BEST Anti Dragon Duke (TH17)

TH17 trophy base built as a strong anti 2 star and anti Dragon Duke layout with a central Town Hall island and chaotic ring pathing. The Town Hall sits in the middle with the Multi Gear Tower beside it, while the Sweeper points upward to disrupt air pathing through the core. Around the Town Hall is a messy ring of compartments that forces troops to move around instead of cutting straight through. At the bottom, the Clan Castle and Dragon Duke create a dangerous defensive pocket. To the right of that section, a Rage Spell Tower compartment protects a Multi Inferno, Giant Cannon, Scattershot and Multi Archer Tower, with heavy Giant Bomb stacks to punish ground pushes and hero charges. The base is especially strong because Dragon Duke jetpack value is baited from both the top and bottom using Tesla pulls and walling that pushes him toward the sides instead of letting him fly cleanly through the core. On the right side, the Monolith compartment sits above the lower Rage Tower zone with a Firespitter aimed toward the lower middle. At the top, another Rage Spell Tower compartment covers a Multi Inferno, Giant Bombs, Multi Archer Tower, Ricochet Cannon and Tornado Trap. On the upper-left side, an Air Defense and Firespitter compartment aims damage toward the lower middle, while the left side adds another Multi Inferno and Air Defense compartment. Many attackers will try to send the Duke from the upper-right toward the Monolith and finish near the Clan Castle, but the Sweeper pushes him left into the Rage Tower kill zone. If they start at the Clan Castle side instead, they run directly into Firespitter pressure, making this a very annoying TH17 anti Dragon Duke trophy base.
