I forget what a labyrinth base is?nCan you show me a picture?

[AminT]

Never heard of that, I guess I'm a noob.

Do you mean the kind of labyrinth used in tower defense in Warcraft 3?

1.) Because the traps are very obvious especially when taking bases from the Internet instead of building them yourself. If you have 1 day of time to look at a base you will not run into them especially if you have a spy in the other clan or have a replay from a previous attack. If you have 30 seconds it is more common that you make mistake.

2.) Labyrinth bases mean that you have less walls for the more important parts and have to make a area at the Center. This is perfect for sending in wizards and giving them healing + rage. This blows your base from the inside. For normal attacks this is not such a Problem because you cant to that with archers that get 1 shot from mortars.

3.) You will face hogs more often, so you will concentrate more on putting your giant bombs and spring traps inside.

4.) At clan wars the first priority is avoiding 3 stars and if possible 2. For normal attacks the priority is to defend your ressources. It does not matter if you get a 3rd star, if all your ressources are gone at 70%. Even 2 out of 3 Storages on one side should be avoided, so your first target is to not let the enemy get in at all.

They did . This is how the spring trap and bombs work. You can not do the full labyrinths (all wall like corn maze) due to the placement of resource and defense building .

Because the only troops that base would work against is farming armies.

[timmytheturtle2310]

because a lot of people use hogs and flying armies in war

Labyrinth bases are made to confuse attackers. With 24 hours to scout the base you aren't going to confuse very many people.
