How is my trophy hunting base? I don't care about recourses except dark elixir.

It's done pretty well in crystal 3
I was inspired by pingfaos base and decided to make a similar one with the king in the middle.

You need to work on your splash defense (mortars and wiz towers).

I know. I'm asking how the layout is.

In that case its alright.

Bad, it has poor mortar placement (bottom left side isn't covered efficiently) and poor defence placement. It would be very easy to lure out bk and cc then destroy that weak under levelled wizard tower bottom left and just go on to the town hall.

i don't like the gaps on the outer layer of walls.

That was my defense log. I have only been two starred once, as you can see from the witches.

So what? You come here asking for advice, and when people tell you, you go all defensive? I leave my town hall outside at TH8 (last week, now i'm TH9) and i rarely ever got more than 1 starred - because you need to accept that every base has ability to improve.

The point in question is that if you want to survive at Crystal, and play with the big boys, you need to have what it takes. Your mortars must be flanked by wizard towers to cover up the smaller SA that mortars cannot, and your air defence is pathetic. I'm at TH8 and all 3 of my AD are Level 6, so please do max out all before you even start to think of yourself being sustainable. And your resources keep you going, unless of course you gem. You are gonna have to protect them well, because good armies cost significantly. Your loot bons at the moment probably isn't going to help cover everything. And why is dark elixir important to you? At Level 2 DE Storage (I'm at Level 4, for my TH8 last week) and personally, it only affects me because i'm using it for Golems/Heroes upgrade and since you're doing neither, DE is useless for you.

Hidden Teslas play a huge part - mine hit 6 just right before i began my upgrade to TH9 and now they're in the midst of going up to 7 because that's how important they are. At your base, i would wipe it out easily with 8/9 dragons, 20 archers, and 2 witches. Plus 3 LS (5) + 1 RS (5). So if you are to truly survive anywhere, especially hunting cups, you need to improve ALL of your defences. Or you will suffer, not me, but you.

I think everyone who wants to make a thread about asking for advice need to read this.

Your defenses seem to be somewhat premature, about Town Hall 6 defenses. As for the layout, mortars could be more "triangularized", the west side of your base has less mortar protection.
