Troll Thread: Find weaknesses in my TH 7 defense

Firstly, how is this a troll thread, and not to be rude or anything but this isn't one of the best layouts for TH7 out there.
1) Grouped collectors can be easily cleared by goblins, quickly evading mortars slow splash damage and clearing out collectors with nothing to stop them.
2) Use of X-junctions, improper junctions and double walls puts you at a disadvantage against WB, especially the X-junction as troops can travel four different ways without needing to break more compartments open.
3) Exposed AD means you are open to giant-healer attacks
4) Put your TH outside to maximize a chance of a shield and prevent the chance of TH8s and late TH7s from taking all your loot.
5) Exposed bottom mortar.
6) Spring trap funnels not used effectively- archers can take out the point defenses before sending giants which they would not path the same way
7) Each of the gold and elixir storages can be easily reached and BARCHed.

Anyway, that's my 2 cents.

Play around with it a bit. I'd try to centralize your splash to the inner core more so they remain well protected while pummeling troops while your point defenses go to work. Mortars could be better placed in a triangular fashion to cover your base better I think.

It's tough to have a perfect base as a TH7 as you just don't have enough walls/space. Centralizing BK, TH CC, splash, etc is great but since you can't do all you have to pick and choose what you want to prioritize.

AD's are important but you probably don't get attacked by air all too much.

..And at your TH, to be honest, I'd be more concerned about protecting against giant/healers rather than loons/minons.

Drags will 100% pretty much any TH7 regardless as you just don't have enough anti-air.

I hear you there. That's the idea of the game, though. There is no perfect setup, it's always "I need a better ___" Until you reach max level and those guys are crazy, I've seen them. Haha.

I'm taking all feedback into consideration and have already begun modifying accordingly. (I 'bought' a barb king although I couldn't afford it). I'm done for the night, but am curious what advice the night will have to offer.

The troll headline was meant to inspire those kinds of replies, thanks. Haha.

Exactly. I've seen plenty of max levels (our clan leader is 100% maxed including lvl 11 walls and lvl 40 heroes)...I'm getting there myself but still far from completely maxed lol. Plenty of Champs and high lvl play in our clan. At that stage It's all about fighting for 3-4 cups if you're lucky and sitting in the clouds for ages searching for a match hoping you'll maybe win a defense for cups every once in awhile. It's quite dreadful lol.

Anyway, seems like you're doing fine.

Good post by Doku above as well that I pretty much agree with (point wise).
