Why This Base Works

The Hot Candle section makes Hero pathing difficult and helps disrupt Queen Charge attacks.

The core is designed to make Thrower attacks awkward and difficult to path. The Revenge Tower sits in an isolated spot, so it is difficult to remove.

Trap Placement

  • Bombs and Giant Bombs: At 5 and 7 o'clock. They stop Hero Charges.
  • Air Bombs: At the Town Hall. They take down Healers.
  • Seeking Air Mines: At 5 and 7 o'clock. They take a chunk of health off the Duke.

What Attacks Does This Base Counter?

  • Queen Charge Super Bowler: The Hot Candle section is tricky for a Queen Charge entry, and a large dead zone makes it hard for Super Bowlers to reach the Town Hall.
  • Thrower Smash: The core has multiple wall sections, so an attacker must open 3 to 4 layers to reach it.
