not fully detailed in the transcript.
• 02:30 - 03:00: Tip 4: Maintain Advantage in Knockout In this chapter, the strategy of intentionally dying when your team has a gem countdown in the game mode 'Gem Grab' is explained. The purpose is to take advantage of the respawn mechanics, where upon dying, you respawn at your team's spawn point, which is likely where the gems are located. Additionally, upon respawning, players are invincible for a short period, allowing them to act as shields for teammates or to safely collect any dropped gems if a teammate dies. This tactic helps maintain control and advantage in pivotal moments of the game.
• 03:00 - 03:30: Tip 5: Stay Alive After Teammate's Death In this chapter, the importance of staying alive in a game when you have a numerical advantage is emphasized. The key advice is to avoid unnecessary risks and maintain your advantage, as this significantly increases your chances of winning. The text suggests that even with a lead, players often make the mistake of attempting to eliminate opponents when it's unnecessary, which can turn a sure win into a potentially equal confrontation.
• 03:30 - 04:00: Tip 6: Effective Damage Strategy The chapter discusses a crucial strategy in Brawl Stars centered around maintaining a numbers advantage in team scenarios, specifically in 3v3 matches. It emphasizes the importance of staying alive when your teammates die to avoid losing map control. Even when at a numerical disadvantage, there's a chance that the opposing team has some damaged players who need to heal. Hence, it's vital not to compound the disadvantage by losing multiple team members simultaneously, leaving only one teammate vulnerable against the enemy.
• 04:00 - 05:00: Tip 7: Use Vision Gear In this chapter, the importance of using vision gear effectively in gameplay is discussed. Players are advised to adjust their strategies based on team dynamics, particularly when a teammate is lost. The chapter emphasizes less aggressive play and staying alive to maintain pressure and control. Additionally, it highlights the strategic decision-making when facing tank characters like Primo, suggesting it's often better not to engage unless a kill is assured, as failing to kill a tank can lead to them regaining health and gaining a tactical advantage.
• 05:00 - 05:30: Tip 8: Play Lanes Properly This chapter discusses the importance of playing lanes properly in a game. A key point is that if you're attacking an enemy, you must ensure you eliminate them; otherwise, you're merely charging their 'super' ability. The chapter highlights that this is particularly challenging against strong opponents like Primo, Bull, or Dragon, but it's crucial when facing characters like Barry, where hitting only one shot can be more harmful than helpful, as it helps charge their super ability with no gain. Additionally, the chapter emphasizes the importance of using Vision gear, noting that many players fail to utilize it effectively.
• 05:30 - 06:00: Tip 9: Switch Lanes for Advantage This chapter emphasizes the importance of using Vision gear while playing Brawlers such as Lola, Jean, Otis, Eve, Janet, Ruffs, Max, Larry, Pearl, and Griff, especially in areas with grass. The Vision gear provides a significant advantage by allowing players to see opponents even when they are hidden in the grass. The competitive strategy involves playing passively and leveraging vision to gain an advantage.
• 06:00 - 06:30: Tip 10: Pinching Strategy Tip 10: Pinching Strategy discusses tactics on how to optimize player positioning in the game. Moving up when you spot your opponent and using Vision gear correctly on certain Brawlers are emphasized. The importance of playing lanes is highlighted, which involves not grouping all players in one area, such as the middle, left, or right lanes, to avoid presenting easy targets for the enemies.
• 06:30 - 07:00: Tip 11: Optimal Healing Strategy **Chapter: Tip 11: Optimal Healing Strategy** In this chapter, the focus is on the importance of positioning and managing lanes effectively during a match to optimize healing and reduce damage. It highlights the need to avoid clustering together with teammates, especially when facing brawlers like Poco, Nita, Buster, and Jesse, who can exploit tight groupings for maximum effect. Instead, it suggests maintaining a spread formation with designated left, middle, and right lanes to minimize the opponent's ability to target multiple team members simultaneously. It also emphasizes the strategic switching of lanes to either engage or disengage from favorable or unfavorable matchups, underlining the necessity of understanding brawler counters to make informed decisions during gameplay.
