Brawlhalla Patch 9.10 Introduces Ascended Wu Shang and Faction Skirmishes
Brawlhalla Patch 9.10 launches Wu Shang's Ascension alongside the Light vs. Shadow Skirmish event, global RGB color unlocks, new adidas collaboration items, and sweeping weapon balance adjustments.
Brawlhalla Patch 9.10 brings a massive content drop headlined by Ascended Wu Shang, a two-week Faction Skirmish event, custom trail selectors, and extensive balance changes across nearly every weapon.
Ascended Wu Shang and Customization
Wu Shang joins Nix as the second Legend to receive the Ascended treatment. The Mythic Skin features custom qi visual FX, sound swaps, a custom lock-in animation, splash art, floating dash animations with Gauntlets, the Echoes of Balance Trail Effect, and companion items including Jinyin the Sidekick and Yunyun's Protection KO effect. Additionally, a new Accessories tab in Mallhalla lets players equip Trail Effects on any Legend or skin, accompanied by new options like Surt's Wrath and Flames of Muspelheim. RGB Colors are now available via random rolls or an All-Legends unlock scheme.
Light vs. Shadow Skirmish Event
The two-week Skirmish pits Light against Shadow. Players earn Influence for their chosen faction across all online game modes, with random multipliers applied during Skirmish Battles in Ranked matches. Rewards include exclusive tiered Titles, animated avatars for winning faction members, and a matching color scheme for earned titles.
Collaborations and Quality of Life
The official adidas partnership expands with the Red Raptor skin featuring Dame X Battle Boots and an Alley-oop Orb skin, alongside returning Forum Mid items. Quality-of-life updates include an Event Center tab for tracking Skirmish progress, a direct equip button for pop-ups, and the World's End Kung Foot map set in Jotunn Winter. Double Gold and Double XP weekends run for the first two weeks.
Weapon Balance Adjustments
Patch 9.10 aims to narrow the damage range across weapons. Axe Recovery force and Down Air movement are reduced. Battle Boots see increased Neutral Light and Neutral Air damage, paired with longer recovery on missed Side Lights. Blasters Side Light loses stun for increased damage. Bow adjustments tweak arrow threat coverage while boosting Neutral Light. Cannon Down Light damage drops, while Neutral Air force increases. Hammer damage drops across multiple attacks, while Katars see damage increases on light and down attacks. Orb recovery frames increase, Rocket Lance end-stun rises slightly on Neutral Air, Scythe active input damage decreases with higher recovery on neutral light, and Unarmed damage drops.
Legend Signature Tweaks
Azoth's Down Bow features a shorter minimum charge time. Kaya's Side and Down Bow force are reduced, with increased charge time on Side Bow. Ragnir's Down Axe force increases. Ransom receives his first tournament-legal balance pass, shifting damage to the final explosion on Neutral Chakram while lowering force and increasing recovery on Side Chakram. Red Raptor, Reno, Teros, Vector, and Vivi also see targeted adjustments to signature force, recovery frames, and damage distribution.
Why this patch matters
Patch 9.10 delivers substantial cosmetic updates alongside a wide-ranging balance pass that normalizes weapon damage outputs and tightens recovery windows.
