    Casual Community Poll 3/30 - 4/1: Potential Nerfs in Season 10

    Voting for Cards in Contention for a Nerf in Season 10

    Hello Clash Royale Fans! For this post I am willing to try out the new poll format that has recently been integrated into New Reddit. Because there is just a week before the balance announcement and Seth has stated that there are 3 potential candidates for a nerf in SC's latest AMA, I believe this is the ideal time to use this format. The intention of this post is to gather the community's perspective on 3 top-tier cards that define the meta in a certain fashion, and what the optimal course of action would be if one of the three theoretically gets nerfed.

    -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    The Candidates

    Note: All the stats used are from Royale API within the past 7 days.

    Magic Archer

    GCs CCs Top 1000 Ladder (All) All Battles
    Usage % 23% 22% 14% 10% 14%
    Win % 51% 52% 51% 49% 51%

    Considered by many to be the most likely candidate, the Magic Archer has been making huge strides in the meta ever since his buff back in August 2019. This optimized his interactions against a bevy of swarm units it otherwise struggled against in comparison to other ranged splashers (It could kill Spear Goblins, Princess, Dart Goblin, Rascals with one less arrow). However, what really makes him a top-tier card is that he can double as a win-condition alongside being a fantastic long-ranged cleaner on defense!

    Though the piercing mechanic is his defining trait, its considered by many that his ability to quickly chip down crown towers is what pushes him over the edge. Not only does he fulfill a pivotal role in Royal Hog and Bridge Spam decks, but also established quite a niche in Miner-WB, Hog Rider, Elixir Golem, and even in some Giant decks! It is without a doubt that Magic Archer is one of the defining forces in the meta, and his versatility on offense and defense is certainly something to always account for.

    Seth has recently inquired the community why Magic Archer is OP beyond the numbers, since his stats are very comparable to similar support units.

    ​

    Mini Pekka

    GCs CCs Top 1000 Ladder (All) All Battles
    Usage % 27% 23% 24% 22% 22%
    Win % 53% 53% 50% 50% 51%

    This pancake-dweller has went a long way to what he has become in the current meta. Formerly overshadowed by the plethora of other minitanks, notably Lumberjack, it is without a doubt that players have witnessed the underlying potential Mini Pekka has had over the past few years. However, with that being said, Mini Pekka is a notch above every other minitank that fulfills a similar role.

    Not only is he remarkable tank killer courtesy of his high DPS, but his not-so-slow 0.6sec first attack makes him a very well-rounded ground unit. He is a reliable blanket check against the majority of the ground-based meta while being a formidable counterpush unit due to his fast movement speed. His plethora of fantastic traits have made him a compelling pick in a variety of decks, ranging from Golem beatdown to Hog Cycle to even Lava Hound decks! It's clear that Mini Pekka has finally sliced his sword into the meta, and he's certainly not a warrior to mess around with.

    Bomb Tower

    GCs CCs Top 1000 Ladder (All) All Battles
    Usage % 17% 12% 12% 6% 6%
    Win % 54% 55% 50% 50% 53%

    Formerly an obsolete card that was disregarded since beta, Bomb Tower finally made its breakthrough back in October 2019 as one of the very few top-tier counters to the omnipresent Elixir Golem. However, to everyone's surprise, it persisted to thrive after the EG-centric meta. Its AOE damage and great bulk makes it quite a well-rounded ground defense. However, its death bomb is what sets it apart from the other structures, enabling it to significantly chip larger pushes and air units given the opportunity.

    Though Bomb Tower has had quite an unfortunate history preceding its leap into the meta, it has been the undisputed building of choice for several months. As a result it has made other buildings suffer the same agony it has experienced for almost 4 years! Goblin Cage, Tombstone, Furnace, and even Inferno Tower have all completely fell out of the meta as a result of Bomb Tower. Perhaps a nerf can boost these 4 buildings back to viability?

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Discussion Questions:

    • What is your nerf of choice?
      • What is the reasoning behind your vote?
        • What implications has your choice caused that makes it deserving of a nerf?
        • How would the meta benefit if your card of choice gets nerfed?
        • Why is it problematic in comparison to the other choices?
      • How would you nerf this card?
        • Why is your nerf the optimal course of action to reign it in to a balanced state?

    ​

    • What choice do you think should NOT be nerfed?
      • What positive contributions does the card make that allows it to dodge the "nerf hammer"?
      • Is there enough counterplay in the meta to keep it in check for the forseeable future?
        • Elaborate!
      • How would the meta impede if your card of choice gets a nerfed?

    NOTE: Exemplary comments that best demonstrate the nature of this post WILL be awarded, so it is advised you put thought into your comment if you plan on doing so!

    This game has fallen back into a rock, paper, scissors meta

    Ladder has become a little extra frustrating to play just due to the matchups. Every game it seems like I win with no problem or just absolutely obliterated. Is anyone else noticing this too?
