(Project w/tips) Let's create a TH8 base that will reach master!

[PhoenixFeather]

So many of us are currently TH8 but want that 5th builder so badly. That' sway we're trophy pushing to masters for the gems. Doing so, we get 100%ed almost all the time. However, If we work and test as a team we might be able to make a good occasional win base.

Some things O've thought of for the base.

• Staggered/T-Junctions
• Long funneling (similar to the "Tempest" another TH8 base.
• Anti WallBreaker - We'll need this so giants are still on the long run. LOL To do so we have wizard towers and teslas that range reaches to only where the WallBreakers break. This helps tip #2 work.
• Empty spaces after walls THEN buildings (So that giants aren't too close to WallBreakers. This helps Tip #3 work flawlessly.

Some other Ideas.

• Double walls with spaces in between - Makes archers not be able to shoot the TH, WallBreakers to think that there' nothing there, and troops to pretty much ignore the core unless it' she last thing they need for the 100%.
• Keeping Collectors full (Free loot)
• Securing a builder hut in the corner - people will use the builder hut and realize that teslas will kill their troops. Also, it might stop a 100%

Now who's in!

If you want the gem rewards from reaching Master, I don't really think your TH8 base would matter that much. Why?
1) Once you reached Crystal, it's hard to win a defense, so almost all of your trophies will come from your attacks.
2) Everytime you logout, TH9 and TH10 bases that you attacked will revenge you immediately, and you can be certain that it wiil be 3-star more often than 2-star.

Knowing this, I think the best you can do is to prevent a 3-star attack due to lack of time. I would try to distribute my structures strategically througout the whole map so that common attackers will not have enough time to 100%.

However, I'm still not sure how well a maxed def and walls TH8 base is in defending against TH9 and Th10 revenging armies. I did my pushing to Master when I was still TH7 and my base didn't really matter.

If you just want to reach Master, offense is enough.Your defense is for staying there.

And that' sway we're gonna change that Instead of 3 stars it will only be 1 at the most.

It doesn't really matter how a Th8 designs its base, a three star is guaranteed above 2400 unless the town hall is outside.
