[primal notch]

Gonna get hog gliders

[pearl pollen]

flybrid both

offset BH

Yessir

[gilded vigil]

My eyes hurt

[pearl pollen]

Maybe you have eye strain

Idk

I'm not a doctor

[gilded vigil]

By looking at that bh8/bh9 rushed base

[magic matrix]

Wow, you a town hall 3

??

[magic matrix]

Hi

Hi

[gilded vigil]

Howdy

[misty tinsel]

Hella rushed

💩

Even more rushed than me

I’m like the lowest acceptable rusher

I rush my th but I upgrade the key defenses to max and walls as well as troops barracks etc

I ignore stuff like mortars archer towers etc

[pearl pollen]

Well you haven't seen the post-update engineered bases I presume

[jade jackal]

Any1 got a good bh7 base? Just upgraded

[pearl pollen]

Maybe #builder-base-links?

[brittle island]

I just grab a decent looking base in links

Haven’t seen any more

My current one gets murdered by hogs

[storm tulip]

this is my progress base

oof its not updated

[brittle island]

Ah similar levels

You reached 4.7k or 5k

Cuz to qualify for the role it got changed to 5k now

[storm tulip]

@brittle island i dont really see hogs a lot, it looks like u could get 5k if u just maxed ur armies

5k

[brittle island]

Yeah I see SOME hog attacks

Whenever I see them it’s usually a triple

And assortment of mass hogs or hog pekka

[storm tulip]

well than just go again ig

[brittle island]

I’m not the best attacker with pekka carts

The carts love to frick around in lava

[storm tulip]

oh btw, this ss was taken after i pushed so i probobly had slightly lower levels

[brittle island]

Ah

Troops?

[storm tulip]

all max except for night witch and hogs, but i only used dropship minions

[brittle island]

Ah

[pearl pollen]

It's because the trap placements

Springs can be improved.

[humble jay]

Hiya

[humble jay]

I have building guide vid

[pearl pollen]

Yup

Wrong channel lmao

[humble jay]

Oh

So which channel

@pearl pollen

#home-base-strategy or #base-links

[storm tulip]

A video?

[humble jay]

So #home-base-strategy ?

[pearl pollen]

Yea

I think its already been posted there

[primal notch]

just got bh to lvl 9 yesterday

now building lava launcher

And very soon i will gear up my mortar and get cannon carts to lvl 18

Bum im far away from battle machine lvl 30 and mega tesla lvl 9

[pearl pollen]

Those two are actually nice because

when you can take mega tesla down

then you battle and after a few days you'll have enough for BM, exactly when ur mega tesla finishes

so you'll always be having nonstop upgrades

and time will never be wasted

[misty tinsel]

Literally what I’m doing now lol

I used to never upgrade my bm

I just started to upgrade it a month ago btw I’m bh9

I have mega Tesla at level 9 and bm at level 17

I used to never really play builder base but recently I’ve set my mind into getting the sixth builders

[humble jay]

@primal notch same lol

Also

V e r y effective, I must say

[dreamy marten]

Nice uh

Pillars

Almost at 1k with this scrap

[misty tinsel]

Damn how

That’s pretty nasty

[obsidian topaz]

Anything I should change? Maybe the whole base?

[worldly tendon]

imo bigger storage farm at roaster

left side looks too easy to nw

[pearl pollen]

Centralize the GP

Yea you probably want AB and roaster to cover different areas

[obsidian topaz]

Yeaaa your right because the left and right side always gets attacked by giants, bombers, and cannons. (And the builder as a distraction I believe)

[pearl pollen]

a bomber at 4 o clock opens all the comps

See bomber splash guide

[obsidian topaz]

Alright I will thank you

[dreamy marten]

^ what cow said

Giant cannon is deadly against carts and spammy ground attacks in general

[warped kayak]

k

[dreamy marten]

I would also move the crushers closer to the center

[warped kayak]

anyone th11

[dreamy marten]

I was th11 a week ago

[warped kayak]

oh

im th11

im fixing my rished base

[pearl pollen]

I used to be th11 semirush

[dreamy marten]

I was rushed up until th9, took me two th levels to fix it

[primal notch]

My brother just maxxed his bh. hes not rushing.

He is bh 2.

[pearl pollen]

🤣

[storm tulip]

had us in the first half not gonna lie

[humble jay]

Lol

[dreamy marten]

https://youtu.be/Ob0yatepC4g

[pearl pollen]

Dam that's crazy

The bats tank for AB I guess

[gilded vigil]

I mean its frieza

He loses all the time

[storm tulip]

shit

[visual dragon]

lol

[storm tulip]

rlly gotta give me reasons to actually care about night witches?

[visual dragon]

lol

NW are fun to use

[storm tulip]

only if u lower bh where u just spam em in a corner

[visual dragon]

But its so painful when they get targeted by lava launcher

[visual dragon]

didn't say they were good. just fun

[storm tulip]

hm

i think it's notable how in this replay my man @dreamy marten got lucky as shit when his BM targeted the toaster and was out of crusher range

[visual dragon]

IKR

My BM always goes for two defenses: Crusher and wall

No exceptions

[storm tulip]

the exception is when he's being run by the master builder who isnt a bumbling idiot

[gilded vigil]

My bm is smart

Giants makes it up for them tho

[visual dragon]

no exceptions 🤣

[storm tulip]

thats what u would think right??? yet here we are lmao

[visual dragon]

Apparently he has a champion builder

Higher than Master builder

[gilded vigil]

Doesn't really matter

[dreamy marten]

Lmao 100% calculated

[visual dragon]

totally

[dreamy marten]

Fr that base was the perfect base for nw

Shoved in a corner, roaster on far end, not only behind builder hall but out of range

Just gotta spread your minions out enough so that ab don't clap half your killsquad out in two hits and ez triple

Didn't expect the bm to get that far in, my goal was just to have him move along with the killsquad, but that base was done for regardless

[pearl pollen]

Nah the AB couldn't target the minions because the bats were directly on top of it

[misty tinsel]

I smack pp

[dreamy marten]

Sometimes you won't be so lucky, just make sure it won't cost you so much

[worldly tendon]

im thinking about 5 minions 1 dropship

[pearl pollen]

maybe

I've seen all minion before, so that might work?

