官方親上火線在Reddit回覆了當時改動衛隊的原因

以下是小弟我弱弱的翻譯，
若有誤譯或是漏字還請多多指教
The patch note would have been:
**ROYAL RECRUITS** **Elixir Cost Increased to 8**
這次的更新將會是:
***皇家衛隊*** **水費上升為8**
Recruits are a new type of deployment that is unique to Clash Royale. We had pri
ced this card like a swarm, where you get more stats for the cost than normal Tr
oops. However, because of the wide spread and Shields, it was difficult to effec
tively put splash damage on the Recruits and take advantage of them like you can
against Barbarians or Minion Horde. We have removed the ‘swarm discount’, mak
ing the card full price for the stats provided.
皇家衛隊有個新型部署方式且獨特於皇室戰爭中
我們定位這張卡片為粉絲牌，
讓你可以用水費換取更多的站場相較於其他普通軍隊
然而，因為他的分散性質以及護盾，
讓人難以有效地使用範圍傷害且在皇家衛隊上取得優勢
如同對付野蠻人或是亡靈群一般
我們已經移除了"粉絲折扣"，
讓這張卡片的費用完全地反映於卡片的站場數量
The reason this change came in today relatively fast was three-fold: Most impor
tantly, the pre-scheduled Chest offer went live today. Secondly, the Practice C
hallenge went live this morning. Thirdly, their balance was clearly off the cha
rts. We were discussing this morning how it felt bad that people would be buyin
g the chest or playing the challenge with the wrong impression of the card. Tho
ugh we had announced the upcoming nerf on Twitter and Reddit, we realized that t
his would only reach a tiny % of the total player base. It is okay to make mist
akes, but it is also our responsibility to clean them up as quickly as possible.
今天如此快速改動的原因有以下三種:
一、最重要的，事先預定好的皇家衛隊寶箱今天上架
二、今早開始的皇家衛隊練習賽
三、這張卡片的平衡性未如我們的預期
我們今早討論著玩家會如何因為購買皇家衛隊寶箱
或是使用錯誤的卡片體驗進行挑戰賽
而帶來不好的感受
雖然我們已經事先聲明一定會削弱這張卡片於Twitter和Reddit上，
但我們意識到這僅僅讓少部分的玩家得知這個聲明而已
犯了這個錯誤(平衡性疏失)是OK的，
但我們有義務盡可能快地解決此卡的平衡性問題。
We decided that it would be better to nerf them today and ensure most of the pla
yer base got an accurate feeling of the card during the practice and minimize th
e amount of people who would purchase Chests under the impression they cost 6 El
ixir. Remember, most people have no idea they are going to be nerfed soon, but
within 24 hours everyone should know they will cost 8. This is a better situati
on (not perfect, not ideal, but better) than nerfing them Monday after the offer
or 10 days from now leaving top ladder and challenge metas in an unhealthy stat
e for over 2 weeks.
我們覺得在今天削弱這張卡片是最好的決定
為了確保大多數的玩家能有確切的卡片體驗於練習賽中
且最小化那些因衛隊的6水費而買了寶箱的玩家數量
記得，大多數的玩家並不知道衛隊即將被削弱，
但24小時內每個人需要知道皇家衛隊的水費已經改為8了
這是最佳的情況(不完美，也不理想但是最佳)
而非在卡片釋出後這兩個多禮拜內，
使天梯前端以及挑戰賽的meta不健康
之後的禮拜一(8/6)才削弱他
While I understand player frustration at the suddenness of it, there was a time
pressure to change quickly as every assing minute meant more players getting th
e wrong impression of the card. Regarding 8 cost (rather than 7), the truth is
the total sum of stats was much closer to 8 than 7. Their design goal was to be
a big beefy army, and we feel comfortable that at 8 cost they will fill that "b
uild around me" sort of role. If they are too weak, we can buff them later comf
ortable in the fact that at 8 cost they won't slot into multiple archetypes that
easily. But given their strength right now, there was a chance that 7 cost wou
ld not be enough of a nerf so we opted for the safest route to make Challenges a
nd the upcoming CRL season as competitive as possible.
雖然我們知道玩家們對於此次立即改動的錯愕，
但我們有著時間的壓力去改動讓玩家們沒有錯誤的卡片體驗
至於8水費(而非7水費)，事實上站場的總數應接近8費而非7費
他們的設計目的是成為一個強壯的軍團，
且我們覺得他們有那麼點適合"這個角色"的擔當
若是他們太弱勢，我們可以之後再強化他們
且實際上在8水費中，他們將不會容易地被放入不同的牌組中
給與他們7水費可能造成此削弱不足，
所以我們選擇最保險的決定
是為了讓挑戰賽以及即將到來的CRL賽季盡可能地有比賽性可言
Good luck in the Arena, balance changes will be deployed as normal on August 6th
!
祝你好運~!
另外下一次的平衡性更新將會如常發布於8月6號~!
