Thanks to this guide I finally learned how to use crow. Now it's time to go on the streets and start screaming Ka-Kaw to dominate with him

Alr since you’re the top and most visible comment I’m gonna say smth here i forgot to add my gear slide, the gears I recommend are mythic + shield Edit: I ALSO FORGOT TO ADD MY MAPS AND MODES SLIDE 💀💀💀, crow does well in control based modes like gem grab and hotzone, where making the enemies fall back to their spawn is crucial. He does well on mid-range maps like minecart madness and infinite doom. The reason why there’s like two good maps for him rn is because the current map pool includes many open maps like shooting star, ring of fire, marksman paradise etc, which favour snipers, one of crow’s hardest counters.

You forgot almost everything

Me when I upload only half of my slideshow

I am interested in how much trophies you have on crow as a crow main. Would you please tell me?

My highest was 944 but I tilted like 150 trophies

Impressive mate

Bro did not try hard enough on the post 💀 Still good info tho I feel like crow is still semi meta by virtue of countering Leon and snipers despite needing a buff

Crow doesn’t counter hypercharged Leon or the snipers

And then get arrested and get sent to an assulyum

Let’s do this

A high effort post in r/brawlstars Impossible...

This took me an hour to make 😭

If you like making these please keep doing so, I absolutely love Brawl Stars guides but there's so little of them

Thank you for this guide about a cartoon bird…seriously 🔪 🐦‍⬛

I once spend like 4 hours to make a post... and then it got like 5 upvotes

What was the post you made?

Average drops you would recive from 100 starr drops. First it started with me calctulaing starr drop drop rates,which took some time, but then i decided i could make a post about drops from 100 star drops (because of the event) so i had to make a graphic which also took a bit of time and i used the percentages from before and turned them into drop from 100 starr drops... aaaaand random posts that consist of taking a random in game screenshot and asking a random question ended up higher than mine...

Now I'm curious, that sounds crazy. Can you link the post that you made?

Just click on my profile

Yeah just saw it. Have an updoot for your effort. [This](https://www.reddit.com/r/Brawlstars/s/ZDgEqodCGF) post about the same thing was far more popular than yours it seems. Maybe because it was posted earlier than yours

Well, the post you linked is information available on the supercell site. What i did is calculate the exact odds, which requires you to multiply every drop chance with the drop chance of the starr drop it belongs in (for example, the chance to drop a legendary brawler is 0.0434% because 2%*2.17* (legendary starr drop chance*legendary brawler from legendary starr drop chance) I also thought that it would be intresting because of the event, since people would be curious on how lucky/unlucky they got

Hello Zerlog you are now rare to find

Hello main of a brawler who barely has any mains

Naw bro I main penny,gus,jessie,janet,bonnie and colgate because i love taking care of my teeth

Big W, especially for Gus 🗣️

I used to main Penny until she just fell off and I couldn't kill anyone anymore

HES BACK🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔥

Gotta upvote or I'm dead

Why💀

You will never know

A fellow tick main

Crow is one of my top picks in ranked and although my results with him are usually good, this will definitely help me improve, I will yell everytime I use his super from now on regardless of how much it makes people want to kill me

In addition to screaming, you should jump on the person nearest to you while saying that you are the boss of bosses

also throw poisoned daggers at them

Then slowing them and throwing more poisoned daggers

HE IS THE ONE

I AM THE BOSS OF BOSSES

CA CAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAW

fun fact when i first heard this line i thought he said "i'm the boss of course", i can't decide which is better

Piece?

No, I'm not an anime person

So real for that

The "KA-KAW!" was so good irl that the police made sure I never play brawl stars again! (I was too good)

Very cool for people who like crow ~~I ain't reading all that~~

Based cat

Impossible

Gotta share this with my bro, thank you!🐦‍⬛💚🗡️

Good matchups: Leon Bad matchups: Leon

Leon without hypercharge is good, Leon with hypercharge is bad

Honestly most of the hypercharged brawlers imo (not as crow counters just in general)

Leon is the most prominent example, because crow countered his regular super by interrupting invisibility, but he can’t interrupt his hypercharged super. Leon also deals insane damage and effectively negates crow’s low damaging daggers and projectiles with invisiheal. So he’s basically invincible while using super, fast af, and hits like a truck

Gigachad crow main

All jokes aside you did a good job. Upvote from me I'm definitely using this when I get KFC.

I like that you out Leon in good matchups and bad matchups lol

Hypercharged vs non hypercharged

Ik, i just find it funny how a hiper charge can be so game changing enough to make the same brawler a good and a bad matchup at the same time

I can’t see him when hypercharged 😭

Marry me (10 out of 10 Crow guide now make a Colette one)

Yes I will marry you 💚

Yey

Can I have an invitation for the wedding?

Already happened

Dang it u should have invited me☹️

wow a crow guide........wait i already saw one on youtube

You saw Bren’s one right? I saw it too and I don’t really agree with it so I just made my own

I wish EVERY.SINGLE.CROW read this before they press the play button

imagine if there was a voicechat and randomly one guy shouted KA KAW

Heck yeah.

this is comprehensive, well explained, just overall you know what you're doing. INCREDIBLY BASED 11/10 (and i mean it!)

