Clash of Clans April 2026 Update: New Levels & Strategy

The April 2026 update delivers a wealth of new levels across your home village, giving competitive attackers and base builders plenty to plan for. On the offensive side, the Army Camp receives a crucial Level 14 upgrade that adds +3 capacity per camp (instead of the usual +5), raising your maximum troop capacity to 352. This is a top priority if you want to squeeze more firepower into your attacks.

To counter air-heavy metas, you can now build a second Air Bomb. Meanwhile, the Siege Workshop unlocks Level 9, which is required to craft an upcoming new Siege Machine — start stockpiling resources now.

Supercharge Strategy: Damage First

Supercharges expand further with new levels. Your most efficient upgrade path is to apply damage-based supercharges (Level 1) to all eligible buildings before moving on to HP-based ones (Level 2). Key damage boosts include the Revenge Tower (+28 DPS), Inferno Tower (+200 single-mode damage, +10 multi-mode), and the Fire Spitter, which gets a significant damage increase. Minor improvements also come to the Hidden Tesla and Mortar.

Laboratory: Troops and Spells

The Laboratory has 10 troops and 6 spells receiving new levels. Upgrading a base troop automatically boosts its Super Troop version. Key troop increases: Balloon and Dragon reach Level 13, Golem hits Level 15 with a massive +1,000 HP, Valkyrie climbs to Level 12, Root Rider to Level 4, Headhunter to Level 4, Druid to Level 6, and Goblin to Level 10 for more efficient raiding.

Spell upgrades include Rage to Level 7 (+10% damage, +2 speed), Freeze to Level 8 (+0.5s duration), and one level each for Clone (9), Recall (7), Overgrowth (5), and Ice Block (6).
