My thoughts on the most recent balance changes:
Post Body

Resistance Gear ---> Vision Gear

-Honestly I really like this change. It will be quite interesting to see in bushy maps and I'm almost 100% certain this will be better than the old Resistance Gear.

Surge Rework:

-Very well done on Supercell's part! Although his 1st star power still needs to be changed, this is a huge, yet incredibly great step in the right direction. Props to Supercell for removing that toxic teleport gadget. It was SO broken in Solo Showdown, and I'm glad 750 SD won't be a cancerous Surge fest anymore (at least I hope not). 

Gale:

-Again, a very nice change. I am glad they came to a consensus on an equilibrium. I don't have much else for this change except that Twister still needs a nerf.

Eve:

-Contrary to Surge and Gale's changes, her changes were less adherent to the actual issue with Eve, that being her excess hatchlings. All in all, a decent change however.

Fang:

-I feel like they nerfed Fang just as I envisioned it to be. Definitely sizable, but reasonable nerfs.

Bryon:

-Absolutely perfect change, enough said.

Spike:

-I think the HP nerf to his 2nd gadget was a little overkill, but was an absolutely long overdue nerf.

Squeak: 

-I'm glad they are starting to actually provide Squeak with some love. He has just never been that great in the meta, and both gadgets were just awful. I'm glad they apprehended this issue as soon as they did. 

Lou:

-I will respectfully argue that these changes alone aren't enough, but it was desperately what he needed. I still think he needs more damage for how thin his projectiles are, but I think he will be in an OK spot. 

Bo:

-Great change as it was typically very difficult to land shots with Bo consistently. I am also more thankful that Supercell plans on changing Bo even more in the near future, to make him way less of a noob stomper.

Bibi:

-I don't really mind these changes, but I don't think they were necessarily needed either. She was already a very strong but solid pick on Brawl Ball and Gem Grab, and is arguably one of the more annoying brawlers in the game.

Griff:

-I solely believe that these are some of the least effective changes in this set of balances. The Business Resilience buff was too small and should be at least 20%, and he will still rely way too much on KTC to be viable. I do understand that his baseline unload speed was buffed, and KTC was nerfed, but It's just not going to be enough. KTC just needs to be baseline at this point, as it will always be the better star power, no matter how much you try to balance it.

Conclusion:

I am agitated that SC yet again ignored brawlers like Jacky, Edgar, and Penny, who desperately need reworks by the way. They also have yet to rebalance the majority of star powers and gadgets throughout the game. Overall however, almost all of these changes are great, and will reshape the meta once more, in a beneficial way.
