User blog:Type: Sparky/Summer June 2018 update has launched!

The most game-changing update yet has launched just in time for Supercell's summer! We have new cards, new Clan War features, and cards moving Arenas!

...guess they got bored of their old Arenas?

Molten Snowballs and Roasted Bacon
Two new cards have been released, and we can expect a third in July. The Giant Snowball and Royal Hogs can be collected now.

Giant Snowball
The Giant Snowball is a 2 Elixir Common card. It is unlocked in Frozen Peak. It launches a snowball at a desired spot, doing only 124 damage and knocking back all but the heaviest units, as well as slowing them all down for 2 seconds. It cools down opponent swarms and pushes, because you don't want the heat to get to their head and your Princess Towers, but its low damage makes it fall into the territory of 2 Elixir utility spells like Zap and The Log. We'll see how it fares against the summer heat.

Royal Hogs
The Royal Hogs is a 5 Elixir Rare card. It is unlocked in Hog Mountain. The Royal Hogs summons four hogs with helmets but no riders which charge single-mindedly for the nearest building. They are very fast and jump over the river, but have only 630 health and 70 damage each. Since there are four of these royal pains in the neck, though, they can do a lot of damage together. They're the King's pets, they're fast, and they're going to get roasted in the summer heat. Who let the hogs out?

Cards Moving Arenas
For the first time in the history of Clash Royale, the different cards unlocked in different Arenas have been changed!

The cards have been moved to make more powerful cards unlockable earlier and moving cards with low use rates and more complicated use rates to higher Arenas. Arenas also now thematically match as much as possible, and to create Arenas where cards complement each other mechanically. Don't worry! As of now, anyone who had any card before the update which was moved to a higher Arena will still have that card.

A full list of cards moved has been provided, with both visuals and a list of cards moved to the Arenas.

Legendary Changes To The Arena
This high-level Arena has received some love. For all of you League fanatics out there, rejoice! The season reset will only deduct half the Trophies you've earned past 4000 up to 7600. This ensures that lower level players do not get matched against higher level players, and gives everyone an incentive to push more. The Leagues now have truly legendary battles - Sudden Death now lasts 3 minutes instead of 1! Get your decks ready for some legendary new seasons.

Emote Icons
At last, new Emotes! They may be paid, but the new Princess and Goblin emotes are a refreshing break from the usual King emotes. The sounds for emotes have also been updated. Get Princess and Goblin emotes in packs of 4 for a low price, and get bundles that come with emotes as well! Craft your emote deck and look out for new emotes being released.

Clan Wars
A series of minor but good changes. Gold rewards have been DOUBLED for everything Clan Wars! Never be stuck with only one damaging spell again! You can also rewatch your Clan's War Day battles and spectate enemy Clans' battles from their boats. Enemy Clans can be checked from the War Leaderboard, and your social tab lights up gold if you haven't done your War Day battle yet. Players who miss their War Day battle see a popup reminder, and you can now copy your War Deck to your Battle Deck. The Collection Day gamemodes have also been switched up to keep things fresh!
