It depends heavily on deployment, however due to the positioning of storages, they could get one gold before meeting the giant bombs. Not to say that they couldnt get more, but it would have to be deployed perfectly.
Wall breakers can always undo labyrith style bases, if the attacker has some skill, so I'd guess your elaborate pathing could be unpicked by someone who who wants to brute-force their way to the core.
heh, this has been a major weakness of some labyrinths, but this one is practicly WB proof. Check out pics in the op, they attack it like old AI on spikes.
I'd be interested in how it performs when a bunch of goblins are thrown at it - as there are no walls, I'd be very tempted to sprinkle some in to test for traps etc, then throw the rest down with heal and/or rage and see how much of the core they can chew up.
[/B]This is a fair danger, but the heal wont help because lv 7 splash one shots lv 5 gobs, and ALL splash towers cover core, along with the teslas.[/B]
Against mass hogs, I'd guess they will easily get into your core and it's game over from there unless you have a strong CC that they didn't lure and kill.
yeah, hogs kill it, but hogs kill any non hogvault TH9...
Against an air attack, I'd think the core is easily taken for at least 50% of loot and all your DE, if the attacker attacks from the obvious side and knows the basics.
balloonion or drags? Drags, depending on deployment, will get anywhere from 1 gold to two gold+delix. For balloonion.... Depends on loon to minion ratio and bow orentation. If bows are down or loons clear core then yes, it'd be gettable. If bows up and loons dont clear core, then you're screwed.
You have given plenty of thought in terms of giant-healer, but do folks still use that farming vs TH9? I dunno really...
Yes, all the time. With the giant buff its the new de army...
But hey, it's a farming base, no doubt most attackers will not be overly smart and will throw a very simple army at it, with insufficient thought in terms of unravelling it.
I do like trick bases, they tend to discourage a lot of potential attackers, and attract a lot of noobs.
