The problem with boxes is the fact that the number of brawler they added is too big getting like 20 brawlers with boxes was hard in the beggining but now with 76 +(angelo and melodie) is just imposible without spending like 4 years
they could make it that with the higher amount of rewards of set rarity there's a higher chance of getting that rarity
yo wsup brudda {
But now we have starr road so it should be way easier to unlock them and maybe they could make it that apart from coins and power points you can also get credits from boxes

I really miss brawl boxes, the exciting flashing red number at the bottom right is so nostalgic😢
And the you get the worst gadget...
Yeah bro seeing 6 or maybe even 7 8 I had one time 9 items thats so exiting
The boxes were so happy to opend
Yeah true i loved getting excited about a gadget id never use
Yall’s gambling addiction is crazy, like I understand the nostalgia but bringing back an rng element to progression is stupid. It took me 2-3 years to get my account maxed until gears got released and I quit cause there was so much rng but the new progression system actually awards playing the game
that person who played 3 years and got one legendery is me
Huh i got 3 legendaries
bro i never got anlegendaire@@Cheeseisbetter228
Same bro I started in 2019 and literally till the boxes were removed, I only got sandy..
@@xRandom_Bozo same i got sandy on on the day he came out and i started playing on global realese
Same but I got 0 😭😭
Man seeing a 6 on a mega box and freaking out was the stuff
And getting the bad gadget for eve lol :)
@@supermakerraptorgamersgame285 I remember when it was a guaranteed brawler because I didn't have any power 9 brawlers and gadgets weren't a thing... Good times
Fr@@shrekiscool4743
Finally someone saying the truth and not just saying "we want box back because of nostalgia"
Yeah, people say that boxes were better, and you can't unlock legendary now, but now I get legendary brawlers quicker than with boxes
Brawl stars reviews when they had boxes: 1 star "i want Leon i got 40k trophies and can't get good brawlers" Brawl stars reviews without boxes: 1 star "bring boxes back i want luck based gameplay back"
Yeah... People love complaning
Boxes are trash i had only 1 legendary brawler while my friends had 3 or more, now i have all brawlers (expect charlie and angelo) ALSO, my friends where going crazy with that "CaN i OpEn OnE mEgA bOx?" while i was trying to save it for new brawlers and when i oppened 11 Mega Boxes that took me 1 month to get guess what? 5,5,5,5,5,5,5,5,5,5,5 and 5 also my friend oppening 1 Mega Box: OmG i GoT 8 iTeMs In MeGa BoX!!!! -10000000000000000000/10 Boxes +1000000000000000000/10 Star Drops and Credits
@@dimitrispolizopoulos i understand you but its not as fun as it used to be to get new brawler because before it was a surprise and its rare but now its guaranteed so it removes all fun from getting new brawlers
@@DoubleKoitell me you have a gambling addiction without telling me you have a gambling addiction
@@Enterobiasis i do you could have just asked but its just in games most of games are gamble
I hope they bring them back and somehow make them work with credis and starr drops.
good joke
Welp, that's what china did...
Yea
@@rafaafkar-ry1fp bruh boxes are bad
@@Ruben99677nah it's that you're just unlucky
Nubbz’s first sentence was me
I think that the ideal would be to keep the starr road but add boxes back instead of starr drops
They should bring them back, keep credits, and keep everything they have now and instead of getting power points you get credits
Boxes had that hyped-up feeling, but the progression you get from the new system is much better Not to mention that Legendary Starr Drops gives me more of an adrenaline rush than boxes, so...
