Hydra Duke Lock

TH18 anti Hydra and anti Dragon Rider base built for ranked trophy pushing with a layered island core and brutal anti air coverage through every stage of the attack. The core starts with the Town Hall island protected by the Long Shot Guardian, with a Monolith island on the lower right, a Multi Gear Tower island on the lower left and a Lava Launcher island directly beneath the Town Hall as the true center of the base. Below that sits a Revenge Tower island with 2 Firespitters aimed toward both sides, creating constant pressure on air troops as they try to circle the lower half. On the bottom left and bottom right outside the base are 2 Rage Tower compartments covering Multi Infernos, Scattershots and X-Bows set to ground and air, which makes air pathing through those lanes extremely dangerous. Between those sections at the bottom, the Clan Castle is protected by 2 Super Wizard Towers and a Tesla Farm, adding a heavy back-end punish that often destroys the last phase of Hydra and Dragon Rider attacks. This base is especially strong in high legend and ranked play where players cannot switch armies after seeing the layout, making it a powerful anti air trophy base even if it is less focused on stopping ground attacks.
