Building Strategy Guides/Builder Base

''On this page you can view Building Strategy Guides in the Builder Base. This page will tell you where to position each building at high or low levels.'' 



 Cannon The is a basic defense in the Builder Base and it is the first such defense you obtain. They deal a good amount of damage and can serve to pick off Sneaky Archers and other weak troops, or support your more powerful defenses in defeating more dangerous foes, such as the Boxer Giant.

Double Cannon
 Double Cannon The Double Cannon is a powerful ground defense that fires multiple cannonballs at enemies, dealing great damage. It is one of your best defenses against tanks such as the Boxer Giant and the Battle Machine, so keep it well protected to prevent smaller troops from easily overwhelming the Cannon. Keep in mind that its colossal damage per second has no effect on air troops such as Beta Minions and s, so it is best to also guard it with aerial defenses.

 Archer Tower The is a versatile defense that can repel both ground and air attacks alike, and is one of your first defenses that can attack air troops. It can be set to two modes: a fast attack mode that deals decent DPS but only at a short range, and a long range mode that allows the Archer Tower to attack from afar but with reduced DPS. The fast attack mode is better against hordes of Bats and other small enemies, while the long range mode prevents Sneaky Archers and Beta Minions from picking off buildings. Regardless, it is a useful defense to place within.

 Hidden Tesla The is a sneaky defense and functions just like it does in the Home Village. It can attack both ground and air, making it somewhat versatile. However, its damage per second is somewhat underwhelming, but it can still make a contribution nonetheless. Like in the Home Village, it is best to place the Tesla in a position your opponent doesn't expect it to be at.

Firecrackers
 Firecrackers Firecrackers are one of your main aerial defenses, and it will be integral in defending any air attacks, as it deals a good amount of DPS against air troops. At all levels, it is best to keep the Firecrackers protected, preferably placed near the Builder Hall. However, the Firecrackers cannot engage ground troops, so it is best to defend it with another ground defense such as the Double Cannon.

Crusher
 Crusher The Crusher is arguably one of the most powerful ground defenses in the Builder Base. As its name implies, it crushes ground enemies that walk under it, dealing a large amount of damage to all ground units under it. This makes it perfect against Raged Barbarians and Boxer Giants, among other ground troops, but it will be outranged by many ranged troops such as the Sneaky Archer, and cannot attack air units at all. Due to its unique traits, it is best to place the Crusher near an opening in your base to decimate ground units that attempt to pass through the opening, and also protect the Crusher with anti-air defenses.
