My overall DG strat
Below is what is currently my overall strategy for playing a DG match. Basically it is broken into early, mid and late game. Early game is before you have the gold to get upgrades. Mid game is while you are buying upgrades. Late game is when you have enough ability to attack towers.
Required steps are ... Required ![]()
Optional are tactics I try sometimes before moving to the required steps.
Aside from the specific DG ability use this seems to basically be all the tactical options there are in DG.
Can someone give me some other options? Is it really any different with teams?
