3. ⚔️ Minion Horde Deck Gameplay: Disappointing Performance
· We played two matches with a Minion Horde deck.
· In the first match, the Minion Horde didn't play a decisive role, and we won by destroying the tower thanks to the Mini P.E.K.K.A.'s performance.
· The opponent used Lightning, Tornado, and Barbarian Barrel, but lacked Arrows, resulting in insufficient counters for the Minion Horde.
· The Minion Horde also didn't show much activity in the second match.
· The Minion Horde tended to be neutralized by the opponent's area-damage cards like Magic Archer and Wizard.
· It was confirmed that the Minion Horde is still a weak card in the meta when its evolution ability is not applied.

4. 🚀 Balloon Deck Gameplay: Key Card for Victory
· We played two matches with a Balloon deck.
· In the first match, the Balloon dealt 1080 damage to the opponent's tower, applying strong early pressure.
· Despite the opponent's defense, we won by destroying the tower with the Balloon's main attack and explosion damage.
· In the second match, the Balloon was also very useful as a key win condition card.
· The Balloon is not a weak card in the current meta and is a powerful card found even in variations of Lava Hound decks.
· The massive damage the Balloon deals upon reaching a tower is still threatening.
· If the Champion Balloon's Skeletons can act as mini-tanks, it is expected to greatly assist the Balloon's attack connections.

5. 💡 Overall Review and Next Season Expectations
· The Champion Balloon is an interesting card with powerful abilities, but there are also opinions that Champion cards themselves diminish the fun of Clash Royale.
· The Minion Horde was a long-forgotten card, so this evolution is expected to give it a chance to shine in the meta again.
· These new cards are scheduled to be implemented in the game on April 6th, when the next season begins.
