But what's new in the Summer 2019 update of Brawl Stars ? As we said, there's a lot of meat on the fire but, to sum up, the most important updates are: a new brawler, new maps, new skins, new stellar abilities for all the wrestlers on the roster and, above all, the introduction of a new electronic currency.
Do you want to know all the updates Brawl Stars ? All you have to do is read the following lines to find out everything there is to know.
The 2019 summer update Brawl Stars begins with a bang, introducing us to the newcomer to your fighters' roster: Tick. He's a pitching brawler, belonging, to say the least, to the same category as Dynamike and Bombardino. However, Tick differs from his two illustrious colleagues for his attacks and, of course, for his final technique.
If Dynamike throws explosive sticks, if Bombardino uses, instead, corrosive bottles, capable of inflicting damage to the area, Tick's attacks will generate three bombs, which will explode both when an opponent approaches and after a certain period of time.
As for the Super of this new brawler, we're looking at something definitely new and unexpected. Once filled the usual bar, Tick will launch his head, which will go to reach the nearest opponent, exploding on contact. However, be aware that this final weapon can be destroyed if hit a certain number of times.
Tick will be available completely free of charge to all players who have accumulated 4000 trophies or more.
New maps and skins for our brawlers
If the Costa del Sole map makes us understand that even for our wrestlers the swimming season has arrived, one of the nicest additions of this update Brawl Stars concerns the new skins that, starting from today, will be present in the digital shop of the game.
There are four alternative costumes, all mecha-themed: Bo mecha, Corvo mecha, Dynamacchina and Spike Automa, which will go to Bo, Corvo, Dynamike and Spike respectively.
But the surprises aren't over: you'll be able to buy color variations of these skins, but not through gems, but with a new digital currency specially introduced by this summer update from Supercell: the Star Points.
Brawl Stars How to get Star Points
With the introduction of this new virtual currency, Supercell has definitely surprised us. The Starpoints are, in fact, a new way to buy various kinds of items from the digital store of Brawl Stars . At the moment, you can use them to buy skins for our favorite brawlers, or a color variation of the mecha skins mentioned above.
How do you get Star Points in Brawl Stars ? There are many ways to earn them, and one of the main ones will be the number of trophies you have. Higher ranking players, with more than 5000 trophies, will see their excess trophies reset to zero with the new season; but don't worry, the excess trophies will be converted into Star Points.
Finally, even if we rise in rank with our brawlers, we'll be rewarded with Star Points. Going down in more detail, we'll be rewarded when our characters reach the ranks, respectively:
- Grade 10 = 100 Star Points
- Grade 15 = 200 Star Points.
- Grade 20 = 300 Star Points
Brawl Stars All new Star Abilities on the way
You know what they say when they say, "last last but not least"? Well, even in this case, the best surprise came at the end of the video that presented the summer update of Brawl Stars . Every week, during this long and red-hot summer, three new stellar skills will be released for our wrestlers.
