Scary Doors Event: Can 80 Million Players Agree on Anything? (Spoiler: Probably Not)

Supercell just dropped the most chaotic community event in Brawl Stars history. Twenty doors, twenty rewards hidden behind them, but here's the catch - you can only open ten. And to make things even better, the entire community has to vote together on which doors to open while simultaneously grinding 80 million quests per day just to unlock the door keys.

Oh, and one of the doors literally deletes Mortis from the game for two days. Yeah, this is going to go well.

How the Scary Doors Event Actually Works (It's More Complicated Than It Should Be)

Here's the deal. Starting now through November 5th, you've got eight days to make ten critical decisions that'll determine whether you walk away with the Manga Kenji Hypercharge Skin (Lumi for free) or end up staring at your single gem reward wondering where it all went wrong.

The Daily Grind: 80 Million Quests or No Door For You

Every single day, the entire Brawl Stars community needs to collectively complete 80 million quests to earn a single door key. That's right - if the community slacks off, nobody gets to open any doors that day. Supercell added extra daily quests and special mega quests during the event to make this actually achievable, but still, you're relying on millions of random players to actually log in and play.

Realistically? The community will probably hit this goal most days. Brawl Stars has an active enough player base that 80 million quests across all players worldwide is doable. But there's always that chance...

Voting: Where Democracy Goes to Die

While everyone's grinding quests, you also need to vote in-game for which door the community opens next. Each door has hints about what might be inside, but "might" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here because some doors are straight-up traps.

Here's the kicker - on the final day (Day 8), you get to open THREE doors at the same time instead of just one. That's your last chance to grab the remaining good rewards or watch in horror as the community votes for sprays and single coins.

Think about this for a second. You need millions of players - from different countries, different skill levels, different priorities - to coordinate and agree on the optimal door opening strategy. Players who just want the free Lumi. Hardcore collectors chasing the Hypercharge Starr Drop. Trolls who just want to watch Mortis disappear. F2P players desperate for gems. Whales who don't care about any of this.

The official Brawl Talk literally warns you: vote smart or "you might end up alone, angry and with just one Gem." They know exactly what's about to happen.

The Rewards: What You're Actually Fighting Over

Let's break down what's actually behind these twenty doors, ranked from "absolutely must get" to "community meltdown if we waste a vote on this."

S-Tier: Don't You Dare Skip These

  • Manga Kenji Hypercharge Skin (Lumi for free) - This is the grand prize. A hypercharge skin that would normally cost you a chunk of gems, completely free. If the community doesn't prioritize this door, we've failed as a species.
  • Hypercharge Starr Drop - Guaranteed hypercharge. These are rare and expensive. Easy top-tier pick.
  • Lumi (Free Brawler) - Free brawler > almost everything else, especially for newer players or anyone missing Lumi.
  • 20 Gems - In a game where gems are premium currency, 20 free gems is actually solid. Way better than the joke rewards.

A-Tier: Pretty Good, Should Prioritize

  • 10 Random Starr Drops - Ten boxes of random loot. Not guaranteed value but decent odds of getting something useful.
  • Ultra Trophy Box - These can drop legendary skins and hypercharge skins. It's a lottery ticket but the potential payoff is massive. Worth the vote if you're feeling lucky.
  • 3 Pumpkin Boxes - Halloween-themed boxes from the Brawl-O-Ween event with exclusive seasonal content. If you're still hunting Halloween skins, this matters.

B-Tier: Useful But Not Exciting

  • 1000 Power Points - Progression resource. Helpful for maxing brawlers but not exactly thrilling.
  • 1000 Coins - Same deal. You'll use them, but you won't remember this moment fondly.
  • 10 Sushi Rolls - Event currency, depends on what's currently available in the sushi shop.
  • 500 Credits - Useful for the shop, but 500 isn't life-changing.
  • 1 Random Starr Drop - It's one box. Better than nothing but shouldn't be a priority.

C-Tier: Why Are These Even Options

  • 500 Power Points - Half of an already mediocre reward.
  • 200 Power Points - This is insulting.
  • 200 Coins - You'll earn this from like three matches.
  • Spray - Cosmetic. Nobody cares about sprays. Don't waste a vote.

???-Tier: The Mortis Door

  • Delete Mortis From The Game For Two Days - I don't even know where to rank this. Is it a reward? Is it a punishment? Depends entirely on whether you main Mortis or constantly get destroyed by Mortis players in Brawl Ball.

Let's talk about this door specifically because it's genuinely hilarious that Supercell added this. For two entire days, Mortis just ceases to exist. Removed from the game. Brawl Ball players who are sick of getting trick-shotted on are going to vote for this in droves. Meanwhile, Mortis mains are organizing in Discord servers right now to make sure this door never gets touched.

Personally? I think the community should save this for the final day's three-door opening just for maximum chaos. Imagine ending the event by nuking Mortis from existence. Beautiful.

