官方亲上火线在Reddit回复了当时改动卫队的原因

以下是小弟我弱弱的翻译，
若有误译或是漏字还请多多指教
The patch note would have been:
**ROYAL RECRUITS** **Elixir Cost Increased to 8**
这次的更新将会是:
***皇家卫队*** **水费上升为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.
皇家卫队有个新型部署方式且独特于皇室战争中
我们定位这张卡片为粉丝牌，
让你可以用水费换取更多的站场相较于其他普通军队
然而，因为他的分散性质以及护盾，
让人难以有效地使用范围伤害且在皇家卫队上取得优势
如同对付野蛮人或是亡灵群一般
我们已经移除了"粉丝折扣"，
让这张卡片的费用完全地反映于卡片的站场数量
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.
今天如此快速改动的原因有以下三种:
一、最重要的，事先预定好的皇家卫队宝箱今天上架
二、今早开始的皇家卫队练习赛
三、这张卡片的平衡性未如我们的预期
我们今早讨论著玩家会如何因为购买皇家卫队宝箱
或是使用错误的卡片体验进行挑战赛
而带来不好的感受
虽然我们已经事先声明一定会削弱这张卡片于Twitter和Reddit上，
但我们意识到这仅仅让少部分的玩家得知这个声明而已
犯了这个错误(平衡性疏失)是OK的，
但我们有义务尽可能快地解决此卡的平衡性问题。
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.
我们觉得在今天削弱这张卡片是最好的决定
为了确保大多数的玩家能有确切的卡片体验于练习赛中
且最小化那些因卫队的6水费而买了宝箱的玩家数量
记得，大多数的玩家并不知道卫队即将被削弱，
但24小时内每个人需要知道皇家卫队的水费已经改为8了
这是最佳的情况(不完美，也不理想但是最佳)
而非在卡片释出后这两个多礼拜内，
使天梯前端以及挑战赛的meta不健康
之后的礼拜一(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.
虽然我们知道玩家们对于此次立即改动的错愕，
但我们有着时间的压力去改动让玩家们没有错误的卡片体验
至于8水费(而非7水费)，事实上站场的总数应接近8费而非7费
他们的设计目的是成为一个强壮的军团，
且我们觉得他们有那么点适合"这个角色"的担当
若是他们太弱势，我们可以之后再强化他们
且实际上在8水费中，他们将不会容易地被放入不同的牌组中
给与他们7水费可能造成此削弱不足，
所以我们选择最保险的决定
是为了让挑战赛以及即将到来的CRL赛季尽可能地有比赛性可言
Good luck in the Arena, balance changes will be deployed as normal on August 6th
!
祝你好运~!
另外下一次的平衡性更新将会如常发布于8月6号~!
