Back in the day, when you opened a megabox you were guaranteed to get a minimum ~200-300 gold and ~100-150 power points. This was back when it only took 1440 power points to upgrade a brawler to max. Now, that the cost to upgrade a brawler has increased to roughly triple what it used to be, and there are so many more brawlers in the game, how is it that people are opening these and getting less than 100 gold? The math isn't mathing. I've never seen a game weaponize cosmetics like brawl stars has. You get so many cosmetics that your progression slows down, and they intentionally appear in place of the rarer rewards. When I get a legendary star drop, I DO NOT WANT A SKIN, I WANT A HYPERCHARGE, but out of the last 10 legendary star drops I've opened I've received 8 skins and 1000 credits. Even when I'm not getting rare star drops, I get spammed with power points that I can't use, bling, token doublers, and other cosmetics that I don't care about. How has gold been the only resource that matters for so many years consecutively? How are people not mad about this?
i so agree i have 15000 power points but no coins. Supercell should make a function were you make power points into gold and opposite (hardly needed but just in case)
For real. And we will get max 1 megabox every 2-3 days. And personally, i dont really care about the skins(they are nice but they dont change your gameplay in any way), i care about progression, i feel like 500 coins should atleast be minimum
Dude in og brawl stars back when megaboxes were in the game literally the small boxes had double that progression😢 I opened mine as soon as the event came on and was so disappointed. I am glad to see that some people agree and I hope that they make some changes
During the 20-Day Event, we will be able to open a total of 6 mega boxes. This is equal to 1 mega box in 3 days. It would have been better if they had not brought it at all.😮😂
you get 4 tokens a day from daily events and 1 from special quests, the event lasts 20 days so that's 100 tokens. 10 Mega boxes require 120 tokens so you will get roughly 8, you also get one free from the shop at the begining which takes us at 9. If we look back at the past godzilla event where you had to open a certain ammount of temporary loot boxes (eggs), they gave a few free eggs at the begining and end of the event to make sure most people that were in a relatively active clan would get the skin, so i can only asume they will give a free mega box at the end of the event as well not to mention that they announced a challange where you can get more mega boxes, or at least tokens, so chances are everyone that plays 30 minutes each day during the event wil get the rico skin Are boxes good? no Did some people get lucky with the drops? yes. We all get a free hypercharge skin? also yes
@@mihaiioc.3809 its 2 tokens for daily event since only available in 2 modes. 1 from event quests. This is play again. And also the rewards sucks. At least the godzilla event the rewards were decent + the game modes were fun. These two new classic modes absolutely suck. You dont even get 1 mega box a day which sucks. The mega box rewards are completely rng and only lucky ones will be happy. But most of us are unlucky including me. I got friking 24 coins 42 power points 20 bling and 200 xp doubler in my first free mega box reward. The rewards are so bad id rather get 4 rare star drop cuz at least i get better chance to get 50 gold
Megaboxes were much, much more stable back before. This feels like starrdrops reskin, not like a megabox. There weren't such a huge gap between drops (I mean that boxes gave you, let's say, between 250 and 300 powerpoints and around 300 coins. These "megaboxes" give you between 10 and 1000 powerpoints and same thing with coins. Oh, of course you would NOT get 1000 of pp/coins cuz chances for it is lower than my chances to become successful in life). Also there were gems in boxes before "brawl pass". Skins were indeed more accessible because of this. And tickets. I liked me some tickets at weekend to get a lot of boxes to open later on.
Also the power points where spreaded between brawlers, in total it was like 300 to 800 power points, i remember a single brawler could get up to around 150 power points. Basically these new "Megaboxes" are a scam. They should really just change the values to a decent, like around the half of what a megabox would give you, also the gold value should be doubled, cuz 1000 gold is worth nothing. No way 40 bling, 120 gold, 80 power points, 200 token doublers and 7 gems are worth five dollars.
@@alexandrosusanareyes7359 fun fact: Those "mega" "boxes" have almost exactly the same amount of drops as big box. Supercell scamming people with this one
@@rosimarmota300as a player with star Shelly, I can confirm, literally getting a mega box before the brawl pass was impossible, and progression was 📉📉📉, after brawl pass getting any brawler other than epic was unrealistic and tbh getting 1k coins feels like it allows you to upgrade something for once, like it can buy you a gadget, which was mostly only obtainable on the mega box, the best thing the pass offered, and the worst part that it's random and it makes you anxious for nothing, it feels like it doesn't even compete with a mythic Starr drop, let alone a legendary And getting a legendary is 3x faster than back then
i started this game april i work so hard i only have 29 brawlers because the star drops are too rare for mythic and legendary and also this useless mega boxes my strongest brawlers are edgar squeak and dynamike things so expensive in the game
The problem is that the new boxes are focused more on dropping new items (by type of brawlers, skins, etc.) than on upgrading acc, as it was before. Therefore, u should buy boxes on not full acc to get max profit. But honestly, u get really bad drops than an ordinary player
They can't really be that good because it would be a way too big buff for progression and would lose Supercell lots of money, but 80 GEMS is way too big of a price for a bit better starr drop
They used to be shit back then anyways, they didn’t come back for progression of course not, that’s why it’s a short event. It’s for those kids crying: uh it was so good 2020, im og, im 12 year old I open mega box and get Leon. The community wanted them and now see they are shit
No they wont? You wont get 20-30 megabox from this event. Most people will obtain 1 mega box per 2-3 days. Thats around 10-15 megaboxes assuming that they will atleast give us some quests.Also you have to play every days whatever trophy event has those points and the special event
@@Stephano1 yes but you know does it matter if you get 10 boxes now with 150 coins each instead of 10 boxes with 250 coins? Like bro 1000 coins is not going to change the world? They didn’t bring boxes back for coins, they were brought back for classic brawl and all the cool skins 😎.