The Optimal Door Strategy (If Everyone Actually Cooperates)

Here's what the community should realistically prioritize if we want to maximize value and minimize salt:

First Priority - Days 1-4:

  • Manga Kenji Hypercharge Skin (Day 1 or 2 - get this locked in early)
  • Hypercharge Starr Drop
  • 20 Gems
  • Lumi (Free Brawler)

Second Priority - Days 5-7:

  • 10 Random Starr Drops
  • Ultra Trophy Box
  • 3 Pumpkin Boxes

Final Day (3 Doors) - Day 8:

  • 1000 Power Points
  • 1000 Coins
  • Delete Mortis (for the memes and the chaos)

That's ten doors, hitting all the premium rewards while leaving all the garbage (single gem, 200 coins, spray) untouched. If the community can coordinate this, everyone walks away happy except Mortis mains.

How To Actually Maximize Your Rewards: The Action Plan

Forget theory - here's what you need to DO every single day to make sure you get the best rewards from this event.

Daily Quest Grinding Strategy

The community needs 80 million quests completed every day. That sounds massive, but it's distributed across millions of players worldwide. Your job is to pull your weight and grab the extra quest opportunities Supercell added for this event.

Here's your daily routine:

  • Log in ASAP when quests refresh - The 80 million quest counter runs for 24 hours. The earlier you complete your quests, the better the community's chances of hitting the goal.
  • Complete ALL your daily quests, not just the easy ones - Every quest counts toward the 80 million. That annoying "Win 3 matches with X brawler" quest? Do it. The community needs every single quest completion.
  • Check for Mega Quests - Supercell added special mega quests during this event that give multiple quest completions. These are worth way more than regular quests for hitting the daily goal.
  • Play matches even after quests are done - Some events give passive quest credit just for playing. Every match helps.
  • Focus on 3v3 modes over Solo - 3v3 matches tend to have more quest types available (team wipes, assists, specific objectives). More quest variety = more you can complete.

Voting Strategy: When and How

Voting smartly isn't just about knowing which door has better rewards - it's about timing and understanding community behavior.

When to vote each day:

  • Check the in-game vote EARLY - As soon as the previous door opens, voting begins for the next door. Check what's trending within the first few hours.
  • Don't vote immediately - Wait 4-6 hours to see where the community is leaning. If 60% of votes are on one door, that's probably going to win. Add your vote there to avoid "wasting" it on a door that won't get picked.
  • Vote for consensus, not your preference - This is key. Even if you personally want Door #7, if the community is voting for Door #3, vote for Door #3. A good reward everyone gets beats your favorite reward nobody gets.
  • Final day is different - On Day 8 when you pick 3 doors at once, the voting dynamics change. Multiple doors can win, so there's more room for splitting votes across good options.

Reading the door hints:

Each door has a hint about what might be inside. Supercell said some are traps, which means the hints might be misleading. Here's how to read them:

  • Look for concrete imagery - If a door shows a character icon or gem symbol, it's probably legit
  • Vague or scary imagery = potential trap - Doors with skulls, question marks, or ominous symbols could be hiding the garbage rewards
  • Check community screenshots - Players will post the door layouts on social media. Compare notes with other players before voting

Maximizing Your Giveaway Odds

Ten players win 1 million gems each. Here's how to actually increase your chances instead of just hoping:

  • Post EVERY single day - They said posting daily increases your odds. That means they're either entering you multiple times OR they're filtering for engaged players. Either way, 8 posts > 1 post.
  • Use BOTH hashtags - #ScaryDoors AND #BrawlStars. Missing either one might disqualify your entry.
  • Make your screenshots interesting - They're picking the "best" entries. A screenshot of your vote with a funny caption or creative edit is more likely to catch their attention than a bland screenshot.
  • Post across multiple platforms - They didn't specify which social media to use. Post on Instagram, Twitter/X, TikTok, etc. More platforms = more entries.
  • Tag @BrawlStars - While they didn't require it, tagging the official account makes your post easier for them to find when picking winners.

What If The Community Votes Wrong?

Let's be real - there's a high chance the community screws this up. Here's what to do if things go sideways:

  • Days 1-3 are critical - If the community wastes early votes on trash rewards, you can't fix it later. Be extra vocal about voting for S-tier rewards early.
  • Use social media to coordinate - Post your voting strategy, share what doors you think should be prioritized. Community coordination happens on Reddit, Twitter, Discord, and TikTok.
  • Accept losses quickly - If Day 2's door ends up being 1 coin, don't dwell on it. Focus on salvaging the remaining 8 doors.
  • The final 3-door pick is your safety net - Even if the first 7 days go badly, you can grab 3 decent rewards on the final day if you coordinate well.

