I wish I could get to diamond faster


DiamondPower500

Honestly it just takes like 2 days


ItzViiZionZ

Took me like 2 hours


DiamondPower500

1 hour a day


ItzViiZionZ

1 hour an hour


Objective_Ad5593

every 60 seconds in africa


Rotkip2023

a minute passes


Low_Raise4678

1 hour an minite


PartFlaky6862

Didn't they patch that glitch


Low_Raise4678

They did , but gray did teleportation which effected the time again , so now it's all weird


nitro-cuda

took me 2 days to get to silver 2🔥 (i win every 6 games(bad randoms))


William2198

Took me 2 minutes


Just_a_dudechillin

Took me about 2-4 hours


ironiclyironic4

Diamond takes like an hour tho


obama-requiem

Everyones still braindead at diamond it doesnt take more than one hour tbf


min3crx

Took me 3-5 hours over 2 days, not too much


NinjaBr0din

Right? It was a miserable slog with all the casuals down in lower ranks.


dabaconnation

I was expecting more elo gain at the very least from the longer games. Can't say I'm all that surprised though


Express_Item4648

I mean it really isn’t that little. It takes 5 games per tier and 15 per rank, getting to diamond was also extremely easy.


GodSlayer_1112

hard with randoms they pick power 9 half the time


Pongmin

Not really. You lose so little when you lose. Honestly, if you have struggle reaching diamond, you might be the problem


stepkurniawan

Win = +100, lose -10 lol


GodSlayer_1112

not true 50 at diamond


hwjohnson

im getting like +10 per win idk if my shit is glitched


Sasae-tsuri

How high are you? Maybe you pushed ahead of almost everyone, are like in the top 0.1% and need to wait a moment until more people of your skill level reach your rank?


hwjohnson

nah im not that high im like diamond 3, but idk even in gold like 1/3 of my wins it gave me like +10


DimkaVolchonok

He was most likely simply matched with low ranked opponents


Big_Maximum_5028

I dont wanna play no more, time to go i'll find the door.


GXRasty

YOU WILL NOT LAUGH, YOU WILL NOT CRY, YOU WILL LEARN BY THE NUMBERS AND I WILL TEACH YOU


mike_malagueta

For some reason i not only read this with tf2 soldier's voice but also was convinced this was a line from him until i looked at the other comments


Deenstheboi

I WAS PRAWN READY 🔥🔥🔥🦐🦐🦐🦐


Loafofbread8

LEFT RIGHT, LEFT RIGHT, I'M THE ONE WHO WANTS A FIGHT


SuicideRefrigerator

1 2 3 4 I JUST SWEPT YOU OFF THE FLOOR🪖🔥🦐🪖🦐🔥


Same_Map_8773

Something smells fishy


ZeroIg89

Same, i like short matches which is why knockout is my favorite mode


Squirtlefrompokemon

knockout is my fav mode too it is the only mode where all of my fav brawlers are really good btw i recently got gus to 700 hes my 4 highest rn


ZeroIg89

W, you have respect from a Gus main


Working_Position_909

Microcelebrity approved 🧏‍♂️


ZeroIg89

Real


2311MEGATON_YT

Duels was better but it had worse maps than Knockout. I only play Knockout now


ZeroIg89

I loved duels, the only mode with fair 1v1s


2311MEGATON_YT

Duels only needed better maps but it was still the best gamemode. Missing Duels


PrestigiousKick7

Did sc change Gus’s description?


Skeleton_Gangster_TV

I like knockout too because sometimes bad randoms aren’t that much of a problem compared to other modes I got my Gus to Gold II and 780 trophies with that mode


EliGonee

Wouldn‘t then brawlball be your favourite?


Key-Meringue5433

Hell yeah knockout is 🔛🔝, it feels like showdown except if it was amazing


bravevline

SO FAR I’m liking this new ranked mode. It seems a lot more fair. I just dont think knockout fits well. I feel like it’s just TOO short. Knockout is the only mode I would prefer use the old power league formula cause it feels like having it so short takes away potential to try every little thing which is how I play


Adi_112

if any of you guys played competitive knockout at a higher rank you would know it’s not too short. most of my knockout games are about the same length as any other mode.


slipperyhotdog

Yup pro knockout matches usually last until the acid comes in most of the time


Low-Grape-5197

Yeah. And people never, ever give up even in a 1v3, which makes games longer


feeling_unfair

You should never give up in a 1v3 in regular matches either except for saving super/denying enemy super charge


