Does a centered barbarian king work like centered CC? And what's the difference between guard and sleep for bk?
And if your bk defends, does it still take time to rest?

well depend what style you play! if farming then better dont place bk/ queen at center if hunter mods then better use BK/queen at center for defense!cheers TNTQuote:

When set to defend, heroes defend your village. When set to sleep, they don't.
If he is injured defending your village, yes.
So centering bk isn't that useful unless someone happens to attack with giants. So should I still set my bk to defend my village if I'm farming? I just got it so I don't know if its better to keep it ready to attack or if it helps for defending
I've found that if your opponent is unable to 'activate' your heroes pre-attack, it gives an edge towards the defending village. The last thing you want is for your units to all have to focus on a defending hero right as they're almost to the Town Hall while getting pounded on by all sorts of defensive structures.
May be different for farming mode...
I've had a centered bk for a while now and I don't see much of an advantage. He is just too weak to really do anything at lvl1.
However, being centered does slow him down a little as he has to jump over walls.
I just got attacked an hour ago, and I had my bk set to guard, but when I replayed it, my bk wasnt there defending, I'm sure he wasn't resting since I was sleeping and my last attack was hours ago. Unless I'm missing something, the button means the mode he's in right now? Or to switch to that?
Most likely you were attacked more than once and replayed the later attack first after he was damaged.Quote:

If he is laying down And zzzz's are coming from his head then he is in sleep mode, if he is up and walking around then he is in guard mode. It's that simple.Quote:
