I do frequently test, build and review base layouts for Town Hall 9 and give them here ready for you so you can directly copy them without testing or building them yourself.
I really hate those sites or videos showing you dozens of bases they copied somewhere without making any deeper explanation why they work so for this reason you will only find bases here that I have tested myself.

This TH9 War/CWL anti–3-star base is designed to defend well by forcing attackers to funnel into the core while avoiding quick arrow value and locking down the air path by clustering air-defense and other air damage together for strong zap resistance. Splash damage at the flanks helps stop Witch-style pushes before they can chain in for easy trip. Although it was one of the best effectiveness options in the current meta about a month ago, more players now know the public strategy—so it’s still strong but will be less effective every day; join AllClash PRO to access PRO bases, which are available to only a small number of players and are less likely to be burned like public layouts.

Released Sep 1Why it works
This TH9 War/CWL base uses an asymmetric anti–3 star layout with strong splash damage on the flanks to counter Witch attacks, protects Air Defenses from Queen value, and reduces easy Giant Arrow/Zap value through smart defensive spacing. While it was among the best options in the current TH9 meta about a month ago, more players now know the public strategy, so its effectiveness will slowly drop every day. It’s still strong and useful—but for the highest defensive success possible, join AllClash PRO to access PRO bases available to only a small number of players, making them far less likely to be burned like public layouts.

Released Aug 1Why it works
This TH9 War/CWL base features a compact anti-3-star layout built to defend against the most common TH9 attack strategies, with protected Air Defenses, minimized Zap and Giant Arrow value, and strong flank splash damage to pressure Witches, Queen Charges, and air armies. Although it was the best option in the TH9 meta about 3+ months ago, more players now know the public strategy and its effectiveness will steadily drop every day; balancing updates and meta progression have also made the foundation feel pretty outdated, so it’s best to choose a newer base higher on the list for better results. Join AllClash PRO to access PRO bases for maximum defensive success, since the limited player availability makes them far less likely to get burned like public bases.

Released Jul 1Why it works
This TH9 Anti-3 war layout was built to shut down classic entries and disrupt current meta strategies with smart compartmenting, spaced outer trash to deny easy Giant/arrow value, and protected core DPS that punishes both air and ground pushes. Although it was arguably the best option in today’s TH9 meta about 4 months ago, it’s now public and more players know the approach—so it will be less effective every day; if the layout is more than ~3 months old, it’s pretty much outdated due to balancing/meta shifts, so it’s smarter to pick a newer base higher on the list. Join AllClash PRO to access PRO bases for the best defensive success possible—since PRO layouts are limited to a small number of players, they’re less likely to get burned like public bases.

War / CWL Base
Released May 1Why it works
This TH9 War/CWL base is a strong Anti-3-Star setup that defends well against the common attacking strategies players are using right now. Although it was among the best in the current TH9 meta about 5+ months ago, it has since been widely shared and more players know the strategy to beat it now, so its effectiveness will drop over time. It’s still useful, but the base is now pretty much outdated due to balancing updates and meta/progression changes—pick a newer base higher on the list for better defensive success, and join AllClash PRO for access to Pro bases that fewer players know and can’t be as easily burnt as public layouts.

Designed as a TH9 anti–3 star War/CWL base, this layout targets Smash-style attacks with layered compartments and a well-protected core that slows heavy pushes and disrupts funneling, forcing inefficient pathing that makes clean triples far harder. Although it was considered the best in the current TH9 meta about 6 months ago, the strategy is now widely known since the base is public—so it’s still strong, but effectiveness will drop every day. Join AllClash PRO to access PRO bases that are only available to a small number of players, reducing the chance of widespread burnout; and if you’re choosing today, note that this base is now pretty much outdated as balancing/meta progression shifted, so it’s smarter to pick a newer base higher on the list.

Released Apr 1Why it works
Anti-3-star TH9 War/CWL base designed to defend strongly against the common TH10 meta, with Air Defenses placed and protected to minimize Zap value and heavy splash damage to help wipe Witches. Although it was the best choice in the current meta about 7 months ago—and many players now know the strategy since the base is public—it’s still solid, but effectiveness will keep dropping each day. Join AllClash PRO for access to PRO bases that are only available to a small number of players, making them far less likely to be burned; also note this base is pretty much outdated now due to balance updates, so for the best defensive success, pick a newer base higher on the list.

Released Mar 1Why it works
This TH9 War/CWL base is an anti–3-star layout built around tight compartmenting and layered defenses that disrupt pathing and prevent clean funnels, positioning the Queen, X-Bows, and splash towers to punish common meta attacks like Hog Riders, Hybrid, and Kill-Squad Lalo. Although it was the best in terms of effectiveness in the TH9 meta about 8 months ago and more players now know the strategy since it’s public, it’s still strong and useful—but it will be less effective every day. Join AllClash PRO to access newer PRO bases for the best defensive success possible, since PRO layouts are limited to a small number of players and are less likely to be burned; plus, this base is now pretty much outdated after balancing/meta progression changes, so it’s better to pick a newer base higher on the list.

Released Feb 1Why it works
Anti-3-Star TH9 War/CWL base built to shut down common Dragon entries with protected Air Defenses, while also handling Witch-style attacks through splash damage traps and giant-bomb pressure in the flanks; for best results, place the Archer Tower in the core if you have it geared. Although this layout was one of the most effective options in the TH9 meta about 9 months ago, it’s now public so more players know the strategy—making it progressively less effective each day; plus balancing/meta evolution has made the foundation a bit outdated, so choose a newer base higher on the list when possible. For the strongest defensive success, join AllClash PRO to access PRO bases—only available to a small number of players, so they’re far less likely to get “burnt” than public bases.

