Brawlhalla is a free platform fighter where up to eight players brawl on one stage. Matches are short, so a private room with friends can burn through dozens of them in an evening, and the memorable moments usually come from the very last hit: a combo you kept going by swapping weapons, a ring-out that sent your opponent flying off the edge of the stage, or a 1v1 you survived on your final stock. This guide shows how to record Brawlhalla with DOR, trim those moments into clips a few seconds long, and send them as a dor.gg link. Brawlhalla became a DOR supported game in an app update in October 2026.
Choosing scenes in a game full of short matches
DOR records Brawlhalla as a whole-session recording. From launching the game to closing it, the menus and every match continue as one video, and DOR does not detect ring-outs or wins to create clips automatically. You find and trim the scenes yourself, and in a fighting game a highlight rarely runs longer than 10 to 20 seconds. Rather than sending a full match, keep just the flow leading into the deciding hit so the person watching understands what happened right away. The basics of setting accurate start and end points are covered in how to trim game clips.
Steps to find and send a Brawlhalla finisher
- 1Leave DOR running and play as usualDOR is a free Windows app. When you launch Brawlhalla, it detects the game automatically and starts recording. Recording does not break between matches and continues until you close the game, so there is nothing to press while you fight.
- 2Remember only the match number of the big momentPlaying back-to-back in a private room, you quickly lose track of which match was which. When a great ring-out happens, tell your friend which match it was or jot a single number in your notes. That is enough.
- 3Use the results screen to find match boundariesWhen you close the game, the recording lands in the library as an mp4. Scrubbing through, a results screen appears at the end of each match and the Legend select screen comes before the next one, so count those screens to jump to the match you want.
- 4Trim around the moment the last stock goesIn the library's trim tool, set the end point where your opponent flies off screen and the match ends, and the start point five to ten seconds before that combo began. Including the run to pick up a weapon shows how the combo came together.
- 5Pick a ratio that keeps the stage edgesA ring-out is all about your opponent disappearing off the stage, and 9:16 cuts off so much of the sides that the launch direction may vanish. Use 16:9 as your default, and if you want it bigger on a phone, center it in 1:1.
- 6Send the link to your opponent and teammateWhen trimming finishes, you get a dor.gg link. Paste it to the friend you just beat along with a rematch request, or to your 2v2 partner as practice material for the next combo. They watch it in a browser without installing anything.
Scenes worth sending by mode, and the ratio that fits
| Mode | Scene worth sending | Ratio that fits |
|---|---|---|
| Ranked 1v1 | Winning a back-and-forth when you are both on your last stock | 16:9, so both edges of the stage are visible |
| Ranked 2v2 | Trapping one opponent with your teammate for a combined hit | 16:9, so all four positions are visible |
| Casual free-for-all | Surviving the chaos and launching two players back to back | 16:9 or 1:1 |
| Private room with friends | The deciding ring-out you send to the friend you just beat | 1:1, for a phone group chat |
| Capture the Flag | Sprinting out of the enemy side with the flag | 16:9, so the route is visible |
| Horde | Holding off the final wave together with friends | 16:9, the whole co-op scene |
Before you send a Brawlhalla clip
- The clip starts with the flow before the finishing hit and stops when the match ends.
- The launch direction and the edge of the stage are inside the frame.
- In crowded matches like free-for-all, your Legend is easy to spot in the first shot.
- Menus and the Legend select screen have been trimmed out.
- After a long night of matches, your drive still has well over 20GB free.
- You have considered whether it is fine for your opponent's name to appear.
How DOR records Brawlhalla
DOR is a free Windows desktop app. When you launch Brawlhalla, it detects the game automatically and saves the whole session until you close it as a single mp4. There are no per-match highlights or automatic clips, so set the start and end with the library's trim tool, choose 16:9, 9:16, or 1:1, and share it as a dor.gg link. Friends who open the link can play it right away in a browser, even on a phone, without the app. If you really need a vertical version, see how to make a vertical (9:16) game video for ways to keep the edges in view. To collect several days of ring-outs into one video, the browser-based DOR Studio, which needs no install, lets you merge videos and add effect templates and background music. Short matches add up over a night, so your drive fills fast, and recording stops automatically once free space drops below 20GB. If you are looking for people to join a 2v2 or a private room, the guide to finding game friends and duo partners can help.