Not really Getting 1k credit is not good
@@rubenlohata5263 if you have all of the brawlers, yeah, but the credits can come in clutch sooner or later
How? New system slowed down progression a lot
@@CherrryVoDKa not really, they do special events frequently, which is better than nothing Also, they can buff it easily lol
@@holodreams_ nah once you finish brawl pass and get past 10000 trpphies getting credits is too hard
Yes, boxes
no boxes are worse
@@Ruben99677 you are
@@golt8588 why just Because im right Credits and star drops togheter are better than boxes i just said my opinion stop being mad kid you raged so much you think im gonna be offended by what you said lol
@@golt8588 yo bro who deleted our comments what the fk
I remembered getting 3 brawlers from one mega box I miss those days
I honestly think they should bring back brawl boxes with the cost of credits just like in CN server. This would stop conflict from the people who want to bring it back and the one who wants to keep the credit system.
Trophy road needs to get an overhaul. As a free to play in the 20000s the rewards are too small. You don't get enough of anything as a f2p
Yup I don't like boxes but the only bad thing happened in the remove boxes update was that when you join and you are new to brawl stars, you get tons of rewards in trophy road and if you were only 10k+ trophies you would get only max 80 credits per reward and a few coins now they put starr drops but that isn't enough you get a legendary starr drop every 10k after 10k trophies and a mythic starr drop after every 5k
Before they removed boxes I had every brawler and almost every star power and I only bought a few battle passes. I got a surprising amount of stuff from the boxes even the basic ones
I think they should add boxes back, but there was a 25% chance to get credits. And very very low chance of brawlers
They should add them back just for challanges
Explain in more detail? I'm curious
I feel like it would be a good idea to add credits to boxes, and maybe some skins in mega boxes
The thing with starr drops is that they were added for some rng so players could get a feeling like getting a 6+ items remaining on a mega box. And boxes were removed because they basically were gambling, and now, you can very often get lots of starr drops for gems, essentially putting us back in square 1 that the removal of boxes were supposed to solve
Old day getting 6 was making me so happy
The joy of getting a blinking 7
You can still play boxes with a boxes simulator available in the play store 💀🤣
yeah for the gamblung addiction kids
@@Ruben99677 boxes are free in that game
And Nulls Brawl..
@@ChocoYumYum09 how do you even download nulls stars? I always see people talking about it
@@tristan12424android and happymod apk
As a player who spent three years and gotten zero legendaries, I see brawl boxes as an absolute Loss
I don’t miss boxes but I do think the Starr road needs a rework, basically….. let me Choose what brawler I want to unlock, don’t force me to unlock 2 legendaries before I can unlock Byron, you should be able to choose your desired brawler not wait 10 months to reach the back of the Starr road
Nah
It’s not as exciting as when you finally achieve the brawler you’ve wanted for so long
as a f2p it's not only about progression, I want fun
As a f2p i never got a legendary in the old system, so fun would be progression
@@qkzq that was what made it good it gave you a reason to be good in the game it made you use all the brawlers you had
@@Naldinho456Man I love it when I don't get any choice in what brawlers OR what gadgets and star powers I use. It's so much fun and I have a wonderful time never getting a star power for a brawler I want and instead Belle's grounded star power, so much fun
@@CarbonFang25 yh inspires you to do better and not be spoiled as f2p boxes made brawl stars ⭐ drops are a cheap knockoff that will never live up to the hype
Getting a mythic or legenedary starr drop is the equivalent of getting a "6 items remaining" you have the fun, you are just blinded by nostalgia
Yes please boxes back 😢 I miss them so much
BRING BRAWL BOXES BACK I MISS EM
Keep the credit system, and just switch the “starr drops” back to brawl boxes, where they give you coins and power points and have chances to give you bling, gems, star powers, gadgets, hyper charges, skins, and brawlers, with megaboxes having a higher chance of giving you jackpots (legendary), big boxes being a middle ground (epic/mythic), and regulars being low odds (super rare and rare)
bring it back
No
@@erikcat2.036how do u like stardrops more better than boxes your weird
@@Standwithpalestine757 1st off: I dont like starr drops however they are better progression than boxes were and since we have credits to unlock brawlers starr drops arent too bad. 2nd off: you're* 3rd off: make an actual argument instead off trying to say you're weird and then spelling you're wrong.
