The Brawl Stars November (Snowtel) Update Has Arrived!


The Brawl Stars November update – “Snowtel” update – has arrived (pretty quickly this time! The Brawl Talk premiered just 2 days ago). This update brings a new Chromatic Brawler Lou, new skins, Brawl Pass Season 4, Map Maker updates, and balance changes. You can read the full patch notes taken from the Brawl Stars blog below.

New Brawler – Lou

Lou is a jolly snow cone machine who is always cheerful. He’s so overly positive it annoys the heck out of Mr.P.

Main Attack – Fires snow cones that apply Frost. When the target has accumulated enough Frost it will be stunned for 1 second.
Super Ability – Throws a snow cone syrup that creates a slippery surface area on the ground.
Gadget – Lou freezes himself becoming invulnerable and unable to perform any actions for 1 second.
Star Power #1 The Super area applies Frost to enemies.

Map Maker – BETA

he maps you make can now be published so everyone can play!

There are 4 different stages for your maps: Draft → Submitted → Greenlit → Published
In Draft state the player can keep editing the map as much as they want
After the player is happy with the map they need to “Submit” the map for approval and the map creator needs to invite players into a friendly game room. The players in the room will receive a pop-up for map approval at the end of the game. Map needs to get over 50% approval (out of 10 votes) in order to be eligible for publishing it. If the player decides to edit the map after it’s submitted it will return into Draft state and requires new approval through voting in the friendly room.
After the player publishes a map, it goes to a pool of potential maps to be featured each day in the Test Slot. Editing is no longer possible.
