The May 2024 season, otherwise known as Season 59, will have one of the biggest Clash Royale updates to date because of the many balance changes it will introduce. We'll show you everything you need to know about it.
Season 59 will be debuting in Clash Royale on May 6, and with it, will come new Card Evolutions, events, and balance changes. The latter is often the most consequential part of any new season update in the game as it can have a huge impact on the meta and the best decks that dominate game modes like The Path Of Legends.
The coming balance changes will be the biggest we've ever seen this year due to the heavy amount of nerfs affecting a large batch of popular cards. RoyaleAPI gave us a preview of the final balance changes. These changes are final, so these are confirmed to be introduced to the game in the coming days.
That said, here's what to expect from Season 59's balance changes in Clash Royale.
Clash Royale May Balance Changes
The upcoming balance changes will have buffs, nerfs, and reworks. As mentioned earlier, Season 59 will have significantly more nerfs than usual. These will target the stats of many Card Evolutions and Tower Troops to reduce their power levels in the current meta as they can be slightly overpowered.
Besides that, a handful of Card Evolutions are going to be reworked and two other regular cards are going to be buffed. We have listed each buff, nerf, and rework in the tables below:
