The highlight of the Inferno Dragon Evolution is its unique Beam Momentum ability. Normally, the Inferno Dragon resets its fire beam when switching targets, making it less effective against mid-sized troops and mobile enemies.

Now, the evolved version keeps the strength of its beam for nine seconds even after retargeting. This allows you to seamlessly continue burning down Crown Towers or high-HP troops without losing progress. However, stun effects still reset the beam’s strength, so you still need to position the troop's attack carefully.

Additionally, the evolved card introduces a fourth damage stage. If your beam lands uninterrupted hits for 20 seconds, it reaches an incredible 2,110 DPS, almost matching the Inferno Tower’s peak damage.

Stats of Clash Royale Inferno Dragon Evolution

In terms of stats, the Inferno Dragon Evolution doesn’t differ from its regular counterpart in health or speed. The core difference lies in its damage stages during a continuous beam. Starting at 88 DPS, the beam's damage ramps up to 300 DPS after two seconds, then escalates to 1,055 DPS at four seconds, and if uninterrupted for twenty seconds, maxes out at 2,110 DPS.

Note that achieving this final stage in a live battle is rare, but the extended beam retention still makes it far more threatening against persistent threats and late-game pushes.