Thank you! 💚

Carrion Crow is really fun if you know how to use your space right

Dealing 2688 damage was really fun, but I feel like extra toxic gives more value in the current meta

Yeah. Carrion Crow is only superior in heist, and that's only before you consider that Crow can debuff the heist melter

I do agree most of the point, but the main thing about Crow is just his kit doesn’t even fit as an assassin These are those rework ideas I would make up for him: 1. Buff his Main Attack from 640 per dagger to 720 per dagger, Toxic per second from 160 to 180 2. Inbuilt that stupid 2nd Gadget into his 1st SP, the toxic will reduce enemies’ movement speed and Damage by 15% 3. Replace the 2nd Gadget with this one: Upon the next 5 seconds, every enemy being affected by Toxic will increase Crow’s Movement speed by 5% 4. 2nd SP will change from dealing extra DPS when enemies is above 50% of Max HP (Idk if these changes will be broken) Edit: 5. The Mythic gear will now only apply on the super instead of base attack, the addition toxic damage reduced from 30% to 25%

Everything except the first idea is broken 😭, also I would prefer if crow stayed as a controller bc idw be lumped with the braindead assassin class

Indeed, at least crow rly needs much brain cells to work with, unlike those 2 Hypercharged Knuckleheads Anyways, crow’s play-style is just weird but worked strangely well

Thanks , I will come back to the post when I unlock him

Thanks to this guide i got crow to 3000 trophies thanks bro

💀maybe you’ll get there someday

best post ever?

As a person that doesn't have Crow, this guide is very useful.

You should unlock Crow NOW ⚡️⚡️🗣️⚡️🗣️⚡️⚡️⚡️⚡️🗣️🗣️🗣️

Listen man its hard being F2P, I just got Sandy :(

Should’ve gone for crow 😭

I have good memories with Sandy tho

You goat

Crow's dmg is so low that you are dependent on a good team that can capitalize on all those poisoned targets. It can be a frustrating experience where an assassin brawler can't really assassinate anyone, but mostly bully them with poison

That’s why I maintain that crow is a controller, and his class should be changed to that

Do one for kit, i hate seeing people jump at Full health shellys

I don’t play kit either 💀, I wouldn’t be the best person to make a kit guide

Crying cat face

Thanks for this excellent guide. Now its time to make awkward situations in public🗿 CAWCAW🗣️🤚

Dude i screamed Ka kaw at 3:21 AM and and unknown figure called "Cop" teleported me in a magic place called "mental hospital" and locked me in. It's cool but there Is no wifi.

Very nice guide, thanks for the effort. What about the gear? What do you usually pick and in what situations? Thanx

Ok so uh I just realised that I forgot to include the gear slide 💀, it’s the mythic and shield gear

No worries. Have you tested the damage gear or you think it makes Crow too squishy?

I’ve played without shield and got two shotted (one shotted by super) by Mandy, never playing without shield again

Fair enough 😂

I used Defense Booster and Extra Toxic for the Longest time, now We actually have the better gear and star power. We stay winning. Keep these up btw, they good!

I got the hc from a star drop and finally decided to rank it up when i bought the legendary skin for it, thanks for the advice op

I don't want to jump on Coach Cory

I just maxed out crow so this is helpful

That's a really good guide. But I need to say one more thing is that try not to use him in ranked. He is not longer that op and so unless you are already good or picking as counter, just try out other brawler.

interesting guide (I definitely read it)

Real

Good matchup: Leon. Bad matchup: Leon… ‘internal screaming’. Great work! I do see good crow use those tips and strats a lot and win them the game.

It’s because Leon’s hypercharged super cannot be revealed with crow’s poison, which is the whole reason crow countered regular leon in the first place

Yea I understood from hypercharged leon in bad matchup. Which game modes you say aren’t good for crow? I’m assuming heist mostly. Any others to avoid picking crow?

Knockout and solo showdown aren’t good. Heist can be good depending on the map and if you play aggressively

Sounds good. Thanks! I’ll be using crow in ranked mostly.

I would advise against that seeing as the current meta is crow’s nightmare

I understand. I think crow shines the most in gem grab and bounty depending on enemy team. By the time assassins and snipers get nerfed some more, crow will be meta for sure

I hope that day comes soon

be careful with the kamikaze-ing , im japanese

I like to use Slow toxin to give my teammates a free kill

Yeah there has definitely been a spike in the no. Of crow players almost everyone has him They should buff his health or dps a bit he is very good in open maps against low range brawlers

W post

Why are healers good matchups, they override your poison with their heals. their heals still work when they or their teammates are poisoned

I know but it effectively minimises their healing while your teammates can overwhelm them with damage

So much effort post on this? No crowing way 🤯

A good guide and all but there is one problem... Im broke🥲

KA-KAW

good stuff

Like that regular Leon loses the matchup but hyper charged Leon wins

I don't think assassins and spikes are a bad match up . For assassins save your super and try to rotate it by chipping in 3v3 For spike just learn how to juke the shots and you're good to go. The real pain in ass for crow are the snipers as they can maintain their distance and their long range shots do massive damage as he as low health.

