Tips and tricks
- In shared-keyboard games, agree on who uses which keys before you start — hand collisions cause more losses than skill does.
- Do not tilt. After a bad round, the next one is a fresh start; the player who resets emotionally usually wins the set.
- Short, frequent matches build skill faster than marathon sessions.
- Play the opponent, not the game. Notice what your rival keeps doing and punish that habit.
- Because this is a Strategy game, economy first, power later.
