How it holds up against each attack
Where it fails
- Core trap laneServiceabletraps sit on one path; a second path avoids themAttacker will: enter from 2 o'clock
- Outer storagesServiceablestorages on the outer ring are reachable from the edgeAttacker will: snipe them with a small group first
- Clan Castle pullServiceablethe Clan Castle sits where a few troops can lure it outAttacker will: pull the defenders and kill them away from the core

How the base works
- 1The attacker sees spread compartments and a deep Town Hall.
- 2Expected path: a funnel from 2 or 4 o'clock toward the core.
- 3Defensive value is spent on wall rings and the long back end.
- 4It can fail against Electro Dragon spam from 2 o'clock: spread air defenses are far apart on this line.
