] over to Clash Royale. In that game, two clans match up in a preparation and battle phase, though Clash Royale likely won't have anything resembling a preparation phase. It's likely that two clans of relatively equal strength will be matched up and face off against one another in a series of battle to prove who's the better clan, with potential rewards. Supercell revealed the feature over the weekend, with a major update set to hit the game on April 24th. Check out the trailer video, which licensed "Never Gonna Give You Up" by Rick Astley, apparently! This is a huge deal, unless Clan Wars winds up just being a Rickroll.

Turns out Supercell wasn't under-delivering on that, as Clan Wars might serve as an adequate way to get clans working together in Clash Royale beyond just trying to get chests.

Oh yeah, folks, I think Lightning is back. Or, at least it's back to being a decent card. Of course, if we could just tell what the impact on a meta was going to be from text changes alone, there would be no reason to play the games. Half the fun is seeing what happens, eh?
