A 3x3 starter base that expands into a solid trio design. Perfect for wipe day when you have limited materials.

Creator's Take
Kidd calls this the cheapest base ever. Extremely low upkeep for what you get. Fits a solo, duo, or trio comfortably. He personally uses it as a solo/duo base but confirms trio fits with no issues.
Best For
Early wipe progression for solos and small groups who need cheap, expandable defense fast.
