So anyway as you can see, this is the death match game that appeared in the beta. So lets revive it!

You can see how it works, normal gear, sheilds, vials and pill included ect. The tiers will be in,

t1=Rookie
T2= Penultimate
T3=Ultimate

T1 has basic maps. No vials and only Health pills

12 point arena: Shown in the last vid minus enermies with Dark City background. Has a city theme. Medium map.
Grid: Simple open grid with Clockwork Tunnel background and a mechanical theme. Big map.
Maze: Fusion of siege and spiral court. Has a Castle theme with Scarlet Fortress map. Biggest map.
Forest: Wolver Den like arena. Surface background. Small map.

T2 includes status vials, both pills and some enemies. Has maps from Rookie updated
Shootout: Has two sides seperated by a gap and swithces that connect to the sides with passages. Best to bring a gun here. Mechanical theme with IMF map. Shock grates.
Maze: Same as before
Forest: Poison theme with grates.
Grid:Same
12 PA: Same
Explosion: RJP themed with the RCR map with the four sections. Has Some Blast cubes.
Shadows: Like maze but with grimlakins. Lucky there are candles. Has the CK map and theme.
Hellfire: A Lichenous Lair map based on 12 PA. Has Fire grates and oilers.

T3. The death sentence. Everything in CW is here.
Most T1 lvs are the same
12 PA: Random Spawning of Tordodrones.......
Hellfire: Alot more oilers.
Explosion: more Blast Cubes.
Alies: A Grid with mecha knights and turrents. Some are on your side. Find them and decimate enemies.
Shootout: Added the spinning whip like obastle that couses shock.
Tundra: Frozen Deconzone that is very large. Freeze gates. Be warned, some creatures are hidden, ready to strike(Tundralisks). Also there would be Silversaps disguised as statues that will appear.
Invasion: The swarm have created a Evil version of Haven! Fight your foes and avoid the enermies and turrents about. A Titanic map. There are no loading scenes for the lv. All swarm enermies appear.
Other T2 places are normal.
Recycle Zone(Need a better name): A area where crushers will pulverise you, Incineraters, Chemicals that poison you, Electric nodes, angry gremlin workers and liquid nitrogen puddles that will make you fear The Clockworks. Has Fire/Freeze/Shock/Poison and shock.

Seems like good fun. A different type of lockdown. +1.

I heard that they haven't

I heard that they haven't released it for public because Grand Faust players would always dominate the matches, that is, it was probably more broken than Lockdown. I'm not sure where I read that though.
If they fixed these balance issues (and removed trinkets) I'd totally play it.

@Blue-Phaze

That was before. Now it's Flourish/Snarble Barbs, Trinkets and Faust line Weapons........

My main reason of throwing it out was the fact that alot of players did DMG instead of Caping in LD. So this would be the game they would play. Then people who don't have that advantage would play LD more that SB.

We needed a basic pvp mode like deathmatch, now we also need team deatchmatch and a capture the flag mode.

This is what me and Magnus

This is what me and Magnus have been craving for a while now. Too bad it's not going to make a return anytime soon. I inquired about this via the support portal.

Greetings,

From the data we collected about player behavior in the game and comments we
determined that Super Brawl as it was wasn't as successful as we would like.
Most didn't return to it after a single session or seem to find it fun. Among
other issues regarding balance and fairness, it simply wasn't the skill of an
individual that allowed them to succeed. So it's doubtful you'll see Super
Brawl in that exact form in the future. However that doesn't mean you wont
see something similar with some of the major issues addressed.

Unfortunately we cannot discuss our future plans as that's something we like
to keep secret as a surprise. If we were to release information it would be
to everyone on the forums. It wouldn't be fair if we only told a few knights
rather than everyone.

Best wishes,

- Cronus

I'm all for it otherwise.

hey!

this actually does look fun and i think it would actually favor gunners a bit too!

im curious about this

i agree with stated above..

the people who stack UV's Trinkets, and get skolver flourish would play this for the sake of domintaing in damage rather than uniform functionality, and the ones who actually want to play as a team, and dont hve skolver and flourish could play loldown on a more balanced scale

@OP Super Brawl

I wish I was around for Super Brawls. Does look fun, but I don't think it should be apart of the Coliseum games. Should make Super Brawl a different area call it Advance Combat Hall : http://forums.spiralknights.com/en/node/47308.
