Bug fixes

This maintenance update also aims to fix various bugs and glitches in the game, which were the primary cause for disabling the classic and Welterweight 2v2 modes. Some of the main fixes are:

• Uncredited Lucky Drop Evolution Shards bug fix: Players faced a bug where Lucky Drop Evolution Shards were not being credited. This has been fixed.
• Classic 2v2 reactivation: Since the classic 2v2 mode was recently disabled, all the bugs in this game mode have been fixed, reintroducing this event permanently.
• Player profiles not loading: Players faced a bug where their profile screen wouldn’t load properly, which has now been fixed.
• Halved Legendary Evolution conversion: The Legendary Evolution shard conversion rate has been halved. Players will now get two cards or 3,000 Elite wild cards per shard if your Legendary Evolution card has already been upgraded to its maximum level.
• Removing lighting effects from arenas: Many Clash Royale arenas (like Electro Valley) have lighting effects that make them look more aesthetic. This update aims to remove them to make the UI and UX cleaner.
• Loading screen bug fix: A bug has been fixed that caused the loading screen to get stuck or appear twice before opening the game.
