We'll break down all the buffs, nerfs, and reworks that were introduced to Clash Royale in August's balance changes.

Season 74 is here in Clash Royale, and it brought along with it, as usual, a new batch of monthly balance changes.
The goal of these buffs, nerfs, and reworks is simple: To balance the meta by upgrading/downgrading the stats or abilities of cards based on their performance in the game.
The new season began in Clash Royale on August 4, 2025. The confirmed list of the balance changes for Season 74 has been made available, and that's what we'll be diving into today.
