SEPTEMBER UPDATE!

IT'S UPDATE TIME!

Find out everything that's new to Clash Royale - and why the 2v2 button has disappeared!


THE PARTY BUTTON

The 2v2 button is no more! All hail the Party button!

PARTY!

The 2v2 button has been replaced with the Party button. The function of the Party button is simple. You hit the Party button, and you can play a variety of game modes solo or with friends!

Alongside the regular 2v2 mode (2v2 IS NOT GOING ANYWHERE), there will be constantly rotating game modes in the Party button for you to play - they change every 48 hours - and you know what the best part is?

Any match played from the Party button can give:

  • Crowns

  • Victory Gold

  • Chests

All with no risk of losing Trophies! Nice.

MATCHMAKING CHANGES

2v2 matchmaking is CHANGING.

Any games played in the Party button will use new matchmaking, based on card levels & King levels.

The Party button just became a great place to try out new decks!


NEW GAME MODE: TRIPLE DRAFT

It's Draft - but you have more control over your deck building strategy! You get to choose all 8 of the cards that you use in the Battle. Choose from 3 cards, and also see what 3 cards your opponents choose from!

Triple Draft will be available in Friendly Battles.


FREE EMOTE WITH SUPERCELL ID!

Sign up to Supercell ID in Settings menu and get a free Emote!

If you’ve already signed up to Supercell ID, the Emote will be added to your collection when you play the updated version of the game for the first time.


TIEBREAKERS

Tiebreakers are being introduced to Clash Royale. This means that draws will no longer exist in all modes except 1v1 Ladder.

How do they work?

At the end of a game, the player with the lowest single Tower Hitpoints will lose.

TRANSPARENT COUNTDOWN TIMER!

Turns out the technology IS there. At the end of a match the countdown timer & text is now transparent.


CLAN LEADER ROTATION

Inactive Clan Leaders will now have their Leader role to the longest serving Co-leader.

This will happen after 35 days of inactivity (warning messages will be sent 14 days and 3 days before they are rotated).

If there is no Co-leader, the Leader role will be given to the longest serving Elder.

STAR LEVELS

Enjoy Bomber Star Level 2, and Cannon Star Level 3!