[magic matrix]

[humble jay]

Is this a good base?

Bh9

Base

[dreamy marten]

Switch guard post with 10 oc tesla

Those storages inside of the bh compartment aren't necessary, switch them out with defenses

[pearl pollen]

That trophy count lmao

[dreamy marten]

Crushers should be kept further inside

Lmao

[turbid scarab]

now thats a base

[dreamy marten]

I mean i have one third of his trophies so can't really say anything here

[pearl pollen]

You haven't seen hogs yet, but when you do, those crusher and mega tesla placements will hurt

Lmao

Those walls literally are used for one moat at BH9

[dreamy marten]

Lmao

With like two buildings inside

[zinc swallow]

Hey guys

[storm tulip]

Hi

[worldly tendon]

hey cow

ever tried using more than 1 comp?

im curious to see if i can bully less experienced players since rn all im getting hit with is pekkas giants cc and barbs

[pearl pollen]

There's the 6x6 TH comp that bullies pekkas but not cc

[worldly tendon]

hmm

[pearl pollen]

You can also make a pretty compact TH+MT+GP comp

[worldly tendon]

yeah i saw that inspo

[pearl pollen]

The only problem that I find when building it

[worldly tendon]

should i max ll right after tesla?

[pearl pollen]

Is that the walls for moating is reduced hella

Nah

[worldly tendon]

yeah

oh

[pearl pollen]

I would say AB

[worldly tendon]

hmm

yeah i guess it depends on how common lalo hogs bbd becomes

[pearl pollen]

So you have to leave like 1 side of the base exposed with no moating

Yea

[worldly tendon]

does maxing LL even do anything

[pearl pollen]

Does damage

A thing you can do instead

Is upgrade LL to like lvl 5 because it looks exactly the same as lvl 1

So it looks weak but it's not that bad

[worldly tendon]

still doesnt stop that one stubborn guy from spamming random stuff

hmm

[worldly tendon]

max crushers to counter pekkas or double cannons?

[pearl pollen]

Lol I haven't done that yet

I'm not finding pekkas an issue right now

[worldly tendon]

lol im pretty sure all i get hit with is pekkas

oh

i think ill start using that inspo comp

[pearl pollen]

K

trust me, walls go fast when moating

if it doesn't work, try the 6x6

[worldly tendon]

hmm

storage farm on open areas?

i feel like you can mess around with different hp buildings to make stuff path away

[pearl pollen]

Do people pekka from one specific side?

Yea

But also if someone keeps pekka from one side you can have push traps that chuck the pekkas to where you want them to be

Especially on the sides of the moats

[worldly tendon]

do push traps bounce pekkas at lv1?

[dreamy marten]

Nah don't max ab

[pearl pollen]

Pekka is a spring weight of 25

Push trap needs to be at least level 6 to spring pekka

[pearl pollen]

Why not

I get more air attacks against me than ground

But maybe that just depends on my base

[worldly tendon]

me and my lv1 springs

*push traps

[dry sonnet]

Coz you are noob at high trophy all use pekka air bomb is useless

[worldly tendon]

lalo hogs and bbd: am i a joke to you?

[dry sonnet]

No need to max it if u have decent lvl it works i seen most ground attacks

Max roaster instead

Ab doesn't affect baby drag lol only mega tesla counters it

[storm tulip]

Ur logic is stupid. Just max them all.

[dry sonnet]

Max ground dps first

[storm tulip]

No

Air is meta

You can't deny that

[dry sonnet]

What range?

[storm tulip]

4k+

[dry sonnet]

No i face full pekka

[storm tulip]

Pekkas are popular but I could beat them while my ground dps wasnt max

[dry sonnet]

Ok defend it with max air bomb

Bye lmao

[storm tulip]

Yep

Also pretty sure cow is 4600

Not sure if that changes anything

@pearl pollen have u pushed yet

[worldly tendon]

waiting for the day he reaches 5k for bbbpro

[pearl pollen]

4.9k

[storm tulip]

Ooop

Almost there

[pearl pollen]

I don't wanna build bases to show 'em

I don't have the time to work anymore lmao

It's just the season

Ight lemme push 100 trophies

[worldly tendon]

nah no pressure

[storm tulip]

Ehat

[pearl pollen]

Stoner you should become th11 pro

[worldly tendon]

yes

stoner go for th11

[storm tulip]

No no no

[worldly tendon]

then you can suffer daily

[pearl pollen]

I mean he's on it more than the th11 pros

[worldly tendon]

botw or motw again

[storm tulip]

What's funny is that I had that role for a whole month

[pearl pollen]

Lmfao

botm

[dreamy marten]

Get air bomb to lvl 8 max then do firecrackers

Only max firecrackers two shot minions

And only max archer towers three shot minions

I learned the hard way that they're important

Lvl 8 air bomb have that huge health jump from lvl 7, but lvl 9 isn't worth it

At least not until you're almost completely maxed

[pearl pollen]

Fax, firecrackers are op

Except I only have 'em at 7 lmao

[dreamy marten]

Just keep in mind all buildings gain an unusual amount of health going from lvl 7 to 8

And many of them went from being able to tank 1 maxed pekka hit to 2 at lvl 8

Specifically archer towers, cannons, MM, LL, and other buildings in the same health category

[worldly tendon]

2 > 7

[pearl pollen]

Lmao

[dreamy marten]

Suggestions on basebuilding/how to attack?

