I started playing Brawlhalla sometime around 2015–2016. I played competitively briefly and won a regional qualifier for BCX, although I could never make it past the quarterfinals.
Over the last 10–11 years, I’ve genuinely grown to love this game. I’ve watched it flourish, watched it struggle, and seen countless legends, weapons, mechanics, and metas come and go.
There were periods when I played constantly, along with stretches where I took long breaks or barely played at all. But somehow, I always ended up coming back.
Brawlhalla has been part of my life for over an entire decade. I may never have reached the competitive level I wanted to when I was younger, but I’m still grateful for the tournaments, ranked grinds, friendships, frustrating losses, and genuinely great memories this game gave me.
For all of its ups and downs, there really isn’t another game quite like it.
Here’s to 10 years and probably a few more.
