Creator's Take
Willjum emphasizes this base breaks the predictable TC placement raiders expect. He highlights the abundance of storage—more box space than typical designs his size. He stresses that garage doors are essential throughout. The pancake layering and floating triangle frames are technical but worth mastering.
Best For
Solo and duo teams wanting unpredictable defense with heavy storage before mid-wipe raids.