[storm tulip]

post this in master builder chat too

[dreamy marten]

Mk

[storm tulip]

u build this?

[dreamy marten]

Used a generic offset skeleton as a starting point, modified it and the rest I built

[storm tulip]

when im attacking one thing that tends to screw me up is when the drop ships bunch up

[dreamy marten]

Usually that happens either because of the guard post or large difference in health in adjacent buildings

[storm tulip]

i think u could use lower hp trash on the sides of some higher HP buildings could force dropships onto the high HP building

[dreamy marten]

Yes

[storm tulip]

yeah thats what i was thinkin

i think u could use some of those tricks on ur loonion entries

i notice u did it at 10 oc

and sorta did it at 5

[dreamy marten]

Yeah the clock tower is enough for 5 oc, besides I'm not worried about an air kq from that direction in general

[storm tulip]

@wary stump told me that the way they use dropships is by targeting AB.

[dreamy marten]

Trust me, I'm an air attacker, I'd know lol

[storm tulip]

...but they are too i thought...

and they were op at bbase

[dreamy marten]

I mean they weren't wrong

I just meant in this case in particular it wouldn't be too effective

[storm tulip]

oh

[dreamy marten]

I sort of want people to hit from there actually, I have some good trap placements there

[storm tulip]

oop

baiting attacks at bbase

[dreamy marten]

Can't show them for obvious reasons but

Yeah

[storm tulip]

do u build regular bases?

u kinda op at bbase ngl

[dreamy marten]

I'm a noobie at home base

[storm tulip]

hm

can't hurt to learn

[wary stump]

Nah you try to not target AB lol

Or I try at least

[dreamy marten]

Lol

[pearl pollen]

In my experience with dropship minion

It's not the AB placement that you look at

But rather the GP relative to the AB

[wary stump]

Gp?

[dreamy marten]

As well as mt and toaster

Guard post

[wary stump]

Ah

Do you want it in front or behind the BH

[pearl pollen]

Just make sure you are not engaging GP and AB at the same time

[wary stump]

Hmm

How many trophies are you on

Or what was your highest

[pearl pollen]

Me?

4.9k

[wary stump]

Ah

[dreamy marten]

What's yours kai

[wary stump]

57

5.7

[pearl pollen]

What's yours Nocturne

[dreamy marten]

5.5k

[pearl pollen]

It looks like I'm the noob here

Or its just because my base is low level

[wary stump]

I’ve been playing dropship since I can remember playing Builder base

And I always look at the AB

nothing else

[pearl pollen]

And what are the results?

[dreamy marten]

For a while after the release of bb I was using minions and bd

Dropship didn't exist back then lol

[wary stump]

I usually get around 62%

[pearl pollen]

I feel like ground attacks have more potential than air

But more potential to fail more

[wary stump]

Yeah

[dreamy marten]

I agree, but air is more consistent

...I think

[wary stump]

But I never bothered learning them

[pearl pollen]

Yea

I want to learn them but I gotta get them leveled up first lmao

[dreamy marten]

Lmao same

I tripled someone fully maxed once with gibarbcart and my barbs were lvl 14

[pearl pollen]

👀

[dreamy marten]

Don't think i can top that

[pearl pollen]

Dam

How did the base look like

[dreamy marten]

It was one of these rectangle bases

With a spiral ish opening

[pearl pollen]

Hmm interesting

I currently have lvl 14 barbs lmao

The only thing I do with them is bully lower BH's in FC's by 120 barbs

[storm tulip]

oh lmao hahaha idk how i messed that up

[wary stump]

No worries

[dreamy marten]

It all depends I guess

Sometimes you do want to eliminate the ab early if there is an easy path

But such basebuilding mistake isn't common higher up

@pearl pollen where do you get these statistics

[pearl pollen]

clash ninja

You have to manually input defenses and walls though

The only thing it can track on its own is heroes and lab

[dreamy marten]

Thanks

[fair stirrup]

hooves

I wanna role ):

Like one with color

[pearl pollen]

DM ModMail

[pearl pollen]

Why is the roaster and AB so isolated?

[fair kite]

^

[magic matrix]

^

[dreamy marten]

^

[cursive steeple]

can someone do a trophie farming th9 base plz ?

[magic matrix]

[sinful rock]

Just replace the bm altar by the mega tesla

[safe thicket]

A draw not usually happens these days

[pearl pollen]

All your strong air (roaster, MT, AB) will be only on one side of the BH, so vulnerable to air from the other side.

barbarians+bomber is decent

[worldly tendon]

and you can also storage farm to protect them from nw

[dawn agate]

Hey guys, im new to the server so I hope i dont break a rule

but does anyone have any solid builder-hall 9 bases they can give to me?

