McBrawl Changed to Brawl
This month saw the change of McBrawl to Brawl! All of our domains including our forums and servers have been updated to fit with this new name. Make sure to update any bookmarks and server addresses to the new domain of "brawl.com", as soon as possible since "mcbrawl.com" might not be available to re-direct you to Brawl. Also, let us know if there are any things that we forgot to update to this new name. Read more...

Ultra Hardcore Event
To enter this event players had to join the UHC server to participate in a round of UHC, where you can’t regenerate hearts automatically; the only way you can gain hearts back are from golden apples or potions. Thank you to the 70 people that did participate in this event and congratulations to Team 19 consisting of @LuckyPop, @bassmaster7, @profbonkars and @Cappucino for earning third place, as well as Team 3 with the members @Plxto, @Valxore and @zombiechild. After a close end battle between Plxto and Eil, Team 14 came out as winners! This team had @Eil, @TheSinisterOne, @UltraPunisher and @bassmaster6 as the members. A video of the final battle can be seen below. Read more…

Ownership Transfer
After putting nearly four years into Brawl, Chaploo has decided to move onto different projects. The new management team will still consist of the same Administrators and Super-Moderators, however, Myortvye will resume Chaploo's position as Owner. Chaploo decided to give Myortvye Owner because he has been a long term friend and Chap believes that he can lead Brawl towards future success. It is sad that Chap is leaving, but I'm sure it will be for the best.
Just joking, April Fools! Really got you guys good :v

New Forum Icons
New cartoon images drawn by InkByte of our servers have been added to the forums! These images capture the essence of a certain server in one picture, which now can be seen as the icons for the servers on the forum page, and also the Brawl home page. We hope you like them!

Boom!​

MinecraftParty Update
MinecraftParty had many new and exciting things added this month! First of all, titles and an action bar have been added for the start and the end of a game, and the shop is now functional. As well as this, many games have been given minor updates. In the Chicken Game, nametags can now be seen far away, and in Spleef, One In The Chamber and Snowball Fight, a compass has been added to point toward enemy players. In Shoot The Sheep, whenever you successfully kill a sheep, a "+(x)" comes up in the middle of your screen, with the color of the sheep you shot! As well as all of these tweaks, a new minigame has been added called "Potion Drop". In this minigame, every player takes half a heart of damage every second and health potions will drop from the sky. You have to drink those potions to survive, and if you die, then you’re out of the game.
