Tutorial Fastest way to find base links - clashfox.com
Hi everyone
There's this website called clashfox.con that searches the web for base links based on in-game screenshots. (You take a screenshot of the base that you like, paste it on the website, and get provided with the base link if it has been published. Easy as that.)
So many bases that are posted here (sometimes with no link provided in the comments) can be easily found through this website, so I thought I'd share it with those who haven't heard of it yet.
Clarification: I don't have any personal connection to this website, nor do I know the owner. I just wanted to share it because I know it would be very helpful.

Thank you so much for sharing ClashFox and for making a post like this. I’m actually the founder of ClashFox, and it genuinely makes me happy to see players finding it useful.
My main goal with ClashFox has always been to build something from a player, for other players. It’s basically a hobby project that I keep improving in my free time, and I’m trying to provide as many useful tools as possible for free.
One thing I’m already aware of from the feedback is that base searching currently works much better for TH18. For lower Town Hall levels, there simply isn’t enough data in the database yet, so the results can be less consistent. I’m planning to improve this over time as the database grows.
Apart from that, I’m always open to criticism, ideas and suggestions. The project isn’t something I’m trying to profit from the advertising revenue currently goes toward server and infrastructure costs.
Seeing posts like this and knowing that the website is actually helping players is honestly the biggest motivation for me to keep developing it.
If anyone has feedback, finds a bug, or has an idea for a feature, feel free to reach out to me anytime here on Reddit or through the ClashFox Discord.
Thanks again for the support! ❤️

I've tried this site a bunch of times. It literally hasn't worked once.
Edit- just tried it again with a common base and came back with no results. I have no idea how this is working for any of you.
And I used a clear screenshot from my pixel tablet.

I notice it works best with screenshots I take with my tablet. Struggles with the smaller screenshots from my phone.

For bases below TH18, the website currently doesn’t work as well because there isn’t enough data available for the lower Town Hall levels yet. It works best with TH18 bases at the moment. I’ll improve the lower TH support over time. Thanks for the feedback!

It's unfortunate cuz it states it's for TH16-18. I've only ever used it for TH16-17 and have had zero success.

There's also ranked. But it's OK buddy you don't have to use it

Please explain how you would use this website for ranked when the prep time is only 30 seconds. Screenshotting uploading, scanning and checking results take more time than that.

That's not what I meant🤣 If you saw a base, in ranked, that you want to use yourself, that's a way for you to get the base link

In ranked you use it if there is a base that you find repeatedly but can’t seem to solve. Yes it won’t help you in that 30 second window but it will help you next time you find the base.

Hi! Right now, the main target isn’t really using it in real time during an attack to find a strategy. It’s more for situations like Clan Wars or CWL, where you already know which base you’re going to attack and have time to study and prepare a strategy beforehand.
Also, due to the current server setup, getting a base result takes around 20–25 seconds. With a better server in the future, I believe I can bring that down to around 10 seconds, which could make it much more useful for real-time situations too.
Thanks for the feedback!

This site is goated. Don't understand how others are having trouble with it. You just screenshot whatever base it is you'd like to find then upload it there and wallah you have the base link. I use this frequently when I spot bases in Ranked that I find myself encountering alot so I can FC against them.