[primal notch]

I just copied n.1 in the world base and im just farming trophies

[dreamy marten]

Top global bases are often anti 3 stars, they aren't the best for low level bases

[pearl pollen]

If you are a bh9 in 3000+ range, look for anti 2 base

bh9 in 4000+ should probably use an anti 3 base because a good attacker will always get 2 stars

@dawn agate You can also browse #builder-base-links

[dreamy marten]

heh

imagine doing walls

[storm tulip]

Ima try my base soon

[dreamy marten]

what if we've been basebuilding all wrong and comp bases are the best

[fair kite]

Lol

Then they would get 3 starred

[pearl pollen]

The top 200 begs to differ

The 6x6 TH comp makes so that you can't just pekka it though

Forces a cannon cart or something

[worldly tendon]

the problem with comps is everything gets messed up from the 5 length walls 😔

[frigid hazel]

uwu

[dreamy marten]

Rate base pls

[pearl pollen]

Minion snipe BH then air from southwest

You don't engage the roaster+MT+AB until like 80%

Don't like the core lab

[dreamy marten]

Lmao

[storm tulip]

dang this man actually builds bbase

dressie would be proud

[dreamy marten]

Could someone that's bh9 do me a favour

[storm tulip]

such as...

[dreamy marten]

Nevermind

[storm tulip]

wym

i was down ot help

[dreamy marten]

It's the thought that counts

[pearl pollen]

[storm tulip]

....

sooo

u still wanna favor or wha

[pearl pollen]

Try to build BH outside

Luckily theres no 24 hour for BH builds

Maybe put a moat 2 away so they can't just archer it

then shove it in a corner with a firecracker and TAT covering it so they can't minion it

Then they have to invest one camp to get it

[fallen lagoon]

What is a good attack at bh9

[magic matrix]

Pekka-Glide aka Super Pekkas & Hog Gliders

[fallen lagoon]

Dont have them

Lmaooo

Got any others

[dreamy marten]

Minions dropships

Mass barbs if you feel so inclined

[worldly tendon]

*lalo

[pearl pollen]

drobee

[storm tulip]

drobe op

[sinful rock]

I keep getting 2 starred so

Just replace the bm altar by the mega tesla

[storm tulip]

well the bh does feel pretty free so

[magic matrix]

Seems like a completely trash bh8 base used by complete noobs, it has way too many major issues.

The roaster should be where the BM alter is, since it won't do much at it's current position, but if it was right at the middle it could literally roast troops from all sides of the base and make it twice as frightening.

Multi-mortar should be placed a little higher up so it has full range all around the base and can attack pretty any surrounding troop, whilst at it's current location it's very vulnerable to a straight up directional attack. Crushers are placed at a pretty useless spot where attackers might has well attack from the top, they won't even need to worry about it at all.

Builder Hall is too exposed, there is only 1 layer of wall protecting it, which is right close to it, a couple bombers + carts can easily clear off the builder base and nearly that entire top section of the base.

Giant cannon should be where guard post is, and the guard post should be a little closer between the crusher and roaster at the left side so it can draw troops to either endlessly roast them to death at the top or crush them to death at the bottom.

The tesla farm at the bottom of the base is far too preticable and any decent attackers to clear it off with no problem. You should be trying to seperate the Tesla's and place them somewhere at the edge of the base where opponents won't expect it.

TL;DR: Make or get a brand new base. That base is just completely garbage, it's not structured right the least bit nor does it have a single proper functionality that serves any good use to make the base anyhow defendable.

[obsidian topaz]

Yo is this a good base?

[pearl pollen]

Send

[pearl pollen]

[tropic star]

invisible bases are the best

[pearl pollen]

[frigid hazel]

no base = no stars

[pearl pollen]

Cancelling the no's on both sides, we are left with the simple equation: base = stars

[frigid hazel]

what

[teal dove]

yall i need a base

for BH 0 going to 1

[pearl pollen]

🤣

[dreamy marten]

You can't even remove obstacles in bh2

Gotta basebuild around trees

[pearl pollen]

Lmao

I do that at BH9

[dreamy marten]

Hey cow did you know that 3x3 obstacles have a 1x1 no deploy zone in the middle?

[pearl pollen]

You sure?

[dreamy marten]

Hold on

[pearl pollen]

So if you put the Big Grass Spawner in your base

Then it works

[dreamy marten]

Oh nvm I deleted that base

But yes

I used to have a base with a giant ass barb head inside

[pearl pollen]

Lmao

That's op then

[dreamy marten]

Only 1x1 though

[pearl pollen]

You can make it hard to funnel

[dreamy marten]

All sides must be adjacent to buildings

[pearl pollen]

Yeah

Oh

You can still have a big deadzone ig

[storm tulip]

That's op

[pearl pollen]

Only Builder Base though

[dreamy marten]

No

[pearl pollen]

Home base only has 2x2's right

[dreamy marten]

Big trees work too

In homebase

[pearl pollen]

They 3x3?

Never knew

[storm tulip]

U sure?

[dreamy marten]

Yes

[pearl pollen]

I just remove everything except exclusives

[storm tulip]

Pretty sure I've spawned on them b4

[pearl pollen]

I can test it with my alt

Later

24 hours

So if I surround a big tree with walls then nothing can spawn inside?

[dreamy marten]

Yes

A 5x5 comp

It's not THAT useful but idk maybe usable in very specific cases

Just keep the knowledge in mind

[storm tulip]

Has to be wrapped in walls?

[magic matrix]

hello guys

[dreamy marten]

Well like I said, only the center tile is blocked

Hi rad

[storm tulip]

Wym blocked

[pearl pollen]

Blocked as in no troop deployment

[storm tulip]

...

Oh

I gotchu

[obsidian topaz]

Yo is this base good?

