Apart from the brawlers’ names and their significance as to how their names refer to a quality, there are brawlers which have connections in-game as in a trio or a group of three or sometimes four brawlers who come from a certain theme. These themes a sometimes related to the real and the virtual world. Some brawlers are an inspiration of a character in real or fiction. So, we will see further some brawlers and how they have any sort of connections or any easter egg or assumptions about their connection.
Colt: Colt’s name is derived from the inventor of revolvers, Samuel Colt and Colt wields two revolvers. Also, he is a typical cowboy with slick boots, which makes a reference to Disney Pixar’s Toy Story movie’s Woody who is also a cowboy and seems to mention of snakes in his boots talking about his boots which a cowboy shows-off.
Bull: Bull is a shotgun wielding brawler who can go berserk and charge an enemy by hitting and demolishing any barrier or obstacle. Supercell has their second strategy base defence game called Boom Beach which has 4 heroes to lead the war, out of them one hero’s name is Pvt. Bullit who also wields a shotgun and charges against enemy buildings. His name has the initial Bull – it and his appearance is similar to Bull, as he has the same side burn facial hair but no moustache kept. His belt has a bull emblem while Bull has a bull skull on his belt. Both wield a shotgun with three barrels and both have damage tolerant characteristics and can go berserk.
Fang: Fang is a martial artist specialised in Chinese kung-fu and he happens to work at the movie studios of Braw stars i.e Brawlywood. Fang is a reference to the Hollywood Chinese actor Jackie Chan who is involved in acting in films related to kung-fu and Jackie Chan also admitted in an interview that his father told him the truth of his real name being Fang (Datuk Fang Shilong).
Stu: Stu is a stunt robot brawler and he runs on a wheel. The prefix of the word Stunt is from where Stu’s name is derived and also can be used as a short form of the name Stuart. A Disney XD named Kick Buttowski is of a years old boy who is into doing stunts with his skateboards and he wears a cape and a helmet making him look like a stunt circus crew. Similarly, Stu also wears a helmet and a cape and since skateboards are on wheels, Stu is designed to have a wheel. The creator and author of Kick Buttowski was a big fan of stunts and the popular stuntmen of his time, one being Evel Knievel who became the inspiration for Kick Buttowski whose original name would be Kick Knievel.
Belle: Belle is the gold arm gang leader in Brawl stars and known to be the most notorious outlaw for stealing. Belle is a reference to a real-life notorious woman of the past who also stole horses. Belle Starr, known as an American outlaw, who gained national notoriety after her death. She was also given the title, “The Bandit Queen of the Dallas”.
Sam: Sam is the brawn behind the brains of the gold arm gang and criminal partner being Belle- the mastermind in the robberies. In reference, Sam Starr was a real man who married Belle Starr in 1880 and became partners in crime forming their own gang with Belle being the brains.
Crow: Although this is an assumption, it is worth mentioning where this reference could be possible. Crow is a brawler whose appearance is that of a crow, unlike Bull who is a human. Crow throws three poison filled sharp feathers which poisons his enemies when hit. During his super, he jumps and lands from one place to another, shooting his feathers in all directions at the time of jumping and at the time of landing. He references to an anime character from a Japanese anime called Naruto wherein he is the outlaw elder brother of the protagonist’s (Naruto Uzumaki) forever friend and rival (Sasuke Uchiha). His name is Itachi Uchiha who became a rogue ninja and is seen practising with his kunai blades in the forest. In the scene, Itachi trains himself to throw at the target twice, while jumping and before landing. Correspondingly, he has a special power where he can make a clone which disperses into a flock of crows and other powers with interference of Crows, since he has some connection with crows throughout the Naruto series. Also, as an Uchiha clan’s member, he along with Sasuke and other Uchiha family members, do have connections with cats and if you see Crow from Brawl stars, you can also observe a rogue cat logo behind his retro outfit jacket, which could symbolize Rogue Itachi Uchiha and for the fact that Crow is an assassin or maybe a ninja, judging by the way he runs.
Sprout: Sprout is a robot protecting a plant that just sprouted. Sprout has a super of making walls of plants. Sprout is a reference to a Disney Pixar’s movie named Wall-E and Wall- E is another robot who has been depicted to take care of plants. There is a correlation as in Wall-E takes care of a sprout in a shoe and Sprout makes Walls of plants.
El Primo: El Primo is a luchador brawler, or a Mexican wrestler who has a hard body and punches his opponents as his attack, and flies to fall hard on his enemies dealing massive damage to the enemies and to the grounds. A luchador always wears a mask that does not cover his eyes and mouth, but the head and such is the case with El Primo. If you are a fan of WWE, you might have come across a famous Wrestler who also is a Mexican luchador called Rey Mysterio. His signature and finisher move involves flying or jumping from the rope to hit the opponent on the ground. That signifies the style of luchadors.
