Clash Royale Dev Tracker

that’s always a hard one - we’ve thrown around a few ideas and one that seemed interesting was slightly reversed hearthstone opening of giving an extra elixir to the person who makes the first move.

but as we aren’t a turn based game it’s hard to get a ‘fair’ answer to incentivize going first. queue spamming a card as soon as the game starts etc.

we don’t have any plans to change this at the moment. maybe we could do a trial in CRL or tournaments where it seems to be a bit more prevalent but for now it’s not a massive priority!

thanks for the question

Hey Reddit,

I'm here with some info on what we’ve been working on and what you can expect in the coming month!

We have an update slated for the end of September, AND we are gearing up for a spooky Season 4, launching on October 7th.

---

Something we are introducing in the September update will be a tiebreaker.

Tiebreakers will be going into all game modes except 1v1 Ladder (Trophy Road) and will mean that draws will almost always no longer be possible.

If they perform as intended and we see positive results, we will also then extend tiebreakers to 1v1 Ladder in the future.

u/Supercell-Seth (our friendly neighborhood game designer) has shared his thoughts on the topic:

“We have been discussing draws in the team for a long time. It...

so we looked into this, and the bug part is when it is communicated that you get star points.

what happens is you are still given XP (so you aren't losing out) but not star points.

but the information given to the player is incorrect as it tells you you earn star points in this scenario (instead of the XP that you are earning)

as thrilling as this is to watch, it's something we are patching out in the next update. enjoy your relaxing common card animations while you still can!

hey, can you DM me some more info (like your ticket ID or your player tag/s) so i can take a peek? thanks.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to your nephew!

can you DM me their player tag?

i cant reveal much right now - but we'll be dropping an update before season 4 starts that will have a bunch of new stuff & QoL improvements

we will be fixing this issue in season 4 - more news to be announced this month. no need to stage a mutiny just yet!

this is such a great concept! i'd play the hell out of this irl

This is just a visual bug - the card info screen only displays both values if they are at least 1 tile different. The projectile still travels 4.5 tiles

This is tied to the range - if he has more time to start a swing, he's more likely to complete it. We decided to not increase the load time because we didn't want to overdo it and end up making him OP. Just fix the two most glaring problems - not killing fireball bait like Flying Machine, and making his minimum range not cartoonishly short.

The reason we decided to go with 4 is that his old minimum was 4.5 - we want our reworks to be different but still feel familiar to players. The much shorter minimum range felt wrong to many existing Executioner player, so this change should make him feel/player much like before his rework.
