February 2026 Brawl Talk: New Trophy System, 100th Brawler, Major Update Unveiled
February 2026 brings exciting updates to Brawl Stars, highlighted by the unveiling of the 100th Brawler, Sirius, and a revamped Trophy system.
Introduction of New Brawlers
Sirius, classified as an Ultra Legendary Brawler, marks a significant milestone as the 100th addition to the game. With a unique villain-themed playstyle, he controls shadows of defeated enemies.
His main attack is a dual projectile called Shadow Strike, while his secondary attack, Star Bomb, delivers area damage. Once charged, Sirius can summon up to three shadow versions of defeated foes, which attack and can be directed to specific targets.
Najia: A New Mythic Damage Dealer
Joining the roster on March 20, 2026, is Najia, a Mythic Brawler. Her primary attack features a jar that releases venomous snakes, inflicting poison over time. Her Super, known as Danger Noodle, sends out three paper snakes, affecting all enemies in a targeted area.
Game Mode Updates
Several game modes are receiving enhancements:
- Treasure Hunt: Returns with notable improvements.
- Samurai Smash: Introduces Team vs. Team battles against Brawler Shadows.
- Loaded Showdown: Mystery boxes replace power-up boxes, offering unique items like bombs and bumper cars.
New modifiers such as a projectile-stopping effect and a moving sandstorm inspired by Sandy are also being added.
Overhaul of the Trophy System
One of the most significant changes in this update is the introduction of the Prestige Trophy system. This new framework removes seasonal resets and allows players to earn rewards from Trophies ranging from 0 to 1000.
- At 250 Trophies, players receive Player Icons and Sprays.
- A 29-Gem Skin is awarded at 750 Trophies.
- A Gold Brawler Title, Rocket, is given at 1000 Trophies.
Reaching 1000 Trophies unlocks Prestige 1, preventing players from dropping below that threshold. Prestige Trophies contribute to progression along the Trophy Road.
Matchmaking Enhancements
The matchmaking system also undergoes a rework, utilizing a hidden MMR based on skill rather than just Trophy count. This change ensures that players at higher levels face appropriate opponents.
Additional Features and Skins
February’s update includes:
- Rush Events, offering time-sensitive opportunities for extra rewards.
- New Hypercharges like Pierce – Second Wave, and Glowbert – You Need a Friend.
- A range of new skins, including variations from the Sands of Time and Dragons and Faeries series.
Conclusion
The February 2026 update promises to enhance the Brawl Stars experience with new characters, revamped systems, and exciting game modes. Players can look forward to a fresh take on rewards and gameplay dynamics.
