major update · live since 8/3/2026, 9:00:00 PM

The undated release balance section contains broad buffs, nerfs, mixed adjustments, and Brawl Arena-only scaling changes. The release also describes major reworks to Rico, Brock, 8-Bit, Meg, Max, and Surge as part of the new Buffies.

What changed

• Rico rework
  Multiball Launcher was reworked into a 4000-HP vending machine that fires projectiles when destroyed and can be loaded with more projectiles by Rico when Buffied. Bouncy Castle was reworked into a giant gumball that splits on hitting a wall or enemy, with both projectiles slowing enemies when Buffied.
• Brock rework
  Rocket Rain was reworked so its rocket barrage tracks Brock's movement. Rocket Laces became aimable and deals 1000 damage on takeoff and landing; the Buffie grants a 2s speed boost when it hits an enemy.
• 8-Bit rework
  Extra Credits was reworked into an aimable 18-projectile attack that can be used during the main attack, with Buffied projectiles bouncing to nearby enemies. Its listed Buffies also heal 8-Bit for 3600 through Cheat Cartridge, spawn ammo every 3s through Boosted Booster, grant allies 15% speed through Plugged In, and provide infinite ammo during Hypercharge.
• Meg rework
  Mega Machina was reworked to deal 3000 area damage when Meg enters her Mecha. Jolting Volts, Tool Box, and Heavy Metal were reworked, including 11% healing each second for 7s in Mecha form, a 1600-damage Mecha launch followed by a 4s Super charge, and 1200 healing per enemy hit by Meg's Super.
• Max rework
  Phase Shifter became aimable, Sneaky Sneakers received a quality-of-life rework allowing manual or automatic return after 3s with damage recovery, and Super Charged was reworked so main-attack hits extend Super duration by 0.25s. Their Buffies add a second dash after 3s, ammo refill and ally healing on return, and a 4s shield for teammates affected by the Super.