@@erikcat2.036 so it's so useful to get skins and your name is Erik bro
@@Standwithpalestine757 1) in total starr drips still provide more progression even if you get alot of skins 2) your username is palestinesolos "bro"
"It probably will anyway" Me who got a Mythic: *What the fu-*
My idea in 2022 Keep boxes, but add the Starr road as an addition to the progression system.
I like too when they removed boxes but maybe they should do so you can get multiple rewards out of one star drop
BOXES + STAR DROPS + POINTS TO BRAWLERS IS MASTERPIECE
i think they should bring back the boxes but also keep the starr road and make it so that you if you unlock the current brawler you just get the remaining credits. so essentialy if they just added the starr road and kept the boxes it would be a lot more fun.
I hate it when my favorite game isn’t revolved around gambling for new characters 😡
Play Brawl Stars now then
@@edmondtorok3378 that’s the joke, people complain about not ever being able to get the feeling you get when you see the flashing red button when you open a mega box, which is 100% a sign they’re addicted to gambling
@@lag_man8229 yh i see that but new system is the same you wait for rare SD to be a legendary at the end of the day its a game people are not going to deviate to gambling to satisfy their hunger
@@Naldinho456 but at the same time, it’s not the main progression system. Me personally, it took me almost 3-4 years to finally get my first brawler maxed, which the only way I got it was from purchasing the brawl pass. Now, I’m seeing new players with maxed brawlers with almost half my experience + power level 11 existing
I remember getting two chromatics in one mega box (ruffs and belle)
"imagine playing for 3 years and only getting 1 legendary" _why is this so accurate? WHY IS THIS SO FUCKING ACCURATE!_
I was that player who played 3 years and only got spike on the day his drop rate was rare😢
Bros doing a whole talk abt it while me screaming bring it back
I played from the day it was first launched out of beta, to when the boxes were removed. Didn’t get a single legendary, and only had 3 mythics
The main thing i miss about boxes is that you wouldnt get cosmetics...
When they put Starr drops in it shoulda just been boxes but with the Starr drop loot and drop rates
They should keep how it is now but also add brawl boxes
I just subed after he said that and a minute after i got a legendary star drop with a tick gadget
Boxes you can have 11 chances to get a brawler and star drops you have one
When brawl boxes were a thing I got every non-legendary but my only legendary was spike. I'm happy with credits.
The boxes were just iconic i think they should keep starr road an replace starr drops with boxes so you can still get brawlers with credits
Just add Coins and Power Points as a fixed reward in each Starr Drop and it'll be perfect
i hate getting a mythic stardrop and getting a skin for bea or something 😭
At least back then you could get some older chromatic brawlers, now you have to get all legendaries on a new account to even get sam
if they'd keep starr road with credits and all, boxes would be better than starr drops
Can we just admit the fact though that this video wasn’t brawl boxes vs star drops. It was brawl boxes vs the old progression system.
I actually only had crow when they removed boxes, and i have star shelly so i had been playing for quite a while a that point
Lmao imagine saying "I don't care about them I bought them ☝🏽🤓"
Boxes >>> Credits
Nah
Other way around.
Fact bro
@@Mr.Player_Unknown0381 rng is so great! I love not having any control over which brawler when i get!
@@erikcat2.036 yea and the boxes just make us feel more luckyer
i hope the boxes will come back😢
yeah they need to bring it back
No
Yes
No bruh
Honestly keep it as a ge. Option woudl be nice
I think I gained faster progression or unlock brawler faster when brawl box was a thing lol. Probably just my feeling but now, it feels so slow for progression
HEAR ME OUT. BOXES SHOULD RETURN BUT STAR DROPS SHOULD STAY
As someone who got their first legendary(Amber last year after playing since day 1)
I wish they would bring boxes back because I joined right when they removed them
Brawl boxes were good because I hate how anyone can get legendary without doing anything. I remember the hype when you got a character
I think people are just nostalgic. Like, if you do the maths, you do get better progression with starr road and all. But people want the luck based mechanic even tho now, with so much brawlers, it'll take months or maybe years to unlock them all (in my f2p experience, for example, up until the removal of boxes I had only one legendary. Now with starr road I have 6)
I never got a single legendary brawler from hoxes after 3 years, I'm happy that it changed.
