Why This Base Works
The Town Hall sits in the core with the two air X-Bows and the Clan Castle. They protect the Town Hall from attackers going for 2 stars.
The Air X-Bows, Air Defenses and Archer Towers sit inside the base. Together they deal a lot of damage to air armies.
The traps are placed for the current Ranked meta.
Trap Placement
- Spring Traps: On the Hog Rider path. They fling Hog Riders out of the map.
- Skeleton Trap: In the Tesla farm section. The skeletons slow down enemy troops.
- Bombs: On the outside. They bait Wall Breakers that try to open the walls.
- Giant Bomb: On the Hog Rider path. It kills a group of Hog Riders.
- Black Air Mines: At the Air Defenses. They take a chunk out of high hitpoint air troops.
What Attacks Does This Base Counter?
- Zap Dragon: Lightning Spells get less value on the Air Defenses.
- Golem & Witch: The Wizard Towers are placed inside to handle both Witches and skeletons.
- Queen Charge Hog Rider: The two air X-Bows at the Town Hall deal serious damage to the Queen Charge, and the Giant Bomb sits on the key Hog Rider path.
- LaLoon: The two air X-Bows and all the Air Defenses sit inside the base. They deal high damage to Lava Hounds and Balloons.
