Title: Archmage Strategy
Post by: Kitten on 25 January 2016, 21:47:42

I've been playing against the AI trying to learn how to play different races. One difficulty I had with magic is that I found it difficult to use archmages. They are fragile, so they require tanks, but their friendly fire reduces the effectiveness of ghost armors that I put in front of them. Do I just need to improve my micro or is their a strategy that I am missing.

Magic using Archmages is the hardest to play faction of all. Yes , to succeed you need to improve your micromanagement a lot. Playing magic a bit more advanced is nothing for beginners.

Hint: a good strategy is to send in cheap units one after another to make enemy stop and shoot with archmages for example.

Interested in practicing with me? I'm going to the lobby now, maybe I'll run into you. I like playing either co-op or human vs human.
