WIP Balance Changes for January 2025 (Season 67)

I like most of the changes. I don’t think mighty miner needed a buff, especially since it was too strong previously when it charged up quicker. The AQ nerf is very good. I don’t know if recruits need a dps buff, but the charge nerf is good. I love the baby dragon buff.

Pekka rework is a step in the right direction, but I still think it will be very strong. I hope that it becomes easier now to counter it with swarms like what it supposed to be the weakness of the card. A healing mechanic is toxic to begin with and especially with the royal chef it becomes way too strong.

Royal chef needs a bigger nerf. Giving cards +1 destroys so many interactions, it’s very toxic. It’s like you’re playing trophy road with a new account, except that it is actually the end game. There should be a real penalty for having this mechanic to the point that it’s almost not worth it anymore, else this game will be very toxic for the coming seasons.

Finally the evo MK needs a nerf. It should not push back heavy units. The mighty miner which is supposed to counter MK is completely useless against it. Same goes for pekka, it’s much worse against an evo MK than a regular MK. The evo edrag also needs a nerf. There needs to be a limit on how much it can chain on troops.

Ghost low key needs a nerf as well. This card is used in so many decks, it’s very strong. It doesn’t need a big nerf, but maybe a small HP nerf.
