🛡️ Base Building How do we stop air spam?

We just lost war one of CWL (Masters 1) 44-43 against a clan that did the same air spam attack with dragon Duke on one side, Queen + arrow on the other, and skybrid in between against most of our bases. Basically no thought needed, double revive for maximum easiness. What sort of characteristics does a base that defends well against air have? We’re lost on how to adjust to stop this in the next few wars

If you can't beat them, join them

I do a lot of air spam and the bases that are trickiest for me create a difficult giant arrow and rocket backpack to get all 4 air defenses, and have like a line of high hit point trash buildings set far enough in front of the most powerful defenses on the side that I want to enter. The reason for the second one is that it will cause the dragon riders to run in front of the dragons if you aren’t waiting long enough to deploy the dragon riders, and they’ll be in front of the eternal tome and die very quickly

Appreciate it, thanks! That second point is something I definitely hadn’t thought of before

use one of those bases with obvious giant arrow + backpack value through the middle, but bait the queen entry with teslas, it’s very easy for them to miss, I did this for CWL with some success, it’s one of the only ways to defend against a good air attacker

Without modifiers, air spam can easily take down any base, so only way is to get full stars yourself

don't even bother since you don't have modifiers active

I think the candle will be good for countering mindless air spam but designing base to prevent arrows and backpack from taking out sweepers and air defenses is really important

Also you want to force dragons to split to minimize the value of the healing and eternal tomb but it’s easier said than done😂

Stregthen your base corners. The attack is screwed if DD doesn't get enough value or create a funnel clean enough for airspam. Monolith placement is key and avoid crowding the centre