• 07:00 - 07:30: Tip 12: Learn Drafting In this chapter, the focus is on learning the concept of drafting in games. It explains how certain characters, or 'brawlers,' counter others and the importance of recognizing these matchups. For instance, Bell is effective against mid-range opponents like Nita and Stew because of her range advantage. The strategy of 'switching onto a counter's lane' involves staying in a lane where you have an advantage over your opponent. In contrast, being 'countered' refers to facing an opponent that has a strategic advantage against you, such as Piper's ability to easily eliminate Bell. The chapter emphasizes the need to identify and adapt to these situations during gameplay to improve performance.
• 07:30 - 08:00: Mechanical Tip 1: Maximizing Daryl Gadget The chapter begins with a crucial gameplay strategy: ensuring you face brawlers you counter effectively, which simplifies the game significantly. It then introduces the technique of 'pinching,' a cooperative strategy where you and a teammate target the same opponent from different angles, leaving no escape for them. The chapter hints at another tip related to playing with professional teammates, suggesting it is a personal insight that often frustrates the author.
• 08:00 - 08:30: Mechanical Tip 2: Auto Aim with Angelo The chapter provides a strategy tip for better gameplay. It advises players not to waste time shooting randomly when they are low on health. Instead, players should either continue shooting and accept the low HP state or wait a bit longer to let health regenerate fully before deciding to shoot. This ensures players don't waste time and always take actions that have value.
• 08:30 - 09:30: Mechanical Tip 3: Pre-Shooting with Super In this chapter, the emphasis is placed on the importance of learning how to draft in the game 'Brawl Stars,' especially with an upcoming ranked update. The chapter highlights that mastering the drafting process is crucial to becoming proficient in the game. Additionally, the chapter mentions an upcoming draft guide video, which is highly requested by the audience.
• 09:30 - 10:30: Mechanical Tip 4: Juking vs Straight Line This chapter provides mechanical gameplay tips, focusing on maximizing the use of a specific character gadget in the game. Specifically, it advises players on how to effectively use Daryl's gadget by starting on the top left of the target, moving in a backward 'C' pattern to the bottom left, thus optimizing damage output. Perfecting this maneuver requires practice but can significantly enhance gameplay effectiveness.
• 10:30 - 11:30: Mechanical Tip 5: Hypercharge for Buffs The chapter focuses on a gaming tip for enhancing the player's damage output during gameplay. Emphasizing the correct execution of a specific move can significantly increase damage from 800 to 9,000, equating it to a powerful move by Colette (a character in the game). The tip, although seemingly minor, can greatly buff the character Daryl in the game mode 'Heist.' Additionally, a mention is made of using the auto-aim shot technique with the character Angelo, which had previously garnered attention in another video, highlighting its importance.
• 11:30 - 14:00: Mechanical Tip 6: Understanding Ping and Auto Aim Distance This chapter explains the importance of understanding ping and auto-aim distance in the game Angelo. It highlights a technique to make playing Angelo significantly easier by using auto-aim for short-range shots and aiming manually for longer-range shots. It also describes an advanced tip involving shooting and using the Super ability before the projectile hits, which helps maximize the charge of the Super ability. This technique requires practice and strong mechanical skills, and is used by most professionals in the game.
• 14:00 - 14:30: Conclusion In the conclusion, the speaker highlights strategies in gameplay using specific characters, Colette and Piper. They discuss tactics such as shooting during a super to regain supercharge efficiently with Colette, minimizing the shots needed before the next super. Additionally, they emphasize the importance of maintaining escape readiness with Piper, suggesting that shooters break walls and land shots before jumping to preserve the character's jump ability for critical evasive maneuvers. These strategies help enhance gameplay efficiency and survivability.

