This war base has proven very solid lately in war and is really effective against current meta attacking strategies (as well a base can be against the current defense vs offense meta, though). You have a nice perimeter for distraction and messing with funneling, the dead tunnel on the inside and trap compartments that work well against hybrid attacks as well.

This trophy base works really well for TH12 with the Eagle Artillery as a bait in the north that attackers need to attack into or they have to deal with the Eagle Artillery during the whole attack. This approach is really expensive with all the traps and, teslas and defenses there without any chance to dip in. From that spot out it will be hard to build a proper funnel into the Town Hall section and troops are likely to go left and right rather for the Town Hall so you will see many 1-Stars against this base or close 2-Stars (with a decent success rate of some failed attacks as well.

This war base did perform quite well recently for TH12 and has some nice surprises for the attacker, including a tesla row, Inferno Towers on one side of the base , the offset Eagle Artillery on the other side and a trap core that is just devastating. Several defenses and traps on the outside will make funneling harder and can catch the attacker off guard and putting all of this together creates a really strong Anti-3-Star base 🙂

This Town Hall 12 base here is not like a usual trap base where you have this insane amount of hidden teslas and traps at the section with the Town Hall, this one adds one more step by having those traps at the opposite side. This is working great because the attacker assumes the traps are at the Town Hall side and attack from the opposite side and full walk into the trap section. Inception of inception, if you want to see it that way. You will find enough attackers falling for this double-minded trap base that it will give you a nice defensive outcome.

Here’s a fresh war base for you that you can use in your next Clan War with several nice defensive features, including a nasty Tesla Farm around the Gold Storage in the bottom area, double-layer bulkhead walls on the outside compartments that work well against Super Wall Breaker (and regular Wall Breaker as well) and a really nice trap setup in the inside compartments around the defenses that will work great against the popular Hog/Miner Hybrid strategy that is really strong right now.

Here’s a nice Anti-2-Star base for Town Hall 12 that you can use to push trophies and get up into Legend League and what I really like is the tough spot it puts the attacker in with the Eagle Artillery protected by these annoying 3-layer walls from the bottom that makes funneling very hard and impossible to use one Jump Spell. On the other hand the attacker also doesn’t really want to attack into the Town Hall side first because this will not get him a 3-Star.

Most attacks will come from the bottom side and with all these additional traps there the attacker can buckle up for some nice surprises and not only a few failed here big time and barely got their 1-Star.

This war base here had some nice success in the recent CWL as a Anti-2-Star base. I know these kinds of bases look old and nobody falls for it, but just because you know what traps etc wait for you doesn’t mean you automatically can beat this base. It’s pretty tough to get towards the Eagle Artillery and you need to go full forces through the right side of the base and when you reach the Town Hall area there are so many defenses left that the attacker will be in trouble and there’s no way to clear that with a cheaper suicide squad.

I’ve seen many attempts that failed against this base and preventing any TH12 to beat this base will give you a nice boost in CWL. In Clan war this base also works but I rather recommend it for CWL because risking to protect the 2-Star rather than the 3-Star in Clan War works a lot better with this base. For sure a very solid layout for Town Hall 12.

This trophy base here (actually it’s rather a kind of hybrid base with the Dark Elixir Storage on the inside) is a mix of a traditional ring base with a ring around the core that has the Inferno Towers, Eagle Artillery, Air Sweepers and Clan Castle along with air traps.

The goal here is to force the attacker to actually use a really wide funnel to get into the base but also use that wide funnel to keep troops on the sides and have a last line of hard defenses before the core, which works pretty well and I also like the general trap setup here in this base that is really effective against many attackers.

This is a really great TH12 base to use in Clan war but also in CWL and this Tesla Farm here is really devastating and can break attacks quite frequently, no matter if that’s a Queen Charge or a hybrid of Hogs/Miners running into them and I’ve seen multiple attacks failing entirely because of that Tesla Farm

If you really want to prevent that 3-Star, this base is a great fit for you – make sure to use 3x Ice Golem in your CC as well – and you can also run it in CWL (but I think Clan War is better because a high percentage 2-Star there is helping more).

