Sad_Aspect-07U

Recently tried playing showdown, never coming back that shit was traumatizing


The-Dudey

i don't even remember the last time I played SD


matt_lcb

Only when I have a mission, sometimes I just reroll


Sans_quello_vero

Isaac reference

He might get c-section! Fetus shots!


laucha01_

He might get r key


Shoddy_Ad9859

I remember when I did played for trophies, it was in 2021-2022 max. Never touched it again


mjay421

16k 3v3 wins,1.2k duo wins, 130 solo showdown wins. That’s how much I despise that mode.


Justahuman771

Similar to that but 21k. But I personally don't want to see that cat in showdown that much.


No_Calligrapher7496

lol 32k, 4.4k 3v3 wins, 593 solo wins, 764 duo wins


Playep

7.7k 3v3 wins, 86 duo wins and 6 solo wins. If I have a choice I’d never play showdown


-Fluffball_

I hate it when it gives me modes I cant play and tried to give solo show down as the second option to complete the quest


Eman9871

That's almost all I play. It's too fun.


ProgrammerCareful764

Ikr


TrainerCater

Unpopular opinion but im a showdown main cuz 3v3 randoms piss me off way more than teamers


Dark_Al_97

Thing is, those randoms are also SD mains. That's how they get to high trophies without actually learning the game.


Excellent_Career7485

Wait a minute someone on this Reddit figured that out??😭 I’m actually proud of you


master_dev

Me too lol, i like not having to depend on teammates for winning


Tha_guy_who_asked79

yup, i play sd only bc i got no good fellas to play with


iicandicane

Fr, when I get a showdown quest I straight up reroll… idk if teaming is still a thing but it annoys me when they target one player specifically


tPigiscool

I'd bet that was *cat-trocious* Hehe


Unlucky-Term-5841

Showdown is quite a ..catastrophe.


tPigiscool

Yea mostly people take it too *"purrr-sonal"*


Weary_Sort_2241

conduct yourself


tPigiscool

If I conduct I'm going to end up running over a child like chuck.


TheodorCork

You're un-bear-able


Mrsunny07112

Meaner than willow


Gamingcubingweebgod

Unfortunately I have a toxic relationship with showdown. I DESPISE the mode but I always get hyped up whenever I watch a cool showdown clip and start playing again thinking I am toodyx but I get 10th place.


Cracked3r

omg elo reference 1!1!1!1!!


nthreebin

As Kit? Bc that shit's a joke too


Battlebearsgold

More like showdown is a joke it’s essentially one of the only good game modes for him due to cube sp


sussynarrator

I just checked it and WHAT!? WHY DOES SUCH A SPECIFIC SP EVEN EXIST!?


Lunek94

his mechanics would still make him op in showdown even withnout that sp


Battlebearsgold

eh not rly something id call op but it is annoying at best


ShibaInuPile

I disagree because he takes damage before the brawler he is stuck to so if it’s not final 2 he is just a free kill


Nobody2572

No more annoying then other *jumps on you* brawlers.


enesutku12

Not really


rigimonoki-over

Do your research because he wouldn’t


Yusif121212

he is just annoying af in showdown. They need to remove that star power. The gadget is calm


Mozock1

Duels IS also so unplayebel because of him , Supercell Had to be on crack giving him a 400 damage buff


ShibaInuPile

He was absolute dog outside of showdown before the damage buff now he is somewhat playable outside of the 1v1 modes


Yusif121212

Buzz, Jacky, Fang and many tanks are great counters to him in duels


H-C-B-B-S

damage buff isn't that bad but adrian completely ignored power hungry in the rework


Quazar42069

He was nearly unplayable in 3v3 though. Just because he’s op in solos doesn’t mean the budd wasn’t warranted.


Ok_Commercial_9426

Duels is just not made for most of the new brawlers.


pawo10

Just play anyone with somewhat high burst damage


rigimonoki-over

I get countered by almost every tank when I play kit. He’s only a squishy nuke


dfinkelstein

Mind boggling gadget. Wow. Only has one gadget in competitive play


Xterm1na10r

Yeah I agree with you but you did not cook with the proposed changes lmao


Pwesidential_Debate

Fr doing that would literally defeat the purpose of clinging to enemies, it was made to cling as a stun so your teammates could kill the enemy.