• 00:00 - 00:30 yo what is going on guys Bobby here and I am here to make you guys better at brawl star most Pros don't like to share these tips with anybody so if you guys don't mind smashing that like button and also the Subscribe it goes a very very very long way for me it only takes you guys like 2 seconds so we're going to have two different sets of tips for you guys one is just going to be General tips and then the second one is going to be mechanical tips the first ones for each are going to be pretty basic and as we go on it's going to get more and more advanced so make sure you stick around to the end so you get as many highle
• 00:30 - 01:00 tips as possible and so you get all of the knowledge in this video so to get started tip number one is going to be Focus objective now this is obviously very simple but what I mean by this is make sure that you're playing a brawler that is good in whatever mode you're playing when there's an open map even if it's braw ball or Hot Zone or wherever it is I see a lot of Pipers and mandes like those are not objective Brawlers if you're playing Bounty or knockout I mean sure but if you're playing Hot Zone or braw ball like sure you might get a good kill death ratio with those Brawlers but
• 01:00 - 01:30 you're not going to be winning the game and that is not good for you or your teammates so if you're playing brawl Ball even if you don't get a good kill death ratio make sure you're playing a brawler that actually is good in braw ball and same with any other mode this second tip is just going to be General tips for your modes but in gem grab obviously just make sure you never die with the gems if you have three gems and you're winning six nothing then you're in a big lead but if you die then it's 33 and they're going to get control so they're going to be winning as soon as you die so if you have gems just play a
• 01:30 - 02:00 little bit more safe don't go too aggro in braw ball you never want to give the other team the ball even if you think it's not a big deal giving them the ball means they can decide if they want to push it up if they want to Corner it if they want to pass it anywhere just make sure you keep the ball within yourself and obviously never die for a negative trade in Bounty unless you're an aggressive brawler like mortise or something in that case you don't want to have too many stars on your head because then you just become useless if you're an assassin that's just sitting in the back of the map tip number three and this one is actually really important and Nobody Does it if you don't have the
• 02:00 - 02:30 gems when you're playing gem grab and your team has a countdown make sure you die now some of you guys might be thinking like what is this dude talking about like why would you purposely die but when you die you respawn in Your Spawn where your gems probably are going to be and you're invincible so what this does is it allows your teammate to hide behind you and you can just body block any types of shots because you're Invincible or if your teammate dies the other team can't kill you and you can just pick up the gems and be totally fine tip number four and honestly this would seem kind obvious to everybody but
• 02:30 - 03:00 most players don't do this when you have a lead in knockout so let's say it's a 3v2 or a 2V1 just never die it doesn't matter what you do just don't die because once you make it to that end game basically 99% of the time you are going to win the game as long as you have the numbers Advantage I see so many times it being a 2V1 and somebody just tries to go get a kill dies and then it becomes a 1 V one at the end and the dude who was alone ends up winning and that would just never happen if you stayed alive so just make sure you stay
• 03:00 - 03:30 alive if you have the numbers Advantage tip number five never die if one of your teammates die so normally brawl stars is a 3v3 game obviously there's other modes but most of these tips I'm going to be talking about 3v3 and when one of your teammates die that means you lose some map control because there's just two of you now instead of three of you now normally when your teammate dies it does mean he did some damage to the other team's player so even though it's a 3v2 one or two of their Brawlers has to heal up but if two of you die at the same time and you're just leaving one teammate alone I'm I mean then you're
• 03:30 - 04:00 screwed like then you just have zero map control zero damage zero pressure and you're probably going to end up losing the game so just make sure if one of your teammates die you do your very best to play less aggressive and just stay alive number six if you are facing a tank or I guess Barry as well if you are not going to kill them don't shoot them one of my Mains in competitive is primo and if somebody can get me down to 2, HP but I don't die and I heal right back up that's a positive because I'm getting almost half my super from that and I'm
• 04:00 - 04:30 not even hitting a shot and I'm not dying if you're going to charge somebody's super which is giving them value you have to make sure you're killing them now obviously that's a little bit difficult to do when you're facing something like a Primo or bull or dragon or something like that but you can really make sure you're doing this when you're facing a Barry like if you're going to face a Barry and only hit one shot you might as well just not hit that shot because you're just charging his super and actually doing nothing number seven very important use Vision gear guys none of you use Vision gear and I mean lit literally none of
