Split Gambit

Welcome to The Split Gambit, a deceptive Builder Hall 5 box base that forces attackers into a nerve-wracking choice: risk it all for the Builder Hall or aim for safer stars by attacking the other side. This design thrives on misdirection, with the Crusher serving as the ultimate choke point in the middle, splitting the base into two distinct sections. The Builder Hall is fortified with all Cannons, Multi Cannons, and an Air Bomb for balanced ground and air protection. On the opposite side, the Guard Post and Multi Mortar act as bait, tempting attackers to target this zone first. To make matters worse for the enemy, the Multi Mortar is surrounded by traps, punishing those who take the bait. With only one path through the center—right into the Crusher—this base ensures heavy losses for any troops bold enough to charge through.

Strengths

Risk vs. Reward Dilemma

The base forces attackers to choose between a risky 1-star attempt through the Guard Post side or a difficult 2-star attack toward the Builder Hall.

Deadly Choke Point

The Crusher in the middle funnels troops into a trap, ensuring maximum damage and disruption.

Baited Multi Mortar

Cleverly placed traps near the Multi Mortar punish attackers who think it’s an easy target.

Ground Troop Spam (Barbarians, Archers)

The Crusher and traps annihilate swarms, especially at the chokepoint in the center.

Air Attacks (Baby Dragons, Beta Minions)

The Air Bomb and evenly distributed defenses around the Builder Hall effectively counter air-based strategies.
