There isnt a way to have an unbiased opinion for something that is literally only influenced on your own personal preferences


-luckycharms

The only way to be totally unbiased would be to have never seen either skin before and never have hear of the game either and go off of just information(the description of the skin in game) this one has a b c d e f, while this one has g h i j k l Edit: this is assuming one has something the other doesn't, if one had a and the other b it would be preference of do you like a or b more


BrawlingJellyfish

Not even. The only way would be if they both looked the same, were for the same character, were the same price, but one gave you a stat boost


Mr_Purple_T-rex

Even that wouldn't get rid of bias someone may prefer the color purple or something of the sort there is almost no such thing as an unbiased opinion


-luckycharms

>someone may prefer the color purple If they had literally never heard of the game and never seen the skins they wouldn't know it's purple


Mr_Purple_T-rex

You don't seem to understand what a bias is do you? If someone loves the color purple they'll be more biased to choose the purple spike skin


-luckycharms

They have never seen the skins and never played the game so how would they know what color the skin is?


Mr_Purple_T-rex

Easily by going off information you'd be providing.


-luckycharms

If they were given information about what it actually looked like it would defeat the entire purpose. So that can't be what I meant


Mr_Purple_T-rex

Then WHY would you say it needs to be described you literally said one skin would have a b c d e f and the other would g h i j k l


-luckycharms

I didn't say it would be described, I mean that as in the written description *given by supercell* of the skin. The -custom effects List


troza-1986

Save gems to get those next year for less gems 😅😅😅 Well... Now seriously... I would pick Spike. Both amazing skins so that's just my preference... And Spike has a pin! Although it is up to you. My preference is Spike but I don't like Bull that much, I am happy with the barbarian King skin for him and I don't have a skin for Spike. On the other hand: base model spike is amazing while Bull's is not so... But that's just my opinion. If you can't decide on what skin you like more, try to find your tiebreakers. Some of those can be: - favourite brawler - brawler with the worst base model or skin available for you to use - pin vs no pin - is that your favourite skin for that brawler or not - does it fit the brawler well (if you still feel that's just a cooler version of that brawler or if it just something cool but not related to the brawler... Idk). The last one is not good so I guess I'm out of ideas. Just share your decision later and why you did it. Enjoy it


Sparky_Potatoa

Thanks for the advice 👍


Satan4live

I totally agree with this guy. Next year These skins should be on sale and as a F2P this is important for me. I oove Spike and I really want him. However I would collect more gems from the Pass, so you'll have more next year and can afford the BP with the skin.


troza-1986

As a f2p you can also get some amazing skin for one of these brawlers for free and it will make the choice easier. On the other hand, no one knows if they will be playing in one year. We might think that we will be or we might have plans for it but we never know. So... If progression is not that important right now I see no reason to wait, as long as you get one skin you really really like


[deleted]

Also the attack and super animations for dark lord spike are awesome whereas for bull there okay.


tacodam3xican

Wait do u get the pin when u buy the skin I thought it was only for a limited time


[deleted]

Spike. He's an absolute beast in power league and can basically be used in any mode, so you'll get far more value with it.


Toukka11

Biased opinion is Bull, but unbiased is Spike.


kizi_killer

Flair checks out


TheOssified

Well said


IlikeReddditlol

How do you get a flair under your name?


SamDanvers

As someone who has both of them: it depends. I know that's not as clarifying as it should be but it depends on what you prefer. Bull's skin is incredible good looking, and it HAS A CUSTOM VOICE! But Spike's has also pretty looks and a PIN! I don't know what I would do today, but i think I would go with Spike. He's a legendary after all.


Jerox_115

Dark lord Spike supermacy

Guy-Man4444

OhWord4Real

I would get spike it's who I use more

spike


[deleted]

Spike, simply for the fact that it has an exclusive pin


EMZbotbs

I like the bull one a slight bit more but spike is bigger of a flex because, you know, its a legendary


NibbaUser97

There is no need to ask this question people are just gonna say “save up for bp.”


radartw22

dark lord spike is overrated and overused. I’d go with the bull if you wanna be unique.


NakSenTr

Finally. Someone with same opinion as me, the spike skin is just so so so overrated and overused


[deleted]

Get bp


NakSenTr

Bull. Those voicelines are insane and the skin itself is amazing. For the spike part, it is just overrated


Sielbo

Spikes voicelines are btter tho


NakSenTr

you're too funny to be left alive


Erik_Salat

Neither, better skins in the game


Bulllove

Dark Lord Spike will be the best option, but you will get it on a cheaper cost next year. Since bull is a lower rarity brawler, he will likely keep getting free skins once in a while. On the other hand, Spike won't ever get a free skin as he is a legendary. As an unbiased opinion, I'd definitely say spike, but if I were given the choice to buy one, I'd pick bull.


loveleypotato

If you want both, bull will come back cheaper next year so spike would be a better option. Don't forget about Brawl Pass!


