Brawler Counter Guide

what's going on guys welcome back to a brand new video on the channel inside of today's video we're going to be taking a look at the best counters to the best 10 Brewers in the game right now so I know you probably like me right kind of sick and tired of the broken Brawlers in this meta well hopefully some of this video will help you encountering them and trying to defeat them but sometimes it's a little bit impossible because there's three of them that are really strong spoiler alert but you probably know already so make sure you subscribe to the channel if you're not already we are absolutely killing it with a brand new update again I am on vacation still but once we turn we'll be smashing the content out every single day for you guys so without further Ado let's jump into it so we're going to be starting off with probably the best roller in the game in Lily so Lily is in a 1 V one just insane because she can deal like 6.3k damage with a damage star power and there's not much she can do with a gadget so pretty much the only way to counter her is try and wait and try and expect her in terms of her positioning just like Leon just expect her to be in weird positions with a gadget and always try and keep track of her when she appears in a book etc etc but in terms of gameplay Frank is a great counter I know he's meta but he's a great counter because he has a lot of HP and Lily just can't really kill a Frank and you can also time your super well so when she appears out of the gadget you can stun her and kill her and take her down next Meg so Meg's really good because a lot of HP knock back s power is really hard for Lily to push into a Meg then you got the lights of Hanks actually a good counter to Lily because he's very tanky that's probably the best thing uh best way to counter Lily you want a a lot of HP because Lily will just unload so much damage so quickly to the squishy Brawlers they can't even respond so Hank's good and then you've got the super as well that can just destroy Lily and at least keeping topped up with more HP and you've got a tanky Gadget so Hank actually is a really good uh counter and then you got the likes of a bit because a bit is tanky and then also you want to group up when you're against Lily because then you can get the trade or at least make it so multiple people are shooting and taking her down so AIT is good for those Camp uh camping composition and then you've got the likes of ATI in 1 V one with a gadget can instantly delete Lily and then you got Chester because Chester always has a lot of damage in him especially with just his Bell cycle so next up we're going to be looking at the best ways to counter Frank and apologize again for not having like the correct gameplay show in every single interaction but it's hard with 81 Brewers in a game it's hard to get the exact combination but there's one BR in particular that you guys should know about by now and it is Colette Colette is just easily the best front counter of course having so much HP Colette is in on that that's why she's s just literally countering one of the best Brothers in a game and then you've got Primo Primo is really good against Frank because you can interrupt the super and attack with uh Primo super with his Gadget as well and you can just keep cycling but I still for like Frank's actually okay against Primo so it's not as hard as a counter as before because once you're close to defeating Frank he can just shred you so yeah it's pretty hard to defeat him and next up we got loose so lose is really good because the way you C Frank is just to try and keep out of his distance which is pretty hard but Lou allows that with the freezing he allows it with the super cycling the hyperia can help with the insane damage potential you think of power grab for example Lou can Nerf that to literally half with uh near enough him fully Frozen so I really love Lou against Frank and then we've got Shelly and bull so bull is a decent counter if you can get close to Frank but still I just don't think he the greatest counter in this meta and then Shell's just good because you can open up the map and just Farm supers but I really only think Lou and are the best counters so next up we're going to be looking at the best ways to counter Draco so Draco can get countered by tanks for example that's probably the best way because he doesn't have like infinite damage he can't just burst through tanks quickly so I think draco's been suffering a little bit more in terms of the ladder meta because there's just tanks everywhere so you know Frank can be a good counter and just buzz I see a lot of Buzz they switch star power to the extra stun so they can they can cancel Draco a lot easier and if you time it correctly you can stop Draco from entering Dragon form so Buzz is an insane counter in competitive play in terms of other counters I think cordelius is a good soft counter because again if you time it right you can interrupt the super but not only that you can waste a lot of draco's super duration just by putting him into the shadow realm and then running away and then that's just really annoying as a draco player I know that myself because I abuse Draco in this meta and next up we've got kette again High HP KET can push Draco away you've got the gadget to heal up as well CL is an insane counter and then I did say just any type of stun mechanic I think that's really underrated because again there's nothing more annoying when you're trying to cycle through your supers with Draco and someone interrupts you and waste your super that's the best way to counter Draco is by wasting his super next we're going to be taking a look at the best ways to counter Barry and I think it's a lot easier than other metab Brawlers in the game right now so the best way by far especially once I was pushing Barry is obviously other meta Brawlers just completely dominate him so that's stopping him from being broken but just any form of tank because of course he has very limited burst potential his damage is just a puddle so if you can avoid that and not only that you know just one tick of it it doesn't stack as well so you kind of think of how Willow got countered when she was released because her damage wasn't like instant it's the same counters to Barry and of course he's super squishy so tanks should be able to Feast on him sometimes you can Dash away with Barry Gadget but eventually tanks are going to overwhelm him next up we have a Melody so I found Melody is a great counter because any type of like uh ability is really good because you can move out the way of the puddles you can just close the gap onto Barry and that's what you want you want to get close to him to try and take him down so Melody and Max are really good for that reason so now we're going to be looking at the best counters to tank counters like KET and Gail who have just been dominating in The Meta so of course the meta is always like rock paper scissors you've got tank counters you've got tanks and then you've got like snipers that suffer versus the assassins and the tanks so