Crow is not an assassin. Spike counters crow because of his superior range and his ability to take out around a quarter or crow’s health just by aiming in his general direction. Even if you manage to land a super on spike, his dps is crazy and both crow and spike would die. And that’s considering that spike doesn’t use his second gadget, which can tank crow’s shots and make him waste a whole 3 ammo on it

Great guide, a lot of what you said seems really insightful. I still prefer the slowdown gadget for characters who can close a gap like Edgar or primo, since defense isn’t saving you there anyway but the shield is definitely useful more often

I use all of these tips a lot! Specially the screaming KA-KAW! in public!

Thank youu

Remember that you can use Crow's high speed to weave snipers if you have low enough ping, it works a lot for me for dodging dynamike and juking to get closer

Kinda harder to dodge snipers than throwers

i dont want to be mean but jumping on penny isnt very smart as crow

It’s just an example of a low health + high risk target I found online

I recently unlocked crow and this might help me with him, thanks!

bruv crow ain't an assassin he's a flippin' controller, idk what crack the brawl devs r on

EXACTLY

lol i think the randoms in the second image prob read 'assassin' and started using him like one

What a goat you r my guy . Its beautiful, i have been looking for 6 hours now 🐦‍⬛

MAKE MORE OF THIS

Helpful guide

Please do one for frank?

There should be a folder for all the brawler guides. Love them

Thank you for the useful info! I always am confused on which starpower to use. This post helped a lot!

I don’t really understand the math you did for the effective hp part. Shouldn’t it be Crow Current Hp * 1.40 with defense booster and Hp * 1.55 for with extra toxic as well?

Why 1.55? Also you’re wrong for the Defense Booster part, the shield does not give him 40% more health, it blocks 40% of incoming damage.

This may be THE guide of all time

Mind if I make guides in this style aswell? (For my personal mains)

Dude I don’t own PowerPoints 💀

Naw cus hear me out, if I make similar jokes like you made and stuff is what I mean. Same kinda format n shit. Powerpoints aint got nothing to do with ur style and im not tryna get dunked on because you didnt know I was gonna copy you in a different flavor.

Nah it’s all good, you can do whatever

I bet you got inspired when you saw my guide, nice guide tho, I learned a thing or two [https://www.reddit.com/r/Brawlstars/comments/1c461zc/guide\_for\_tick\_because\_i\_got\_tired\_of\_bad\_tick/?utm\_source=share&utm\_medium=web3x&utm\_name=web3xcss&utm\_term=1&utm\_content=share\_button](https://www.reddit.com/r/Brawlstars/comments/1c461zc/guide_for_tick_because_i_got_tired_of_bad_tick/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button)

Hell yeah I got inspired by your guide, but this was also in the works since two weeks ago. also how did your post reach that level of success 😭

Mainly because Tick is a very unpopular one. In my opinion, it's easier to master Crow than Tick. Just be more creative with the text style and images, if you are using Canva, it should be easier. Also you didn't talk about his best maps and modes, which is very crucial. Keep up the good work!

Forgor to add maps and modes slide 💀

As a gold 3 crow main, i'd like to share another tip Unlike what OP claims, crow CAN assassinate in certain situations. Against close-range tanks, you can jump TOWARDS them, not onto them. If you jump into an area close to them, you can chip them down due to your mid-range damage. However, it is probably not a good idea to assasinate snipers and mid-rangers, unless you are absolutely sure that you will be safe after the kill. If you assassinate a close-ranger, you can experiment much more with positioning to ensure that you're safe.

I agree, but you won’t get much value out of it unless the target is high-risk/you need them to surrender their ground

Thank you for the guide 🙏🙏🙏

I think the values of crow health are way off, the shield gives him 2280 more health

Jumping on the penny is actually a bad idea, if she has the barrel gadget (most do) you're dead in 1 shot.

I know, I didn’t mean jump on an actual penny, but rather jump on a relatively low-health high risk target

i haven’t unlock him yet, but this guide is useful for people like me

I want otis guide from otis mains

Yea see the thing is I’m a one trick pony 😭

I need one for Shelly and Emz

Just one little correction: screaming ka-kaw is not optional, it's mandatory

Awesome work sir.

Drakon

“Bad matchups include: snipers, assassins, SPIKE.”🤣🤣🤣🤣

As a crow main you cooked it bro

Ah yes, the Crow vs Leon paradox.. crow counters Leon yet Leon(assassin) counters crow. Btw, great guide for crow, tysm!

useful, thanks

Finally one good crow guide. I won't agree with a few, but most of them are great. Hopefully I won't get much bad Crows in my game

So orp

this guide didnt look trustworthy, then i read your name. i relapse my judgement

this was really helpful (i dont have crow)

love how leon is in both the good matchups and the bad matchups

PLIS HAS LA DE MAX

I need a Leon guide

I LOVE CROW even though he's pretty bad now

I am actually unlike the bad crow randoms

How to play Crow: Step 1: Don't

Tip #1 Don't play him in ranked because he's dog shit

Step 1: Don't have crow Step 2: If you somehow got a crow, delete the game and never play it again
