    Why expose your TH but surround it with Tesla?

    Can anyone help me here?

    When I'm farming, if I see a TH exposed I'll help a fellow farmer out by sniping his TH to give a shield. However, why do some people insist on surrounding it with Tesla!? Doesn't encourage sniping.

    In fact, when people do this I zap their DE and take as close to 39% of their loot as possible before clicking next.

    Is there a strategic reason for people doing this?

    There are two main groups of people who do this
    1) The trolls. They do it because they think it's funny to trap the TH
    2) People who genuinely believe that trapping the TH will cause the attacker to waste troops so that they have nothing left to do a main attack.

    When I'm raiding and I see an exposed TH, I'll drop a single archer near it. If it's not trapped then I'll drop a few more archers to finish it off and give them a shield. If it is trapped I say "oh well, he doesn't want a shield" and move on.

    Whether I send the rest of my army against the rest of their base depends entirely on how much loot they have and not whether the TH was trapped.

    BTW: I couldn't care less about trophies. If I get 99% of the loot but only 49% damage and forget to get the TH, that's a win for me.

    I always check with 1 barb or archer, then I drop my heroes if it's not trapped. If it is, I forget about the th and take their loot.

    two reason when i put my TH in corner and trap it tesla:
    1. just for fun to tease the attacker seeing them get mad
    2. easy way to collect defense win, though i don't really need it. 90% of my reason is just for fun and tease others

    The exposed TH attracts snipers for a cheap shield. The traps, bombs and HTs ensures that the sniper has to throw in enough troops (typically giants) that they can't effectively snipe your collectors and mines. If they give up, the trophy bonus for defending is nice.

    I do it to watch people cry about it here and waste their army on a few trophies. My loot is never touched by the forum warriors claiming to zap or take my money at 39%.

    For extra tears, I always revenge knowing you have to log off while your army builds and zap the de if it's worth it.
