Top 10 Best Brawlers for Showdown ‘Island Invasion’
Showdown is the most popular and competitive game mode in Brawl Stars. It is actually Supercell’s way of bringing the famous ‘Battle Royale’ mode in Brawl Stars. The theme is the same if you see, kill others and survive till the end to win the game. Isn’t it?
There are two modes – Solo and Dual Mode. As the name suggests, in Dual mode you play with a partner and there is a chance to revive yourself and your partner, as long as, one of the players is alive. But, you do not get another life immediately, you will have to wait for 10-15 seconds.
Every map in Showdown comes with a catch. Sometimes, you will see meteors dropping around and sometimes giant robots who will be crawling on the map to take the life out of you. Whereas, some maps drop life-saving items like healing zones and energy drinks.
The Island Invasion is one of the first community maps in Brawl Stars. As the name suggests, the map is situated on an island, on a circular one. The outer eccentric part of the map is fully cover with dry bush. You know what that means, you can stroll around the map without letting anyone know.
But, you should be aware of the invasion! A team might be coming to knock you out, and you won’t see that coming at all. That’s why the map is a nightmare in Solo Mode Showdown.
Now let us take a look at the top 10 best brawlers for Showdown ‘Island Invasion.’
- 1. SHELLY –
Being a close-range brawler, bush camping is a good strategy for Shelly. Her Super can be devastating to unwary enemies, and her Fast Forward Gadget can help her to get closer or further away from enemies. Both of Shelly’s Star Powers are helpful: Shell Shock slows down enemies that might otherwise escape from Shelly, while Band-Aid heals Shelly by a considerable amount.
- 2. BULL –
Although Bull can be easily pressured by long-range brawlers, bush camping is an effective strategy. If you can sneak up on an opponent, Bull’s ridiculously high damage at close-range lets him get the kills easily. He can also both charge at long-ranged brawler and take away the long-ranged advantage their opponent had.
- 3. EL PRIMO –
El Primo’s Super, which launches him a fairly long distance for a devastating attack, allows him to join into a pre-existing fight, or chase down players that think they can escape. He can pressure enemies easily but works better alone than in a team because he will constantly be chasing down other people due to his close-range attacks. El Primo is also a good brawler to bush-camp with, due to his powerful close-range attack. Any mid or long-ranged brawlers who can sneak up on him will have virtually no chance of survival unless they can use a Super or Gadget to get out of El Primo’s range.
- 4. PAM –
With high health and damage, especially at close range, as well as a wide attack spread at long range, Pam is excellent at defeating enemies quickly, controlling an area, or sweeping bushes. Her healing station provided by her Super will give her additional survivability, making her very hard to be taken out – not only healing her but acting as a barricade with limited health, too. Her Mama’s Hug Star Power gives her an advantage that few other brawlers have: the ability to heal while attacking. You can also use her Mama’s Squeeze Star Power very strategically too. For example, if someone is cornered in a small space, you can put your station on one side of the wall and your opponent would be forced to come out.
- 5. SPIKE –
When he hits a target, Spike can deal really high damage to a single target. Even if he misses, the 6 spikes will burst out and might hit a target, giving him the ability to pressure enemies. Also, his Super can slow down enemies, as well as heal him if he has his Fertilize Star Power. His Curveball Star Power makes it even easier to hit a target.
- 6. ROSA –
Rosa’s Super allows her to take 70% less damage while rushing a brawler so she can get close to do high amounts of damage without risking a large amount of health. Since Rosa has one of the shortest attack ranges in the game, she benefits from bush camping to ambush brawlers. She can also discourage bush camping with her Unfriendly Bushes Gadget, especially in maps like Island Invasion with lots of bishes.
- 7. BO –
With good health, damage, and utility, Bo can ensure damage from his Super by using it on a key chokepoint, dealing high damage to or even defeating enemies. His Circling Eagle Star Power is really useful on bushy maps like Island Invasion, allowing him to pressure commonly played tanks.
- 8. BROCK –
Brock has high damage from both his main attack and Super. His long range also means that he can either attack enemies from a long distance or quickly defeat enemies up close despite his low health. Both Gadgets help Brock; Rocket Laces can be used to escape nasty situations by jumping over walls, and Rocket Fuel can even fend off high-health brawlers.
- 9. BEA –
Although Bea struggles to break down power cube boxes, she can defeat enemies very effectively due to her long-range and supercharged shot – which Bea can make harder to avoid using her Super or her Honey Molasses Gadget.
- 10. MAX –
Max can utilize her high mobility and her Super to run away from tough situations when necessary. She is also able to deal a lot of damage to enemies as she has good damage, four ammo, and Run N’ Gun Star Power to allow her to reload even aster. Her Star Power, Super Charged, gives her an ability rather similar to Darryl – automatically charging her Super.
Well, here is the list of the best 10 brawlers that you can use in the Showdown ‘Island Invasion’ event. Make sure to read the characteristics of each mentioned brawler carefully before selecting them for the map.
