i followed that guide to make my base but its impossible to defend against archers. I have been using 12 giants , 1 healer , 4 WB , Rest Barch but not much ppl use healers so i have to wait long time to get a healer from someone . Now what should i focus on ?? i will be getting th -6 in 24 hours any suggestion on army composition??

anyone help me out :(

Maybe just use barch + wb :) they are cheap and fast to train. Just max those and your camp and upgrade your town hall to th 6. In th 6, do the same. After you have upgraded those barch and wb and army camp and spell factory you are safe to go th7 :). You should go to th 7 ASAP because you will get a lot of things such as 1 more camp, BK, etc

In terms of troops just upgrade your archers, wbs, barbs and giants and use that at TH6 until you unlock healers. Then just basically add a healer or two to that mix and you have a troop composition.
