Why This Base Works
This base slows troops down well before they reach the Town Hall. Two Poison Towers weaken troop groups on the sides as they approach.
Storages are positioned to push Root Riders into walking around the base instead of straight into the core. Teslas, Skeleton Traps, and Bombs are placed specifically to stop Royal Champion charges, and Black Mines counter Dragons and Root Rider walks from the air. A Tornado Trap at 6 o'clock pulls Royal Champion into a high-damage danger zone.
