Structured by Nerf Radar from the official notes (parsed automatically and reviewed by hand). Official Supercell Clash Royale release notes as fetched. NERFS and BUFFS follow Supercell's own headings, REWORKS are labeled adjust, and a stat that moves the opposite way to its heading carries a note. Supercell posts a date but no version number, so the date is the post's UTC date. Designer commentary is not tracked. Lines whose stat owner or wording is unclear are held.
