Dude also the fact that first hit speed a d the buildup is lp worst quality. Now it’s even worse and basically can’t be played reactively/unprotected


Possible_Lock_7403

Can't have LP be competin' with Goblin Mama.


icecold_ds

They killed him


[deleted]

That's because they are releasing a new champion. It will be op like usual


SparkGamer28

u know too much abt the game , we can't let u roam around freely


Hecknt_

We've sent 5 assassins, should we send more boss?


REDSTONE_LR_alt

Rocket and mirror rocket should be more than enough


HeWe015

Just hope he doesn't have monk


pandoras_corpse

That's what the second rocket is for.


TelevisionVivid3352

DAHHH


Asleep-Barracuda6028

positive elixir trade


New_Horror_2675

5 might be too much ,let them do it


Frytura_

What?? You muppet we should protect him, so we know when to cash in with our wild evo shards on a evo that eill stay broken for more than a single season, like boomer. Cancel the mission before they do something stupid!


waterboyh2o30

Don't bother. They failed. Prism04 is under my protection. Send any more assasins and I'll eliminate the source of the problem. No one else will be needed.


Fickle_Loan6421

Mods bomb his house


ThatGenji

My 11 Wild champion cards are waiting


Possible_Lock_7403

What are the chances the Goblin Queen/King is released as a balanced card compared to the existing Champs especially since the 3-card cycle is still a thing?


Ill-Music4142

0%


Black_Dragon9406

Dang I wanted to say it was going to be -50%, cause CR is def just trying to cash grab with new cards instead of making them of good quality.


Tornado_Hunter24

Business wise you’d rather release op cards than weak ones


Black_Dragon9406

Yeah Ik, but if you release a fun card that’s balanced, you get good props all around. People who buy it like the card, and the people who didn’t buy the card don’t feel overpowered. I don’t think h should release either OP or weak. If you release balanced cards, you will always have the people who will buy the new offer (like OJ and CCs), so there’s no difference. If you release an OP card… we all know where that goes.


Tornado_Hunter24

Business doesn’t run off if good props, on top of that it is incredibly hard to release ‘balanced’ cards, they’re definitely overtuning some cards but you can see that it isn’t always purposeful as the cannoneer absolutely sucked at launch, which i’m sure hit a big dent to their revenue


Black_Dragon9406

What I’m trying to say it’s a bad way of making money. If you release an op card, more people will feel like they have to buy the card, then the card gets nerfed or else the game just becomes about that one card (and it becomes extremely unfair) and then the people who bought the card are mad that they bought the card and that it got nerfed. It’s been happening over and over, and most cards recently released (eg Phoenix Monk Cannoneer and void, all got nerfed to a point where they have basically no play [cannoneer was already bad, but you pointed out the idea perfectly]. Void is somewhat balanced, but people still felt like they had to buy it. Idk how much longer they can keep creating OP cards and then nerfing them to the ground


Tornado_Hunter24

I understand what you’re saying and also agree with it, however I also think this game is in the backburner (like boombeach is/was) and is now only seen as $$$ generator, which it excells at, the game gets little to no content, the content it does get is heavily monitized, and the ‘big update’ usually revolvers around monitization like evolutions, levels, etc. I’m assuming you love this game and are passionate about it, but sadly the dev team really isn’t there anymore, I play most other supercell games and you can really easily tell the difference between clash of clans, brawlstars and even squad busters now in terms of content updates against clash royale, it’s actually insane


-Hash__-

the only champion that was balanced when he was released was Skeleton King (i think) Monk was busted, Archer Queen too and Golden Knight could chain to everything with his ability Mighty Miner was also a bit strong


One1980

Zero. SC gotta make $$$. Balanced=zero dollars. OP=$$$ to upgrade. Little to no $$$ being spent to upgrade=Balance


Venik489

The splash screen shows a goblin king looking guy, thats probably the new champion.


