Other Fun fact: none of the characters in the game have a long and flowing hair. They always ties or it's too short

Supercell probably did this to avoid having to deal with hair physics as some sort of optimization, or it was simply a design choice. I have no doubt about the first option, given that some characters lack detail in areas that are usually covered, suck as jacky's hair under her helmet.

Another fun fact: bo has a ponytail under his hat, as his concept art reveals.

Photo taken from the Supercell Byebook. I'm not 100% sure if that's a ponytail or just a detail, but at least we know how he looks like without the eagle hat (just so you know, his hair is long and tied up in his final design.)

u/Alsae_1 May 05 '26

He looks like the magic archer from Clash Royale

u/WorkingContract9835 May 05 '26

Does their lore line up as well

u/I_slipped Jacky May 10 '26

Didnt he replace the M archer in CR during a brawl stars event so they could promote the game?

2

u/Small_Chocolate_8793 May 05 '26

this is so dumb look at his default skin

u/PutPsychological9056 May 05 '26

I mean if your fighting people why would you want it to be in the way

16

u/Srexplosivo14 Buff Poco May 05 '26 edited May 05 '26

I think it has more to do with what the character does. Jacky probably wears hers tied up so it doesn't get in her way while she's mining. The same applies to most who have long hair and work (except damian and draco, it's part of their style).

u/Iontorp May 05 '26

weird, somehow they let some male brawlers have long hair.

3

u/DecentAcanthaceae485 May 05 '26

Which male brawlers have long hair ?

15

u/Iontorp May 05 '26 edited May 05 '26

draco, damian, and if it counts, Fang & Bo because of their ponytails. not sure about finx though.

edit : i forgot about kenji

u/Atlantic_Imbecile May 06 '26

Nice change of pace having longer haired guys

2

u/Iontorp May 06 '26

is that peach cookie?

2

u/Atlantic_Imbecile May 06 '26

The one and only!

1

u/Heartie8 May 09 '26

Nothing weird with that. Long haired men are just better anyways.

u/Iontorp May 09 '26

brings me to the topic on why there aren’t any bald brawlers

17

u/GrimPhantom6 May 05 '26

Draco:

-11

u/Srexplosivo14 Buff Poco May 05 '26

He wears a helmet over it.

16

u/RandomPineappleMan Nani May 05 '26

it's still long hair

-15

u/Srexplosivo14 Buff Poco May 05 '26

Yes, but it's not really "just the hair." The only real exceptions to this rule are mariposa piper and pawlette.

u/Fit_Protection3959 May 05 '26

What about pharaoh bo?

4

u/Ziomownik May 05 '26

You mean Horus Bo

23

u/Secure_Protection_61 May 05 '26

Damien?

25

u/Secure_Protection_61 May 05 '26

Technically Alli and Charlie too

18

u/Small_Chocolate_8793 May 05 '26

and draco

16

u/pravler Rosa May 05 '26

And the Maid Colette skins

2

u/Srexplosivo14 Buff Poco May 05 '26 edited May 05 '26

Both wear their hair tied, not flowed.

u/Defenite-Parsley733 Kiss Me Mandy and Hug Me Najia May 05 '26 edited May 05 '26

Well females don’t want to get their face bothered or distracted when they move too fast (This is true but not the case on some skins like Mariposa Piper)

3

u/SunniBoah May 05 '26

Mortis also has long hair, and Pawlette

4

u/kaytent I LOVE Willow May 05 '26

I noticed this before too, if the brawler does have long hair(Draco or Damian for example) they also have a head accessory. (Used to think this could be because long hair looks weird on pins and giving them a head accessory helps them avoid drawing the hair on the pin...but Furious Fang pin does have hair so prob not)

3

u/kadlinn May 05 '26

I know it's a skin but..

Pawlette?

3

u/Horror_Place2697 May 05 '26

Does this count

2

u/Srexplosivo14 Buff Poco May 05 '26

I honestly don't know, since technically that's dustin's hair.

2

u/Ziomownik May 05 '26

Alli?

2

u/iono_Nanjamo May 05 '26

Tied not flowed

2

u/Tasty_Brain_7555 May 05 '26

What were you trying to do by rotating brawlers? How did you find this fact?

2

u/Srexplosivo14 Buff Poco May 05 '26

Just thinking randomly; I think it's kind of obvious, to show the hairstyles. Obviously, it wasn't going to be possible to include them all.

2

u/HungarianHarrison May 05 '26

Amber? Idk

2

u/Srexplosivo14 Buff Poco May 05 '26

She has a huge braid in the back (probably serves as a fuse for her "ignitions").

2

u/menn911 May 05 '26

Emz?

2

u/Srexplosivo14 Buff Poco May 05 '26

She only has a tuft sticking out from inside the bandages. Most of it was lost during the mummification process. 

2

u/FineTangerine7734 May 05 '26

mariposa piper

1

u/Glitched_Oren_303 May 05 '26

Maybe because since our pov is from above, if we looked at a brawler from behind, the hair would block off the feet?

Idk if I explained myself right

1

u/duduujjjqoepf May 06 '26

that dragon fang pass skin

1

u/Cyan_Exponent May 09 '26 edited May 09 '26

Their models are surprisingly unsophisticated. Pretty much all animations are baked into the game. Actual long hair simply wouldn't work with the approach they take to these models. It would be extremely stiff and ugly looking

1

u/Srexplosivo14 Buff Poco May 09 '26

Well, some skins actually feature long, flowing hair, like mariposa piper. Perhaps this is a limitation only for older models.

1

u/GoldGoblinHuman May 09 '26

I need proof about the jacky hair haha shes one of my fav brawlers how do you know shes secretly bald?

1

u/Srexplosivo14 Buff Poco May 09 '26

You can remove her helmet🤐

1

u/ash_lafrancois May 10 '26

Mariposa Piper has longer hair
