Why This Base Works
This base places the Town Hall on the edge, giving up an easy percentage there in exchange for putting the Dark Elixir storage securely at the center.
Other storages stay inside the base for protection too, and they double as bait, drawing Dragons away from your key defenses.
What Attacks Does This Base Counter?
- Dragon attacks: The storages inside the base act as bait, pulling Dragons off target instead of letting them go straight for your defenses.
