I grinded through so much torture to get multiple power league skins. I would’ve rather just waited a couple years if I knew they would come back. That’s what I’m doing with these more recent ones that I want. Same with me spending my hard earned money on old skins like virus 8 bit. And I’m saying this as someone who has very few of the exclusive skins, and wish I had bought some of the ones that I didn’t.

Star shelly literally says in its description that you can get it for free before 2020, so bringing it back would undermine the concept of the global launch history. Brawl pass skins are brawl pass skins and as the name says they should remain exclusive for the players who completed and bought the pass with gems, and brawl pass is purchsable by saving enough gems without purchasing them. The other 4 options you considered are good, and if I were to vote this, I'd bring back Christams skins

When I was a youth, I was part of group that met a ton. It was a blast. We received critiques that there were too many events; movies, beach days, (nerf/airsoft/paintball) wars, board game days, and so on. It was impossible for every youth in the group make it to every event. And we got complaints. It blew my mind. As someone who could make it to the majority of the events, and who cannot get the majority of the exclusive skins, I understand not everyone can get everything. Someone won’t be able to partake. It’s not about everyone partaking, it’s about having things for everyone to partake so that when they miss something, there’s something around the corner. Exclusive isn’t a problem. I’ve had to choose the skins I pursue. The exclusive skins I have mean a lot. Don’t take that away. If they want to bring value to things, make them limited. It sucks for those who can’t, but if they can once, it will have way more impact.

I feel like star shelly shouldn’t come back in any way, but for the others maybe the OG skin could have a shimmer or something, similar to true gold/silver.

I think the easiest way to keep everyone happy is with recolours, cus in the end, say someone wanted heroine bibi and the recolour had a red sword not a green one, I feel like one of the coolest parts of the skin is thst it’s bibi with a sword not specifically the colours yk. Not to say that every design element isn’t important but I just mean I’m sure there are plenty of ways to make recoloured skins look awesome in such a way that it wouldn’t be a disappointment to unlock them instead. I suppose there will be people who would care a lot about the original variant that don’t have them but I mean that’s just the way things go sometimes.

Imo Star Shelly should stay exclusive though

i think they should bring back some of the exclusive skins - but not the special event skins, because they were there for that event and that time. itd be nice if some of the power league skins could come back, but as an extra thing to earn in new/current power league

From my perspective, the one of an Italian player who has some old skins due to my time spent from practically the launch of the game, I have no issue if the Developers decide to make them available right now but it would be better if they added some kind of "certificate" such as a line beside the skin saying something like: "This skin was acquired during the 2019 season", in order to separate those who played to obtain those goods and those who paid later

Totally agree with you kairos! Also, if the intention behind bringing back exclusive skins is to create extra revenue, then it's gonna backfire big time. Many players are gonna buy less "exclusive" skins in the future as there's that possibility that the skin will return in the future, like with what they're doing now. Just like with that's happening with power league. Less players are grinding for the skin now as we know we'll be able to buy it in the future and it's not worth the effort. I hope they are making this decision for the newer players who wants to get these locked skins😅

Im totally on you're side about that Kairos I get it why they would bring back exclusive skins and as somone who started playing brawl stars only a few days after you couldn't get star Shelly anymore yeah it sucks but for the people who got star Shelly it's a really nice flex to have and that would just digrate the feeling that you have something that so many players don't

I think that these points are very good so I’d say that it would be good if there was something to distinguish the people who got the original, exclusive skins and the people who buy them afterwards (given that they do get put back into the game). My current thoughts are like some kind of sparkle effect or something that would go on the original skins. Or if it didn’t cause a lot of controversy, then I’d say some kind of matching pin or spray or title would be good as well (but probably wouldn’t be the best option since there are probably people who would want to collect those pins/sprays/titles as well which they wouldn’t be able to do and that would just extend the debate)

I always love Kairos Videos, specifically on how Hes always honest and sees both sides As a Global player, I see this as a negative. Cause I remember always waking up to seeing these fun event skins and me begging for money so I can buy the ones I wanted to keep forever. Knowing I can always use them. So yeah personally it sucks but at the end of the day, I'm still going to be playing cause the game is fun and I'm still going to support it even if I can't be on the winning side to everything

I just feel like this is a good way to raise the game's revenue without doing drastic changes. I have faith that the team will give some type of effect or something new to the originally bought skins

If we are getting these skins again, I think if they re-release them they should either be recolors, or give special pins and badges to those who originally have them. If the exclusive things returning were actually relevant to the game, I would be all for it, but for skins, I don’t see any reasons why, as they were sold as exclusive. As you said, I do feel like some peoples opinions matter more. For someone that joined the game one month ago, like you said, will want it, but loyal players like you, and many others should come first.

