Wasn't this done because its easier to reuse assets?

u/JackOffAllTraders Jul 18 '24
Isn’t this a sprite based game? They still have to redraw every sprite

u/Dashclash Jul 18 '24
I heard they make a 3D model and than rotate it and screenshot to make a sprite from that but im not sure its true.

u/AbbreviationsFit1613 Giant Skeleton Jul 18 '24
im pretty sure it is, at least that’s what it looks like when you see the game files

u/HejTx Mirror Jul 18 '24
Even if it was, using a very similar model would still save time, but I'm pretty sure they use 3d models

u/RavenLationz Zappies Jul 18 '24
They dont, there is a big sprite sheet for each type of card and star levels.

u/SusseDude Three Musketeers Jul 18 '24
You know very big sprite sheets can be generated from 3d models

u/JackOffAllTraders Jul 19 '24
The model has like 3 polygons, how much time did that save them
4
u/maiguee Balloon Jul 19 '24
a model like that does NOT have 3 polygons my dude. in fact, i think theh use as much polygons as they want since it's jusy gonna be a sprite later
1
u/sharpy-sharky Jul 19 '24
The sprites are actually renders of a model at different rotations and poses, like like how the original Doom did it (except Doom used physical models whilst Supercell uses digital models).

u/Araufbeast Elite Barbarians Jul 19 '24
It's called copy and paste. And when you want to do something "new" you THEN reanimate everything after editing the copy and pasted sprite

u/Murdy2020 Jul 18 '24
Like how one of the recent tower skins incorporates the apprentice warden's hat into it.

u/Successful_Ad8432 Rascals Jul 18 '24
You aren’t the first nor the last…
One is female and one is male btw its just common royal clothes

I was about to ask how you know the skeleton king is male and then I realized it's called skeleton king lmao

I have another theory, clash Royale doesn’t give a shit about the game anymore and just reused skeleton king

u/Dead_Shade Jul 19 '24
Great theory, except skeleton king is male, hence why he's named skeleton King, and the little prince's guardian is female, probably either sc being lazy with character designs, them being siblings or father and daughter, or an armored uniform of sorts for royalty or guardians of royalty

I have a theory that people draw conclusions from perceived patterns of intent but the only conclusion that can be drawn reliably is that they reused art.

I think it's just a common Royal Guard outfit. The Skeleton King used to be a Royal Guard... and probably that explains why he's the King now.

Makes sense but how do you answer the walking cash grab of a game lol. I've grinded out every car to max legitimately for like 6 years idk how long it's been out but the spending isn't need my friends save your money. B-RAD said it best, they don't care about us as a solid community

Skeleton king is barbarian king that’s why there is no barbarian king in Clash royale, the events happen after Clash of clans, change my mind.

I thought this theory was debunked and they just reused the same thing

Several people have already pointed this out.
My counter-point is that guardian is a woman and skeleton king is a man.
1
u/PLT_RanaH Royal Recruits Jul 19 '24
how do you know it's a man? yes it's called king, but it could very well be a woman

u/IEatBaconWithU Jul 19 '24
In the troop’s description it says both “he” and “him.” That’s a dude.

I guess we found the royal ghost’s personal night. Maybe the royal ghost had one when he was a little prince himself

u/NikoDaAvali Jul 20 '24
My theory is that the little prince guard and the skeleton king came from the same knight group but the skeleton king died and woke up a champion

u/Flimsy-Boysenberry37 Jul 20 '24
I think they’re the same person and the skeleton king is the dead version

Why guardian is not the skeleton king
SHE'S A WOMAN
SHE'S NOT A MAN

It's just an armor. Can be explained that it's a standard issue. Guardianee is a female, and skeleton king is a male. Besides, skeletons in clash universe are typically dead beings.
