Balance Blog Series: August 2016
The team is in full swing working on the next major update. In the meanwhile, we have a small balancing patch going out with the following changes:

• Cannon damage increased for levels 11-14
We currently are developing a better defensive answer to mass-attacks of mid-size units. For now, a Cannon damage boost will help pick up the slack.

• Healers trigger air traps (once again)
Healers have become a staple high-level troop, but stay out of defensive range too safely, sometimes for the entire battle. Cue the Seeking Air Mines!

• Miner movement speed reduced
Miners are a bit too speedy for a unit that burrows underground, making them too effective at overwhelming and wiping out entire Villages.

• Attackers can deploy more of their army before Eagle Artillery will activate
Eagle Artillery's quick activation limits phase-based attacks more than it needs to. This change gives attackers more early battle flexibility.


Note that these changes are not live yet, we will let you know when we're ready to deploy it with a maintenance break!

Cannon up = gob knife nerf?

It is mostly being buffed to help combat all these OP'd ground attacks. I wonder how much of a buff they will receive across all levels % wise.

rip healrs... enjoy them while they last

nah, just take a couple of loons instead of 4-5 healers and have them soak up the mine damage.

People will start building bases so that AQ has to start at a certain point. example make1 air defense with the queen easy to get too and plant traps around that area. sending 1 loon will trigger all traps and Queen walk should still work good.

ur talking about war but i talk about trophy pushing...

Finally the goddamn queen walks will die out.
