No, the range is correct he fires 7.5 tiles, same as princes tower the difference is that he has a new mechanic that isn't even mentioned but basically he also has a sight limit and he dosent have the full 360 view and there are blindspots where even when a troop is within his range he can't see it so he won't target it

You can also get over some of the weakness with swarms by taking tornado or fisherman for king activations. King tower is still half decent for helping on goblin barrel and gy. That might help.

Honestly if they just change it so it can target cards on the other side meleeing the king tower like the princess tower can, then I think it'd actually be a balanced alternative. It counters quite a few cards better than princess, and is weak against others. Theres different counterplay and ways to utilize both and I feel that's how it should be.

You can kinda do that on your own. What id like to see if some quick gameplay tips. Such as kiting, or defending things like hog or cycle decks vs tank decks

0:31 Oh, yeah totally. It 100% definitely has a 7.5 Attack range the same exact range as a Princess Tower and yet can care less about defending the king. This is why the King preferred his Daughter's for all those years they were actually loyal enough to defend their father.

12:37 Absolutely crazy interaction with Cannoneer

Evo skelly are gonna be so good against cannoneer. Ngl, I thjnk he needs some touch ups, but overall I think the tower has a lot of potential. Like my deck is good against swarm, but struggles a bit more with heavy troops. This could possibly synergize better with the deck I like. But still, I think it should maybe shoot a little faster, and/or have more health

We can’t say it needs huge buffs because it has many different interactions, so but it would be more balanced if they made his hit speed a little bit faster than witch spawning of skeletons and fix its range so the other Cannoneer Tower could attack if troops were nearby King’s Tower. 😅

Yea I agree it needs to not be so polarizing when it comes to the small troops like bats and skeletons it need to at least need to be able to take those out then I think it’s fine

The oval radius... The less health... And slow fire rate... The princess tower is supposed to be a clean up tower... Its its entire purpose... It is not a tank killer... Thats why the new tower troop needs a buff

If you use triple spell or something, maybe cannoneer is ok, but we’ll see. I think there will be a couple decks made with him next season that will have some success but he will overall not be used as much as the princess

Solid video thank you for the interactions

I think that a good way to buff this tower is to increase it range a little bit so it can hit units at the middle of the bridge. Noted that this can shut down alot of cards but it make sense you know. It suppose to weak to swarm. And you can't convince me that a high powered manhandled cannon share the same range as a princess weilding bow and arrows.

@gollymimus5261

Had this thought as well, especially since a Princess Tower usually helps the King Tower in most of the interactions after activation. It would make Cannoneers oval radius more apparent.

hey shane, how did u get the card sprites for tower princess and cannoneer, they aren't in the the clash royale wiki yet.

I really like the idea of this troop, the only thing i am concerned about is the levels. Since cards were actually added, that means i will need to level the tower up individually. So having a level 14 princess tower will make it hard to play with the cannoneer for a while depending on how tower cards are unlocked.

The only thing that makes it bad. Is the health. One attack from a Lumberjack for example has much more impact to a Cannoneer then a Princess Tower. Its a build around assist instead of a jack of all trades assist.

Thanks Shane for this video

Tbh, i like it. If anything, it could use a small hp increase or 0.1 hitspeed increase

7:23 you can't count it as time if the troop is not placed yet

All I hope is they remove the slight range limit to him so that you can kill units in the middle much quicker and help the king tower.

Finally a shane video!

its cool to see how supercell made cards that would have exactly enough hp to attack the princess like wallbreakers or skeleton barrel, now we can see how its really different

looking at the side by side, the cannoneer seemed pretty balanced, which is odd because all of the gameplay videos using it and using it in the current challenge makes it feel bad, but it might be because they are a lot of swarms currently in the meta? crazy how bad cannoneer is at dealing with skeletons

The lower tower HP and the attack speed being 3 times slower making it trash against swarms, weird radius, damage spillage ( it can 2 shot barbs but it’s 800/600 damage and it’s 4.8 seconds dor that), 400 less HP, it’s not worth the trade off, shane had a better idea that was tower talents (like equipment in CoC but for your tower, and all passive)

I have a question: how to play whip with spam pekki after this?

lil prince and evo archers have been reeeaaal quiet since this dropped☠️

the main issue i see is that it’s a forced duo. you can choose to have one on a certain side and another on the other. that would probably draw games out but i don’t know. seems smart to have that and be able to draw a tank to the cannon lane and draw a swarm to the princess.