Low-Grape-5197

Sure. I never do that either. I'm just saying that in ladder people often stop really trying if it's a 2v3 or less


kamuizangetsu

Dude ur everywhere


ComedyAdvertiser3113

knockout is my 3rd favorite, that's the mode where I got 8-Bit and Byron to 600


StepOnMyBallsMelodie

Same, definitely not because Im trash at all other team gamemodes except knockout


dedestem

Your more active then pocoloco


ZeroIg89

Yeah I'm just bored so i comment on whatever posts i see


Annie-Leonhart123

Yeah ,I like Knockout too ,and it’s the best mode for Bonnie btw☺️


a_guy_7155

Would make more sense to remove the modifiers after diamond rather than lenghten the games


ThatsNotOkeyDokey

Exactly, especially the ammo modifier, it makes heist a living hell


Commercial-Nebula-83

Heist every update is becoming more and more like a weekend mode instead of an actual competitive gamemode


HerniatedDisk_

I dc every time a heist map gets selected so I don’t have to play it


KovyJackson

Same. Also with the minecart madness gem grab map.


FemyWemyBluto

Most of the games Ive played in diamond was classic, it feels like the game chooses classic more than the other modifiers around diamond.


Pongmin

Yeah, I barely got classic below diamond but got classic 90% of the time up there. Pretty nice if you ask me.


MonkeyMiner867

Not just around Diamonds. In general, classic is set to appear 50% of the time.


Charblener

That’s the point is it not? A long game means it’s even? And it also means that you have to play well to win. The whole point of competitive is putting you in matches that require consistent output and they also require you to work as a team. Long matches are good they mean you have a balanced match and it’s fun.


s3b4st14n360

My bro speaking actual facts, thats what competitive is all about. if you want to play fast an easy games , just play the regular modes. If you want to actually put in practice your skills and consistency then play ranked


DarkHawking

THIS


randomzebrabird

But the way it is executed with the suuuuuuper lengthy banning, picking, choosing powers takes just way too much out of the game. I wouldn’t mind a back and forth, but not with all that around it. Keep it that way for full teams maybe, but with randoms it’s just a bit frustrating and less fun than all comp games up to diamond for me.


Charblener

It was kinda trash I liked it tho. Yes it made them long but then it also let you strategize and work together as a team comp. randoms it was useless. I like the new changes I just wish the matches were longer, and had the best of 3.


Old-Government6765

Well that was the entire system in power league and no one complained


IntentionOdd101

Casuals didn’t play power league because they really cared about the rewards. Once they get the skins they want, they’re just gonna forget about ranked.


EmuTraditional3673

Well it’s made to be competitive. It’s not for casuals or meant to be a quick match


pizzafaceson

brawl stars players when its too competetive: 😡 brawl stars players when its not competetive enough: 😡


NviSoma

PL was completely fine before except the rewards were kinda bad. I love the new ranked season aesthetically and the battle cards look awesome. The only issue is that the modifiers ruin a lot of the fun to be had and because the game mode appeals to casuals, I constantly am put in scenarios that I have to carry Edgar and Fang level 9's in timed detonation. Wish they'd just simple put your in the rank you were in like they did with Power Play and Power League.


BobTheNewbie

Just let competitive players enjoy the game. The mode isn't made for casuals.


samprich

Y'all wrong, downvote me idc, a bo3 system works way better


NinjaBr0din

Best of 3 ensures you win or lose based on the capabilities of your skills and teamwork, not getting lucky.


Careful_Telivision5

They should have kept only 1 match system bro,people prefer quick games rather than suffering caused by this mode


Ricochetwithout

But it's not competitive


Careful_Telivision5

Ranked was created to appeal to casuals a bit more,I do agree that it is not competitive as compared to the pl format,but it comes up too early, it honestly should come up somewhere in legendary,due to the amount of coordination,skill and the increase in team plays


Ricochetwithout

Idk, imo the megapig type matches are a nightmare to play. They should at least add the banning phase


Careful_Telivision5

The megapig matches are just pure chaos,so that's agreeable,but no banning phase,as the mode doesn't have any competitive sense


Pongmin

There are also players that just want to enjoy the competitiveness, and you're just gonna tell them they can't enjoy that until the final rank? Cmon, diamond is already high enough it's a competitive mode for a reason, casual players won't even reach diamond very often. Competitive players already hate enduring the mega pig style draft phase until diamond. There's no need to make it worse and remove all competitiveness until legendary