of course you want to use those snipers so for example like B and pipe but it's always the best way to counter because you just keep the distance collect just can't out damage in a 1 V one you know with col's damage it's just tiny into a low HP brawler so of course you want to use something like that your typical Lanes as well are going to be pretty good against these Brawlers and then of course throwers because there's nothing a tank uh well a tank counter can do to close the gap you know what is CL and Gail really going to do against a thrower nothing except for try and waste their time next up we're going to be looking at the best ways to counter Melody so she's just been ramping in The Meta for a long time so you should know how to counter her by now and she's a little bit more man manageable with the HP Nerf but there's a few brers in particular so cordelius I love running into Melody because once you put melody in the shadow realm it removes all of her notes so of course she has no DPS and then just in a shadow realm she has no super and her main attack deals no damage so you can just run into Melody so quickly and kill her every single time and next up we've got Charlie so I know people will say well the notes still go around in a cocoon when you super hurt but still it's a great shutdown you know if Melody's about to rush in while you can just say una a reverse card put her into the Cocoon and there's nothing that she can do and then once she's out of it you should be able to take her down quickly because you can coordinate and pinch really easily and then lastly we have tanks because we all know Melody isn't the best damage dealer she's good at just Mobility getting around the map and finding her well finding her best matchups but then into tanks that's not a lot she can do she can Farm super she well she can Farm super and notes but in terms of pure 1 V one she can't do much now we're looking at the best ways to counter Meg and boy is she just dominating The Meta right now but it is she like serves a different purpose in The Meta right now but the best way to always counter Meg is by big damage dealers so for example you know CL is a great character to make because she has 8,000 HP so a couple of shots can make her weak super just kill her but will say Meg you know if CL doesn't have a well time Gadget or good super me can still destroy collect pretty easily with the damage but then my favorite one is definitely lot because you should be able to somewhat outrange me feed a lot of suus because she's got a bigger hit box and she's just beefy and then you can just stun lock her and cycle fruit to your next one and next counter B I love is Lola so she used to be a better counter last season I still feel out she's a decent counter because of course you've got her super that can just deal double of damage well near enough double of the damage you get what I mean you could just shred through you've got longer range than Meg and you've got decent amount of HP so you should be able to win that battle and then lastly Gail main reason Gail can pretty much outrange a Meg you can Farm a lot of supers he can stun Meg and all of that good stuff so in that 1 V one Gail is pretty good so now we're moving into wayte to counter kit so we should be pretty familiar with how to counter kit because kit was like the best R in the game when uh kit was released but there's a few ways in particular you've got a play style so for example if it's knockout or just any game mode you want to abuse the early game so making sure you're pushing up the map whilst kit is charging that super because kit is vulnerable without super so especially a knockout you want to win that first knockout round whilst kit doesn't have Super Pinch push up the map and get Kit down as quickly as possible it's the best way to win against kit next we have cordelius and Charlie so again rewind back to the kit meta these were the two brers that you could only use against kit to counter because for example cordelius with a super it detaches both the tank or just whoever Kit's jumped on and then Kit's just there vulnerable in the middle and your teammates should be able to take down the kit if time corly uh Charlie as well the same you just cocoon the tank or whereever whoever kits attached to and then kits vulnerable without being attached or without super uh next up we have RTI as well so of course in duels in Showdown RTI just deletes kit in a 1 V one so now we're going to be moving into the best way to counter Angelo so Angelo has been a top rer for a long time now you guys should be familiar with the best counters but I'll rerun it for you guys if you're unaware so the first one is Max so max is really good because you've got a gadget to tank one of the big shots from Angelo and now I feel like Angelo is definitely more vulnerable to uh just type of aggro play because it takes three shots to cycle to Super so any type of aggression stopping Angelo from cycling healing up effectively Max is uh the queen at that next up we've got Draco so Draco is a good counter to Angelo main reason being is because you can apply a lot of pressure and that's what I love doing with Draco so Draco compositions Angelo just hates facing off against because it's just so cheesy and then lastly I went with throwers so I know like poker composition and tank are pretty good against Angelo but they're not really seeing that much on good Angelo Maps so I think frow is a great counter to Angelo because you could you know he's squishy you can just stay behind a wall and just annoy him moving into the final brawler we're looking to counter it is Byron so as we always know the best way to counter him is to get close try and take him down especially if there's some cheese going on a lot of times you can't actually deal with a Draco and a kit running at you you've got to go with the Byron who's in the pocket and take him down so it's pretty hard if he has the booster boost to shot and then he has the Super to defend himself but Piper should be able to beat him in a 1 V one you've got the gadget to confirm a kill you're outrange byon and you've got a hyper charge as well it should be pretty fit free in a 1 V one next up we've got Buzz so Buzz is just a great counter because you got the stun and in 1 V one you just shred Byron so quickly again you just kind of need this assassin to get directly on top of him because byon can still deal somewhat with tanks because he actually deals a lot of damage and then lastly we have moik so you need that assassin you need the light of Edgar mortis moiko the ones that can get on top of him quickly and take him down effectively of course Mo can just jump over Baron shots and whatever else so that's going to be it for today's video guys I hope this video helps you out in terms of figuring out the best Brewers to counter The Meta because the meta is wild right now so I feel like this video is probably more so more important than ever before on the channel so yeah hope you guys enjoyed don't forget to like comment and subscribe and I'll see you guys next time
