Support brawlers in Brawl Stars

Heals, shields or boosts the team rather than carrying alone. Here's how Smart Draft defines the support role, how the draft assistant uses it, and every brawler who plays it.

What a support does

Supports keep teammates alive or make them stronger with healing, shields, speed and similar effects. They rarely win fights alone, so they're drafted next to the brawlers they enable.

Poco, for example, is usually picked alongside one or two tanks. Mobility matters too: Max is fast enough to run from assassins, which is why the author rates her the strongest support.

Roles can depend on the map as well: Kit is mostly a support, but on closed maps Kit is played as an assassin.
