Four compartments protect the core Town Hall, the Mortar covers the whole top side, and open walls on the flanks confuse ground pathing. Red Air Bombs sit right where Balloon parades fly.

TH5 War Base FAQ

What is the best TH5 war base?

TH5 Anti-2 War Base #2 is the best pick for war. Its four-section layout keeps the Town Hall deep in the center with the Air Defense, Wizard Tower, and Cannon clustered around it, so a two-star finish is a real challenge. Air Bombs catch Balloon waves and Bombs punish grouped Wizards pushing in.

What is the difference between anti-2 and anti-3 war bases?

An anti-2-star base protects the Town Hall so attackers only get one star. An anti-3-star base spreads out defenses so a full clear is hard, but the Town Hall is less protected. For most TH5 wars, anti-2 is the safer pick.

Are these TH5 war bases free?

Yes. Every base on ClashBaseLink is free, with working copy links, and we add new ranked bases every month.
