Beating Defensive Players
Why Defense Feels Hard to Break
Defensive players avoid risks, close territory early and wait for mistakes. This style can feel frustrating, especially for beginners who attack too directly.
The Core Principle
You do not beat defense with bigger attacks – you beat it with better structure and tempo.
Three Reliable Methods
- Create two threats at once – force them to choose which area to save
- Use Burst as a key, not a hammer – open one tile that unlocks a chain
- Steal initiative with extra turns
Common Mistakes
- Attacking a fully secured area
- Wasting Burst too early
- Ignoring your own territory while chasing theirs
Smart Pressure
Place Totems that improve your land even if the attack fails. Good moves have value in two directions.
Endgame Against Defense
Defensive players often run out of space. Focus on slow growth and let the board limit them.
Patience beats walls. Make the board work for you.
