For me, a good nerf for the evo bomber would be making that each bomb hit, deals less damage. Ex: First hit deals the normal damage, the second hit deals 3/4, and the third bomb deals 1/2. Same for the second and third zap from the evo zap.

Win rates makes no sense. Even if a card is extremely broken and overused it will only have like 55% win rate because if one player wins the other has to lose. Some cards are trash like 3 musketeers but can have higher win rate because only very good players can use it.

After nearly 3 years of getting bullied by hog players i decided to play a hog deck myself from last month( it was pretty good i copied from sirtag) seems that now clash royale also bullied me by launching dd

Dagger Dutchess messed up the game so much that I went back to the original deck.

Yeah anyone who calls dd bad has no idea what they are talking about

2.6 hog glazers gonna be pissed AF

Dagger duchess counters my deck so fucking hard and I hate it because one card has ruined 3 years of learning my deck

Honestly I like that it manages to nerf cycle decks without directly nerfing the cards in the deck. I do think it needs a nerf but I like the idea

i love seeing more variety in the game evo firecrackers were going to make me quit this game

We gone full circle with the meta lmao **Full Cycle***

I’ve been playing 2.6 since 2017 and none of my other cards are very high level but I lose to dagger duchess like 80% of the time

Wait i thought that fast cycle decks are duchess' kryptonite Glad i was terribly mistaken lol, i getting my trusty old giant back

I hope they don't nerf her it nice to see the older decks being playable once again

Cycle decks are honestly just annoying to play against, don’t mind seeing fewer of them now

This is how it should be

Tower troops are healthy for the game, rather have more fun interesting matches than boring stagnant ones.

i love how the phoenix is slowly creeping its way back into the meta

Been running giant witch since 2017, never stopped. The toxic emotes i get after winning is hilarious

I hate how common Giant-Graveyard is becoming!!

the DD is burst DPS, once that burst is over (dagger meter) it becomes *really* vulnerable to whatever can tank the hits + any follow-up troop unless a proper defense, which shouldn't be trouble for higher arena players but still you see a lot of weird things even that far up

1 barbarian elixir cost 1

What was that arrows miss at the start 💀

It can easily be overwhelmed by draining the daggers with a tank. Even 2 elixer ice golem drains it.

The old pekka deck that I haven't changed in 5 years is finally paying off.

It makes a committed giant user happy to see giant beat down and giant control to be leading the meta. 😊

Being a cycle player it is very hard to keep the pressure on when her daggers are out

My deck hasn't changed for 4 months, it goes well against all three tower troops I use magic archer as my win condition so it doesn't even matter to me what the other guy has as a tower troop

Bring back the card ideas series

My main issue with it is.. why does it have more hp than a princess tower, when it's harder to chip its health down? Make it even with the princess.

I LOVE the fact I can finally counter Hog Rider decks. They're so annoying and have never fallen out of viability since release. Hopefully the dagger duchess only gets a small nerf, or no nerf at all

I’ve been running Evo Royal Recruit cycle 💀

Been using a goblin giant sparky deck with zappys, bommer, dart goblin, guards, log, and fireball. It’s worked out pretty well

What they need to do is rotate seasons or weeks where the towers are same as each other and not so you have to buy or upgrade

Finally a meta where hog AND log bait is bad :)))

Add one to three ravagers with different and have one-time rewards if you are killed by them, or some form of achievement of getting killed by a particular ravager

thank god good to see that hog isn't being used nearly as much

And after this the game is in the final stage of his life

Giant and bomber brings me back to arena 1 push back then

beginer decks eh? *WE GOIN BACK TO TRAINER OJ WITH THIS ONE*

Kinda funny how there’s almost zero scenarios in which the princess is as good or better than the dagger duchess (I have lvl 10 dd and lvl 11 princess and even I feel that the dd is like an objective upgrade)

Dagger duchess claps all my high level decks so I can’t really push this season 😭

i was wondering why it’s been quite challenging to climb ranked recently… i play splashyard and still think the dagger dutchess can be terrible at times when i play against it