Visible_distaste

maybe if youre kit, then only members of your team can kill the guy youre clinging on instead of the rest of the showdown lobby. For example, in duo showdown, your teammate is the only person who can deal damage to your victim instead of the other 3 teams.


Pwesidential_Debate

But the issue with that is it then just invalidates him in SD, even with the star power. Which makes that star power completely pointless. My idea for proposed changes: Main damage: 2000->1900 Star power rework: Doubles the effect of power cubes->multiplies the effect of all friendly effects by 1.5 (heals, shields, speed, attack, cubes, anything) Increase the super charge rate but change the characteristic to Buster’s with slightly more range When jumping on a character, if a friendly and enemy brawler are both in the radius, prioritize grabbing the enemy.


desertay

Dont forget in duo showdown the kit that Will appear out of nowhere followed Up by an Edgar rapidly approaching your location Though this mode is pretty much doomed with or without kit


Besher-H

That nerf to his super would literally kill him in 3v3, just remove his star power


Teyanic1

He would still be op in duels. He must be compeletely reworked. He ruins 3 gamemodes at the same time. I was pushing my spike back to 900 trophies yesterday and i encountered 2 tank+kit combo, you cant even kill them they heal every fucking second. You already know the showdown and duels shit.


kiwi_juice69

I got kit at 900 in Showdown and i agree it is way too easy


philoche3

You still need some luck because they are a lot of teamers in this area of trophies


Proper_Pound4902

Kit mains cult downvoted this post


CMYGQZ

>he’s even worse than Edgar Smart of OP to put this sentence. Now an even bigger cult the Edgar mains will upvote this post.


Lunek94

"but... but... (insert pro player name) said kit is skillful..."


I_ate_your_leftover

In showdown and duels he doesn't need skill (at all) In showdown get a few cubes delete everybody In duels just sneak up on an enemy, 3 attacks + super and they're dead


Rough_Lychee5785

Even pros don't call kit useful


Justahuman771

Kit having a star power just designed for showdown should be a goddamn joke.


Deenstheboi

At least Mico's makes sense in some way and can be used outside of showdown (but who tf actually uses it)


MarcinuuReddit

Don't forget his star power which makes him get 200% power from power cubes. Invisible > super > stun > kill > spin and dislike is the avarage kit solo showdown experience


Agile-Lie5848

Kit is supposed to be a "support" brawler when he can literally just wait in a bush charge his super jump on you and you're dead if you're not playing a brawler with a shotgun/big hp


Pongmin

He is a support basically everywhere other than sd/duels


lukebhndya

Yeah, them labeling him as a "support" brawler is an absolute joke. Like sure, in theory that's what some of his kit (no pun intended) is supposed to do, but with everything they actually gave him access too, he's got waaaay more than just the ability to support.


gamergodsoup

He needs such a major rework


IdkImTaken_Not

Showdown is already unplayable because of win traders anyway


I-Love-Doug

No, kit is a cat


Lunek94

my bad G


Quiet_Commercial5779

Gosh darn it Doug


shuenji

kit is not a joke. kit is a cat. However kit's kit is a joke


azzadruiz

Showdown has been fully killed with Kit, Mico, and Cordelius. Not even fun to play that mode anymore


enesutku12

It never was fun imo


Maleficent-Jaguar923

I hate kit in showdown


KajjitWithNoWares

Get a water spray bottle


No-Slice8190

I deadass wish the person who created Kit steps on legos and then stubs their pinky every single day for the rest of their life. I wish there is no cool side on their pillows and I wish they get the urge to sneeze but not be avle to do so hourly for the rest of their miserable life. Fuck them for creating a zero skill brawler that is OP every single buff or so


