The introduction of champions has brought new mechanics to keep the game fresh but to balance the champions and fix some bugs Clash Royale released a patch in November. The bugs were removed but a new set of glitches and bugs were introduced which has led to a lot of interactions changing thus an unpleasant experience in Clash Royale, including a bug in Bandit, among others.
Rick Crane, Community manager of Clash Royale responded to the bugs that were being reported on November 15 by saying that they are aware of the issues but due to the 2021 CRL World Finals approaching they would not like to tinker with the cards, to allow players to practice before the tournament with a prize pool of $1,000,000 starts.
Clash Royal bug – Details of affected cards
The cards that have been plagued by bugs are detailed as below :
- Cash Royale Bandit bug: Bandit and Golden Knight both have the unique ability of dash and it is this unique ability which is the cause of concern. Bandit while dashing gains immunity to damage but post the update she lost this ability, making her not viability and pretty much useless.
- Cash Royale Golden Knight bug: Golden Knight is one of the most bugged cards. He gets stuck while trying to dash making infinite attempts to dash and failing time and again. The other problem that he faces is that when he dashes sometimes enemy troops instead of locking onto him lock on the princess/ king tower making his defensive abilities bad.
- Cash Royale Executioner bug: Executioner is sometimes not able to judge his range correctly and follows enemy troops only to later reroute his path on finding his range inept to hit the enemy.
- Cash Royale X-Bow bug: The dashing mechanic has not only been problematic for Golden Knight and Bandit but has also caused targeting issues for X-bow. When a unit dashes X-bow changes its target.
- Cash Royale Fisherman bug: Fisherman gets completely frozen after defeating enemies until another enemy troop comes within his range. This bug was reported by players last year as well but at that time it was only happening in touchdown.
Apart from the glitches that cards have been facing, another game-breaking bug has been reported that causes troops to do damage to the tower even after overtime has expired.
Players have been vocal on social media platforms like Reddit, Twitter and in response, Community Manager Max tweeted that the team is working on fixing all the bugs but due to other development issues they are currently unable to release the patch.
For now, the Clash Royale team is working hard to fix the bug that is causing all the troubles related to Bandit, X-Bow, etc, and hopefully, players will get back to the fair play environment very soon.