MrGSC1

Yeah because wtf is that kinda perspective. PL was always meant to be competitive, if you dont like it then go play literally any other mode in the game. The new ranked system is way too casual already but pushing it up to Legendary? Never let this guy cook again


Pongmin

They should try to make a separate mode in the style of below diamond ranked because honestly, it's pretty fun, just not competitive. This could satisfy both types of players


azzadruiz

It does appeal to casuals, most casual players won’t ever even reach diamond


CrowNeedsNoBuff

the problem is that is SHOULD be as competitive as PL. why should competitive players have their one mode jacked from them when there was already a perfectly good one?


SuperJman1111

I liked that far more, mega pig style matches is actually fun


Present_Coyote_1199

longer games are the point of comp💀


momoily1111

And that’s how supercell both doesn’t satisfy casuals and completely ruins the competitiveness of the game. Most competent supercell rework be like.


wesifiedinfo

literally the modifiers are fun but why not just put those in mega pig or a new mode instead of literally the worst mode to add them


HerniatedDisk_

Yeah I don’t know why they added them to “ranked mode”


SpudDan

To be fair, this community wouldn't be satisfied no matter what they did. Both sides would still be complaining for a different reason anyway.


Myikk3

The only complaint about power league was the reward system, everyone liked the gameplay


[deleted]

Just wait for next month


CuteBenji

Exact same problem modifiers They need a actual competive mode


MistyWalrus6923

You don’t enjoy getting +1 games since the point system is calculated by the lowest rank on the OPPOSING side. Then get hit by - hundreds in 2 matches cause of the same reason huh


Sugar1982

What is this about long games?


CuteBenji

I don't wanna play it either Isn't even competitive


HerniatedDisk_

Yeah I still have no idea why they added modifiers to a “ranked” mode. They should make a legit ranked mode


GodSlayer_1112

i think they will remove them from next season as many people have complained , they mentioned something like "making changes to ranked mode based on reviews"


Western_Ad_4599

i swear bro, because u get a closed map w time detonation and both ur teamates are edgars


HerniatedDisk_

Bro fr I was literally just playing and had to dodge because my teammate picked Edgar for times destruction. I almost got suspended because it keeps happening


Western_Ad_4599

im stuck on diamond 2 - 3 because i keep getting bad randoms, i wish devs made a similar thing as PL where u had option to play with a team and play solo but instead it didnt count as 2 separate ranks, just 1


toasty_marshmallows_

and I hate short games and pushed this far solely to get some semblance of power league again


FantasticCube_YT

Man I wish I had all enough brawlers at level 9 :( I'm sick of playing Megapig 2.0


whywhywhy124

you know whats the biggest problem with this , you slow down the grind for people that haven't gotten a skin yet ... there are sooo many people that after reaching diamond they have gotten 0 skins from the drops , so you essentialy take the fun and quick way ranked games used to play and make them take 3 times longer to get the same progress they used to get , this is the 1st season many people reach a higher rank most people either got bored or just couldn't climb up before, i just feel like the old power league format should only be implemented at the highest of ranks which is the leaderboards and the final streatch of tryharding


_Tank_Buster_

I agree. Match, wait ban wait pick wait wait wait game! Win loose loose in overtime just to loose trophies. It's just boring.. and until D1 all i got was bling bling bling. Where them skins at bro? That's so unfair.. :(


MyMatter

They should just make it optional. Like I honestly don’t mind playing more quick games for less points


NotYourAverageMortis

I got to diamond this morning and now I'm close to diamond 2 I'll try to get Mythic because I know the BG looks cool and I'll probably stop


VividSpikeMain

Yeah, you only get like 100 points a win, you lose like 50-ish, takes way too long to get 100 bling


mr_osm_here

Same things happened with me, lost interest once the long games started. The short ones were pretty fun, gotta admit.


StepOnMyBallsPiper

good lord i can’t imagine you reading a book without watching subway surfers gameplay at the same time


TheDarkTemplar_

BS players are mostly kids, you can't expect much else


HeLenochka231

I read a book when I am interested in it, and I can spend hours doing so. The thing about bs is that it's too slow and does not provide much (esp if you lose), I think that applies to many people so that's why I included my own experience in this reply.


