Two Questions about Base Building from a TH8 scrub

Question 1: Are symmetrical bases inherently bad?

Question 2: Is it possible to make a base with an unlureable Clan Castle at TH8 without the base being so spread out that it is ineffective?


Thanks for your help!!!

To your first question, the issue with symmetrical bases is that it is usually easier to plan an attack against them, whereas asymmetrical bases are just less predictable. As for the second, it is possible, I've seen a few decent ones on this forum in the last couple days. Your compartments tend to be bigger, but that actually helps you make multiple potential double big bomb trap locations.

Ok cool, thanks for your help!
