This seasonal event features exclusive items, like the new Artemis & Diana Skins, Sidekick, Podium, and much more.

Cassidy Sig Rework
After tons of feedback and testing in Experimental – Cassidy gets an entirely new tool while retaining the original.
New Down Hammer changes: Cassidy will now throw her lasso and trap her opponents in it.
- Bonus: Also reworked on Globox!
New Side Hammer: Charge variant will perform the original Down Hammer tornado signature. The uncharged Side Hammer remains unchanged.
Dash Updates
Also graduating from Experimental – the startup time for backdash has been decreased both in neutral and during dash dancing to be more symmetrical with forward dash.
Now, just like forward dash, you can attack out of a backdash freely.
Other than the slightly reduced impulse speed compared to forward dash, there is no penalty for performing a backdash anymore.
Spectate Delay
Introducing a new setting in the “System Settings” menu. Spectators can now control the amount of delay when spectating a match. Select “Quality” for a 3 second delay, or “Speed” for a 1 second delay. Players on Steam can still type the launch option to accurately set their delay.
Unified Competitive Map Pool
The competitive Map pool has been unified so that 1v1s and 2v2s are the same, and increased the pool from 7 to 9 Maps.
The full pool includes:
- Small Brawlhaven
- Demon Island
- Apocalypse
- Small Fortress of Lions
- Western Air Temple
- Miami Dome
- Mishima Dojo
- Small Terminus
- Halo