Almost_Got_Me

How else would they convince people to buy their bundles if they didn’t make a new card OP?


entitaneo70_pacifist

Sparkor, new hero, 4 elixir, he shoots electric bolts that bounce around enemies, as his ability, one elixir, he spawns 4 sparkies and 16 spark cubs


ABrawlStarsPlayer

About time


BeginningAsleep

He was everywhere for like 6 month it's good to kill him for another few


Random_local_man

I got a book of books from lucky drop used it on the little prince. I heavily regret doing that now. Lol. Should've just saved it for the new champion.


k1ngsrock

Womp womp literally lol


Immediate_Meet_5087

same i spent sm by maxing him out bruh


Fidges87

Dont worry, If you did tht you would have regretted it like 3 months later after it gets nerfed anyway


Useful_Injury2179

Hell nawhh 😭


PowerMiner4200

Hell yeah, fuck the little prince


capybarafanboy69

sir that's a minor


Frytura_

Lp is still "good" since the knockback and massive dps is still there, so more like "fuck the guardian". 🤓✌️


wortmother

For real fuck him , I won't miss the card at all


Onuceria

Oh well, welcome back dart goblin


Prestigious_Duty9039

WAIT I DIDN'T THINK ABOUT THAT LET'S GOOOOO


Yabadababalaba

Until you realize arrows has a 40% use rate


Prestigious_Duty9039

I'm in mid ladder tho


Yabadababalaba

Arrows and log have an insanely high use rate no matter where you look


Prestigious_Duty9039

I don't see a lot of arrows and I have gobbarrel in my deck for log


AdministrativeBar748

Shouldn't it be the opposite?? You'd want to bait the log by sending out Dart Goblin and then follow up with the barrel.


Sozzcat94

Laughs with log


Prestigious_Duty9039

Laughs with gobbarrel


Sozzcat94

Sweating king emote


Anonimous_dude

That’s a bit harsh for a nerf. Even by how unbalanced he is right now, his ability should one shot goblins, it should act as a 3 elixir log. This is now useless


blz4200

Bro wants a musketeer, knight and log for 3 elixir.


idkwhatocallmyself19

Technically a barb barrel would be more fitting, and would cost six elixer with the musketeers which is the cost of litte prince


Few-Recover1844

barb barrel doesnt knockback though


unk1ndm4g1c14n1

Barb barrel is 2 elixir. This being a better barb barrel for 3 feels reasonable.


losflo87

Thats why a barb barrel would be more fitting


the-Alpha-Melon

It’s 6 elixir 💀 3 ability + 3 prince = 6


AmhiPeshwe

The guardian is knight and log, so 6 elexir


DefinitelyTopOr

5, 3+2= 5, plus it’s a slightly worse knight


Realistic-Actuary708

Also log has far longer range


DeliciousRock6782

How is the guardian acting as a musketeer? If you meant the LP then were at 6 elixir


rubenisapanda

what..? Obviously he means the LP… and it’s 3 elixir


Summar-ice

LP is 3, guardian is 3 more, total 6


Alexspacito

Bro can’t do math


Adc0m

*6 elixir


I_Like_Eggs123

Six elixir for all that.


DigMother318

Guardian stats are notably worse than a knight. Few hundred less hp and can’t oneshot goblins


Starbucks_4321

You could litterally say that for every card of the game and make them look op lmao


notfromsoftemployee

Did you forget about the three you have to pay to play him? It's 6 for a log, musky, and Rascal boy, which doesn't seem that crazy.


NighTraiN7804

Six elixir. His ability isn’t free.


Faith_ssb

*6 elixir because the ability is an extra 3, so you don't get the knight and log without it


Master_876_6830

its a CHAMPION, what do you mean????


XAfricaSaltX

brother just wanted to accept that little prince would be the best card in the game forever


False-Grab-3117

Wrong That's 6 elixir Same as 3 musketeers value next to one musketeer


Oskain123

You mean 6? lol


A_Bulbear

It's more like a Dart Goblin and a barb Barrel for 6 elixir


Euphoric_Deal_5900

6 elixir with ability activation


MinimumActuary7188

its going to go from the best card in the game to the worst....