Released Jan 1Why it works
Finish the year off strong with a diamond-style TH9 War/CWL base built to make attackers struggle and drive hard results in both wars and CWL. Although this base was among the most effective in the TH9 meta roughly 10 months ago, it’s now public and more players know the strategy against it—so its effectiveness will keep dropping every day, and the base is now pretty much outdated as balance changes and meta/progression evolution shifted what originally made it great. For the best defensive success possible, join AllClash PRO to access PRO bases that are available to a small number of players, making them far less likely to be “burnt” like public bases—and consider grabbing a newer base higher on the list instead.

Symmetrical · TH9 Stronger in every rating than the September free base. This fully finetuned TH9 Ranked PRO base (box-symmetrical with TH inside) is built to shut down common TH9 entries, using strong splash damage flanks to counter Witch spam while keeping defenses protected. Enemy attackers can’t take out air defenses from outside and can’t “zap” them with other air pressure, and smart placement avoids easy Grand Warden/Air defenses value points so they struggle to grab more than 1 air defense.

Asymmetrical TH9 Ranked Base with strong, reliable defenses against common TH9 attack entries, designed to control typical pathing and secure higher success in ranked matches. Although this base was among the best in the current TH9 meta about 1.5 months ago, it’s now public, so more players know how to counter it—so it will be less effective every day.

Released Sep 1Why it works
This TH9 Ranked Trophy base uses a symmetrical diamond layout with a well-protected Town Hall and a Geared Archer Tower at the core, designed to protect Air Defenses from easy Zap value, deny Giant Arrow value at the corners, and use Giant Bombs on the flanks to disrupt Witch attacks. Although it was one of the best options in the TH9 meta about 2.5 months ago, more players now know its public strategy, so it’s still strong but effectiveness will keep dropping each day.

This Town Hall 9 trophy base uses a box-style layout that was tested and refined against the meta, with strong compartmenting, balanced defensive coverage, and smart pathing control to limit easy access to the core. Although it was one of the best TH9 ranked bases about 3.5 months ago and many more players know the strategy now since it’s public, it’s still strong and useful—just less effective every day as attackers adapt. For the best defensive success, join AllClash PRO to access PRO bases that are limited to a small number of players, making them far less likely to get burnt; and since balancing changes and meta/progression evolution have shifted the foundation of what made this base great, it’s now pretty much outdated—better to pick a newer base higher on the list.

Released Jul 1Why it works
This TH9 Ranked base layout is a true fortress against the most annoying trophy-ladder attacks, originally the best-in-meta option 4.5 months ago thanks to its compartment isolation and punishing pathing that struggles against Super Archer Bombs, heavy dragon spam, and basic ground swarms. Since it’s now public, more players know how to counter it, and after years of balance changes and meta/progression evolution (it’s now pretty much outdated) its defensive edge keeps fading—so it’s smarter to choose a newer base higher on the list when possible.

This TH9 Anti-2-Star Home Village base is designed to defend well against common TH9 entries, with a trash perimeter that reduces Giant Arrow and massive Zap value around key Air Defenses. Splash defenses on the flanks help versus Witches, and a Wrecker can’t open both Multi-Target Inferno Tower compartments, limiting smash-style pathing. Although it was one of the best in the current TH9 meta about 5.5 months ago, it’s now public—so more players know how to attack it—making it increasingly outdated and less effective every day; for better defensive success, join AllClash PRO to access PRO bases that are only available to a small number of players and are less likely to be “burnt.”

This TH9 Ranked Base uses a box-style layout to reduce Zap value on key anti-air structures, with splash damage along the flanks helping disrupt Witch pushes and corner building placement lowering easy Giant Arrow value. Although this base was among the most effective in the TH9 meta about 6.5 months ago, it’s public now and more players know the counter, so its results will keep dropping every day—still strong, but increasingly less reliable.

Defend your Home Village with this TH9 Ranked Base built to counter the popular attacks hitting players today, and which was considered the best-in-meta option about 7.5 months ago. Even though it’s still strong and useful, more players know how to attack it now that it’s public—so its effectiveness will steadily drop each day. Join AllClash PRO to access the PRO bases for the best defensive success possible, since they’re only available to a small number of players and are much less likely to be burnt; if this base is now over 3 months old, it’s pretty much outdated due to balance changes and meta/progression shifts, so you’ll usually get better results with a newer base higher on the list.

Released Mar 1Why it works
This TH9 Ranked base is built for Trophy/Ranked defense and is particularly effective versus common TH9 meta attacks like Zap Dragons and Witch Smash, with corner placement that limits free Giant Arrow value, strong splash coverage on the flanks to shut down large Witch waves, and Air Defenses spaced to reduce easy Zap value. While it was among the best in the current TH9 meta about 8.5 months ago, it’s public now so more players know how to counter it—and it’s only going to be less effective every day, and since balancing/meta progression has shifted, the base is pretty much outdated, so it’s better to pick a newer base higher on the list.

A strong TH9 Ranked Base that performed best in the meta about 9.5 months ago, specifically countering popular strategies by preventing common Dragon entries with protected Air Defenses and stopping Witch pushes using splash damage plus giant bombs on the flanks; if you have the Geared-up Archer Tower, gear up the center one. While it’s still useful, it’s now public knowledge, so more players know how to attack it and its effectiveness drops every day—plus balancing updates and meta/progression changes have made this base pretty much outdated, so consider a newer base higher on the list.