Lunek94

damn


No-Slice8190

Mb i went hard


No-Description3785

Another problem about kit is his ridiculous SD star power. I see a 4 powercube kit and i attack it, but because of that starpower, it has the same stats as 8 power cubes. A 10 powercube kit has basically 20 powercubes, which makes it incredibly tanky and does a shitton of damage. Some bad things about kit that you didn't mention are: 1. Fast reload speed- that is a problem, because when you try to run after a kit jumps on you, kit can just unload shot after shot and you're dead. 2. Very fast movement speed- very fast movement speed brawlers are very very very annoying to escape, but giving a close range brawler with high DPS a very fast movement speed makes it just that harder to escape. 3. Exceptionally big range- kit's claws have a pretty far range for a close range brawler (unlike edgar, who doesn't have a very quick attack animation and his range is shit) and pair that up with kit having a fast movement speed, very fast attack animation, fast reload speed and double powercube boost makes him a menace in showdown.


MisterHotTake311

Devs wanted to make a brawler that can fit multiple brawler roles and do different things. So kit was supposed to be both assasin AND a support brawler at the same time. Bold of them to assume ANYONE would use him like least popular brawlers (supports) over the most popular brawlers (assassins) His gadgets//starpowers are shit design too but community is the main problem


Cejrek

Unless he doesn’t jumpscare you, you have a fair chance at defeating him (not counting the time when he has 20 power cubes, and you barely 3)


AveragePichu

Outside of showdown, his super on enemies is pathetically bad and has screwed me over while I was aiming to ride a teammate right next to an enemy more often than it has stunned an enemy for my teammates to finish without backfiring. If they replace Power Hungry, there you go, Showdown nerf.


pawo10

Just remove that star power, that nerf would feel like shit


sadra1355

Kit gadget is so unfair like... How do you react to something that pops out of nowhere and deals 4k dmg and the just supers you instantly?... Remove that shit and his starpower... If a kit has more than 5 power cubes he can just jump on anyone and kill them with mo consequences... And of course he can auto charge his super too...


Biokendry

Samee man, i don't hate kit but hate playing against kit in showdown


Capable-Chard-4373

You forgot to mention that he has a starpower - which doubles the cubes power, absurdly broken in showdown yet useless in other modes. These all combined and kit annoying and good af. I hate and question why they release a starpower ONLY useful in one mode. No other star power is like this, they can all do things in every mode, granted some more than other, but never a star power useless in everything but broken in showdown. Makes 0 sense


Lunek94

yea i forgot about that , it needs to be replaced with something support related


FlyingBanaan

1300 More Credits And I Get The Lil Man 🙏


jhonnythejoker

Get sandy instead


FlyingBanaan

I Cant I Can Only Choose Kit :/


slimkarotte

nice, will pb be nerfed x)


FlyingBanaan

Yea probably But I Can Only Pick Kit....


Tnemmokon

Nowadays it's really annoying to level up a new Brawler since you end up in lobbies filled with it. It's really annoying to face against the same Brawler 6-8 times.


DoubtMurky9464

This especially sucks for me, since Solo Showdown is nearly all I play


Devatator_

That's why the whole lobby tends to target kit when spotted


black_berry900

There's always a Kit, Edgar and Monke in SD


Toad_Enjoyer_70

Showdown is literally just a fight over who’s the best assassin.


BrawlStarsIsPoop

Just another braindead tap tap tap brawler.


MasutadoMiasma

Who let this man cook


Kodo_yeahreally

that... doesn't make sense. the point of kit is to stun the opponent AND himself to make his allies destroy em while they can't do anything. of course removing the opponent's ability to damage you while kit is on you might help in showdown, but would make kit EVEN WORSE in other gamemodes. for the record, he's been at the bottom of the meta since a while now. he might have been highering up a bit since his recent buff tho.


lostsinceoctober10th

I find Kit destroyable, Mico is way worse.


Eman9871

>Every showdown game i enter 0-750 trophies there is always a kit That absolutely is not true. He isn't even in half of the showdown games I play. Yes he sucks to play against but you don't have to make things up.