• 04:30 - 05:00 you if you're playing Brawlers like Lola Jean Otis Eve Janet Ruffs sometimes Max Larry Pearl Griff basically any brawler where there's grass and it's very easy to hit even one little projectile make sure you have Vision gear on that brawler because being able to see where somebody is even when they're in the grass is a ginormous Advantage every single person in competitive play plays off of vision gear they stay back they stay passive and soon as you hit one
• 05:00 - 05:30 little tick of a shot and you know where your opponent is that's when you move up obviously it's high level but you guys are trying to become high level so make sure you use Vision gear on the correct Brawlers now coming in at number eight my lucky number and this one is very important and you would be surprised how many people who are like 40,000 trophies or something don't know this but you have to play Lanes there is a left side a middle and a right side it's very important that you don't just like group up and send three Brawlers to the middle or three to the left or three to the right because then you're grouped up you're giving the enemy is way too easy
• 05:30 - 06:00 of a hitting Target to hit or just way too much value if it's a brawler you're facing like Poco or Nita or Buster Jesse there's so many Brawlers that get way too much value if you're really close to your teammates so make sure you have a left lane a middle Lane and a right lane and make sure you are properly playing Lanes guys which brings us to tip number nine which is very similar switch lanes to get on a counter or switch lanes to get off of a counter so you guys know every brawler has counters and then Brawlers that counter them let's take
• 06:00 - 06:30 Bell for example Bell counters mid-ranges really well so if I'm facing Nita Piper and stew I want to make sure that I'm on that Nita Lane 24/7 because there's no way that Nita is going to hit me the bell I have so much more range that's called switching onto a counter's lane but let's say you're laning the piper the piper counters Bell because a piper only has to hit Bell once and then you can just curve the Bell that's called getting countered where you're facing a brawler that counters you and you want to switch off of a counter Lane most games there is a brawler that you
• 06:30 - 07:00 do counter and a brawler that you don't counter and you guys would be so surprised the difference in how easy the game is if you just make sure you're always facing off against a brawler that you have a good matchup against tip number 10 is pinching most of you guys don't know what pinching is but it's basically when you and your teammate both use your shots on the same opponent and there's just nowhere he can go basically all it is is if your teammate is shooting at one angle you just shoot at another angle and your opponent is just screwed there is nothing they can do tip number 11 in this one honestly drives me crazy with my Pro teammates
• 07:00 - 07:30 cuz they do it all the time but don't wait 2 seconds and then just randomly shoot when you're low HP like if you're going to not shoot then don't shoot like just wait the four or five seconds whatever it takes to heal don't wait 2 seconds where it takes like a little bit to regen some HP and then right before you start gaining some health you're just like I'm going to shoot cuz then you're just wasting two seconds doing nothing you're not getting any value either continue shooting and stay at low HP wait a little bit longer before you Regen that health or wait out the full
• 07:30 - 08:00 time get your health back and then continue shooting and then number 12 this is pretty vague but learn draft guys it's so important for you to know how to draft in Brawl Stars when you're pushing ranked there's going to be a new ranked update soon which is going to be so hyped and you guys have to know how to draft for that learning draft is just so important and if you want to become good at all in this game you need to know how to draft I'm going to be making a draft guide which is like the most requested video I've ever gotten in my entire life very soon so make make sure you guys stay tuned for that now we're
• 08:00 - 08:30 going to be moving on to the mechanical tips and I'm just going to be giving you guys a couple tips that I use when I'm playing to maximize value or just make sure I'm playing at the very highest level so the first two are going to be pretty simple number one maximize your Daryl gadet you want to start on the top left of the high safe and then kind of just do like a backward C and make your way down to the bottom left it's pretty hard to get perfect all the time unless you're really really practiced and good at it but you can basically get almost 100% of the damage if you do it
• 08:30 - 09:00 correctly now you guys might think this isn't a big tip but this is the difference between doing 9,000 damage or doing like 800 which is a very significant amount of damage that's almost as much as a Colette super so if you know how to properly do this it's a very big buff to your Daryl in Heist tip number two hold down your autoim shot with Angelo one time I gave this tip in I think it was a tier list video I forgot what it was I just randomly threw in this tip and I got so many comments that were like bro I didn't know about