[frigid hazel]

no

[worldly tendon]

1. roaster looks fairly exposed 2. rush to bh9

[obsidian topaz]

Yea his mortar is low level

[pearl pollen]

Well it's not his own base since he's attacking it

But yea, doesn't look like the best

[dreamy marten]

It's not that bad imo but it's been a while since I built bh7's

[storm tulip]

Lmaoo

Something tells me this ain't the chat for that

[pearl pollen]

👀

This is BBB = builder base building

[obsidian topaz]

Thx for the base link

[pearl pollen]

If it works, nice

[dreamy marten]

Looks solid

[solemn veldt]

The red ish walls r ugly

[wanton nexus]

lvl 6 ones

[pearl pollen]

The smooth stone walls are actually enough for lvl 18 bombers not to one shot

[dreamy marten]

Yeah, I strategically upgraded my walls and stopped at lvl 4

Can tank two shots from bombers, pekka

[pearl pollen]

Is that only lvl 4?

I have some smooth stone and some slightly red

Nah its lvl 5

[dreamy marten]

Oh right

[pearl pollen]

Honestly having low ass walls might be op

Half the walls are used for moats anyways

the bombers can't tank LL always or something

[dreamy marten]

And it's hilarious watching people miss-time their bm ability

They charged it up on walls only for it to enter the core too early with no ability and get shredded

[fresh walrus]

aint that basic?

[dreamy marten]

Where I am everyone has lvl 7 - max walls

They aren't used to seeing lvl 5

[fresh walrus]

XD ah that way

my enemies still use BH ability on lvl 5 walls

[dreamy marten]

because their bms are low level

[fresh walrus]

well why not 3 star route a base with bombers

Also

How do i modify this layout

[pearl pollen]

the AB and roatser are wayyy to far outside, they should be right next to the BH

[pearl pollen]

AB really far outside as well, that crusher is too exposed - archers will take it out

[heady stratus]

What's this on

[pearl pollen]

And the roaster is literally on the outside

why

[fresh walrus]

i tried that, if i keep roaster in, witch attacks dont happen that happen, im afraid of canon giant comp

[heady stratus]

I just got it lol

[pearl pollen]

Oh lol

[fresh walrus]

to force the opponent in a witch attack

see the big bomb at the corner

of the map

ppl get trolled there

[pearl pollen]

Not gonna work bud

[heady stratus]

Had no where else to put it so I put it there till I can be bothered making a new base honestly

Which I'm boutta do now

[pearl pollen]

Most people put BM or giants in front of witch

[pearl pollen]

👍

There are countless attack that you need roaster for

Bbd will reck since the AB is far

[fresh walrus]

i know , so if i put roaster on the inside box, the scraps (1 minion or canon cart) finishes the th off

like if i attack from bottom right

[pearl pollen]

Well you do you

Just my advice

[fresh walrus]

they will get an easy 2

[pearl pollen]

It'll be easier with that roaster lol

But up to you

[fresh walrus]

ill try that and send you the replay

[heady stratus]

What's the point of posting your base here if your just gonna pretty much ignore everything he says

[pearl pollen]

Lol

Anyways i gtg

[heady stratus]

Cya

[fresh walrus]

the point is, ive already tried what he is saying

illtry again and show it to him

[worldly tendon]

baiting nw is pretty useless

at most they just go from the other side and 3

or rush right into roaster

[pearl pollen]

If he doesn't want to take my advice, it's up to him

[fresh walrus]

bruh putting roaster and AB in the mid pitted me up with higher BH bases

XD

im on a roll

[pearl pollen]

Confirmation bias?

[fresh walrus]

nah, nah, cant send 3star clips by ppl with trp lvl higher than that of 12 right

[pearl pollen]

Don't like the corner hut

[storm tulip]

Me?

[pearl pollen]

Yea

[storm tulip]

Welp, I didnt make it lol, I'll note not to use one tho

[pearl pollen]

Lol

It's a simple fix nonetheless

Oh dang I forgot to test that 3x3 obstacle thing

[storm tulip]

U like the base otherwise?

Anything I can learn from it?

[pearl pollen]

Looks okay

The LL is possibly tankable

[worldly tendon]

hey cow have you ever tried baiting pekkas or something like that?

[pearl pollen]

Kinda

But never ends how you want it

Like I tried making an open and easily accessible hole but theres two crushers 2 double cannons there

And I get air attacked so ...

[worldly tendon]

oh

i was thinking death damage stops any double crusher setup

[pearl pollen]

Yea it's annoying

I didn't have them right next to each other

[worldly tendon]

yeah

[pearl pollen]

But its still annoying

One pekka suicides and gives the other ones free access

[worldly tendon]

unless you try to use 3 push traps to take them all out?

but yeah they can surgically deploy them

or just hit the rest of the base

[pearl pollen]

Yea 😦

[worldly tendon]

i should also upgrade my walls

[pearl pollen]

Lmao

Upgrade to lvl 5

[worldly tendon]

is 2 close enough?

[pearl pollen]

The thing is, I'm not a pro at pekkas because I don't use them because they're not max

LMao

But I'm getting them max rn

[worldly tendon]

pekkas are spam tho

[pearl pollen]

So hopefully I'll understand better the fallacies

[worldly tendon]

yeah

i would ask for a fc to test stuff but...