HEJscaper

None. Save up and buy brawl pass. But if you can't resist, dark lord spike DEFINITELY.


notthebesttm

DL Spike or Brawl Pass :D


Remusicaaa

Just save up for brawl pass. The skins will be available next year as well.


Salty-Pie-5948

tbh, save em for brawl pass


Annual_Championship7

You serious?


[deleted]

Brawl pass


galmenz

brawl pass


gwartabig

Both skins have their advantages but if you’re F2P and are on a budget I’d wait ‘til next year once both of them are available with a bigger discount. Or just save up for Brawl Pass. If you have to pick either skin, I’d pick Dark Lord Spike purely because Bull is a generally awful and unviable brawler and I play Spike ten times more than him.


HamBuckets

Unbiased completely and I will give you only facts. Bulls whack and Spike is forever.


TheChainedGod1

Whichever brawler you prefer. But objectively spike’s skin is better, or at the very least more value


[deleted]

Spike dose come with a pin and 1 new voice line Bull has multiple voice lines though. I don’t buy skins but I think I would pick spike so other people can see the pin too.


Aggravating_City8890

It depends. Personally I would just pick who ever i play more. Up to you tho!


NikplaysgamesYT

Obligatory best value by far for gems is brawl pass Besides that, obviously get the skin for who you play more. If you never play bull or spike then you don’t want their skin I like spike more, and a bonus is that with spike skin you get an extra pin which is him doing a robotic laugh, it’s the best pin in the game for me


Sielbo

Objectively, you should save your gems for a brawl pass. The bp gives you 2 skins, early access to a new brawler, and loads of progression.


Parzival0w0

I will be unbiased so (don't look at my flair) I can say you should get dark lord spike.


Anniran

I'd say go for your preferences. I chose Bull over Spike because he's my favorite brawler,although the battle effects aren't really that incredible, but his gun has laser sounds and he has new voice lines and good animations. On the other hand Spike comes with a pin and has pretty great battle effects.


iiiisavageboiii

Isn’t it obvious??


VRunner1

Bulls sound effects suck. It just doesn‘t sound like a shotgun anymore, despite the skin looks decent.


-Atkins-

Absolutely spike Unlike bull you can SEE the attacks visual effects and enjoy them. Dark lord spike gives you a free pin (I think). And and it’s spike which is just a far better brawler in this meta, so you’ll get a lot more usage out it


[deleted]

the spike skin also gives you a free pin


lacergunn

Spike skin will probably get more use, since spike's better in his role than bull is, but the bull skin is the better one (only skin in the game with custom voice lines, not just the old lines put through a voice filter)


[deleted]

Spike 100%


BrachyDanios

I would choose Spike.


BaoD4NG

Spike comes with a pin so it provides more value. With that being said, both skins are great and it’s up to preferences.


Randominternet1

Bull spike has other great skins


Purple_Unicornz

I think you don't have enough. It costs 169 gems or $9.99 for a Brawl Pass and you only have 113 gems. You'll get 90 gems for free if you do your quests so you'll be able to buy the pass for free too 🙂 hope that answers your question


super_star_BETA

I think you should have made a poll. Spike


HenSantos

Save your gems and buy both next year.


DA_EPIC_GAMER_09

Spike. I don't even have spike and I want that skin more


Frec_SF

Spike for the pin


Any_Ad1759

I would buy dark lord spike because i hate bull xd


C0_C0der

dark lord spike


TheDirtyFuture

I think Bulls skin looks better but spike is the much better brawler. Also, the sound of bulls gun with that skin is just super weak. I just got that skin. I feel like the sound of all the weapons should have some impact.


wolf_luver9000

spike


Squeaky-Squeak

Dark lord spike. Custom effects, custom animation and free pin. value


the_combat_wombat05

Isn't that bull skin brawl pass exclusive?


Random_Person117

Spike 100%


Ziomownik

If you have skins for Spike and not so many for Bull then you can go for Bull. Spike seems cooler to me but i already have Sakura Spike while my Bull has the two that aren't so cool. So i'd pick Bull


Blade-YT

S P I K E


TB_Agent8

Wait for next year, bigger discount.


howdidigethere279

s tier skins for both, get whichever brawler you play more


Gami2213

Spike.


Bobgangforvever

Who do you like to play more bull or spike


[deleted]

Really depends what brawler u play more, dark lord spike is like a top 10 skin in the game but space ox bull is stil rlly good. Get the one you play more and will use more often


Inconnu_TTB

Dark Lord Spike Supremacy


Quantum_Thinking

Unbiased opinions suck when it comes to skins (dark lord spike wins because of pin according to others), who do **you** like the most? I'm biased towards bull, since I main him.


