[Brawl Stars] Introduce yourself — where are you joining from?
Two of us tried the same thing and got different results, hence the thread. Two settings appear to interact in a way the menu does not hint at.
- welcome

The numbers look fine on paper, but it feels noticeably worse in practice. Corrections welcome, especially if I got a detail wrong.

Counterpoint: the difference is real but small enough that you may not notice it while playing.
Let us know which part worked.

Not the answer you want, but the trick is to change one thing at a time and actually note the result before touching anything else.

Counterpoint: that behaviour is intentional, even though it is poorly explained in-game.

I went through this last month. the defaults are conservative on purpose, so there is usually headroom to gain.

I went through this last month. the safe move is the reversible one — you can always undo it if it makes things worse.

For what it is worth, worth testing on a second account to rule out something profile-specific.

I went through this last month. it depends heavily on your specific setup, so take any single number with a grain of salt.

Quick correction to the above: check whether an overlay is running before blaming the game itself.

In my testing, do the cheap diagnostic first — it costs nothing and rules out half the causes.

Had the exact same issue. the defaults are conservative on purpose, so there is usually headroom to gain.
That fixed it for me, at least.

In my testing, ignore the loudest advice; the boring answer is usually the correct one here.
