Card Mastery

Card mastery is a brand new feature that unlocks at King Level 7 and adds a way for players to showcase their skills, get rewards, and add an alternative progression into the game.
To unlock Card Mastery Tasks for a Card, you will first need to win 5 battles with that card in Ladder (1v1 Battles), Tournaments, Party Modes, Clan Wars, or Challenges.
Each Card has two sets of tasks that can be unlocked for all of the cards in the game. Depending on the Card rarity, you will need to upgrade the Card to a certain level before unlocking a set of tasks.
The first set of tasks will be basic ones, like dealing damage to troops or buildings, or spawning units with Spawners (Buildings that generate units, such as the Goblin Hut or the Furnace).
The second set of tasks will require you to use a Card in specific situations or more precise ways.
The third set of tasks is currently locked and will be added in future updates.

Mighty Miner (New Champion Card)

He is a single-target melee troop that targets ground units, and is the tankiest Champion of them all!
His special ability, Explosive Escape, costs 2 elixirs to use and allows him to burrow underground and dig out to the horizontally mirrored position, leaving a big bomb as a goodbye gift.
Let’s not forget about his drill! It works like the Inferno Dragon’s fire beam and will build up damage over time, making him very strong against units with a lot of health and towers.

Improvements

Added the paste deck option for Tournaments and Challenges
Hiding the crown counter during battle and only showing it when a tower is destroyed.
Added visual area of effect for the Lightning Card.
120Hz mode toggle has been enabled for all supported devices.
Further improvements for UI layout on various screen resolutions and ratios.
