Clash Royale’s Balance Changes for February 2025

In my gaming world, I’ve noticed that the latest list of adjustments comes packed with a blend of boosts, or as they call it, buffs, and cuts, or nerfs. Following the pattern we’ve seen in numerous monthly balance changes before, there are way more cuts than boosts in this update. And guess what? Even Card Evolutions aren’t spared!
