deceptive base for th8

[foey]

Hi,
My objective here is for trophy pushing, since i can't online often like most people, so i think im gona generate most of my trophies from defending
I've seen tons of great base designs for th8 in this forum.. But :
1. If my base looks too good/strong, only high lvl players will attack my base, and its almost guaranteed a massive lost of resources or trophies
2. the 'deceptive' factor in those bases are just some easily predictable funneling systems, so only few people will be fooled by those base designs, even for those who never saw the design can easily predict the spring traps and just skip my village

My question : Are there any good deceptive base design for th8 here?

The goal of the base is to try to look as easy as possible, so people of lower TH lv will try to snack on your village, only to find out that the base isn't as easy as they though


I was thinking to up my resource collectors high enough, to bait some lower th players to pick on my base

Btw, im trying to reach crystal 3

When reaching C3 at town hall 8, the base won't matter much, although if you were to use an actual design (rather than this), then I would use just any trophy base. Maybe the tempest?

I disagree with not being able to win defences. With the receptionist(the base linked in my sig) I have won defences against full on attacks from level 100+ players. I strongly recomend it.

Truth is, I think that a well-prepared TH9 and 10 can crush any TH8 base, no matter what base layout it has or how maxed out it is. Although, a good looking base might scare away most people, and some people might actually fail againts you.

The resepcionist design looks good. But :
1. Of coure if they attack from lower right or left, they are doomed. But, if they attack from upper right or left, there are nearly no traps at all
2. Why are all of the storages nearly exposed, a horde of barb/archers can easily take those resources away, dont you think? I still need resources to keep my builders busy...

Getting crushed by higher lv TH is inevitable. But i want to lure lower lv players to attack my base, collect as many trophies as possible before eventually getting crushed by higher TH

Has anyone tried not collecting their resource collectors, and people just snipe your collectors and leave your village unharmed netting you an easy 18-30 trophies?

Try the nexus core, when I was using it, a lot of people just chucked a bunch of troops on the bottom and tried to steal some elixir (which I had no use for) and just surrendered, think I won about 85 trophies or something in a night at crystal 3, but past that pretty much every attack is gonna smash

Well I'm using the receptionist now and it's not that easy to actually get the resources...the most I have ever had taken was 80k and that's nothing...and most people attack from the upper left and right and get busted harder then they do when they come from the bottom...

Wow, yeah. That looks perfect, even i am tempted by those exposed storages
Though i am gona use the design later when i no longer need the elixir (when the elixir is only used mainly for researching)
But, why do you expose the gold storage as well? 1 i can understand, but 2 or 3 gold storages exposed? You can have too much elixir but you can't have too much gold as long as you have walls. I might wana switch those gold storages with some of my high lvl collectors, putting the gold storages inside, and dark barracks outside (i dont understand the purpose of putting the dark barrracks inside the wall?)

Hey Foey, just like to let you know, for all my bases, you can feel free to swap it to whatever you like!

I rarely have gold nowadays due to farming skull walls and no need for elixir, so I just ditch it all outside :P

Look through some of the bases I made, there are quite some good bases in them, if you have very specific ideas, you can request one and Ill be on it