I started playing when season 3 ended (Welcome to starr park!) And now it’s season 19, I’m still playing every day, I missed all the skins I wanted, like born bad buzz and director buzz because buzz is one of my favorite brawlers. I’ve been saving my gold for weeks if the exclusive skins come out again. Edit: Star Shelly should stay exclusive.

I remember back during the last sales of the 2018 & 2019 Lunar Brawl skins that I bought two skins there, and i saved up my f2p gems for them

Finally someone says it, thanks kairos for being honest❤

@ShooterEx

9 ай бұрын

I was super against varients because it would create even more exclusivity but adding a logo might actually do it.

I think what they should do is track when the account was made and make the exclusive skins that were released since then make those available for the player then, i myself have been playing brawl stars for 4 years or more and i don’t have any exclusive skins except for heroine bibi on an alt account. I don’t have the anniversary shelly skin because i quit for a while then.

The whole point of an exclusive skin is that it's value trumps it's looks That's the whole reason why skins in League of Legends like Grey Warwick and King Rammus are so sought after you can't possibly get them anymore I don't mind letting people in on getting the skin they want because they really like the skin But the way to do it is NOT letting everybody just buy the exclusive skins and wash away all the cool value that comes with having it. Give the collectors an alternate color for being one of the OG's or don't re-release them. It's that simple You can't just make every exclusive and rare skin available again without also upsetting your most decidated players Fortnite had Skull trooper and they handled it perfectly with an exlcusive alternate color

​@@Austriaisthebest_nope, I really wanted it but never got enough gems to buy it I just love it and I'll never get it. I really liked it and hope it won't get recolored at all. It looks good to me I just want to have it along with other skins that I like originally (Heroine Bibi, Ninja Street Tara etc) It's just my opinion don't bully me

I personally want all skins to come back except the exclusive ones like star shelly, challenger colt and power league skins. If they can, each of these skins should also come back with a colour variation. Power league skins were just available for buying for 30 wins or 60 rounds. They're now giving all of them to buy just like that. Not fair! I wasn't playing this game at the time of Star Shelly and challenger colt, I don't even know they were for free or need money. If they were to buy with money, only a colour variation or any mark should be released. If they were for free like anniversary, brawloween and brawlidays, they should come back as now, we are paying (gems/bling) for them.

While I can understand this perspective, I wish for a small window of return, while compensating original owners of the skin. I am a Nita collector and permanently missed out on Nian Nita largely due to factors out of my control such as health and tragedy. Since Nita is my flagship brawler, I would like to not feel like a failure for having missed out on a skin. All that being said, I respect anyone’s opinion to the contrary. We just never know when life will strike us negatively.

I feel the same, I missed star shelly only by a few day (12 days to be exact) and it pained me to see it wasn't coming back. Missing out on something exclusive can be a pain at times especially if only by a little bit so to keep things still a bit rare I'd suggest allowing players who missed the skins by a little bit to be able to get them For example, getting back to star shelly, I think people who started playing in 2019 should get the ability to buy her for bling

​@@malachi3369then neither is getting a free skin

I think the best thing to do would be making the skins mythic. That way people can only get them with gems, just like the people who had to purchase them without bling. Another option would be giving those who had it before the change got an exclusive pfp or pin. That way they still have something exclusive without the skin being exclusive. Recoloring seems like the popular answer to this problem, bringing the skins back while keeping the exclusive skins in their own thing. My only issue is certain skins, like born bad buzz, are so dependent on their color scheme that recoloring really doesn't seem like an option. Personally, I don't mind the brawlpass, power league, and seasonal skins (lunar, latin league, and winter skins) returning. The gift skins really shouldn't return, as those were only time-based rewards, they have a "you had to be there" type of feeling in my eyes.

