One of the most important parts of Clash of Clans is creating a strong army composition and using it to score three stars in a multiplayer attack. This is done in the Home Village, Clan Capital, and Builder Base. However, most players often focus on performing well in the Home Village alone, ignoring the perks of nailing it in the other two bases, such as Clan Medals and access to the Sixth Builder for the Home Village.
One of the prime reasons players get sloppy in the Builder Base attacks is that thinking about a new attack strategy for another village seems too overwhelming. But rest assured, as we've got you covered by compiling the five best attack strategies for those at Builder Hall Level 5.

5 best Builder Base attack strategies for players at Builder Hall 5
5) Giants and Archers
Giants are the best tanks for those at Builder Base Level 5. Although these troops don't boast much damage output, they can guard your other low HP and high damage output troops while they take down their targets. The best troop that goes well with Giants is Archers since they knock down targets from a far-off distance.
Make sure to deploy Giants near a powerful defense and back them up with Archers. Since the latter can stay invisible for a certain duration after being deployed, they can easily knock down the target defenses with the former shielding them.
4) Mass Raged Barbarians
Raged Barbarian is the first troop that players can unlock in the Builder Base. It is a powerful troop that also has a special Rage ability, which helps increase its damage for the first few seconds.
Mass Raged Barbarians is a good strategy to use in Builder Base multiplayer battles, especially on bases where walls have been used badly. However, players should never use all Barbarians together since they are highly vulnerable to defenses like Mortar and Crusher.
3) Boxer Giant Cannon Cart Hybrid
The Boxer Giant Cannon Cart Hybrid teamed up with the Battle Machine, can be an effective strategy for attacking enemy bases in Builder Hall 5 in Clash of Clans. However, you must upgrade the Cannon Carts to level 7 or above to pull off this attack successfully.
Send in the Boxer Giants, use them as tanks, and spread out the Canon Carts to clear the surroundings. This way, when you release the Battle Machine behind them, it will directly enter the core base without wasting time.
2) GiBaArch
The GiBaArch attack strategy involves Boxer Giants, Raged Barbarians, and Sneaky Archers. This is a good strategy in Clash of Clans to take down strong Builder Bases since the Boxer Giants act as tanks, allowing Sneaky Archers and Raged Barbarians to clear the base.
Players may use Wall Breakers to help the Giants create a funnel for other troops. Using the Battle Machine along with the Boxer Giants is a good way to take down Crusher and Mortar, which the Barbarians and Archers will.
1) Mass Baby Dragons
Baby Dragon is the most powerful area-splash Builder Base troop in Clash of Clans, thanks to its tantrum ability, which enables it to destroy high-hitpoint defenses quickly.
Outside buildings can be demolished with the help of Minions, so players may take some Minions along with Baby Dragons. To utilize the Tantrum ability, players need to deploy Baby Dragons far apart from one another.
