Best TH13 Bases July 2026 — War, CWL and Anti-3-Star Picks

Town Hall 13 is where Scattershots enter the picture — two powerful long-range splash defenses that can cover the entire base from their fixed positions. July 2026 meta at TH13 is dominated by Root Rider and Super Witch Blizzard armies, both of which the best current bases are specifically designed to disrupt. If your TH13 base hasn't been refreshed since spring, this is a good month to update.

What Attacks Dominate TH13 in July

Root Rider armies are the most common approach at TH13 in current play — burrowing troops that emerge inside defensive clusters and destroy them from within. Super Witch Blizzard is the secondary meta: Witches, Bats, and Bat Spell overwhelming single-target defenses with Skeleton spam. The bases holding best against both in July have Giant Bombs on the most common Root Rider underground paths and Clan Castle troops positioned to engage the Bat cluster early in a Blizzard attack.

TH13 War Base Design for July

At TH13, effective war bases in July keep both Scattershots positioned to cover the widest possible area rather than clustering them. Scattershots covering opposite corners of the base force attackers to deal with long-range splash from two directions simultaneously. The Town Hall sits behind three or more compartments, and the Clan Castle stays in the deepest core position. Browse TH13 war bases and TH13 CWL bases for July's top picks.

Farming and All-Around Layouts

For farming at TH13, DE Drills and Storage stay in the core surrounded by Scattershot coverage. Hybrid bases at TH13 — which balance resource protection with trophy defense — are also popular at this level since upgrading requires both sustained raiding and a reasonable trophy floor.
