How to create maps on Brawl Stars

The world of mods, or content created by the community, has amply demonstrated that users no longer only want to “consume” a video game, but rather adopt a “prosumer” logic, actively entering its “production process”. Some developers, understanding this desire, have decided to provide fans with useful tools for creating content for their games, aware of the fact that users can prove to be an inexhaustible source of ideas.

Among the developers who have chosen to adopt this approach is Supercell, which has made available to users a special editor that allows you to create content for titles such as the famous Brawl Stars . Well, this tutorial is here just to go into the details of the latter. More precisely, I will show you how to create maps on Brawl Stars , in order to allow you to “give life” to your creations and, if you want, play them in company.

What do you say? Was that exactly what you wanted to know and are you looking forward to trying to create custom games in Brawl Stars? Come on then, below are all the indications of the case. Having said that, there is nothing left for me to do, except wish you good reading and, above all, have fun!

Preliminary information

Before going into the details of the procedure on how to create maps on Brawl Stars , I think it may interest you to know more about this possibility.

Well, the map generator that allows you to create customized Brawl Stars maps is unlocked once you have reached 1,000 trophies within the Trophy Walk . You can see the number of trophies available to you in the appropriate box at the top left of the main game screen.

To get the trophies, you need to win as many games as possible or otherwise place well in events like Survival . If you’re just starting out in Brawl Stars, reaching the 1,000 trophy requirement can take several hours, but it’s actually not very complex.

In fact, the game has some mechanics that allow the user to advance without too many problems within the Trophy Trail, although obviously the speed with which the goal is reached depends on the user’s performance.

In any case, if you have not yet reached the 1,000 trophies necessary to unlock the map generator and you want to get there as fast as possible, the advice is to play the Footbrawl event continuously , as the latter guarantees 8 trophies for each victory. and in general it does not cause you to lose many in case of defeat.

Among the “advanced mechanics” that I advise you to keep in mind with regard to this mode, there is the possibility of using the Super of certain characters to destroy the “barriers” in front of the opponent’s door, in order to “free ”The way to their team, which will thus be able to score more easily.

To give you a concrete example, a Brawler that I recommend to use is El Primo , since the Super of the latter can be used in a game of Footbrawl both to destroy the elements of the scenario and to make a shot from a distance and therefore have more chance to score.

By continuing to play these games and implementing the actions I have outlined, you shouldn’t have too much trouble hitting 1,000 trophies . Sure, you will probably lose a few games, but by managing everything right it is possible to keep the number of trophies lost.

In fact, if at a certain point you see that with your “trusted” Brawler you start to lose too many trophies with each defeat, try to change it with another one that you think is suitable for your style of play and you will see that the “balance” of the trophies will return. quickly into positive.

If you need more advice, I remind you that on these pages you can find my tutorial on how to improve on Brawl Stars , in which I went into more detail on the topic.

For the rest, the map generator allows you to create up to 5 maps , which can then be used with your friends or published online. Don’t worry: it’s actually nothing too complex and in this tutorial I’ll walk you through the process of making your first map.

How to create your own map on Brawl Stars

After explaining the general situation to you and giving you some useful tips to unlock the map generator , I would say that it is time to take action and unleash your creativity.

To proceed, once you have reached the 1,000 trophies, just press the ☰ icon at the top right of the Brawl Stars main screen, tap the MAP GENERATOR icon and press the CREATE NEW box .

At this point, you will be prompted to type in the name of the map , choose the event (ie the “mode”) and select the scenario you want to use, which will be the background to the games. Once pressed on the CREATE button , the editor page will appear on the screen.

Obviously, the basic “outline” has already been realized by the game. For example, if you have chosen to make a Footbrawl event, the football goals and the pitch, as well as the external elements, are already present.

You can instead use the item bar at the bottom, selecting those present by default, to create obstacles that players will find themselves in front of during their games. There is therefore no shortage of crates , barrels , grass and spawn points .

To give you a concrete example, I will examine the creation of a map linked to the Footbrawl event . At the beginning of creation, there are blue circles and red circles on the ground . These represent the “generation” points .

You have surely noticed that it is possible to place a maximum of 3 circles for each color and in fact 3 is also the number of players on each team. This means that these are the spawn points , which is where users are generated, for example, at the start of the game.

To customize this element as well, I therefore recommend that you press the Remove All button on the right. After that, you can place the spawn points wherever you want , always paying attention to the colors. To make the positioning of the objects more precise, I also recommend that you press the Grid button , which is always on the right.

In any case, if you want for example to avoid players having to walk a long stretch of the map each time, you can place the spawn points just outside the central red area . If, on the other hand, you want to make sure that those who “come back to the game” do so starting from the door , in order to defend it, you could think of putting the “generators” near the door .

As for the circles with arrows , the latter are the regeneration points and are therefore important to be included in the map. Obviously, it is up to you to choose to place them where you deem it most appropriate.

For the rest, if you want to place several elements of the same type together, you can do so by clicking on the Single Placement box , present at the top, and selecting the type of positioning you want to make, for example the mirror one . By doing this, you will be able to accomplish everything in a shorter time. Obviously, if you’re wrong you can always use the Cancel button , present at the top right.

Once you have learned how to use these elements, you just have to indulge yourself with all the others made available by the editor, which actually create the obstacles that the players will find themselves in front of during the game. In a Footbrawl event , obviously it is recommended to place obstacles in front of the goals , in order to make it more difficult to score.

Also, an idea that I really like is to “lock” some players , at the beginning of the game, into an environment surrounded by obstacles . In this way, you will force users to have to fight each other from the start. The first user who will be able to use the Super will be able to break the obstacles and give life to offensive actions.

Once you have done everything, you can remove the “unwanted” objects simply by pressing the DESELECT button , present at the bottom left, and tapping on the element you want to delete. Once you have finished the changes, you just have to press first on the Save button , which is on the right, and then on the Exit button , present at the top left.

Doing so will take you back to the map generator screen. Perfect, you have now correctly learned how to create events in Brawl Stars.

How to play your map on Brawl Stars

How do you say? Have you finished creating your map and are on the generator screen but don’t know how to test it ? No problem, I’ll tell you how to do it right away!

To proceed, just click on the ☰ icon in the box of the game you have created and tap on the FRIENDLY option . At this point, you can already press the INVITE icons , to ask your friends to participate, or you can leave everything as it is to test the map against bots .

This way, you can test your creation and see if everything is as you wanted it. For the rest, if you think, after several games, that your map is fun and that other players will like it too, you might consider sending it for publication .

To do this, press the EXIT icon present at the top right of the main screen of Brawl Stars, in order to conclude the test phase of the game. Therefore, tap on the ☰ icon located at the top right and select the MAP GENERATOR option .

Then, tap on the ☰ icon in the map box you created earlier and press the SEND button . The game will warn you that maps must be approved by other players in friendlies and can only be published by their authors if they receive a sufficient number of votes .

If you are convinced of the goodness of your map, then press the OK button and that’s it. It will take 10 approvals for your map to be published.

In short, now you just have to try to get the map approved through friendlies, to see if you like it and if it can be published. I remind you that you can go back to check the status of the approval through the MAP GENERATOR section : you will see the appropriate percentage in the box relating to your creation.

The maps can then be played by users through the appropriate COMMUNITY section . In particular, to be able to appear in the WINNER OF THE DAY section , it is necessary to receive at least 500 votes . For more details on how this mechanic works, you can refer to the official Supercell portal .

Perfect, now you know everything there is to know about the ability to create maps. Since you usually play this video game, I would recommend that you take a look at the page of my site dedicated to Brawl Stars , where you can find many other tutorials that could be for you.