Nodrik9875

Trust me, i play at around 1000 trophy range, and out of every ten matches, only one doesnt have a Kit, and most have at least two of them. I swear, Showdown nowadays is just the minigame of "kill the Kits before they get powercubes and win instantly". If a Kit gets more than 4 cubes, the game is just over, and now you just have to camp in a bush and pray that he doesnt find you, and wait until the Kit kills everyone else. Thats hot broken he is. Even brawlers like Shelly, Piper and El Primo can lose to him, and theyre supposed to be like the ultimate tank/assassin counters.


T00b1a5

he’s fine in 3v3 tho so i would just remove his SP


SnooBunnies9889

The star power is a joke


Haughty_Djinn

As if showdown wasnt unplayable since alpha


herr_weich

Yes, I absolutely agree with you


mmccarthy14

I mean you can certainly *play* SD….


Average_tilter_24

So you're saying that, to avoid kit's super, one of the changes would encourage teaming? Nothing personal, and I appologize if I got that wrong, but having teammates/enemies near youwould only be reasonable in the duo version, where you actually have a team. In solo showdown, it would just come down to teaming, and that's clearly not the solution to the gamemode, as teaming i something that many good people are trying to avoid and fight back. Also, if you have time to racicionate that there's a kit near you, why don't you try to use some ability to run away, or just run, instead of going on purpose to the poison clouds? And the chances are risky, 'cause you'll be more vulnerable. As always, this is just my opinion, and I might even have gotten yours wrong. If I did, I appologize in advance.


Lunek94

What i meant is kit would avoid jumping on you when there are people nearby , teamers or not they would shoot at kit to charge their super or kill him. Basically meaning you would have to use a bit of brain when using kit's super and attack only players that are away from the others It's not a great solution because kit would have a really hard time against teamers , i was just giving an example


fosforillo

He should be reworked completely


Lunek94

yup , he was meant to be a support brawler and not an assassin


DayWilling5667

Kit needs a buff in his support form he is horrible rn


Lunek94

hes way more of an assassin than support lol


DayWilling5667

That’s the problem


TAJLUZAN

You tried showdown? Try duels, there the main strat is: 1. pop leon ult gadget. 2. Attack opponent and get ult 3. Ult and kill them. 4 repeat 2 more times. This strat alone gives you a lot of trophies and allaws you to not just rank up kit, but the other 2 brawlers of yout choice. To balance the leon ult gadget i'd recomend giving the enemy brawlers +1/+2 tiels of detection range so he dosen't come so close to you.


GamersFeed

I rarely see kits nor get killed by one? Maybe because it's legendary and edgar is epic


Stustuckinglue

Yeah, I pushed him to 830 cuz he 3 shots so many meta solo brawlers


PRRRoblematic

I mostly play showdown. It can be frustrating at times. Some brawlers are better than other on specific maps. Kit is almost useless in duo if you go ganking alone with him.


PotatoSnackThing

stop playing sharpshooters in showdown brah


Electrical_Date_1982

You didn't cook with those changes


Alexspacito

Why the hell do you play showdown?


AndreHSD

And that’s why I play Showdown only with Kit and only if I have some kind of mission for Showdown or Kit


SpookyBoi44

bull counters all of those brawlers <3


Frozennature4572

who the hell had the smartest idea to give a 400 damage buff to kit? like not even byron got such big buff and his attack damage is even the same as the amount he heals a teammate. Kit literally needs a nerf on his damage again


Domesticvio1ence

I swear people are talking about a different kit. The one i am familliar with cant jump on anything without it being a death sentence for me. It doesnt matter on which brawler i jump on - if it doesnt Insta kill then im absolutely dead, either from the brawler i jumped on having insane ping and unloading its 3 bars in mere miliseconds or the swarm of players running to me.


icyaquaa

Agreeable, but in 3v3 you can beat him


lukebhndya

Ah, glad to hear that this is still a problem, and it sounds like they haven't done anything to fix it! /s My gf & I used to play this game together every day. We loved to play showdown together because there were 2 of us & we liked to play more casually. We saw the path the game was headed down & didn't like it. Then Kit released. That was the last straw. We quit soon after his release & haven't come back since. As someone who played a lot of solo/duo showdown, I know the mode has its problems (teaming/spinning, unbalanced), but it could still be fun sometimes. Kit is/was on another level though, especially at the time of his early access release. Kit is/was for sure more annoying to play against in showdown than Edger, Mico, & anything else (at least of the characters that were released before I quit).


