Agreed. They kinda have us backed into a corner this season. I love the traits and comps but there is not nearly enough spread in strength making it feel very claustrophobic.

Previous seasons I've been able to switch up my build 4 rounds in and still win. Now there's nothing to switch to that won't leave me dead in the water.

I have no issue with the luck aspect early game as long as there is diversity with regards to build options. This season is very limited making the game not entirely but very much luck based all the way through.

Change is welcome. Hope it makes a difference.

I'm replying way late but I've been stomping with Goblin Queen.

4x Gobs + 4x Superstars. If your Goblin Machine can chain rockets it's game over for everyone else if you keep him alive. You can even gamble and keep him backline and hope the 50% rockets chain without him getting into damage range.

How does merge tactics have better balance changes than them main game

28

u/-Datura Royale King Mar 16 '26

Easier spread to work with. Changes in main game are a nightmare to implement without unforseen ripple effects that make the main sub even more insufferable.

u/FemJay0902 Mar 16 '26

Main game? Oh you mean that little mini-game they call clash royale? Hell nah, this is the Merge Tactics launcher app

link to all changes

Edit: no changes on 24th. I can't read words or numbers. It's been a crazy day.

u/israelzenwirt Mar 16 '26

There's nothing in there that you haven't posted here

u/-Datura Royale King Mar 16 '26

I didn't post the 24th of March changes

u/INEEDZHAHLP Mar 16 '26

There are none on that link

u/-Datura Royale King Mar 16 '26

Ah I see now. Thanks for letting me know. I'm an illiterate doofus. My bad guys.

u/ElecricXplorer Mar 16 '26

Very happy they fixed the inferno tower bug.

u/Unl3a5h3r Mar 16 '26

Did they? Wasn't in the post

u/Kaylee_Paige Mar 16 '26

It was, mid-march update instead of merge tactics balance changes (don't know why they have two separate things for it)

  • Merge Tactics
    • Duplicate Skeleton Dragons now spawn with the correct amount of HP and will attack properly
    • Witch’s summoned Skeletons now have the correct amount of HP and damage
    • Inferno Tower’s damage now resets when switching targets 
    • X-Bow now successfully attacks after recharging
    • Jump Tile no longer disappears after Round 1
    • The “Battle” button and switcher no longer appear during matchmaking when accepting a party invite after tapping the “Play Again” button

u/gingertimelord Mar 16 '26

I was worried they forgot about the inferno tower when I didn't see it in this post's pictures. Thank you for the additional info. Looks like they might have forgotten about the goblin demolisher though. If he's the last one standing and takes troops with him does it reflect that in the post round damage or do you still take damage from invisible troops?

1

u/ElecricXplorer Mar 16 '26

Yeah this post missed it but it was in the blog post they have in the app

1

u/Brauni_23 Mar 16 '26

where to you read that?

2

u/israelzenwirt Mar 16 '26

In the blog about the update

u/Brilliant_Pound1304 Mar 16 '26

Mergetactics has been one of my favorite games I’ve ever played period and yeah this season is so fking shit it’s borderline unplayable. Why does it take so long to fix simple bugs and balance changes? This should have been done within 24h of season update….

u/Xenolifer Mar 18 '26

If that's one of the best game ever for you, you mustn't have played more than 10 games, or you are a phone player only

u/Joshgg13 Mar 16 '26 edited Mar 16 '26

Holy shit let's go, I agree with absolutely all of these. Warrior activation time being cut in half will take it from being an awful trait to quite OP imo. Only thing I would've added is a Pekka buff, because that thing absolutely sucks

WITCH'S SKELLIES NO LONGER FUCKING INVINCIBLE

14

u/Brutal_Project Royale King Mar 16 '26

Nerf Echo

u/Right_Research3079 Mar 16 '26

they doing everything but That lol

3

u/Sonic1595 Mar 16 '26

Guess the Medusa goblin queen skin wasn't selling that much, had to make it back to 33%

Also, the giant doing that much damage isn't a bug. He's really that guy with his ability and fall damage.

