Following a much-controversial update in late March, Clash Royale published the final list of cards undergoing balance changes in April 2025.
Balance Changes
Balance changes are adjustments made to the statistics of cards to remove any unfair advantage due to overpowered or underpowered cards.
One particular card may face either of the following balance changes:
- Buff (Positive): In such changes, the overall changes to a card increase its viability.
- Rework (Neutral): In such changes, one aspect of the card receives nerf while another gets a buff, leading to a neutral change.
- Nerf (Negative): In such changes, the overall changes to a card decrease its viability.
