Balance Changes
Balances will be live on Tuesday, July 7, 2020. Discuss on Reddit
Fisherman (Buff)
Before | After | |
---|---|---|
Anchor Charge Up Speed -13% | 1.5 sec | 1.3 sec |
Hit Speed -13% | 1.5 sec | 1.3 sec |
DPS +15% | 105 | 123 |
- Fisherman’s usage rate has been low in recent seasons, and the Clash Royale balance team wishes to give him a nudge.
- By focusing on what makes the card unique — his pulling mechanic — the updated Fisherman will charge his anchor faster while gaining higher DPS (Damage Per Second).
Zappies (Rework v2)
Before | After | |
---|---|---|
Damage +14% | 84 | 96 |
Hit Speed +5% | 2 sec | 2.1 sec |
DPS +9% | 42 | 46 |
- Zappies got a rework in Season 8 but their usage remains low.
- By increasing their damage, they will now be able to 2-hit minions.
- Their slower Hit Speed makes them less likely to get into “stun-locking” when you play against them.
- The combination of the damage increase and lower hit speed results in an overall DPS increase.
Skeleton Dragons (Nerf)
Before | After | |
---|---|---|
Damage -6% | 142 | 133 |
- Overall, the Clash Royale team is happy with this newly released card.
- But Skeleton Dragons’ high Win Rates and Use Rates suggest that a nerf is in order. (This Dragon Duo has higher WR and UR than Fireball in challenges)
- Reducing their damage will require 1 more hit to kill a Barbarian.
Firecracker (Nerf)
Before | After | |
---|---|---|
Pushback Distance -25% | 2.0 | 1.5 |
- Firecracker is a great counter to melee troops. Her ability to push herself away from troops that she is attacking makes her one of the most challenging cards to deal with.
- She is getting a pushback nerf, which should allow her to keep her unique mechanism while giving melee troops a chance to hit her back.
- In a recent poll that we ran, 80% of the users who voted found Firecracker to be the most annoying card in the game. (Note: the balance team did not make this change based on this poll. We mentioned our poll here mainly to show that players also feel that a nerf is deserved.)
- We know that that the Firecracker nerf will make SaintBelikin a very happy man.