[pearl pollen]

It seems to be just pray they do well

[worldly tendon]

yeah

[pearl pollen]

Yea I'm the only BH9 in my clan I think

Lmao

My "fc's" are just normal attacks

[worldly tendon]

that works as well lol

good thing is you can test stuff immediately

[pearl pollen]

Yea

Ya know what

Imma test that 3x3 obstacle thing right now

[worldly tendon]

go for it

make sure to put it inside the base

[pearl pollen]

Alt account i can test

So FC myself

[worldly tendon]

interesting

[pearl pollen]

Lmao I dual wield devices

[worldly tendon]

lol

[pearl pollen]

Oh dam

It's legit

This was my set up

Genuinely surprised

[dry eagle]

So I’m on bh6 and I’m trying to experiment with putting the builder hall outside the walls

Can someone help me work on this base

I have a 17 win streak with it so far

But I could make it better

[pearl pollen]

I would suggest keep playing until you break that win streak before you do some changes to the base

So that I'm not to blame

One big thing I'm seeing is the roaster and AB all at 12oclock, meaning that bbd or witches or something from 6 oclock may be dangerous

I'm not sure if anything actually will path to the internal crusher, maybe you can move it to the opening at 7oclock

Watch the replays and see if the crusher is actually doing anything

All walls are bomber-able, dangerous particularly for 12 oclock comp

Those springs should be used for giants - again watch replays to see common giant spots

[storm tulip]

channel base on builder hall?

:o

[dry eagle]

Yeah I love the look of it

And it works surprisingly well @storm tulip

@pearl pollen thanks for the recommendations I will make some edits, sadly I just lost due to witches from 6 o’clock...

Here are the edits I made

[storm tulip]

I'd put the crushers in the channels imo but I'm also not smart

[dry eagle]

I’m going to actually rotate the top crusher, the left cannon, and the bottom elixir storage counter clockwise

Then swap the top compartment archer tower and the army camp, and switch the tower to tall

It only works because nobody knows what to do against it cuz like, who puts their builder hall on the outside???

[pearl pollen]

Lol

The only other time I've seen it was in a reallllly old bh5 tournament

It was like Itzu vs. Chief Pat or something

[fresh walrus]

not really, im not much of a pro, but id let a stray canon cart loose on the BH and continue with my main attack

[dry eagle]

but it works i have a 75% win/loss

[fresh walrus]

what trophies are you on?

well if youve never been 3 starred on that base ill be more than happy to adopt it

[fresh walrus]

Also, trolled again

[storm tulip]

Feels good man

[fresh walrus]

This went for a three @pearl pollen

[young marlin]

I have both 1 gold and 1 elixir rune

Should I wait until bh9 with max storages to use them?

Im bh6 upgrading to bh7 right now

[fresh walrus]

you can always get runes from clan games later

[primal notch]

Weit if you do grass art can you get banned?

Tall grass in a pattern

Cause i kno that it used to be like that

[pearl pollen]

No, it's only profane grass art I. think

[pearl pollen]

Save it until you get a new one - then use that and collect the new one to save again

[pearl pollen]

Yea, if you are gonna have comps, try to close them

Builder base should be as compact as possible

[dreamy marten]

[pearl pollen]

Although I would have to invest a shovel to move my Grass Spawner

I already just chucked it in the corner so I have more free space to build

It works as a pretty good deadzone

[dreamy marten]

Lol don't you have two grass spawners

[pearl pollen]

I can buy another one

Can you move the other one as much as you want?

[dreamy marten]

Yee

[pearl pollen]

Actually?

Ight i can do that then

[dreamy marten]

Yee

[pearl pollen]

It's only like 500 or something

[dreamy marten]

Also you can have a maximum of 2 groves on your base

[pearl pollen]

Yea but you can't buy those 😦

[dreamy marten]

So 4 deadzones

Max

Lots of shovel for basebuilding tho

[pearl pollen]

I'll give some 3x3 obstacle inspo

[worldly tendon]

👀

[pearl pollen]

Lemme buy this thing first

[dreamy marten]

Nice having two heads on your base

[pearl pollen]

It's only 250

I bought it

[dreamy marten]

Epic

[pearl pollen]

Lemme screenshot my ideas

That's the equivalent of

Without the hole, idk pekkas might rather walk or something

[frigid hazel]

and then theres the bm

[dreamy marten]

Also just a note the heads have a kind of fat collision box so you can use them to cover dzs as well as guide troops around them into traps

[pearl pollen]

I've never seen troop interactions with it

[dreamy marten]

Hm ok

[pearl pollen]

No I meant you might be right

But I've never actually seen troops placed near it

So I wouldn't know

[dreamy marten]

This for example

Black could be a pekka, white a cannon cart

That's what I mean

Troops can't walk right through the head

[pearl pollen]

Ooooh that's cool

what if you put two heads right next to each other and make a huge deadzone

not deadzone but like a no-walk-zone

[worldly tendon]

cant troops squeeze through the middle tho?

[pearl pollen]

Oh fax

[worldly tendon]

unless you put buildings on the sides so nothing wants to walk through?

or a wall right next to the statues on the long side so troops will naturally go to the sides

[pearl pollen]

You need an extra wall? The Grass Spawners got you covered

[dry eagle]

i have been 3 starred but not often, and im growing in trophies upwars up 2400

i quoted the wrong message lol

@fresh walrus

[fresh walrus]

Yeah im. Talking that your base will be rendered ineffective cos you start getting higher bh lvls once you cross 2450

I cant push beyond 2550 because my base cant handle 5 different camps

[bitter hound]

Bh8

[pearl pollen]

The bh6 to bh7 difference is big

@gilded vigil is a fellow bh6 pusher

[pearl pollen]

Rush to bh9 for otto (if you are th10 or above)

