'''''Brawl+''''' is a gameplay [[mod]] designed to make ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]'' more competitive. Among the first gameplay [[mod]]s released to the public, ''Brawl+'' attained some niche appeal amongst the ''Smash'' community due to its gameplay changes. However, as the first mod of ''Brawl'' to undo many of the game's changes to more closely match ''Melee'', ''Brawl+'' was frequently controversial amongst smashers, primarily over what the mod's intentions were, with a number of critics referring to the game as "''Melee'' 2.0". ''Brawl+'s'' own staff also reportedly became antagonistic with one another due to the lack of a defined goal for the mod.


Despite the controversy surrounding the mod, ''Brawl+'' was the first gameplay mod of ''Brawl'' to develop its own tournament scene, and it was featured as a side event at some tournaments, such as [[Apex 2010]] and [[S.N.E.S.]]
'''Brawl+''' is a working project designed to make various aspects of ''[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]'' more competitive. It no longer requires specific software to be installed to the [[Wii]]. More information can be found at [http://brawlplus.net The Official Brawl+ Site] at BrawlPlus.net. Some members of the Brawl+ community have hosted tournaments using versions of the engine, though Brawl+ hacks are not considered legal for standard Brawl tourneys.
 
''Brawl+'s'' last release, version 7.0.3, was released in 2010, with most of its staff having moved onto the development of ''Brawl+'s'' spiritual successor, ''[[Project M]]''. As such, development of ''Brawl+'' is ceased, and no new releases of it are expected. In the present, ''Brawl+'' is mostly viewed as a curiosity for players who want to see how the ''Brawl'' hacking scene started.

In older versions of Brawl+, the Online Practice Stage was loaded whenever [[New Pork City]] was selected, and in even older versions (Genesis build) the Online Practice Stage was fully selectable as a stand-alone stage.

===Gameplay tweaks===
*Character modifications with the intent of balancing. For example, {{SSBB|Captain Falcon}} has been significantly improved.
*Faster overall gameplay speed, largely due to reduced lag and sped-up attack frames
*Increased [[falling speed]] for most characters
*Increased fast-falling speed for most characters
*Increased [[hitstun]], allowing for truly inescapable [[combo]]s, and more comboing potential in general
*[[Tech]] window enlarged, making for easier teching
*Faster techrolls
*Fixes grab release problems. No more grab release problems afflicting characters such as Wario, Ness, and Lucas.
*[[Perfect shield]] window decreased.
*Increased [[shieldstun]], meaning a character hit while using their shield is forced to stay shielded for a longer amount of time.
*Many moves received slight alterations (e.g.: {{SSBB|Bowser}}'s forward smash now produces a [[flame]] effect on contact with the opponent, [[Wizard's Foot]] gives another jump for recovery, and [[Rest]] now produces a [[darkness]] effect and launches the enemy at an angle instead of upward.)
*[[Buffer]] time for moves can be changed to 0-10 frames in Versus mode (Brawl's default is 10). This is done by replacing the handicap with buffer settings, with every 10% being one frame of buffer.
*Using the [[C-Stick]] for a downward aerial attack no longer produces an auto-[[fastfall]].
*[[Landing lag glitch]] removed.
*Unrestricted camera during replays, and while paused in a Versus match.
*Default Versus settings are now four stock, eight minutes, Team Attack on
*Nametags are saved in replays
*Grabs give the victim back their second jump (fixes [[grab release glitch|exploit]] when grabbing an opponent at the ledge and release them to force a [[Fall]])
*Extended [[blast line|out-of-bounds limits]] on certain stages
*Differently colored shields
