I'm asking the above question aloud after reading Supercell's tweet which announced the interview of Brawlstars General Manager Frank Keienburg.
More game devs in the kitchen means more treats for our players! Brawl Stars General Manager, @ftmkeienburg, gave a talk at Pocket Gamer Connects London on how the Brawl Stars team has grown and how it's a reflection of how Supercell is evolving to meet player needs.

What size was the team in 2020 and how big is it now? What do you feel has changed the most about the team?
In summer 2020 the Brawl Stars team was just over 20 people strong. We’ve just crossed 45 people working 100% on the game now, with most of them being in Helsinki. We still try to maintain some of our core pillars: trust, empowerment, collaboration and open communication.
What changed is that we created clearer responsibilities for individuals and sub-cells within the team, introduced more leads (who are still following the servant leadership principles) and in general put a bit more emphasis on production. The improved structure and more leadership within the team also enabled us to add some juniors to the mix. We are even looking to add the first full-time producer to the team… I know, crazy…!