The "Is This Rigged?" Question (And Why Supercell Actually Addressed It)

In the official Brawl Talk announcement, they literally predicted that players would scream "RIGGED! GREEDYCELL!" the moment doors started opening. So they did something genuinely smart - they pre-recorded every single door opening and showed a compilation clip of all twenty results.

Watch the announcement video here and you can see the proof that all rewards are already determined:

When the community opens a door in-game, Supercell will release the corresponding pre-recorded video showing that exact door's reward. You can compare it to the compilation clip to verify it matches. Honestly? This is a clever way to shut down conspiracy theories before they start.

Is it still possible they could manipulate results? Technically yes, but they'd have to re-edit and re-upload videos on the fly which seems like way more effort than just running the event legitimately. I'm calling this one legit.

The 1 Million Gem Giveaway (Because Of Course There Is)

Not satisfied with just the door rewards? Supercell's throwing 1 million gems at ten random players, because why not make this event even more insane.

Here's how to enter:

  • Take a screenshot of your door votes each day
  • Share it on social media (Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, wherever)
  • Use hashtags #ScaryDoors and #BrawlStars
  • Post every day for better odds

They'll pick winners after the event ends on November 5th. Ten players, 1 million gems each. That's enough gems to literally buy everything in the shop multiple times over. The winners will basically never need to spend money on Brawl Stars again.

Is it a lottery with terrible odds? Yes. Should you enter anyway because it costs you nothing but thirty seconds per day? Also yes. Worst case scenario, you get some extra social media engagement. Best case, you become a gem billionaire.

If you don't want to rely on giveaway luck and prefer guaranteed gems, you already know where to go - our gem generator doesn't require winning any lotteries.

Why This Event Is Actually Genius (And Also Kinda Stressful)

Look, I'm going to be real with you. This event is brilliant from a game design perspective. Supercell created a system that:

  • Forces daily engagement (80 million quests don't complete themselves)
  • Creates genuine community coordination challenges
  • Generates massive social media buzz (everyone's going to be posting their votes and reactions)
  • Builds suspense over eight days instead of dumping rewards all at once
  • Gives players agency while maintaining scarcity (can't have everything)

But it's also stressful as hell if you actually care about the outcomes. You're watching other players vote in real-time, hoping they're making smart choices, knowing that if enough people vote wrong, you're stuck with a spray instead of the Hypercharge Skin you wanted.

It's basically a social experiment wrapped in a Halloween event. Can millions of players coordinate effectively when there's limited information and conflicting incentives? We're about to find out.

My prediction? Days 1-3 will see decent coordination as the community rallies around obvious top-tier rewards. Days 4-6 will get messier as disagreements emerge. Day 7 will be chaos. And Day 8's three-door finale will either be a triumphant victory lap or a complete disaster depending on whether we saved the good doors or already burned through them.

Your 8-Day Action Checklist

Here's exactly what you need to do every single day until November 5th to maximize your rewards from this event:

Every Day (Days 1-7):

  • Morning: Complete all daily quests ASAP - Log in early, knock out every quest. Don't wait until evening when the 24-hour window is almost up.
  • Midday: Check voting trends - Open the game, see which door is leading in votes. If it's a good reward, add your vote. If it's garbage, try to swing votes on social media.
  • Evening: Screenshot your vote - Take a clear screenshot of your vote selection, post it on Instagram/Twitter/TikTok with #ScaryDoors and #BrawlStars.
  • Before bed: Play a few more matches - Even after quests are done, keep playing to help the community hit 80 million total.

Day 8 (Final Day - Three Doors):

  • Vote carefully - You get three doors at once. Coordinate with the community to grab the three best remaining rewards.
  • Post your final screenshot - This is your last giveaway entry, make it count.
  • Watch the door openings - Supercell will release videos showing all the rewards. See if you made out like a bandit or got screwed by bad community votes.

After November 5th:

  • Check your socials for DMs - Winners get contacted directly by Supercell on the platform they posted on.
  • Claim your rewards in-game - Whatever doors the community opened, your rewards will be waiting in your inbox.

Bottom Line: What Actually Matters

This event comes down to three things:

1. Complete your quests every single day. If the community fails to hit 80 million quests even once, that's a wasted day with no door opening. Don't be the reason we fail.

2. Vote with the community, not against it. Your individual preference doesn't matter if you're the only one voting for it. Check trends, vote for consensus picks, secure the good rewards.

3. Post for the giveaway. It takes 30 seconds per day for a chance at 1 million gems. The odds are terrible but the effort is minimal.

Will the community coordinate perfectly? Probably not. Will some days end with trash rewards? Almost certainly. But if you follow this guide, at least you'll know you did everything possible to maximize what you got out of this chaotic social experiment.

Now get in the game, complete your quests, vote smart, and pray that millions of random strangers can work together long enough to get that free Manga Kenji Hypercharge Skin.

Event ends November 5th. Eight days. Ten doors. One community. Good luck.
