COC Bases: Best TH3 Defense Layouts (Copy Links)

Explore strong TH3 defense base layouts made to stop easy stars and win more defenses. Tap any base to copy it in one click.

How to Choose the Best TH3 Defense Base

Defense at Town Hall 3 is all about making attackers work for it. Many TH3 raids fail because of bad troop pathing and wasted time. The best TH3 defense base layouts use spacing and structure to prevent quick value, so attackers can’t grab easy stars and leave.

🛡️ Stop Easy Stars

Strong defense layouts avoid giving attackers quick progress. Instead of placing everything in one tight cluster, these bases spread value and reduce simple “drop troops and win” attacks. If you’re losing often, rotate layouts so attackers can’t predict your base shape.

🧱 Spacing + Coverage

Spacing slows down troops and makes them walk longer. At TH3, even a few extra seconds can decide whether an attacker finishes or fails. Good layouts keep defenses covering each other to punish greedy entry paths.

🚫 Anti 2-Star & Anti 3-Star Options

Some bases focus on preventing two stars, others focus on avoiding full clears. That’s why you’ll find a mix of anti 2-star and anti 3-star styles here. Choose the type that matches your league and how you get attacked most often.

🔁 Keep Your Base Fresh

The easiest defense upgrade is switching layouts. If opponents keep attacking you the same way, your layout is too readable. Try a different design from this page and you’ll immediately see better defense results.

How to Use TH3 Defense Copy Links

Tap any copy link and Clash of Clans will open the base preview automatically. If your village is missing a building due to upgrades, the game will show what needs to be placed first. After that, you can apply the full layout instantly.

Quick TH3 Defense Tips

  • Don’t stack everything together: spread buildings to reduce easy value.
  • Rotate layouts regularly: predictable bases lose more defenses.
  • Update after upgrades: new buildings often need small layout adjustments.
  • Track your weaknesses: if attackers always enter from one side, change that side first.