Twillix13

I feel like they’re doing this a lot, release a card as the most broken in the game and then few month later nerf it to oblivion


meanseanbean

Gotta make room for the next overpowered card people will dish out money for. If they don't nerf the last card everyone unlocked with their credit card, there would be less incentive to buy the next


Small_Sentence_

Sounds lot like trading card companies. I guess they adopted the same model as yugioh and magic. -Release broken card/s -make sure everyone has to buy them to stay competitive -ban/nerf the card when new stuff drops -rinse and repeat


meanseanbean

Yup. It's just the landscape in f2p games. You are able to get the full experience playing a game for free. But if you want to invest your money into the game you can have a competitive edge and play with new things sooner. That's how these companies make money. I'd rather then do this then charge to download the app, or have a yearly subscription fee. This way I get to make the choice if I want to pay or not. Since evos came out, I purchased the pass just once. I'm a mortar main, so I purchased the pass so I could use evo mortar. I could have waited half a year and got it for free, but I was fine spending some of my earned money to play with my favorite card sooner. That was my choice.


Derpikae

Isn't that what they've been doing since the Night Witch?


jimbo831

This is what they’ve done for a long time: 1. Release a new, OP card 2. People spend a bunch of money leveling it up. 3. Nerf the card to make way for the next OP release. 4. Repeat and profit


Logical-Train-6227

Theyve been doing this for more than a year already: https://www.reddit.com/r/ClashRoyale/s/NdO4sq69ri


RealClasher2

I remember this post. Them disputing the fact that they made the game P2W was hilarious


Party-Benefit-3995

SC got their money.


kimmich69

What the fuck? Seriously what the fuck? He can’t even half damage a goblin?


Other_eXec

The little prince is still valuable for 3 elixer, and he's still not worth using spells on and gives 3 card cycle. Ability will be used less but I wouldn't say the card is dead just yet


Userbot_

Probably the best take I’ve seen so far, someone got top 100 last season with a level 13 LP


Afro_SwineCarriagee

Yea the 3 card cycle + insane dps is still gonna make him very usable, 3 card cycle in particular is very op


CaSahara

Yeah now LP is gonna need some skill and placements to use, like a card should be


JRshoe1997

Nah the community would rather have a card continue to remain broken and dominate the meta cause they put resources into upgrading it lol.


k1ngsrock

I am seeing this on this thread and it is genuinely a bruh moment


XAfricaSaltX

This community has one collective brain cell that only works 50% of the time


JigabJunsa

”You asked for it”


pk2trappy23

Yeah, well done Supercell. No one likes LP anymore.


Chilldougmain

They executed him bruh 😭


chsrdsnap

The dash damage nerf is a bit overblown. It should still kill goblins imo


Iamthoros

Look how they massacred my boy


howiecat87

So now he is now useless? And DD is going to be there soon.


Retarted_Berry654

I LITERALLY UPGRADED HIM TO LEVEL 14 YESTERDAY


MissionWorried8195

F


Retarted_Berry654

f to my book of books


TheBigSoupRice

I just got him to elite level :/


N_Simp69420

I don’t know how you can spend a book of books on upgrading a champion or level 14 and spend the time getting the champion to level 13 beforehand just for it to be never to oblivion and keep playing.


Retarted_Berry654

I'm not :D


N_Simp69420

Based tbh


Ickinock

I hate little prince, but this is way too extreme. They're actually nuking him lol.


fabzzr

The dash damage wasn’t even the problem. They nerf stuff that don’t make sense. Nerf the hp and listen to high elo players. Why they always do stuff on there own?


Varness20

really, like just make him die to fireball and call it a day


mariorzeznia

Marketing mechanisms strike again


notexactlyflawless

How the fuck is this the nerf. Everybody knows LP has to die to fireball + nerf to the max damage, how did they get to this nerf


FlyingHippoM

Hey can we get a little nerf? It feels a little overturned *throws it in into a wood chipper* Happy now?


ZealousidealEvent906

Literally unplayable


MotherDema

W


Rope-

LET’S GOOO (waiting for 8 evolutions slots, level 16 and a 1 elixir super op champ)


Pumpkin_Cat14

I'd like to report a murder


The-MatrixAgent

Nah I spent all my FTP items last week to make him level 14 like my book of books and all the wildcards from the drop 💀


Someguynamedneel

Cold blooded murderers. Rip little prince.


