Balanced Brawl (or BBrawl) is a hack of Super Smash Bros Brawl designed by Thinkaman and Amazing Ampharos with the goal of balancing characters in competitive Brawl with as few changes to core physics as possible. More information, downloads, and discussion can be found at the Balanced Brawl Standard Release thread.

Differences from Brawl+

Unlike Brawl+, none of the core physics have been changed:

  • Character movement is the same.
  • Hitbox sizes are the same for all characters.
  • No stages are frozen.

However, timing of a few attacks have been changed, and random tripping is removed

Goals of BBrawl

  • Remove Infinites and Inescapable Lockdowns
  • Character Balancing
  • Increase Stage Viability

Character Changes

When Balanced Brawl was started, the creators decided to balance all the characters towards a power level close to that of Diddy Kong in standard Brawl. This meant many characters received very minimal changes.
