not sure how you defend against that to be honest with this setup.

I can't find your clan. you sure u spelled it right?

Edit: Also did they get your TH or only DE?

Hi Mavios! I just switched to your design after spending some time with Richard's "Loaded Die" design. I was able to reach Master III a couple months ago with it and am excited to try your design for our push starting next week. Thanks for taking the time to make threads like these for those of us who don't have the time to work out all of the kinks of our own designs!

Did they use wb?

I think the problem is you do not have an opening in exterior mid walls. if attacker spawn wbs in the center of any side they will break through walls going directly to the core. With the opening in the middle and spawn forced to be pushed back by outside buildings, wb will go to the side junctions when spammed in the middle.

Also your layout is modified a bit. you have two gold storages very close to each other hence you lose two gold storages easily. Your tesla placement is different to mine, teslas are meant to protect the junctions leading to the core. where you have them should be replaced with xbows.

Not sure if the upgrading AD have anything to do with the balloon attack loss too

The last thing is what levels are your teslas?

Thanks for your time mavios.

teslas are in the core, 2 are upgrading and are placed outside for distractions.
since they are upgrading i shifted the TH and placed the CC in the middle for harder luring.
they actually never lure the CC but break through the middle quickly, no the side with the AD upgrading hadn't been attacked yet, lol.
indeed they used WB and when I had the openings like you i actually lost more battles so i modified it to curb losses.
most attacks are with 20 + giants and 2 healers lvl 4 along with AQ and BK and tons of archers and wizards along with about 10-12 WB. 2 rage spells and a healing spell and they are quickly inside to the core, the giants do circle around but the other troops follow BK and AQ inside
all teslas are lvl 5 and are being upgraded which makes the core weak in my eyes. Only 2 teslas in the middle when there should be 4 max upgraded ones.

i get attacked from either the right bottom or left bottom side of the base. Mostly to the right where the base is pressed against the outer ring of the land.
not sure if you can give me any help at this time.

Yeah, having two teslas only will definitely weaken the core a lot.

I suggest you play with TH outside till your telsas are done. this will still work for farming and cup hunt since u losing cups anyway but will limit your resources loss

mavios,

thank you you again for the input. I actually changed the gold storage around and 1 mortar.
And i agree with you that the teslas upgrading kinda defeats the idea of your setup since thats the last defense and should be intact to work properly. In a few weeks it will all be upgraded and I'm going to make my push, perhaps i designed this base a little premature.

still haven't lost a hog attack which was a big concern as i keep getting revenged by them.
thanks again for your time and valuable input.

have a great day good sir!

Would version 2.0 work with lvl 1 big bombs or should I try version 1.0? I am trying to defend against hogs.

I'm using this with 1 tesla in the core, lol
