RE: Tips for New Players
Hi all! I am not quite as good as some of the beta testers listed as contributors, but due to an artifact of my participation in the beta test I automatically started in Clever league, where I have started 23-1. So while I am no grandmaster, I plainly know something about noob stomping Smile

I have two tips for you:

(1) In addition to "wits" -- your available action points and unit purchasing points -- there is a second resource that you spend in Outwitters. Lets call them "spawns" since they have no official name. On several maps, you only have one spawn site, and thus can only spawn one unit a turn, while on some maps you have two. Because spawns are limited, if you can get numerically ahead on units you can often stay numerically ahead on units, which with proper strategy and patience, can sometimes be converted into a decisive advantage. This is particularly true on maps with one spawn per side;

(2) In my 24 games, I have purchased super units 3 or 4 times. Conversely, I have won maybe 8 or 9 games purely because a new player purchased a super unit unwisely. They ARE powerful and can win you games, and many of the stronger players use them more often than I do, BUT my advice to you as you start your journey is this: buy super-units VERY cautiously at first. Think twice, then think again. The Bombshell is a particularly bad idea to buy for your first time in a League game, since if you dont understand exactly how it works you are going to waste wits. Test the Bombshell in either pass and play or a random game.