Also, don't have push traps pointing towards crushers at bh8 anymore

Because pekkas that take the push trap will destroy the crusher and open it up for the big group

The base is also very open - pekkas walk through

I suggest try making a one comp base

[storm tulip]

I'm almost scared to ask

[dreamy marten]

A few bh9 ladder bases still have pushers into crushers, but I think that's for very high up when you start seeing gibart

[plain forum]

Anyone have a layout for 5.3+

[storm tulip]

bro apply for master builder

master builder chat is dead as shit

u get a useless role color too

[plain forum]

[dreamy marten]

Ee e e e

[dreamy marten]

Should I build a base

[storm tulip]

yes

[pearl pollen]

Why ask

[gilded vigil]

Who pingeth

Yeah I quit lol

[dreamy marten]

Idk if im good enough to, don't want to bother wasting my time making a base only to scrap it

I guess I'm already familiar with building placements

Just gotta make a good skeleton

How hard can it be

Don't quote me pls

[dense ridge]

the 5x walls make things very interesting

[gilded vigil]

^

[lyric sedge]

Where are my archer

🤨😂

[wise tree]

ago

i just upgraded to bh6 like an hour aho

are there any good bases for lvl 6

[pearl pollen]

Left to go to the Builder Base

One of my bh9 builds a long time ago was like a 6 comp base

It was meh

[dreamy marten]

I remember way back when builder base was new I built a bh6 which now from what I remember of it I used a lot of basebuilding techniques that I didn't consciously learn of until recently

The base was symmetrical but holds really well

[pearl pollen]

I never built my own base

Until recently

[storm tulip]

me neither

not at bh9 anyway

[pearl pollen]

Googling "bh_ base links" was all I did

Until recently

[storm tulip]

yeah i havent even tried building yet

i just recently decided it was worth a shot

[pearl pollen]

All base-buildings look the same ngl

Stale

[spring shard]

Can someone give me a really good war base th11 and a regular home base th11

[storm tulip]

wrong chat

[worldly tendon]

yeah wait for a few years for bh11

ive been seeing a lot of max7s pushing for some reason

[pearl pollen]

Lol

Bh3, 5, 7 are the best to push

[worldly tendon]

lava launcher is the best defence at lower bhs

[dreamy marten]

How high do you think one can get with bh3

Asking for a friend

[storm tulip]

Idea

win trade ur way up with an alt

[pearl pollen]

against tos?

[storm tulip]

probably

[pearl pollen]

No way your getting over 1.5k

[storm tulip]

Honestly tho there was a guy who pushed his th2 or 3 up to titans by win trading

[pearl pollen]

Dam

Does matchmaking not put them against BH9's?

[storm tulip]

Well someone was saying they were getting clouds when they pushed their mini

[pearl pollen]

Hmm maybe matchmaking is weighted

Like 75% trophies 25% BH

[storm tulip]

I mean ik that home base ladder is weighted

[pearl pollen]

Builder base at first glance is solely trophy-based

[nocturne wadi]

Home base matches th level +-2, while builder hall is purely trophies

[storm tulip]

Right that's what I thought too

[storm tulip]

But than I think nocturn said this

[dreamy marten]

Yeah I always thought bb matchmaking is purely trophybased but that just got me second guessing

[nocturne wadi]

https://www.reddit.com/r/ClashOfClans/comments/6dzvh3/news_we_are_the_clash_of_clans_team_ask_us/di6kq1c/?sh=c5daf29b&st=J3AAN227

I guess the "additional protections" kicked in

[storm tulip]

huh

interesting

[pearl pollen]

In my opinion, it should be solely trophies

[smoky narwhal]

Hey guys

[dreamy marten]

Hello

[foggy river]

what lvl is multi mortar supposed to be to upgeade home base mortar?

[pearl pollen]

@foggy river lvl 8 I believe

[foggy river]

thats for home base, I am talking about builder one

[pearl pollen]

Level 8 for both @foggy river

That's what the wiki says

[foggy river]

gee thats a very high lvl then

[pearl pollen]

Rush to BH9?

[magic matrix]

yes

[magic matrix]

How can I make a base in Bh?

Like what elements should I implement if I am building a base

?

I m being attacked by a lot of night witch spammers n the giants n the cc combination

Help?

[dreamy marten]

@magic matrix have you started building one?

[magic matrix]

Ya

I build one with a ring base theme to it

Not very good tho

[dreamy marten]

Alright that's fine can you show me how it is?

[magic matrix]

K wait a sec then

[dreamy marten]

Okay first of all ring bases doesn't really work in builder base

That th comp doesn't do anything against cc, giant or nw

[magic matrix]

Okay, so what should I do?

[dreamy marten]

Remove the center walls and use them elsewhere

[magic matrix]

Like to bait wall bombers or summat?

[dreamy marten]

Tesla is better off inside the base than in a corner, fairly good against bats and just extra dps in general

Sure

As long as they're not taking up space in the middle

[magic matrix]

K, n?

[dreamy marten]

Keep the guard post closer to the center

And tesla also, to defend against nw

Push traps directly onto your crusher

Spring traps touching the inner layer of walls, cannon carts often travel along walls

[magic matrix]

Is it much better now?

