#2 New Legendary Card - Fisherman

New legendary card - Fisherman

Another legendary card is now added. The legendary Fisherman comes with a hook with a couple of cool abilities. The description of this new card says,

Bringing a new grappling mechanic to Clash Royale, Fisherman pulls enemies towards him (damaging them in the process) and then slaps them with his trusted fish, causing melee damage and adding a slow effect. He can also pull himself to the nearest enemy building or Tower!

#4 Changes in Crown Chest

The previous system of the Crown Chest is now removed. It is swapped with the Pass royale free Crown Chests. However, the Crown Chest duration of 24 hours remained the same. The new system is based on the pass royale and the official statement says,

Crown Chests are now earned in the FREE tiers of Pass Royale. Each tier contains a Crown Chest. Every 24 hours, 1 tier will unlock. Except on weekends, when 2 tiers unlock every 24 hours! (1 tier = 1 Crown Chest)

#5 Melee Rulebook update

Since the release of the game, the developers have never clearly stated anything about the different range of the melee troops. Now, they divided the melee range into Long/Medium/Short (For reference, the tile in the arena is the unit of calculation). This will clear the confusion of which troop gets the advantage of hitting first in close combat.