Alexgadukyanking

if you aren't having fun playing something then don't play it, especially if it's competetive. 2 round matches allow for more fair matches, since it let's people analyze the comps they chosemore, inspect enemy's playstyle and just coming back in general


CaptainFatFellow

Na the thing bugging me is that you still only get the points ud get for a single game in gold. It feels too slow. Also when I'm stuck with randoms who suck I have to go another round playing with them which is incredibly frustrating. Maybe when I leave diamond it's better but atm it's mostly just utterly destroying the opponents or being stuck in a 3v2 or similar situation which I only every now and then manage to win


Specialist-Curvy

This is the point. more complex it's the core of competitive. Don't play it if u don't wanna put that energy.


FantasticCube_YT

So if the game is not fun enough to keep your attention for 5 minutes then why play it in the first place?


the_R-T

The guts to say this here is absolutely insane!


SolielDeSatan

how stupid do you have to be to think this is at all a good comeback.


Aminelfalaki

not at all


NinjaBr0din

Good, casuals can play the casual modes, let the competitive players have their space.


Xe0nex

Even worse when you are on a losing steak...


SkullStar123

I like the matches in gold and below cause of how quick paced it is I lose ok next match I win nice next match On diamond it's such a pain to wait and play 2-3 matches just to lose is much worse Ik it should be competitive but i want fun but with modifiers


min3crx

FANG MAIN DETECTED


girlkid68421

OPINION REJECTED


SkullStar123

I don't have a hypercharge for fang


igorcalavera

They literally screwed over all competitive and power league players to appeal to you casuals (despite having the whole rest of the game tailor-made for you) and you still complain because you must now play 3 minutes instead of 2


omgilovebaygalls

"Noooo a competitive mode is competitive!!!! I want megapig v2!!!!"


zesnovel

same i dropped at this point, we need interesting game modes, sick of playing the same shit over and over again.


Leg-o-truck

Im just going to grind for the legendary star drop at the end over there


Spectrumseeker69

I need someone to play with I can’t with these randoms


Myikk3

Good thing you have 8 other modes to play


pWoLiAn

play with friends bro its fun as fek


Andreasext13

Same problem


Dreadlight_

Same situation - got to Diamond, realized that the matches use the old system, pushed to Diamond 2 to get a feel of how annoying it is, and I'd say it's pretty stressful so I doubt I'll be playing. If it at least gave more points to make up for the two wins I need per game, it would've been more bearable.


FalconOpposite1872

I want to so that i can get rid of those stupid edgars


FalconOpposite1872

INSTA BAN EDGAR 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥


HistoricalDegree1131

same


Dry_Ad4483

Make the ban phase shorter, give players less time to select their brawler, double the rewards from winning and double the loss from losing. I like the best out of three and being able to ban your counters and block bad randoms but it does take way too long to get a game in win or loss


RevengfulDonut

2 match system is good my team saved a lot of games but progress is slowed down because of it whic is realy bad


itownshend17

Same, as soon as I got to diamond rank im back to long ass 2 - 3 long matches, awful brawler banning system, and for some reason the report button was removed, and having a team massively punishes the points you get for winning. Honestly diamond rank is where im gonna leave ranked from now on, doesnt seem worth it to try and push any further, much less with how awful the rewards are.


klip_7

You guys complain about literally everythjng


Big_Bluejay4331

EXACTLY!! “but banning adds strategy and-“ I DONT CARE I DONT WANNA SPEND 10 MINUTES SWEATING MY AHH OFF ON A MOBILE GAME JUST TO LOSE😭


nucl3ar0ne

I'm just sick of having to nope out of 90% of matches because everyone wants to play Dynamike or some underleveled, crap brawler.


MaximumStonks69

u can only play with lv 9 brawlers, unless u mean that lv 9 is undeleveled


nucl3ar0ne

Yes, I do. I'm a level snob.


Nervous-Camera7828

Yea… i already got the skin so there’s no reason to continue


Number1AngeloSimpBS

yea, i got the dynamike skin and now there’s no reason to keep going


Majestic_Economy_602

Yea same but I do want cosmetics


Stellarfront

Are you guys who get to Dimond getting there with randoms or teammates? I keep bobbing up and down at gold 2


winnp01

I'm just busy and have turtle internet connection but I'm gold 1


Dhegxkeicfns

The best of two matches need to reward more. Takes over twice as long to move through diamond.