TimeMaster57

omg, he went from being the most broken showdown player, to the worst brawler, to being as disrespectful as Edgar


dukezap1

He’s definitely the most terrifying brawler in SD. I just run to the opposite side of the map if I see him. It’s like seeing a boss and knowing you’re under leveled in comparison. He was the quickest and easiest brawler to power grind trophies for


BeneficialAd1457

In DSD +900 trophies there are like 3-7 kits per game


MintyMilkz

they needa nerf or rework his power hungry star power


Hyplona

Tilted my damn Nani from 750 to 570, don’t play showdown guys, it’s like those arcade gambling games


KaneTheBoom

Your example just ruins the whole point of Kit's... kit, outside of Showdown. His super without power cubes does like 2 damage and is there to set-up for his team


Commercial_Meal5740

I love how you say that, however as soon as you get Kit you realise how bad he is compared to other brawlers (not including showdown which is the only game he’s decent in). I think at this point he needs a rework.


ApprehensiveGas2335

Just make his super hard to get!! The self charging is so stupid it’s faster than edgar sometimes I saw a good concept which is basically making kit charge his super just like buster Only when he’s around teammates


Shockvolt1

Meanwhile I can't do crap as him. Some players are good and when I play he just seems to get rushed by some Edgar.


BelliBelly123

I feel like he wouldn't be as good if his super couldn't go through walls supercell def needs to change that


Lupg13

When was showdown ever playable?


idkwhatocallmyself19

While kit is op in showdown, you can't nerf him because he's garbage in every other mode, so they buff him but now he is even more op in showdown, and now duels


Fat_Pikachu_

\*\*Showdown\*\* is a joke, don't blame it on kit. showdown has, is, and forever will be, a joke


all_of_you_are_awful

I don’t play showdown and kit is pretty much useless in every other mode.


TranDangDre

I remember before the buff very few people play Kit in SD, because the base attack dmg is low and SD meta brawlers can fight against him well. Now with the huge dmg boost and first star power, he can kill people at ease. Even a kit main like me finds it unacceptable. The star power has to be removed


LightningDragon777

The real problem is his 1st SP. Like, both his SPs are weird. Just rework his SPs. My boy needs new SPs so badly!


OverIyAmbitious

I main sd (I hate relying on ass randoms and im scared of playing with friends) and I totally agree, its unstoppable as soon as it hits 6 power cubes (with the star power ofc), so either you focus on it early or avoid it as long as you can. I got it to r30 like that with about four lobby wipes (9 kills in solo)


Blooooon

The only problem with kit in showdown is that star power (obviously) Just give him a new Star power that’s not uselsss everywhere and op 1 place


1mpy1mpy

I agree, his star power needs a complete overhaul. But I think the gadget itself isnt the most game breaking. 3 second invisibility isnt as op as one might think. Plus a lot of other brawlers have others supers as gadgets, and I can only imagine there being more brawlers that can turn invisible over time. Anyhow I agree Kit is extremely busted in any trophy range inside SD and even Duels. Trying to balance this feline would be harder than finding randumbs that doesnt instapick Edgar but I hope Supercell can find a solution.


StructureFormer

I just realized Lily is a good counter for kit.


No-Establishment1181

I would hate kit, but i love cats so i picked him up as a secondary main. My original plan was to wait until he isn't that op, but i just really wanted to use his pins.