[dreamy marten]

Uh, I think these push traps are a bit too far, the upper left one is good, you can have another where the bomb in front of the firecracker is

[pearl pollen]

What you can do is make a small hole near the crusher by moving the wall one tile southeast

So giants will path towards it

[dreamy marten]

Oh right

[pearl pollen]

Then have springs there

[dreamy marten]

How did i forget

Yes

[magic matrix]

K, ima quickly tweak the base brb

[dreamy marten]

Also southeast gold mine and wall are a lil too far off the base try packing them closer

The tighter the base the harder it is to sweep it with nw

Any troops, really

[pearl pollen]

A lot of tweaks come from watching the attacks back on your base

[dreamy marten]

^

Swap tesla with guard post

[magic matrix]

The end result

So I just continue on from here? Making all sorts of little changes to the base by watching them replays n everything?

[pearl pollen]

Yup

[magic matrix]

Wut about giant bomb n small bomb placements?

[pearl pollen]

Oh by the crusher hole I meant something slightly diff

But I think that works too

Giant bomb looking for night witch side or cannon carts

Small mines some air to clear bats, ground against barbarians

[magic matrix]

Which is the crusher side?

I meant the giant bomb placement for the nw n the giants

[pearl pollen]

You would have to watch replays to see which side ppl attack from

Also

Shove the base into the top corner to bait nw from 6oclcok

[magic matrix]

K, I never thought of that

Thank u both for Ur time !

[pearl pollen]

Good luck!

[dreamy marten]

@magic matrix try these changes

White is moving walls

And dark gray is for buildings

Actually my bad on the southeast wall move it to the right of the piece of wall in front of the collector instead of left

We want the nightwitches to walk into these push traps

[magic matrix]

Okayy

Idk why but this little spring trap doesn't seem to spring troops...

[pearl pollen]

It depends which troops

[magic matrix]

Well it can spring giants right?

[pearl pollen]

Yup

Is it too low level?

[magic matrix]

Tis level 2

[pearl pollen]

Giants should be springed

and barbarians, cannon carts, night witches

Talking about springs,

Red is spring, yellow is tesla

These two hogs literally walk over it, its so broken

I posted this before, but since, I moved the air bombs but they still path hella weird

[worldly tendon]

still waiting for bbbpro

[pearl pollen]

not at 5k yet

[worldly tendon]

just zap lalo ez

[pearl pollen]

i got options

air

[timid fern]

I keep trying to get t 3k trophies for the gems, but I just keep getting shoved back down

Help?

[nocturne wadi]

rush to bh9 unless you have your reasons to try pushing trophies with a lower level account. BH matchmaking doesn't care for your BH level so it's quite impossible to reach 3k with a bh5

[pearl pollen]

3k is only realistic at bh7

[nocturne wadi]

even at bh7 I wouldn't be so sure, with clan games approaching and bh9's dropping trophies for easy wins

[magic matrix]

Can anyone give me any th9 upgrade priority guide?

[pearl pollen]

True, and most rushers sit at 3k anyway

[pearl pollen]

MT, cc, BM for otto

[magic matrix]

Mt and bm meaning?

[pearl pollen]

Mega tesla and battle machine

CC is cannon cart

Make sure to get all the buildings first, like Lava Launcher

[ruby kernel]

any advice helps, I have a level 4 mega Tesla and level 2 battle machine. I’ve already maxed the cannon cart and all upgrades on home bases.

Is it worth investing my elixir to upgrade giants to help raiding or save it strictly for the battle machine?

[storm tulip]

Pekkas unlocked?

What level are giants

[dry socket]

Here is my bh6 base

Its lit

https://link.clashofclans.com/en?action=OpenLayout&id=TH6%3ABB%3AAAAAHAAAAAHC4Ky3_iX6WTSZHkYX2hyy

[storm tulip]

Bruh

[dry socket]

WRONG CAHNNEL

Sorry

[storm tulip]

Wait

Hol up

[dry socket]

?

[storm tulip]

Before u post it there, get a screenshot

[dry socket]

Ok

[storm tulip]

Smh nobody ever shows the base

There ya go

[dry socket]

I did it

[ruby kernel]

Haven’t unlocked pekkas and giants are level 10

[storm tulip]

Hm

[ruby kernel]

Only been using cannot cart, giants , and WBs for attacks lol

[storm tulip]

I'd say giants

[ruby kernel]

Should I tho, or save the elixir for the battle machine? I only want the 6th builder basically

[storm tulip]

Wiait

No

Get lv5 bm at least

I mean carts alone dont work great...

Idk

@pearl pollen has better ideas

[ruby kernel]

I’ve been around 2700 k trophies

just trying to be the most efficient (:

Thank you

[pearl pollen]

Honestly just getting cc maxed out and spamming them works pretty well

@ruby kernel What level are your giants?

First, definitely get BM to 5

Then, get giants to 16 (so you have 4 per camp)

Then focus all out on BM

Giants + max cc should get you to 3k at least, you'll probably sit around there depending on base levels. Try to have your BM down at all times until you get to around lvl 20 it'll get a bit expensive then

[ruby kernel]

They’re level 10

But all that sounds like a plan! Just needed some guidance

[pearl pollen]

Good luck!

[dreamy marten]

Yeah lvl 5 bm is definitely a major goal

[storm tulip]

yeah as if regular BM was useless, just imagine him without ability

[worldly tendon]

bm always dies right before ability is up 😔

[pearl pollen]

BM has auto-ability upon KO

They should just put auto-ability upon ability

[storm tulip]

No

[pearl pollen]

And like you can turn it on/off mid-battle or something bc sometimes i get lazy and just chuck my phone away

[storm tulip]

I'm not tryna waste it on a 1 hp wall

[pearl pollen]

Lmao

[storm tulip]

I just spam it like the good ol days

[pearl pollen]

Option to turn off mid-battle

Lmao that's what I do when I'm sweating