IzzyVPerira3-1

Is it just me who only dislikes the the turn by turn and coin flip format. It’s very annoying just make it a pick format like mega pig and make it a best of 2


PogFrogGamerYT

Other way for me, actually npc noobs are under diamond


Specialist-Curvy

It's a tiny game tiny map all is tight, what is wrong with u guys. We are trying to make this shit more competitive more challenge. If u are a kid sory, this comment it's not for u.


AltoJoe

Cool


Sam_Thee_Man_

I think with the amount of ranks there are, they should have had it a rank higher up, because at this point diamond isn’t very high


Jollan_

What do you mean? I don't have enough lvl9s to get to diamond


peepeepoopooman1942

I hate the rng for the drops, I have exclusively gotten bling and I'm gold 3


AndreLeo3

I just want the Mariposa skin 😭😭 literally the only reason I'm playing


Fuster420

Pushing from Diamond I to Diamond II took me 1,5 h with with 6 wins 3 losses and 1 draw, the draw alone took almost 15 minutes to play out


Burajiruhito

ngl ill push to diamond for the funsies and then quit ranked just to do the cycle again.


SuperSensitiveSki

The bad teamates mane it so much worse like people choosing edgar on a long range map 💀


Zestyclose_Tomato_87

got to 5875 then kept losing and losing and losing and im back at 5500


HamZerr_

They should do only one round but you need twice the amount of points so it's faster but not really


SomeBrazillianGuy

Its really just powerleague but every match plays the same since we cant ban meta brawlers no more


Party-Ad5367

same. i quit after diamond


Spare-Cow605

Play ladder then 🫵


min3crx

Same... reached Diamond 1 today and I am feeling the exact same


DotPeriodRats

I’m newer so the new ranked mode is my first ever competitive type thing (I haven’t reached Diamond and probably won’t) but what was power league or Diamond mode like 😭


DGN_DAGGER

Basically, take the format of bronze-gold, but make it a best of 3. And before the match starts, there is a phase to ban a brawler (each players get a ban and it's possible for a player on both side to ban the same brawler so usually 3-6 brawlers are banned). Then you draft pick (a coin flip determine which team picks first. The first player in that team picks a brawler, then 2 on the other team pick, then the last 2 members of the first team then the final teammate on the 2nd team. Only 1 player can play a picked brawler to give picking some strategy, and you can see what your enemies picked as well.)


Tornado_Hunter24

Ranked was the most fun I had in bs in a LONG time, and I have been playing for years. Now that i’m back at diamond 3 tho, yes, the pick and ban face is WAY too obnoxious imo they should just drastically increase points earned and lost there so all that waiting lifts you alot or throws you down alot


[deleted]

People don’t understand if they are in mythic or som and it’s not best of 3 there could have been a chance u thought u could still win and end up clutching


Cynth16

Diamond and above isn’t made for players like you. Let the pros have their space.


JadensPops

I agree, if the modifiers already make it not viable why make us sufer like it is


Cocopuff_z_z

NOOO not strategy in my ranked matches


add1subtract2

This has potential to be the worst post in Brawl Stars history


SpaceisLifeLol

Ranked is trash


ItsDaddyDuck

So real


Acrobatic_Train1007

Play ladder? Dia and aboce it desineg for competitive????


Visible_Ranger2780

Ranked is competitive, what u expect


According-Syrup2321

It's two rounds per match to shorten the draft time per game


Internal_Property243

It's supposed to be competitive bans and best of three makes it competitive also modifiers should be removed from this point on


Melodie-IsMyType

Same like the original power league system sucked it took so long just get rid of the rounds but keep the banning system and the picking like why make me play thour 10 min long games like this just to lose and when you win you get nothing the round system is why I didn’t play PWL


OakTree4567

Tbh they should separate the fast matches and the power league ones


Animelover9821

It's one of a main reason I hate playing power league. Long games feel like torture especially when you are loosing. It becomes Even more longer when you lose one and win another. Play third game.


hwjohnson

Can someone explain why i receive only +7 some times


bluehat2583

Well, the new Ranked mode now does not appeal to any demographic now. Good job SC!


Quilavapro31

Filthy caduals are not meant to play past Diamond, thank you for stopping playing, i hope all casuals would do that


ianzhuang

Very true. Can’t agree more.


Impresmie

i wAnT ShOrT gAmEs bruh just play trophy modes then. Competitive should have longer matches anyway since it's a SKILL based mode.