Really thankful for a thoughtful, brutally honest player like Kairos who can see all sides of any issue and still provide a really convincing argument.

For power league skins would be cool if when you hit 60 wins you can access to a "Power collection" where you can buy one of the skins have been launched in power league (including the current one) so old players than already own all could keep getting new ones, and new players could have opportunity to get the one they want by hitting 60 wins like all

The reason that I bought Championship Colt, Street Ninja Tara and Heroine Bibi is because it was labeled as “last chance” and “exclusive” so naturally, as a collector I jumped at the opportunity

That what I think too! The solution you came up with is perfect, but I also like the idea the the skins would return the way they are & the OG’s would get a true silver/ Gold glow on their skin to show that they indeed purchase it when it was labeled as Limited. What ever the team decides to do, I’m sure it’s going to be the best solution.

@krizthecookingbeaner2567

You can barely see the gold glow so hell no just keep exclusive skins exclusive it's scummy to change it when they themselves call them exclusive skins

What about adding an item like "permits" or bring tickets back? These would allow the player to play with certain excusive skin for a period of time. When this period is over, the player would have to buy another permit or ticket to play again with that skin. Also, these skins could have a little difference from the original ones, like a little "sticker" stating that they are burrowed, or something like that, basically showing that it is not the original exlusive skin, but it´s still equally cool.

I personally have a few exclusive skins which was out for only a short period of time and colour variations is an awsome idea to mantain exclusivity because everytime i see a star shelly for example, I know he or she is an og player

An authenticity system where you get something, possibly a pin, profile pic or an aura on the skin itself showing that you got this skin before it was brought back would soften the blow a little.

As someone who played the game during beta and had recently come back. I think it’s cool, if I can unlock a skin I missed; but having that exclusivity makes it way more rewarding for those who stayed with the game during the beginning. I personally got star Shelly skin as soon as I could and the fact someone who wasn’t there could get the star Shelly skin is honestly kinda disheartening. It may be selfish; but having been there and getting that skin is honestly something I’m still glad I ended up getting. Not to mention the exclusive skin remodels they released during the holidays. I can understand why most people say yes; but I don’t like it.

Giving an reward to players who have had the skins would be great and this is completely unrelated but a funny way to compensate would be to let the people keep the skins but refund all of them (in gems of course) like brawl pass skins you get 169 gems back which wouldn’t work because of something I’m probably overlooking. Back to the comment the winner doesn’t effect me much and I think this would be the same for the majority of players like I only want trixie Colette but I’m perfectly fine with not getting her since there are other skins that I could use and I haven’t even picked a favorite yet so I might not even use it. Good news to the no’s out there the big people in the community like kairos and lex seem to be skewing the vote since on twitter I think I saw the vote near 60 which would be a no victory since the devs mentioned they would only bring them back if a majority voted in favor and the extremely high yes margin on youtube seems to be shifting as well

I started playing brawl stars about 20 months ago and I also voted no even though I dont beleve I own any of the skins they are talking about. I compleatly agree with your appinion and also home that the dev team comes and watches this video since I think it would provide them with amazing feedback. Love your work and I am glad you did not accept that sponsor. Keep up the great work.

I started playing day 1 of beta and have most skins, and I think your point about honestly is the most important. However, I think most of the OG/pro players who are voting no are doing so for selfish reasons that ultimately aren't good for the health of the player base or supercell and monitization. I think the anniversary skins shouldn't come back, but that all the others should come back, but that they should only be available either for gems or as an in-app purchase--bling should not be able to be used. The color variants idea has merit, but only if those new variant skins are given as a gift to players with the original skins, and I don't think all the skins should get color variants. Saloon 8-bit, for example, is a great skin because the color palette matches the saloon asthetic. Ultimately, I think supercell should bring back most but not exclusive skins, based upon the circumstances of the release of the skin, the level to which the skin was exclusive, and promises made to the player base for the specific skin (ie., not all seasonal, power league, or brawl pass skins should be treated equally), and the redistribution of the formerly exclusive skins should constitute a significant purchase for a player so as to retain some element of exclusivity that will satisfy player wants, hype the community, and also serve supercells monitization scheme.

