Defending against max giants

[Snarg]

I think u r struggling bcz of ur walls .. Lvl 7 walls is not good enough at TH 9 .. many of my clan mates are struggling d same way bcz they didnt max walls at TH8 .. TH9 loot is not as good as TH8, so it will be a slow progress. better get those walls up and u will see it will work like wonder

I'm curious, do you pay by the letter when you type?

Well, I had a TH10 with mainly level 7 walls. The thing is if you have max defenses (for TH9) you're fine. The
OP has level 1 xbows, level 3 teslas (correct me if I am wrong), and level 10 point defenses. Those defenses make the OP fresh meat.

@Snarg: Unnecessarily rude...

You can easily deal with level 6 giants.

First, ditch the hog ring. Do you get hogged a lot at g2? Centralize your heroes. Now that heroes are unlurable the king and queen will slice through giants and hogs. You don't want them in the outer layer where they can easily be killed.

Rearrange your base so that you have more compartments. Also have a core, middle layer and outer layer of walls. Make sure your ads and wts are in the middle layer behind your point defenses. Giant/healer won't work if they can't easily get to your ads and knock them out.

Your teslas are too low. At level 3 they aren't that great. For now use them in the outer layer to kill wall breakers. This should work. Hope it helps.

There is no way... You can ask those th9 beast, every th8 is easy prey for maxed giants.

You can't defend but you always can join them.
Upgrade to th9
Get those strong giants
Destroy every th8

That's hilariously sad.

At this point, I'm more concerned with a base layout that foxes giants. Why? Because I can't upgrade my stuff all at once, but I can certainly make a new base.

So true and also so sad. :/

Still, if I am willing to use 4 healing spells there isn't much you can do if I can lure your castle troops first.


The best deterrent I found is making it hard to lure the castle troops, diffusive outer buildings to make it hard to focus attacks and reinforcement waves, and spreading the storages out to make 100% gains difficult and expensive prospects. 25-50% losses are to be expected, but the savvy players tend to pass me by more often than not because they can find cheaper bases to attack with more assured gains and less spell/hero usage, the very things I try to avoid in my attacks.


Sometimes there's a guy with war troops that he didn't need to use, and instead is looking for a juicy base to raid, but there's nothing you can do in that case. Play the odds and make your base "expensive" to attack and you should have better than average results.

In general I always try to have a dead center CC. It's why I'm not too keen on my current base design.
As for CC fills, I know 1 witch and a few wiz can easily tear down most raids - the issue is that sometimes my CC is empty (used/killed previously) and he snags me between refills. So I'm mostly looking for a good base setup that doesn't solely rely on the CC to kill giants.

Walls would definitely help, but not particularly with my current base.

I have tried a conventional base before, but I ran into the problem where the giants just charged the core using heal spells and lots of WB/jump spells. Perhaps I could see an example of your base?