• 09:00 - 09:30 this and if you don't know about this then you like I don't even know how you've been playing Angelo this entire time like this makes Angelo 100, times easier to play and you should 100% be doing this when you're playing Angelo for my longer range shots I obviously aim them but anything close I 100% just hold down that shot and auto aim tip number three and this one's pretty hard to do so it takes some practice and you do have to be pretty mechanically good at the game but you want to shoot and then Super before the projectile hits to maximize your superch charge so you notice most Pros do this when they super
• 09:30 - 10:00 a high safe with Colette but they like shoot out a shot so that you get your supercharge back while you're supering so instead of being four shots off of your next Colette super you're only three shots off or another example of this is I like to do this when I play Pipers so when I break a wall that I want to break I use a shot before I jump because having a jump with Piper is very important having that escapability is very important so if you can hit that shot before you jump and then make sure you jump before before the shot actually
• 10:00 - 10:30 hits your opponent then you're getting a third of your super and it's a small tip but it goes a long way when you're facing highle players tip number four and this could be my biggest tip for this entire video to be honest but this is to know when to Juke versus when to straight line so there's a lot of brawlers that require auto aim and obviously you want to auto aim with tanks because there's just no tiles or whatever but a lot of the time when you're playing like Nita or stew Penny Sandy like there's a lot of midrange range Brawlers that a lot of people auto
• 10:30 - 11:00 aim with and you have to know what distance you want to walk in a straight line versus when you want to juk so let's just take stew for example usually when somebody is about five tiles away they want to auto aim you because they think they're close enough so when you think your opponent is going to auto aim you just walk in a straight line either left or right because when somebody is auto aiming they're shooting at where you were so if you're walking in a straight line and you understand this distance then you're going to Juke 100 out of 100 shots but let's say you're
• 11:00 - 11:30 laning a bell and it's not in the autoim distance it's a little bit further so it's like eight tiles where it's a little bit too far to auto aim but you obviously still want to Juke that's when you kind of want to like change up your movement a little bit walk a little bit weird go like a little bit left then a little bit right maybe stay still maybe go hard left then a little bit right or hard right then a little bit left like you got to know when to straight line versus when to Juke this is a very important thing to learn and hopefully I explained it well enough for you guys to understand tip number five you can use
• 11:30 - 12:00 your hypercharge for stat Buffs hypercharge gives you speed extra damage and extra not Health but like extra shield which basically means you have more health I see people completely Miss obvious opportunities to like just click a hypercharge button and run a ball into a net or click your hypercharge button to do extra damage to a high safe and that could be the difference between winning or losing a game you don't always have to use it for your super I mean 90% of the time you use it with your super to get your extra super ability but but I mean there are the few
• 12:00 - 12:30 times where you can just click your hypercharge button to get good value without getting your super and it's important to know when to do this and then tip number six which is very similar to tip number four just kind of the other way around is always know your autoim distance so not everyone has the same autoim distance a lot of you guys don't know what this is but there's this thing in the game called ping ping is your connectivity so how well you connect to the server you play on now most of my viewers are from either North America or Europe so I'm just going to explain where the servers are quickly for those reason in North America the
• 12:30 - 13:00 servers are in Virginia Miami Dallas Texas Los Angeles California and Oregon in Europe there's servers in Ireland Germany Italy and Finland so if you live in any of those places that I just named you have very low ping very good connectivity and you can hit auto aim shots from very far away on Brawlers that you probably shouldn't be able to do it on why because you just get your shots out quicker when you click the button the game game reacts to it
• 13:00 - 13:30 quicker than if you were to live far away from those places so let's just say you lived in like India or Australia and there's just no server anywhere near you then brawl star is going to take a lot longer to react to you taking your shot and auto aim is like basically just not even going to work for you so now that you guys understand what Ping is and where the servers are and if you have good or bad connection you need to learn the distances that you can actually hit autoims with now you're not supposed to like be able to measure on a map how many tiles you can actually shoot from
• 13:30 - 14:00 but in your head when you're playing the brawler you're supposed to kind of just feel if you're close enough or far enough so those are going to be my best tips for how to improve very fast in the game right now a lot of Pros usually Gat keep these tips but I'm just going to let it out for everyone to know so everyone's on the same playing field but that's going to be it for me today so again if you guys could smash that like And subscribe button it would go a very long way for me any type of interaction with the channel just goes a very long way but that's going to be it for me today and I'll catch you guys again later peace