I think that they should make color swaps of the exclusive skins. For example, swap the pink and loght blue on star shelly. It keeps the same general look of the skin while still making it clear who originally got it. Straight up swapping the colors for different ones may give the skin a completely different feel, which is why I'd opt for jist swapping colors already on the skin's color pallet

As someone who bought corsair colt for it’s exclusivity, seeing it come back really hurt the trust I had in supercell. So I think seasonal skins should atleast get a recolour before being rereleased and be only purchasable with gems (bling didn’t exist back then). However skins like star shelly or any of the anniversary skins should absolutely not come back.

Anniversary skins in addition to star Shelly and other milestone skins like the Bo’s Daryl’s should remain exclusive, but just cool skins like brawl pass skins and virus 8byte should be open. That being said the old brawl pass skins like the gale and surge should remain exclusive because the brawl pass was pretty bad back then

I completely agree with you and your opinion! Funny enough I paused the video to go do something and thought why don’t they just add a re-color for the skins and then bam you said it too! As a player that started during global, is F2P, and still plays, losing the exclusivity of star Shelly is kinda a big deal to me

That colour variation sounds fantastic idea! But let us still have the other colour to so the Non exclusive colour becomes exclusive to the exclusive people. But i feel so bad for the ones who bought the 1st brawlpass and have the gale skin because it is one of the rarest if not the rarest skins in game and now it's just coming back for everyone to get

As a player which downloaded the game a bit after Global, I am ok with not getting Star Shelly, but then I quit and came back in 2021 and I missed out on a lot of brawl pass skins and other skins. So I voted yes, but I wouldn’t mind If they keep Star Shelly exclusive.

I agree with you 100% here. I don’t have every single exclusive skin in the game since I’m usually not that consistent with the game anymore but back when I would give I would buy and grind skins just because they were exclusive and it’s not fair that all of the sudden everyone can just get it now.

Although I'm an og player I have missed the star shelly skin by like a month, which sucks. Yet still I own quite a few exclusive skins, I would love to see some of those skins coming back BUT they have to distinguish them form original exclusive ones (a recolor is a great option, could also be a pop-up stating its original).

My respect for Kairos was already high, but it just got so much higher! I love how he can passionately voice his opinion, but not make it hateful. We need more people with that attribute. I’m proud to be in in the Kairos Time Brawl Stars community.

I believe there can be a middleground. SOME skins can come back, like Power League skins. But pre-season 10 skins are a big no. We spend money on those seasons with the PROMISE they would stay exclusive. Also.. just imagine the backlash Clash Royale would get if they announced this, rereleasing all exclusive emotes and tower skins. People would go MAD!!

Imagine some random fashion clothing company sold you a limited time jacket for a respectable price and said we're only producing a limited amount worldwide and once it sells out it never comes back then just have it come back a couple years later

You are a gift, Kairos. I’m honestly happy people like you exist, especially on this platform

i’ve been watching for a while and playing for a while and you said my thoughts exactly! It’s so many shades of grey that like you said yes and no just wasnt enough. I ended up voting yes for the pole because i’m ok with exclusive skins coming back but i did not feel good about it because it wasn’t a 100% yes? I don’t think ALL exclusive skins should come back and i felt yes conveyed that but then no felt as if i was just opposed to the whole idea in the first place. Like you mentioned i grinded power league skins because they were exclusive but like you i agree it’s ok for them not to be exclusive. Overall you spoke exactly how i was thinking and this is not just black and white. I love the color variation idea though so you see which players have actually been here a long time but still give people who just started the game the same skin

If they do decide to add the exclusive skins, then I hope that the original buyers have some form of special upgrade or that the skins that come back should be bought with gems and gems only (side note I am a free to play player but the second option does solve their revenue)

i didnt hear abt brawl stars untill like 2 months later and for some brawl pass skins i want able to grind much

The thing I hate about this poll is that the number of people who own the skins is outweighed greatly by the number of people who don't which means that the poll was practically rigged from the start P.s.