@@ChrisBloxyNothe progression from the mega boxes did actually drop massively, i did get surge from my first mega box though, so you’ll still get good stuff if you aren’t finished with the star road
They should decrease the skin drop chance (and probably delete xp doublers being obtainable) so you get good, guaranteed account progression every single megabox.
for the free megabox we got, i turned to my friend while opening it and said "i wonder if they coded this one to give us less items since its free" and ended up getting kit. he looked me dead in the eyes and said "they coded it to give you worse items, yeah?" in a sarcastic funny voice that sounded angry. i went upstairs for a bit and i came back down he told me that he 'accidentally' bought megaboxes. im loving today 😭
@@hehehehaw8346dawg these mega boxes are so much worse than their versions before deletion. Rng is whatever but it’s less than a 1% chance to get 1k coins, half of a freaking star power, a fucking star power!
yeah it's crazy. literally just telling their players that they don't value their time at all. waiting 3 days for a single box that gives such trash loot.
I had 519 gems and wented to wait for a reduction on a legendary brawler and this event came out. So i though i could get many brawlers and coins in it but i just wasted 500 gems for a mere 1500 gold and pins
This is literally trash they should have added star powers, gadgets and hypercharges. At this point grinding brawl stars doesn't even matter. Everything at this point is p2w.
@@robocolor10 by p2w I mean they give almost everything in the shop for you to buy such as early excess offers, skin packs, hypercharges, these mega boxes, (mutation eggs too).
istg SC only added boxes back to make sure everyone loved starr drops more Edit: yes starr drops ARE a progression upgrade and resorting to bring up the glitches in the store to explain they were better explains a lot about the entire situation
@aarne602 yes? Cuz they are. Star drops system gives u faster progression compared to the old boxes. Now if u compare 1 box vs 1 star drop obviously the box will be better but when u receive 3 star drops each day just by playing its a lot better. Not to mention boxes were literally gambling. And they gave u power points of a random brawler not just power points
The Mega box rewards are honestly tragic. All they give is cosmetics and rarely a brawler, which is worth less than a NORMAL DAMN STARR DROP. You get more coins from a super rare starr drop, than from a single mega box.
The old mega boxes were different, they would easily be *better* than new “mega boxes” The old mega boxes I remember were ones with 12 remaining and flashing lights
They just could add the old mega boxes how they back the but no they Had to make These SHIT BOXES. I think they Are just Brawl boxes with a Mega Box Skin
I remember back in the day when I played so little that I only got one mega box and I got a new brawler from it (think it was spike) . And I remember the small boxes having better drops than star drops
Bro snake , soon you hit the 1mio subs before jojonas 😂 thats crazy how you came from 14k to 1mio in under 2 years , it’s insane bro. And now you are soon a bigger channel than Jojonas…
Snakethug showdown is going through a great comp right now, the berry kit melts everyone easily, we would like a video about it (also, they fill up their super powers themselves, how nice)
Wow, I was actually considering spending money for 20 mega boxes because I was certain they will be very good and boost your account a lot. I’m glad I watched your video before buying any gems 👍🏼
What i don't like about this new "mega box" is that when you pull a skin it gives you the pin/profile icon/spray in a seprate number Like you get a box with 10 and 4 of those are from stellar shelly (shown in the video)
Thanks for the vid, I am DEFINITELY not going to buy the mega boxes now. Hopefully they would buff it next update and give you and other players who buy the boxes compensation for this... 😢 🙏
I hate that if you get a skin, the pin also counts as an item as if it isn’t a part of the skin when you get it. You get so excited because you see it blinking at 6 items remaining but it’s just 3 skins and 3 stupid pins for every skin
I really want the old brawl boxes back not the new ones because in each brawl box they used to give 1k gold In the start of the brawl box and extras in the end. Also I would like the star powers or gadgets in the boxes too how you said and maybe a small chance of getting hypercharges like maybe the same chance as the 100 gems which is 0.06 % chance or maybe even lower so if they do all of that or even more than all of that I said will be really really appreciate if they do that or even more.
Im a f2p and I hate hypercharge, they cost 5000coin and a brawl pass only contains 8000coins, Im not gaining progression, the more hypercharges there are my account is just further from getting maxed out. I think f2p player should get at least 30000 free coins per month.
They really should remove pins xp doubler and player icons from mega box. Also make minimum reward for coins 200-500-1000 power points 100-250-5000 Bling 100-500-1000 Star powers Gadgets Hypercharge Rare epic skins. Gems 10-20-100
Brawler rates are much higher gems were impossible to get and cosmetics were also, if you are looking for coins and power points I dont know what to tell you, we have everything else for that.
@@taquavion99999 It isn't but you are assuming every box is the worst possible case. You can do that with old mega boxes and you will get the same outcome, disappointed. A decent amount of boxes give skins and brawlers, and given that we can get 11 for free, it's quite likely you will get atleast one. Not even considering the fact that we get a free hypercharge rico skin.
i've opened only one free megabox and got 15 items. it had Willow, Berry, and Rico's new skin. (those brawlers i literally needed because these were the last 2 on my account)
