Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl: December 13 Patch Now Live on PC, Coming Soon to Consoles

A latest new patch for Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl (12-13-2021) is now live on PC, and will be rolling out to consoles soon.


There are six characters in total who received changes in the latest update: Aang, Toph, Sandy, Leonardo, Invader Zim, and newcomer Garfield.

While the last few updates have included more overall balance changes, the latest one on PC appears to focus more on gameplay and visual glitches present in the game though they will still improve some characters like Garfield and Zim.

You can check out the full patch notes for the new update below:

  • General

- Added Sweet Dreams as a legal stage for competitive matches.
- Fixed issue where character images would show a white box behind them.
- Fixed an issue that made The Flying Dutchman’s Ship stage show visual errors.
- Fixed issue that created an invalid state where players had to restart the game after experiencing a network error when entering “Quick Play”.
- Improvements have been made to the matchmaking algorithm and now the competitive matchmaking should be much faster.
- Fixed visual bug with Oblina when performing get up attack with her alt costume.
- Fixed issue where effects animations wouldn’t be cut off as expected when entering the results screen.
- Overall improvements to the netcode functionalities.

  • Character fixes

Zim

- Zim's up special now reaches the correct vertical height.
- Gir now faces the expected direction when being redirected.
- Gir now explodes when z-dropped.
- Gir no longer despawns after a set time.
- Gir now immediately falls through sinking terrain. (Prevents bug where Gir couldn’t be respawned if trapped in quicksand)

Leonardo

- Fixed bug where Leonardo’s mid special release animations were slower than intended, causing hitboxes to appear behind him.
- Leonardo's Up Aerial now uses the correct animation.

Sandy

- Sandy's lasso comes out correctly in the air now.
- Sandy's lasso reel-in animation is sped up so opponents are released in front of Sandy as expected.

Toph

- Toph's neutral special fire animation comes out correctly in the air now.

Garfield

- Garfield's light down hits aerial opponents now.

Aang

- Aang now rolls the correct directions.

Yes, You Can Play as Garfield in 'Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl' on Mondays

Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl recently developed a love for lasagna and a hatred of Mondays when the game welcomed Garfield, the memetic orange cat originally created by Jim Davis as its first free DLC character. However, within hours of Garfield being added to Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl's roster of characters, a meme went viral suggesting that Garfield would not be a playable character on Mondays. Now, GameMill Entertainment, the game's publisher has cleared up any confusion!


In a Tweet posted today (Monday, December 13), GameMill confirmed that Garfield will not be a locked-in character every Monday, allowing fans to continue to choose and play as the feline on Mondays just like every other day of the week.

"Just to confirm in case there was any confusion – you can absolutely play as @Garfield in @NickBrawlGame today and every Monday moving forward," GameMill Tweeted.

Garfield made his way into the Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl arena on December 9. By throwing pie and setting Pooky the teddy bear, Garfield is quite an effective trap character. The theme of Monday being a bad day is a prevalent theme in the Garfield series. Garfield just thinking about Mondays ended up becoming an attack for him during gameplay in the form of "Thrashing Thoughts." Garfield is the perfect foe to SpongeBob, who actually loves Mondays.


Canonically speaking, it would actually make sense for this lazy cat to refuse to partake in Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl matches every Monday. However, this would not necessarily be a good thing from a gameplay perspective. It would certainly be unfair to lock players out of playing this character at certain times if they wanted to dedicate the time towards maining him. Furthermore, this would also cause issues for tournament organizers in the event an event was held on a Monday.

Nickelodeon All-Star Brawl is out now for consoles and PC.