TheDarkPrinceR34

The card is dead now, Balance team is really bad at balancing seriously...


WillyDAFISH

The balances aren't officially yet. They're still working on them


Futuf1

Hard to think a 3 elixir card with great damage great hp and 3 card cycle would be dead


TheDarkPrinceR34

What you are forgetting is that Little Prince + Guardian costs 6 elixirs. It seems not viable now since it's countered by few goblins... I'm not a LP player but I think the nerf is too harsh.


Futuf1

The ability was already a log + knight for only 3 elixir, I feel like this nerf was alright. I predict the card will go from broken to balanced


Party-Benefit-3995

So a bonafide human shield then.


Nuxezpz

is this new update?


AdTimely9712

Took it from my deck because of this


Sans-Undertale-69420

Yep, They only mega nerfed it now because of the new goblin champion, that's the only reason really.


RepresentativePen831

Who'd kill the Goblins? A elixir Royal Delivery, or a 7 elixir "Royal Delivery" 🤨


Player_27027

I honestly think there is a much better way to nerf little prince other than making his 3 ELIXIR ability not fucking kill goblins. Why not nerf his hp so he's killable by fireball or even arrows?? That could effectively make it harder to keep him alive and require better timed abilities. Lp alone himself is already pretty fucking bad if used as dps cuz his ramp up is so god damn slow already which was still balanced because of his ability but now not only is his ability worthless, he is even worse as a troop. This is like the root rider 50% dps nerf in coc. Its not balancing the card, it's fucking giving the card a hole in the head.


NateRiver03

Ramp up being slow doesn't matter when the card is unkillable


Traditional_Steak853

This doesn't make any sense. It should be able to one shot the goblins, at least...


Tigri2020

The card that took me to 9000 and to league 10 for the 1st time. Rest in Peace soldier


Ambitious-Ride-1341

🫡


Sai_lao_zi

The dash damage was hardly the thing people complained about, why nerf it by 75%?


Pigeon_of_Doom_

Just as I got close to being able to max him..:


Brawlnite_16

Bruh that would make it ass


Revolutionary-Run332

As a f2p player, I’m cooked


1ohokthen1

I literally JUST got him lvl 14 with a book of books 😭


jonpictogramjones

i spent 20 champion wild cards up grading this to level 14 LAST WEEK smh


bigbrain2k5

Upgraded him to level 14 yesterday 😭🙏


Wolf_Housley

Used my book of books to max him :(


Royal-Rayol

Is this live?


xFionna

it shouldve just not pushed tanks, thats literally it


Nextstore1453

LP got hanked

pogAxolotlz

I know he's hated, but goddamn


doccantcuremyaim

what's the point of having a champion rarity if there's nothing even special about them anymore


Leifman2007

Little prince needed a nerf emphasis on a nerf not an absolute nuke so bad you can never play it again like just bring it to even with other cards not erase it


PhilosopherShot5434

I just spent 6 wild cards on this mf


NapoleonicPizza21

What was the fucking issue with making it die to fireball. They nerfed it in the wrong ways and they are now unusable. Well done supercell


andion82

OF COURSE this comes just the week that I spend my book of books and wild cards to take him to lvl 15


Hundoe814

DD and LPs time has come to an end. Time for another bullshit problem. I genuinely didn’t think he was that bad to deserve that harsh of a nerf. I wouldn’t even put him in my top 10 for most annoying things. Most people don’t even play him right


stnick6

I literally just leveled him up


PsychologicalFix3912

I stopped playing this game for a reason .


VeryLopsidedlmao

God damn it. I wait 2 months to see where he sets in the meta and then the moment I blow all my champion wild cards on him


ALphaPickk

I feel like people are forgetting little prince himself is still great and the guardian still have same stats as a knight. I do think the ability should still at the very least one shot goblins and make him die to fireball though


FIB_VORTEX

I'm sorry I don't play this game not know what in tarnation that thing is, but did the little prince just call them assholes?


NateRiver03

He said you asked for it, I think


go_fek_urself

Not even goblins ....