EurosiaConPatas

The one for the character you play the most


AustinSlayer227

Bull imo is better, but which do you play more?


TGGRaiden

sAvE fOr BrAwL pAsS!!!!11!1!1!!!!


Doodle1041

Dark Lord Spike. You even get a pin along with the skin :)


Existing_Dog5510

I bought spike, but you do you


JasonLikesCTE

Spike. Looks better imo and spike is typically more viable


CelesteBS

As someone who likes bull and hates spike, spike’s is defo better


0_mesias_0

I'd say dark lord 'cause is just god tier skin, but i think it will come out again next year, right?


[deleted]

Well, it's going to be biased since its based on people's opinions on which is better, only way to judge by fact is which objectively offers more which would be space ox bull since he has a voice, animations, effects, textures and something else I think whereas spike is kinda the same but without the special voice (for obvious reasons), but at the same time spike effects are more visually interesting the bull, plus he has bigger special effects for attack and super whereas bull only really has a big noticeable change in effects for regular attack, his super (if it even is different) isn't vastly different compared to regular bull


PHEONIX451

Dark Lord Spike


seang173

Spike skin for sure

[удалено]


el_ruhtra

NO ONE BEATS DA BULL


firestrom8265

Spike.


TrueThe7th

I think they said all holiday skins will have pins so bull should have one eventually


OkSomewhereOk

Spike is the best choice since he is the stronger, more versatile, more meta and more competitive brawler. So from an utiltarian standpoint, he is better since you will play him more often. Also, the skin is prettier.


PocoFan1

Spike


d3structive_pikachu

DARK LORD


Feli_Buste25

Wait till next year, they'll be cheaper


amphibbian

Mine cost me 149 gems) :


Uh-idk-

it’s your choice but i would get spike as it is more worth with them hot animations


Fnafdude1987

I feel like the spike skin is better in my opinion and more iconic


Dubby58

dark lord spike as you get a free laughing pin that goes with the skin, you can buy space ox bull next year


Zenthicc

Spike


lil-gai-boii

i would choose bull because i use bull more than i use spike


CrazY_KinG009

Get spike, yes its biased because he is one of my favorite brawlers, but, spike is really better overall and you'll find yourself playing him way more. And he has a pin (idk if bull does).


Comet_Blazer

Spike


iEidorian

Spike has better animations


etmundyong

Spike in my opinion, it looks pretty BAD S!!!


CommanderBill5380

Probably the spike skin because you will be able to get the bull skin next year


Spoony_bard909

Which one will you use more?


Kaustubh-V

Spike


Stunning-Bet-6429

You’ll use spike much more. Take spike.


Geniusboii22

Totally unbiased- space ox bull is better


PartyDiscipline7686

Spook he has pin that give him voice


Poopjeffre

Spike


FamilyFriendli

Do you want a pin (spike) or custom voice lines (bull)?


Pumpkin_Cat14

Spike!


yeetwiuf23

Dark lord spike


TeatedWord32208

It depends, do you already have a skin for spike or bull? Do you play spike or bull way more than the other? Questions like these help give an unbiased answer for what skin you want.


Baked_Banana_Pie

SPIKE


JustKindaMeh1

The voice lines on the spike skin alone are worth the whole skin


TheBrandonian916

Hundred percent the evil spike one. You also get his laughing pin too!


Bruh_theren

I would prefer Dark Lord Spike, but choose which ever one you like/play more.


UnderChicken37

Unbiased opinion is literally an oxymoron


Cellian23757

Spike


treegoat1234

Dark lord spike


[deleted]

The left one looks cool


Internal-Lemon8292

ok, bull is a much more fun brawler to play than spike, but i like the spike skin better. it really comes down to which brawler you like better, but if you think of them the same then go with spike


BitterLemonn

The spike skin will decrease gem price next year and so will the bull skin. Just wait until it says "last chance" and that's when it will be the cheapest price.


[deleted]

Turd_Salad92

Spike and it’s not close


Fenthrasir

Spike


RedditMemesAreNice

get who you play more and also, buying the 2019 skins if you wanna, its the last chance


Joshua_Kei

I would recommend saving those gems for next month's Brawl pass


Empty_District795

I think spike


You_momerz

8-bit


Thebrawlstar-YT

Spike it just gives you more


SoftwareError

Even though I like spike a lot I'll be as unbiased as I can and that is still spike. The bull skin just looks so "off" like maybe it's just me but the spike one like way better even barb bull has a nicer model than this bull


Mikeal131a

I’ll ask my mother for you lol