Here we have a great TH12 base for pushing trophies up to Legend League that will protect your base and also defends several 1-Star. The offset Town Hall here makes it practically impossible to not get 1-Star but the overall performance by saving you plenty of 2-Stars and 3-Stars is overall better than simply going for a base that will give you that one defensive victory every 20 or 30 attacks.

You have nice spaces here that prevents Electro Dragons from getting too much value and the amount of small compartments are working well against ground attacks of any kind. If the attacker wants the 3-Star, he has to attack through the opposite side of the Town Hall and will risk only getting 1-Star and that’s where this base works well.

I know that you need Dark Elixir at Town Hall 12 and farming that can be annoying – having a base that protects some of your Dark Elixir while away can be really helpful (just look at the past 10 defenses of your base and sum up the Dark Elixir you lost).

As you can see, the Dark Elixir Storage and the Town Hall are protected in the center with all kinds of traps and defenses around it to hopefully funnel the troops away from the core or take them down fast enough so you don’t lose that core – it doesn’t work 100% of the times but every time it works you will save some Dark Elixir. I like that the general setup of the compartments on the outside can make it messy to funnel a Queen Charge into the crucial part of the base in time.

Here’s a nice base to use during CWL but it also works for Clan War and Trophy Pushing quite well. Yes, it’s a base with a centralized Town Hall but the overall setup makes it not easy to actually funnel into that core section and going through is also not that easy.

The nasty thing here is that you have all the crucial defenses like CC, EA, IT well protected inside the core so no way to get heavy value out of a Queen Charge like many current meta attacking strategies use plus the trap setup in the core to help with Hog/Miner hybrid attacking strategies.

This base here has several nice features that you don’t want to miss, so let’s get into them real quick. The Town Hall is in this semi-exposed open compartment and the reason is you want to prevent at any cost that Yeti-Smash or Pekka-Smash attacks are able to funnel through the Town Hall into the rest of the base.

Also, you don’t want to have a Suicide Hero approach to run directly for the Town Hall. The wall make sure that the heroes will go around and then get distracted by other buildings and defenses so there’s no easy take on the Town Hall Another nice feature is the Inferno Towers lined up in their own islands. This is a really cool feature of this base because no matter what troops enter one of the compartments with an Inferno Tower, they simply can’t reach the next Inferno Tower.

It’s basically impossible to funnel through all three of these Inferno Tower islands and when only one of these Inferno Towers will survive the cleaning troops or leftover troops will have a hard time clearing this base.

Also this helps forcing attackers to use only a certain attacking style against this base, but more on that later below 🙂

Normally you see the Eagle Artillery being in the very center of a war base build, but this base here takes a different approach. The Eagle Artillery is surrounded by dead zones to make it very difficult to actually funnel troops through it from that whole side. So, this either gives the attacker a bad time or a silly mistake trying to actually attack from that side and get through that Eagle Artillery compartment 🙂

The only attacks that are able to actually get this base somewhere close to a decent 2-Star are attacks using PEKKA-Smash (yes, forget about the air attacks, they will fail miserely against this TH12 War Base ????).

The reason is that it’s extremely difficult to path Loons, Miners, Hogs or any other troop through that islands with the Inferno Towers and the PEKKA-Smash is the only one that can somewhat okay do it. And there are many pitfalls for those attacks as well, like failing to create a proper funnel, failing to place the Earthquake Spells in the core right to open up the back of the base, etc.

There used to be a time when we had the Town Hall exposed and surrounded by the heavy hitpoint buildings and traps and there have been so many players that still thought they are smarter than us and went all-in with a suicide mission for the Town Hall… well, that time is over. Now the current builds rely more on having the Town Hall in the core again and mess with funneling and let it come down to a brutal honest attacking vs defending power style battle.

The defenses in this base are strategically set so there’s no easy exploit here. If you go ahead with Queen Charge against this base you will get some nice points but the important defenses are completely out of reach so there’s not much more than collecting percentage and that’s it.

It may look like you can funnel into the core area easily just because there’s a path but the Inferno Towers will make sure (especially with the Air Sweepers) that there’s no easy way in here, although many troops will factor that path – and this is the point where this base keeps messing with pathing and the attacker runs into tricky spots.

I really recommend you to use this base – it’s fresh and there’s nothing you will regret
