I always find it interesting looking at certain cards' win rates. Classic logbait seems like a fairly solid deck, but princess & gob barrel don't have that high of win rates respectively. However, I play enough very random decks that just have goblin barrel or princess, without having other log bait cards, which must skew the data at least a little bit. Using gob barrel alone, more so than princess I'd say, is a great way to lose. It's essentially giving your opponent a +1 trade every time it's thrown haphazardly at the *princess tower. I know we have sites like royaleapi, but I'd love to see the official SC win rate for a deck like classic logbait.

With all that being said, the princess buff is definitely very noticeable. I had almost completely forgotten about the gob barrel buff, although I guess it's helped a little bit at least

Edit: princess, not king

The Log Bait win rate depends on the League: it's a bit strong in the lower tiers (around 52-54%) but after 5000 — perfect 49-50%.

The other players are probably over leveled. Prince might be slightly powerful, though, and I could see like a 1-2% nerf to him

Agree with /u/MM_Dyslexic, these cards have a win rate of 49-50% throughout the Ladder. They are a bit over-leveled in comparison to others, but ever so slightly.

I thought trophy progression was modified so a playet wins more than they lose in 1v1. My experience has been opposite. In app customer service is really bad. They just ignore

Have you reached the Legendary Arena? Trophy Gates work up to 4000 Trophies.

Hey there!

With the new Season and Balance Update around the corner, let’s step back and take a look at the May Balance Update. Did it breathe new life into underused cards? Did the changes shift the meta? Did they break the game?!

Universally speaking, our balance changes pursue several goals: make unpopular cards more viable, tweak the extremes (if there are any) and overall provide more interesting choices for your decks. Our overall goal is to make the game more diverse and therefore, more fun.


DATA DEEPDIVE!

Dark Prince

Dark Prince is hands down the all-star of this month. The buff to his Attack Range and Area Damage Radius made him less susceptible to troop attacks, and this is reflected in the stats.

Dark Prince has received a huge boost in usage throughout all the game modes, climbing from 4% to 12% usage in Classic Challenges and up to 16% in Grand Challenges.

Thank you for this response. I am not the original poster but what I would love to hear is the main thing the team is working on for the next update. My favorite period in Clash Royale was I think December 2017 until April 2018, and not because the Clan War update got delayed a lot, what the community got of course pretty angry about, but because we knew the team was working on Clan Wars. So everyone was making expectations about how Clan Wars could look and that was on Reddit just an amazing time. That update didn't even have a lot of sneak peeks like the December 2017 update but it was still cool so sneak peeks are definitely not the most important thing for an update but at least knowing what you are working on could really help building hype up.

Thank you for reading!

thank you for the feedback! i will take that on board. much appreciated

you're right, the balance update will drop on monday 3rd june. and the announcement will come on this friday! i'm excited/scared...

we do take community input into balance changes, but it is not the only factor. (we even had 2 polls on balance changes before that we didn't feel was the right choice to continue with)
seth wrote a post here that goes more in-depth if you want to know exactly how we do balance change playtesting.

Beautiful artwork! Love the art style.

Hey there! This happens since Goblin Brawler is oriented towards the closest tower, not bridge. I think this is rather logical, although it does look a bit weird.

All best wishes.

ok so yeh the way you've described:

Best season: 5802 trophies. Rank 3773

Previous season: 6438 trophies. Rank 4393

is incorrect - we've added it to our bug list. thanks for flagging it up!

Finally we get the answer now. Thank you!

However after checking, I still can see some people's best season is based on their best globe ranking, even their previous season trophy is much higher. So it is kind of confusing, as we seems have two ways to show the best season. Not able to post images in reply, otherwise I would do it.

Will the upcoming season reset make all players' best season based on their highest trophy? :O

Drew, but I have a ton of people in my friend list where this doesn’t occurred.

Example.

Best season: 5802 trophies. Rank 3773

Previous season: 6438 trophies. Rank 4393

Why this players old stats were not changed but only from people who not reached a ranking at all? In this scenario his rank is the determining factor for best season. Not trophies.

You can also look at the top players list. None of their old ranking was replaced even though they had higher trophies than before.

ahh i see what you mean. i thought you were referring to the example in your post (no ranking & higher trophies replacing lower trophies but a ranking).

the example you've just given sounds like a bug then. i'll go chat to the team and see why there is this discrepancy and if it's working as intended

thanks for the explanation!

this is really cool! can't wait to see what else you can come up with.

Is our ranking gone for good? Please let us know if there's any update, thx! u/Supercell_Daria u/Supercell_Drew

hey thanks for the ping - so after checking with the rest of the team, the answer is that this isn't a bug.

trophy placement takes precedence over legacy global leaderboard rankings. it does not make sense for your best season to actually be lower than a higher result (in your screenshot, the after has higher trophies than the 'before'.)

i know people are disappointed that they lose their highest global ranking in favour of the new trophies but unfortunately it is the way that the leaderboards work - it is always based on your highest trophy ranking.
the trophy inflation through the increased leagues caused these older rankings to become smaller (even though the ranking was higher).

i definitely think that this was something we overlooked in our communication beforehand, and we could have made players aware of this before the change. that's totally on me and i apologise for that.

i know it's not the answer that you wanted to hear but i hope i h...

The main cause of frustration is that "Sparky Bot" that was introduced towards the back end of last year. Ever since then I have not been able to get through to an actual agent ONCE.

Luckily I haven't had any major issue, but one role that player support should fill is giving support for issues big and small, even things that are only misunderstandings and need to be cleared up and clarified.

Never being able to reach an actual support agent makes the player feel isolated when they have an issue. I don't care if removing the player support bot means longer wait times, that would be better than having to go back and forth with an unintuitive bot that gets us nowhere.

Split up support tickets by asking if the player needs an urgent response or if they're fine to wait so things like lost accounts and purchasing issues get priority, and general queries still get answered. Not being able to answer general queries is pretty frustrating.

TL;DR: The addi...

The addition of the sparky bot made player support unbearable, primarily since there is no player support.

That's good feedback. Sorry that we can't do more for you. We're trying to do as much as we can, but a certain level of "automation" is a necessity to keep the player support operation sustainable.

What we can do is try to improve the information that Sparky has to give.

Just wanted to confirm that this is indeed an issue only affecting certain Australian internet service providers.

It's unfortunately out of our hands, and similar to what u/AHerbKA said, it is the same issue that Germany had with an ISP a while back.
Sorry that you're experiencing these issues!

You guys need to have a long hard look at your player support. Sorry, but it's been f**king atrocious for quite some time now. It's frustrating for us, and embarrassing for you guys. I get that whoever runs this account may not be directly related with in game support, but something needs to happen. It used to be very good, but it's honestly turned to shit.

I'm responsible for CR player support at the high level. I'm interested in any concrete feedback you might have.

What's the main cause of frustration? What was good before and isn't good anymore?

no plans at the moment but i do love that you can do that with brawl stars.

hey, yeh this is very weird and definitely not ok to be advertising that stuff in-game.
unfortunately these things are very hard to trace/prove as they most likely occur outside of the game, but if you DM me their player tag we can take a look at the chat history to see if we can find anything there. thanks