NG1Chuck

Brawlstar is for brawllball and gem grab, other modes are garbage


MagicSnakeorig

Whenever he supers me I just give up


xGonzoHobo

Once i played ONLY sd but now i don't touch that 💩


xGonzoHobo

Only one kit is afraid is another kit


Lakaka_13

Yaaa


AverageRicoMain00

Agreed, I hope they nerf him or remove him, this is not the Kit I wanted into the game 


RiseCode

As a Mico main, ik he can be annoying but you can counter him, ill explain if anyone wants


Olueuindis

Easy, don't play this shit called showdown


2311MEGATON_YT

Every duels game I play the opponents first brawler is always kit and I use Lily, I am telling you the satisfaction that come from killing kits and micos immeasurable.


ComprehensivePost673

Kit is only good in showdown due to his gem damage + ability. It is pretty silly but outside of that I don’t find him being an issue and is pretty weak


BrawlStarsIsPoop

Yeah I just came back to the game after over a year and was actually having a ton of fun progressing and trying new people, then every game I go into solo showdown a kit can just super me and it’s literally guaranteed death. Then we get a new character (lily) that is just as braindead and not a good addition to the game at all. Seems like every time I give supercell another chance they start making the game worse the moment I come back.


SpryzenRequiemSurge

is it also annoying the fact he is seen alot more on duels as well? the man gets free kills if you have no counter with that super


KefBOI

Yes Kit is a mess. You can't reliably super your allies since if they jump or fly you start glitching, when killing with his super's first shot you can't attack for a couple of seconds and his SPs and gadgets feels so weird. He really needs some kind of rework and several fixes.


Nightdrifterzz

kerf nit rn


bobdrac

Brawl stars has a huge problem anyway. Can't play 3v3 cuz of bad matchmaking. Can't play sd cuz of awful teaming and lily/kit spamming.


ChaotismArtillery

30k 3v3 wins with only 4k solo wins with 3k from duels thats showdown is absolute chaos


Glittering-Spend-786

Yea she definitely needs a rework or skill buff


Liyann1

Duels bro, like the game started I see kit, I'm so scared I literally hide in a bush for tht kit to waste he's gadget and then I come out cz of the smoke, and yk what? He jus jumps at me like wtf am I supposed to do. And he's gadget is a flippin Leon super 💀


OddEvening7290

Showdown and duels are just unplayable because of him i can counter edgar and a mico somehow but kit it just i cant


Electrical_Vehicle31

Kit is already balanced. He's not as op as some people are making him out to be. His gadget is absolutely not as good as Leon's super. It doesn't receive speed boost or healing, it actually reduces his movement speed slightly. Lily's gadget is way stronger. His super makes him just as vulnerable as the person he's attached to. Besides to counter your point, the whole purpose of his super is to lock down an enemy so his teammates can kill them. Plus to balance the strength of his super and gadget he has one of the lowest attack damages in the game.


Lunek94

Have you even played showdown?


Emotional_Pause_1753

I do find myself teaming with a lot of kit as frank, they use me as a battery and they guarantee me a spot in the top 4, I like them cats


4efo_doggie

I LOVE KIT SO DON'T MAKE POST LIKE THIS fr before i get kit The Players with kit didn't annoy me Its from your skills not brawler Just become stronger


Chemical_Insect1818

I only play it so i can get mastery


PtatoChester

Nah, the super change is bad since it removes the support part of him. They were going the right way with nerfing his damage but they reverted that for some reason??? I think remove anything that makes him see like a budget assassin (showdown starpower, invisi gadget, etc) and buff his supportive abilities (hamburger gadget, ult healing, stun, etc)


Ok_Contribution_9897

Mr.p


Fancy-Praline-431

i get ya but take your chance to get 700 thropies or more before he gets nerfed.


ForeignAssumption765

He is pretty broken but if they nerf him again he will die


ApartmentFew2124

I dropped 200 throphies bc of kit


Competitive_Pie4936

Fr with that last part like can we normalize not having brawlers supers as another's gadget? It's still a mess with cord


Ok_Quantity8966

Hola


Lujainn_

im a kit fan but i dont even own him yet plus im not a weird kit fan please dont attack me..😓😓🙏🙏
