Quirk Brawl

Across every level of @United States Of America hero competition — from youth leagues to professional championships — one term defines the heart of the game: Quirk Brawl.

The official combat format of the @National Collegiate Quirk Association (NCQA), Hero Academies under @American Hero Academies Organization (AHAO), and the @National Quirk Fighting League (NQFL), the Quirk Brawl represents the perfect blend of sport, strategy, and controlled combat. It is the proving ground where heroes sharpen their instincts, test their power, and forge unity through the clash of Quirks.

Match Format

A Quirk Brawl is a regulated 6-on-6 team sparring match designed to measure combat skill, tactical awareness, and team coordination under strict safety and ethical rules.

Roster Size: 12 players (6 active, 6 reserves).
Match Type: 6 active players per side, fighting within a regulation Meta Arena.
Victory Condition: 1 point awarded per takedown; the first team to reach 6 points wins the match.
Match Duration: Up to 40 minutes, divided into two 20-minute halves.
Officials: Certified Hero Bureau referees oversee every match to ensure non-lethal Quirk use and fair play.

Each takedown reflects precision and teamwork rather than raw power — emphasizing skillful Quirk application and controlled engagement.

Scoring and Statistics

Every Quirk Brawl is meticulously recorded, with official stat-tracking systems logging player and team performance metrics.

Key statistics include:

Takedowns (TD): Total opponents incapacitated during the match.
Revives (RV): Successful recoveries or healing interventions by support heroes.
Assists (AST): Coordinated attacks or set-ups leading to a teammate’s takedown.

Advanced analytics are used at higher levels (NCQA and NQFL) to evaluate reflex time, Quirk efficiency, and synergy ratings — data that scouts and agencies rely on to recruit future stars.

Substitutions and Strategy

Teams can alternate lineups between matches or even mid-game to exploit tactical matchups. Coaches manage both starter and reserve players, ensuring that team balance — between offense, defense, and support — remains optimal.

Each team is granted three timeouts per match, used to perform lineup swaps or reset strategy. However, specific restrictions apply:

Substitutions can only occur before a knockout or point reset.
Once a timeout is used, the coach cannot call another until a player is down.
Teams cannot replace a downed player mid-round; they must adapt and fight with their remaining lineup until a revive or point conclusion.

This system introduces a layer of high-stakes strategy — forcing coaches to balance risk, endurance, and timing in the heat of battle.

The Role of Healers

Among the most vital and vulnerable roles in any Quirk Brawl is the Healer. Support-type heroes capable of reviving or stabilizing teammates can reclaim lost points by returning a downed ally to active play.

A successful revive not only nullifies an opponent’s takedown but can completely shift the flow of a match. As a result, healers are often prime targets, drawing relentless attention from enemy strikers and assassins.

Protecting one’s healer is both a tactical and moral duty — the mark of a disciplined, coordinated team. In the professional circuits, entire defensive formations are built around ensuring their survival.

The Essence of the Brawl

The Quirk Brawl is more than a sport — it is a reflection of modern heroism itself.
It teaches restraint, strategy, and cooperation under pressure. It rewards unity over ego, and skill over sheer power.

Whether it’s a group of children learning teamwork in the AQU, a collegiate hero earning a scholarship through the NCQA, or professional icons battling under the lights of the NQFL Super Hero Bowl, every Quirk Brawl tells the same story: the pursuit of greatness through discipline, courage, and trust.

In the arena, there are no villains — only rivals, resolve, and the will to rise again.
