I'm DE hunting mann! DE on the side is too open and troops can walk through the 2x2 funneling gap into the core. Me don't want my 2.5k DE offered stolen:(:p

There were no heroes in that vid and it would be totally different if the cc was wizards instead if a strange combo of archers and minions.
Still, just solely about base building, this what I meant by extreme end of antihog. Imagine the ultimate extreme situation where the hog ring is as big as the whole map. Yep hogs will run and run and run and the CC, it's surely too, impossible to lure. But what really happening there is, each defense is so far away from one another that they don't protect each other at all. This base is a miniature problem of that ultimate situation.
From that vid though, I think you can try setting xbows to ground. Since you already have air defenses and teslas in the core, setting xbows to ground solves the coverage problem to such a large TH9 base, you see for the whole duration of his king and troops vs your cc troops, there's only one xbow solo actively shooting at things, that really need to be solved.
IMO, the magic distance between defense layer and buffer layer should just be a little bit more than the defense-defense distance. You need your defenses close enough to help each other and close enough to the core so they actually help when the enemy is in the core not after they breach the core. When playing with such dangerous distances though, fine tuning is needed. Low health defenses needs to be placed one more square away from the magic distance because it will be destroyed by the first few approaching hogs and the hogs that didnt reach that defense before it was destroyed will find another target halfway, which is the core. Higher health defenses can be placed right on the magic distance because they can sustain long enough to make sure all hogs are gathered.
In fact the highest health outer ring defense, which is the air defense, should be the one next to a double giant bomb so that all hogs are gathered together, which I see you have done in your base, which is sexy. :)
I just saw your base almost completely destroyed...:rolleyes:
great base testing it atm... all bases are bad against gowipe and gowiwi especially anti hog you know how to counter that? if so it would be the perfect base :D
what do you use to farm with as well having trouble finding loot lol
death
Switched xbows to ground only, I have the strange feeling that I'm going to get wrecked by Balloonions soon tho :(
About the "magic distance", i didnt understand much to be honest, but i did understand that ADs are placed correctly, so cheers to me. As a matter of fact, in the CW i'm in atm ive been attack twice by hogs, both wins, and both exactly the same: all hogs deployed at the bottom AD, setting off the first bomb, and then moving to the wiz tower, setting off the second one. One would say people learn from mistakes... Clans don't :P
Shh, don't let people know :rolleyes:
No kidding tho, it was a one of a kind attack, I can guarantee that wont happen anytime soon to anyone using this base. Especially if they use the farming version when on gold... The idea is for mortars to be in the center to prevent defenses like that one.
I like your base.... good job
But No CC is Unlureable.... its just making it hard.... Your CC can be lure with a group of giants and wbs ...
