Great fun! It changed my usual water skill bar to a more fire based, wanted to try for a while (yeah I know, what was I waiting for? )
Though my impression is that it is higly dependent on the luck of the draw, whether you have a "good" team. Did 7 wins thanks to a great player managing the team. Even in the last game, we were only four and keeping well with 8 kills.
I guess that it's a lesson from PvP: coordination is essential. Like in the army .

It was fun having a new look and animations, but the fighting bored me to tears. It would have been better picking your own teams and coordinating with them.

I tried mesmer and it is by far the best build, shatter enchant counters the AoD sin, empathy makes nub warriors kill themselves energy surge and interupts screw with all the casters, very easy to play as mesmer

I had fun with it. I used a pvp ritualist (I don't really play ritualists), and I managed to get a real good team on my first try. We got like 8 flawless and 24 consecutive wins before I decided to quit due to boredom. There were even a few matches when we were one man down.

My thoughts - second day into the Brawl
first day I was happily searing my opponents and steaming them and gotten away with it in many consecutive wins
second day into the brawl, pretty different as a lot of players has gotten a hang of the skill bars, now you have 50/50% chance of encountering a good assassin who knows to interrupt your steaming and knock you down. warriors now know not to get close to you when they gets steam. (speaking as an ele)
There are many good monk with the pre-assign smiting build, they also manage to heal their team mates while smiting and are much harder to steam them to death than warrior.
I only hope they have included "throw dirt" for the ranger skill bar, that would make the rangers skill set sort of invincible if you know how to use it. i would say take out pin down as the map isn't that big to need you to pin down any opponent. Ranger can be quite deadly to the ele as they have 2 interrupt skills. be smart, don't run into an elementalists who has full energy bar thinking you can take them down, or you'll be dead even with the 2 interrupts.
I must say i do not know how to use the ritualist skill bar yet, but some good ritualist players have manage to use it quite effectively and will render you dead within seconds (at 5k pings that is, stupid laggy IP)
so overall, I think the Costume Brawl are very successful.
Lastly, I still say read the skill bar, and go in with the profession that you know how to play the most.
BE COURTEOUS! don't shout at a level 3 in the brawl because they are low level, I think they become the hero/hench, meaning they have the same skill and energy and health as the rest of the players. (i am saying this because there's an incident where there's this player who shouted (caps) at a level 14 aksing why they had enter the game ??)
Happy days!

I tried the monk build and it works just fine, I'm not sure why people think it sucks they can hold their own against alot of the classed and if you go into melee range and use smite hex/condition you can release a steady stream of armour ignoring pbaoe damage.

The reward are there for the fun of it, nothing more.
And if you did look a bit what some of the content from the trick or treat bags can be sold for, you would not come with such a silly statement.

Did you happen to see how often ToT bags drop in pve, ay any rate i'd find costume brawl the slowest way to get ToT bags.
only downside would be no gamer points.. but a lot of people are probaly not to fussed about that

Apparently, you haven't noticed that you get like 1000 bathazar faction per game. Compared to the rewards for other forms of PvP like RA/TA, costume brawl is actually way better (more faction, points towards a title with every win, not just every 5, AND a special holiday item).

I guess many people here cannot unlock or do anything with faction anymore.
I would like to donate my excess faction to the balthazar fund for new players...^^