OMG trophy escape is just Chinese showdown.😮😮
Maybe it is inspired from that but maybe it is harder to escape in trophy escape.
@@soumyadeepmukherjee8878Yeah IT'S a tad bit harder
1 legendary starr drop is like half the luck of a mega box,or you just get skin,gadgets, or anything
Legendary don't feel like legendaries anymore I mean it should be an option for players who have all brawlers to get boxes back since progression wise starr drops are better
Very complex so can't be implemented in the game.
@@soumyadeepmukherjee8878 yea kinda agree
Boxes should have credits guaranted in it and substitute star drops
i feel like im getting more brawlers from atarr d ops than i did from boxes
idk abt y’all but I’ve played the Chinese version and i feel it’s pretty ok bc it FEELS like a 30 smth chance to get like a hc, new brawler, etc but ig the pp and coins are kinda kak also maybe like legendaries
Boxes were the worst back in the day, people are blinded by nostalgia.
Losing brawl boxes also means losing my Darryl's brawl box skin 😢
The chinese servers also removed the Starr Road
Absolutely wild people want lootboxes back 💀
Hear me out, yes Starr drops can give u brawler and skins if ur lucky, but remember pin packs for 39 gems and megaboxes that u got for free. If we count tge rewards u get from a unlucky megabox are more than those from a rare starr drop (50 coins are weak)
Bro every time i saw 6 i would shit my pants
YYYYYYEEEEEEEESSSSS WE NEED THEM BACK
New player here but stars and boxes are the same thing but with a different coat of paint since both give you random things
i have NEVER gotten anything half decent from a star drop
Man star drops only give 1 thing but boxes give multiples stuff, pov u get a mythic and only get a spray
I’ve spent 3 years and haven’t even came close to a legendary 😢
Man as a new player brawl star needs to make it kuch easier to get new brawlers
Please I want the OG boxes back!
Stardrop is a good replacement for boxes, i know its frustrating to get rares but when u get a legendary it feels hella good, my most recent legend star drop gave me 1 epic 2 mythic 1 149 gem skin, 2 79 gems skin and a sp (i much rather get brawlers and skins than hypercharge or sp bc thats what i like the most about this game)
I have never gotten a brawler out of a star drop and I managed to get about 40 brawlers with boxes
Bring back but keep credits
When boxes got removed i was already had all brawlers but the problem is not brawlers in my opinion about boxes because the boxes gives good amount of coins and coin is a very big problem nowadays because of hypercharges and the luck factor isn’t good with star drops I remember when i got spike there wasn’t even brawl pass and I was very very happy for hatching spike but now when kit released I opened a legendary star drop and got kit and I was like oh cool new legendary ;-;
BRING BOXES BACK.
I miss brawl boxes🗿
this movie is goated, best way to introduce db super
Boxes should be aded back so when you playing u unlock brawlers and have the chance to get them from boxes
Never got a legendary brawler from the boxes even though I started playing the game in early 2019.
I started playing in 2018 and never got a legemdary
i play since global release and my first legendary was chester when the credits were added😢 you can see im very lucky
Boxes didn't had much randomness to, they only had brawlers, gadgets and star powers. With stardrops we got skins, pins, icons, sprays, credits and bling and more, Starr drops might cause people to get mad why they don't get anything good but actually star drops are useful
team they should bring brawl boxes back 👇(not forcing)
Idea First star drop is a brawl box 4th win is big box 8 win is mega 1 every 2 months get that one red one for winning 16 times
We misss boxes😂😩