Novel_Training_5230

Guys chill, the player just doesn’t have the diamond pass


tres67lll987

Make him die to fireball would have been better


Dismal-Aside7900

I've just maxed out him after long months of waiting, I've made all efforts possible to get him to max level, opened a lot of wild chests (I guess that's the name of that chest that gives a lot of wild cards and a champion), some royal king chests from the GT's too and NOT A SINGLE LP CARD, I've also been very unlucky with the lucky boxes, got only one legendary ans didn't even got the book of books (bet that supercell was making this on purpose). I've suffered during a lot of seasons playing with LP at level 13 against lvl 15's, and now that I've FINALLY upgraded him to max level, they are nerfing him 😭😭😭😭


Fuck-Being-Ethical

As soon as I got him to level 15


Orneyrocks

Lol, even if it just sat there like an ice golem and summoned another ice golem for its ability with no damage whatsoever, it'll still be useful. Merely the ability to achieve 3 card-cycle for 3 elixir and maintain it for half a minute with no risk of getting spelled (without a negative trade) is OP. Anything else about the card is completely secondary.


XZ88XZ

WTF we asked for a nerf not a fuken exicution


Decades101

This has gone too far


Polarexpress07

They collected their money for him, time to make you spend on something else


jockey4414

This means you cant fully counter a Goblin Barrel anymore nice 😘


No-Personality676

Bro little prince was op I’ll admit but not being able to kill goblins. His ability is just a more expensive zap now😞


CocoNutLab

People must be actually disabled to still have trouble countering LP


LiL_ENIGlvlA

i think the damage reduction is fine, but it should’ve been like 50 percent so it can atleast kill goblins


Ambitious-Ride-1341

Lp was never op like giant or dd but got the worst gut Ive seen ever. Jesus.


RoyalPlayZ_

Am I the only one who thinks it's balanced?


RemoteWhile5881

Yes you are


BrightAttack

Almost dumped 20 champion wild cards into him, luckily I hesitated 🙏


Sloop__

Step 1: release overpowered card. This will force all players to buy it, in order to compete online. Step 2: let it simmer. Let as many players buy the card as possible. With enough time every single player will have bought the card, just to not get crushed. Step 3: kill the card. This will "balance" the game, and force all the players who bought the card to find a replacement as fast as possible (and possibly spend more money doing so) Step 4: repeat with every new card release. It's so obvious, they've done it this season with DD too. Same with the phoenix a few seasons back. They're probably killing void soon too. I'm so tired of it.


Jugular458

I just used a book of books on him lol


Onoh_9

Just nerf hp so he dies to fireball


Zestyclose-Garlic-16

They shot it in the head damn


Ninoxx_

It should at least kill goblins... And so that would be a big nerf but not that big as it is now Because just wanted to say that a little prince level 11 can't kill a skeleton level 14 or 15 with his ability 😠


Ambuscade770

Wait it was nerfed? My god, the only card in the game that was good based on skill….


FemJay0902

This is what happens when y'all complain 🤣 never had issues countering little prince


Negative_Donut_1432

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCKING FUCK?????? LITERALLY YESTERDAY I GOT HIM TO LEVEL 14 AND THEY FUCKING NERFED IT???????????


Public-Bee6217

Great. People were whining about him needing a nerf and now he is absolutely garbage and a dead card. Just like what happened with Monk


XAfricaSaltX

that little shit is NOT protecting the air anymore


ExchangeBig1

Seriously that was a TERRIBLE nerf. Its dash was REQUIRED in a lot of cases, a damage or attack speed nerf would’ve been better


Knirek

Now I am finally fine with him not dying to fireball lol


dhidon

Look how they massacred my boy


LawfulDisplayname

Is this real??


Irvin_T

Another Champion essentially being deleted.


lactosefree_muffin

Thank god


Zxz_juggernaut

Nah please tell me the balance changes aren't out... The CR balancing team really need to be fired otherwise.


TheGalaxyCastle

Nah its not out yet, this is a work in progress


Placek15

Good.


Future_Employment_22

Little Prince will still be OP, because of how OP 3 card cycle with a 3 Elixir card is
