Biggest mistakes
  • β€’Hitting from the side/back: you waste turns and get knocked back instead of dealing damage.
  • β€’Letting creep control the board: if it must be in creep to attack (phase 2), it becomes a zone-denial puzzle.
  • β€’Chasing the wrong angle: the fight is an orientation problem, not a damage race.
How you actually win
  • β€’You consistently attack from the front to avoid blocked hits.
  • β€’You keep lanes open to re-angle when it turns or slides.
  • β€’You prepare for the phase change and don’t get surprised by the speed spike.
