Welcome to the ultimate guide on how to master your weapon in Brawlhalla. Whether you’re a beginner or stuck in Platinum, this step-by-step breakdown will help you take your game to the next level.
1. Learn Your Weapon’s True Combos
Start by mastering the true combos of your weapon. These are the foundation of your gameplay. You can:
- Search YouTube for the most recent guides.
- Use BrawlDB (Brawlhalla Database) to see the combos and their usability ratings.
Usability is key: Focus on combos with a 9 or 10 rating. For example, on Lance, you might find:
- Sidelight > Jump Nair
- Sidelight > Jump Sair
Practice these combos in Training Mode until you can do them consistently without dodge windows. Any dodge window means it’s not true.
2. Understand Your Entire Weapon Kit
Don’t rely on just two or three moves. Many players spam the same attacks, which makes them predictable.
Break down each attack:
- Neutral Light (NLight): Use for quick pokes or punishes.
- Down Light (DLight): Great for stacked situations or catching landings.
- Sidelight (SLight): Slower, riskier, but offers combo potential.
Know when and why to use each move. Recognizing their properties helps you respond to different scenarios.
3. Practice in Real Scenarios
Use what you learn in games:
- Catch landings with DLight.
- Punish whiffs with SLight.
- Mix in unorthodox moves like chase dodge options to keep opponents guessing.
Watch your gameplay back or take notes on situations where you could have used your full kit.
4. Lab Custom Strings and Kill Confirms
Once you have combos down, experiment in Training Mode:
- Try chaining strings like SLight > DAir > NLight for extra damage.
- Lab kill setups like SLight > Chase Dodge Sair to catch DI or panic jumps.
You want a mix of consistency and creativity. Lab unusual but effective tech and see how it fits your playstyle.
5. Use Advanced Tech (Be a Pioneer)
Try out lesser-used tech that can give you an edge:
- Instant Sairs or Dairs on weapons like Lance to punish recoveries.
- Chase dodge mixups to bait and punish dodges.
These are tools few players use but can confirm kills if applied properly.
6. Watch Pro Gameplay
Observe how top-level players use your weapon. Look for:
- How they pressure.
- What strings they use.
- How they adapt to opponents.
Examples:
- Axe: Watch players like Zeph
- Lance: Lux or Jet Bean
- Bow: Impala, Flower
- Scythe: Mar
- Gauntlets: Sandstorm, Fiend
Analyze what they do that you don’t and incorporate it.
Conclusion
Mastering your weapon is about:
- Understanding true combos
- Fully utilizing your moveset
- Applying and adapting your knowledge
- Labing advanced tech
- Learning from the best
Stick to these principles, and you’ll find yourself climbing through ranks while developing solid fundamentals that work on any weapon.
Good luck, and see you in Valhalla!
