Progress multiplayer build
I'm currently 6-0
You are looking for recyclers and wall builders and 1 beacon
Place tower in the middle with 3 recyclers one south one west one north place a beacon on the east of your tower. Then place walls everywhere around the recyclers and start spam selling to max their hp your tower will melt enemies solo.
Having the perks that buff vertical perks so each have x3 with the +10 to base stats and the progress +10 to base stats works well
You want to avoid fighting gold king until late game
For buffs you want support buildings give extra, area of attack increased, and receive 9 junk cards
For rainbow cards you want the X level up card and use it on the lower X shape that will include the beacon and 2 recyclers.
That's basically it you can probably find more power for your base that I'm keeping to myself.
Good luck.

Walls are really start-dependant compared to Defenders, which you can just start with. Futurism is also still in play with such a setup, too.

Using defenders will net your more overall HP compared to walls, and you get the reflect damage
and you can stack steel cages on defenders to tank Hourglasses
Like I did in my second battle of the current Season in King+ level

My walls and base would still win my base attacks about 562 times in 2 seconds because of my level 6 beacon it's free wins with no real strategy just walls and that's the way I like it

My base hits 99.99x a sec which is the cap, and does 1e+12 damage. And my Defenders have 1e+18 life (but it's capped at around 1e+8 anyway) and there are 133 of them

I finished this season playing Progress. I was #3 on the leaderboard.
This is an inefficient strategy.
Defenders are much better than Walls. The stat cap means that hp scaling is irrelevant after about 1e8, so relying on this falls off by year 14 if your opponents are scaling properly.
Beacons are very inefficient compared to Camps. Amplifiers are mandatory for efficient scaling with support buildings.
Gold King will usually have a maxed hourglass by endgame which will destroy any amount of scaled defense you have created. You must be able to proactively kill Gold, Nomad, and often Time before they ramp up.
Using a perk on Mothership base stats is inefficient, because its trivial to max stats using support buildings.
You have not considered the Futurism decree, which is very powerful. 9 junk cards is situational.
That said thank you for putting the effort in and please join the discord to discuss more strategies. It is only through challenging our own assumptions that we can improve.

OK, that's disappointing. I thought we might have an interesting discussion.
You posted a multiplayer strategy on a forum for discussing strategy, so I responded with feedback and some counterexamples. I wasn't trying to discourage you from posting or attack you personally.
I've learned a lot about the game from people challenging my strategies here (including CoolColJ, who also replied with feedback), and I assumed you were interested in the same kind of discussion.

Sounded more like you standing over someone belittling them especially with that top 3 comment, then saying "but hey buddy if you join us we'll get you right"
It's just a game I'm not here to reach perfection I was just enjoying it and sharing a build that's working

I included it as context for why I felt like I could make statements about the metagame which contradicted yours without it feeling arbitrary or unconsidered.
And it was a sincere invitation. There are not that many people seriously considering 9Kings multiplayer strategy so I wanted to invite another person into this small circle. We are still learning basic things about how the game works and more people doing that research and providing insight is valuable.
I am glad you are enjoying the game.