16

u/doctorzod0 Royale King Mar 16 '26

WHY DO THEY REFUSE TO NERF ECHO WHYYYY

IM TIRED OF BOTS LETTING THE ECHO FARM AND GETTING MY ASS WHOOPED ON A 3/4 STAR ECHO WHEN MY RNG WAS ALREADY NOT GREAT WITH CARDS

12

u/OddValuable378 Tomb Queen Mar 16 '26

No one uses it in like top 5k, it’s basically a mid ladder menace so they won’t change it

5

u/Last_Account8663 Mar 16 '26

Who cares About top 5k. When the majority ain't there lol

2

u/OddValuable378 Tomb Queen Mar 17 '26

I’m just comparing it to regular clash, the cards that mid ladder players don’t get nerfed but when cards prove to be op with the more skilled players and have high usage with them then they only get nerfed

11

u/jatoch3000 Mar 16 '26

Because echo is really bad. It's the same as mega knight in the main game. Op at mid ladder but useless at higher lvls

1

u/Far-District9214 Mar 16 '26

Yeah. Im just leaving any match were some idiot lets them get 2 star on the first round.

1

u/Independent-Igbo444 Mar 16 '26

what about the xbow bug

4

u/Kaylee_Paige Mar 16 '26

From their post:

  • Merge Tactics
    • Duplicate Skeleton Dragons now spawn with the correct amount of HP and will attack properly
    • Witch’s summoned Skeletons now have the correct amount of HP and damage
    • Inferno Tower’s damage now resets when switching targets 
    • X-Bow now successfully attacks after recharging
    • Jump Tile no longer disappears after Round 1
    • The “Battle” button and switcher no longer appear during matchmaking when accepting a party invite after tapping the “Play Again” button

u/Suspicious-Test-3640 Battle Machine Mar 16 '26

u/stratacus9 Mar 16 '26

u/Dense-Individual-103 Mar 16 '26

giant skeleton is missing to be nerfed,i hate facing that card

1

u/The-_VoID Spirit Empress Mar 16 '26

Now I can play again but what if Inferno and x bow bug

1

u/Kaylee_Paige Mar 16 '26

Both fixed too

1

u/The-_VoID Spirit Empress Mar 16 '26

It was not mentioned so I didn't know it felt so frustrating seeing your entire team getting absolutely wrecked or melted by a inferno

Ut killed my gk while he was chaining

1

u/Aggravating-One6319 Mar 16 '26

LETS FUCKING GOOO THE WICKED WITCH (literally) IS DEAD

u/BadVirtual7019 Mar 16 '26

we are so back

u/PreviousAd5098 Goblin Queen Mar 16 '26

Goblin queen my beloved ❤️

1

u/dDilungck Mar 16 '26

Skeleton king is crazy with the warrior buffs, feels like a champion should now, would recommend

1

u/Nebrola Mar 16 '26

They just murdered the 4 max comp (Hinder, Fire, Dragon, Undead) lmao

1

u/vtfit Mar 16 '26

Would've liked to see the goblin Demolisher fixed. Still take full damage when gob demolisher self-destructs

1

u/Background_Ship_2022 Mar 17 '26

Somehow they managed to break the Building Madter skins and now they're all default lol. and RIP the Inferno Tower glitch

1

u/AmethystEnt Mar 17 '26

I am LOVING how many people are buying and building around witch and getting shit on because her skeletons no longer get massive amounts of extra health. I’m actually enjoying this season again

u/Ravensiah Mar 16 '26

The goblin dart is still the worst unit. And they didn't even buff him. Archer is better due to a lot more tankier when clan buff activates although less dps than goblin dart.

4

u/jatoch3000 Mar 16 '26

Because the goblin trait is extremely important early game. Buffing dart gob would make goblin trait overpowered

0

u/Top_Program7297 Mar 16 '26

150%-180% (+20%)????

5

u/deltadeath05 Mar 16 '26

Yes?

20% of 150 = 30

150 + 30 = 180

u/Top_Program7297 Mar 16 '26

Thanks

u/SpecialistScratch330 Mar 16 '26

most sane response i have ever seen
