The devs over at Clash Royale have taken a stand against the leakers (and you should know by now what I think about leakers!) by leaking their own stuff. In a tweet posted a few minutes ago, the makers of the popular mobile er, clash ’em-up said:
And thus a whole lot of new changes were dropped into the game (which also explains a small spike in complaints of Clash Royale being down over the past hour or so.
Let’s have a look at what’s new and live in the latest version of Clash Royale
Clash Royale balance changes (Feb 2022)
Card changes
- Archer Queen – Down
- Golden Knight Down
- Giant Up
- Mini P.E.K.K.A Up
- Inferno Tower Up
- Musketeer Up
- Hunter Up
- Royal Hogs Down
- Ram Rider Down
- Balloon Balanced
- Prince Balanced
- Dark PrinceBalanced
You can see details of all the card changes here but we have picked out a few highlights
Archer Queen
- Move speed during ability: (Medium -> Slow)
The Archer Queen remains strong in the Arena… maybe a bit too much. By reducing her move speed during her ability, it won’t be as easy for her to reach a Tower and will lessen her bridge spamming potential.
Inferno Tower
- First hit speed: (+25%)
The Inferno Tower is one of the weakest buildings. A faster first hit speed means the beam will start charging faster, but also that switching between targets will be quicker.
Hunter
First hit speed: (+11%)
The most amazing mustache (and eyebrows) in the Arena is not in its best shape. This first hit speed boost should help him find his place in the meta.