Maybe they could bring some of the skins back, but the OG skin gets like a glowing halo or a crown or something that represents it originality (this might be better than colour variations because fosho there are gonna be some that look better or worse than the OG one) Also, if they’re gonna bring certain skins back, I really hope that includes pins too. For example I rrl want the belle brawl pass skin but I’d be upset if that didn’t include the pin set too xx

I appreciate this so much, you're right, I bought those skins just cause they're exclusive, I sacrificed my whole gems when I was still a f2p to buy those skins instead of the bp which basically slowed down my progression. It will definitely suck a lot knowing that those decisions I made will turn into regrets knowing that it wasn't worth it because they're bringing it back😔

I own several exclusive skins including Star Shelly and i am very much for them all returning as I hate exclusivity in games and I also wonder if these exclusive skins may end up becoming valuable to account sellers I feel like a recolour would be as close to a perfect solution as we can get, maybe also give those who have the exclusive skins the recolours for free and maybe even a couple of weeks before everyone else. The original owners still have something they can show off but now people can get some version of a skin they really wanted but missed out on it for one reason or another. For example, if they didn't return, nobody would ever be able to get any version of Werewolf Leon, even if they didn't care what colour it was or whether or not it's exclusive. I'd be perfectly fine if these skins were on the more expensive end as well and maybe they could have some kind of permanent long-term quest for the power league skins, quests that are of similarly grindy nature if you want to buy them with bling. Of course, those who had already grinded out those power league wins don't need to do the quest.

I've seen some ideas of giving exclusive pins or sprays, but that doesn't feel the same as a skin. Honestly, would you rather purchase a really cool pin or a good looking skin? Pins just don't hold the same value, especially with very few pin slots

A suggestion i have is to add movement trail to OG skins so say i have star shelly since 2018 when i walk in battle ill have a trail of blue stars following me but someone who just bought it later would just have no trail behind him I have no idea how hard it is to implement but it gives something more to both parties while maintaining the exclusivity promises that were done years ago

I have one big problem with old exclusive skins back, is a possibility that ñ the skins that no longer value their prizes could be with their original, like the first Christmas skins, the nita christmas skin if it release now, it will cost 29 gems or 49 gems, but when the skins was release it cost 149 gems

I completely agree that anniversary skins (like the classic skins) & special occasion skins like Star Shelly & Barb King Bull shouldn't ever come back. I'd be perfectly fine with the Brawl Pass skins & Power League skins coming back. With the Power League skins they could come back but require a quest to unlock the ability to purchase them, just so people who didn't manage to complete enough Power League matches still have to work for them. Maybe a challenge for the Brawl Pass skins. Just something so the skins aren't handed to people on a silver plate who didn't earn them originally. Also why do I have a suspicion the ad you declined was for an IGG game, they are the kings of false advertising.

I was wondering what if they added a community market, to be able to trade your skins with other players for other skins, gems, etc. This would still retain the rarity of these skins as no new copies would be created. Idk though just my thoughts.

I remember i bought rockability mortis when it said it wasnt returning, but then it came back to the shop so that was kind of a bummer.

I think that anniversary skins and Star Shelly shouldn’t come back, and that the players that got the skins when they were sold exclusively should get some kind of marker or emblem somewhere that indicates that. I want to see these skins again, they’re some of my favorites, but I want it to be fair for everyone too.

I agree to almost everything you said but there's one issue. If the bring back recoloured variants of the old skins then there's the chance of the recolour being better than the original. And then it gets to the point were you have to decide on the og or the better looking version. Do you choose the original because you like the feeling of being exclusive or fo you choose the version that looks better, either way its going to feel both negative and positive using both of them.

I used to have old accounts that had star Shelly but then had to delete the game, so I hope they bring some skins back but not all because then old players would not fell special for playing the game earlier

Like why would I buy Captain Carl the rare skin when Dark Tide Carl is right there, or why would I ever want to buy Virus 8 Bit if I can get a cooler version later on for bling anyways. Any copy of a skin or piece of art can damage the original in a negative way

i remember i bought Virus 8-bit at 200 gems , and Heroine Bibi at 150 gems bc of the exclusivity as well, and a few other skins. if i knew knew from the start that they weren't, i would've waited to buy them as well.

I like the idea of having a recolor of the skin, but i feel like this recolor should be given to people with the og skin rather than a new color for people didnt have the og. Either that, or reimbursing a portion of the gems in bling or gems would be 10000% good imo, even if its only half or less
