A recent buzz inside the Clash Royale player community has brought us to explore an interesting in-game phenomenon: two cards bearing unusually shiny borders. ‘ThEgReAtE_PaNcAkE’, questions: ‘Is it a bug or some weird thing I missed?’

Summary

  • ‘Orneyrocks’ gifts us with his strategy-focused observation: cards placed in the evolution slot tend to shine.
  • Humorously speculating on the mystery, ‘Epic-Dude001’ suggests: ‘They got new polish for it.’
  • Simple and short, ‘eltonaze006’ suspects it’s a bug.

The Theory of Evolution

The advice from ‘Orneyrocks’ to use single card decks to observe the shine resonates with many. ‘Tav0ks’ adds that both the cards’ evolution and star level might be behind the shine. Like a trick question from a pop quiz, the answer seems less straightforward than it initially appeared.

Star-Studded Speculations

‘OkSubstance7574’ directs us to star levels as a possible reason for the shiny trim. This deductive thread is extended by ROYALEZOMBIE11’s comment, pointing out that a bundle of visual effects, including the evolution slot and star level, might be contributing to the glittering spectacle.

Fleeting Brilliance

Despite all the excitement, ‘Sad_Office_1561’ reveals the effect might be temporary, adding that he witnessed the shining effect for the first few days of the season but then it evaporated. It leaves us with an unsatisfied curiosity – is the shine simply on vacation, or has it permanently retired from these cards?

Kudos to these keyboard-clacking detectives who make the world of Clash Royale a little less perplexing with their insights, advice, and humour. Sure, the shimmering borders could just be a bug – or as ‘Epic-Dude001’ quipped, maybe the cards just got a fresh polish – but we’d like to think that it’s a conspiracy led by the Clash Royale team to keep us all wondering! So here’s a hat tip to the classics: the game is afoot!