Yea it definitely feels odd but it’s just a different play style. You sacrifice your tower’s capability to attack quickly but in turn you’re able to 1 shot a lot of things that you normally have to spend wasted elixir on defending and imo you have an easier time defending heavy oriented decks.

If he attacks the troops on the king tower also, he might be underrated. With 200 hp buff, this tower is actually better.

*Quisiera que le aumenten un poco el daño al cañonero para que al menos no queden tropas a un hilo de vida*

Wait the biggest change ever for defending ballons it prevent everything except one hit and you could just fully counter ballon with canoneer and oce spirit probably.

One thing though… the amount of damage dealt is not the best measurement… because the tower has less health, sometimes it is destroyed quicker. The remaining health is ultimately what matters because of when you are able to finish it with spell cycle. I understand that you are just demonstrating the interactions though. That lower health though is 💩 😅

In my opinion it needs a buff because cannoneer has a weird oval range not circular like princess so it’s needs its range to be the same as princess and it’s needs faster attack speed

For more accurate comparasion ,there should be HP equivalents calculated upon observing we can find that 6 HP(cannoneer) = 7HP(PTower) eg,, even if the princess tower takes 3010 damage and cannoneer takes 2580 damage it might seems that cannoneer wins but actually NO, it's should be a draw because 2580HP(c)=3010HP(p)

I honestly think this would be really good if nothing was changed except that it would do aoe instead of not because it looks like it did but maybe it was to op and they changed it I’m just not sure

Logbait player after cannoneer gets released😀

Heres to the ones that we gyatt

Why can't It be upgraded using Elite Wild Card?

You just put skeletons to tank for something and you got a 9 second window where your main damage dealing troup us unaffected by the canoneer

So... This is the first time we've seen pay to lose huh? The Cannoneer is situational at best. Supercell must really hate money. 😉

I think they are both good for different decks

What's the name of the music in 3:45 and 7:46

Hot take: cannoner needs = hp with princess tower and a small knockback on hit to emphytize with enemy spawner, spell cycle.

Cannoneer takes a lot of damage but one of his minus that he's attacking for example goblins where he lost more hp than tower princess who would kill goblin fast

I dont know but i like the princess tower because i played her the rest of my clash royale history up till to this day

If he gets a range buff, he will be balanced, no need of splash damage or attack Speed buffs (maybe a lil hp buff), tho i understand the hp nerf, long ranged troops like dart goblin, fire cracker and some others can't even attack once, so instead of a hp buff, maybe a projectle speed and range buff and that's it Edit: After watching the video, no, he only needs that 0.1 of range buff to target the troops when they're on the king tower and they're fine, when i'll level him up, i'll surely bring him in my deck, the hp difference is needed, basically an evo spirit can being your princess tower to the hps of a cannoner, so, i think it should stay like this

11:55 cannoneer helps king

rip tank meta 2023-2023. royal hogs finna go crazy and you gonna see swarms everywhere

En esas Torres baratas se le puede jugar con log bait si es lento

Cannoneer needs a little buff.

Hmm, sacrificing HP for the sake of damage, I don’t see the point in range If the player knows well how to default, then it’s best to take on HP Say that he protects the best video shown, I’ll say that you can place a unit so that 2 towers hit, but because of the range you won’t be able to do that with the new tower And what to do if the enemy sits on defense and with a heavy spell it’s much more important to take down the tower here

i think it would be more fair if u multiplied the damage canoneer recieves by 1.14x because it has less health

From the early gameplay videos he looked bad, but now I've changed my mind after seeing he does better at countering most cards in comparison to the princess
