October 2026 Balance Changes NOT LIVE YET Some balance changes are coming to buff some underused/under performing troops/equipment and to nerf some overperforming items. (Stats come from TH18 vs TH18 attacks in Clan Wars and CWL over the last 4 weeks. Source: Supercell) Dragon Duke: Fire Heart Used in 40% of all attacks with Dragon Duke with a hit rate of 66%. Without it, it is 56% (overall average is 53%). Ruin Witch: Ruin Knights Ruin Witch attacks have a 76% hit rate, the highest of any troop that sees meaningful use. Ruin Knights were unaffected by Spring Traps, so this is now changing, along with movement speed, HP and DPS reduction. Underused Troops Hog Rider, Miner and P.E.K.K.A are used in <3% of attacks with hit rates between 20-35%. Super variants are barely used also. Meteor Golem is used more, but still below average. Frozen Arrow Used in ~7% of attacks with a ~31% hit rate. Portal Pendant Now gets an HP boost for the Minion Prince. The other equipment includes an HP boost, this being missing on release was an oversight. #ClashofClans
