Cosmetic items, profile icons, and in-game resources are rewarded for advancing in the casual modes, competitive modes, and for collecting rewards when all brawlers are unlocked.
The in-game shop offers “free” items in-between sections of paid items to encourage the use of in-game currencies and real money
Yes, without spending money on the game at all a new player would have to play daily and miss no rewards in order to max out an account, and cosmetics are added much faster than resources are given to obtain them
Loot boxes offer the random chance for different in-game rewards like resources, cosmetics, and even new brawlers or abilities for existing brawlers.
If you lose enough matches at a low trophy range or start playing a newly unlocked brawler, the game places you in a match against bots with less available power than actual players in order to increase the likelihood of winning for poorly skilled players.
Money can be spent on gems which are then able to purchase in-game offers for progression resources and new brawlers
The in-game shop has collections for different themed cosmetic items. There is a #/# marker for how many items you have collected which encourages completion of a set.
People who have been playing for longer have stronger brawlers and more unique or rare cosmetic items than those who are new to the game.
There are seasonal offers of brawl pass items which included limited time offers for skins and cosmetic items, which are displayed right after opening the game on the first day of a new season and immediately after opening the in-game shop.
The brawl pass resets monthly so this could be considered an optional monthly fee.
