Transcripts

hey guys this is heretic and in this Elite Wars  guide I'm going to go over the 535 map and then at  

the end of the video I'm going to show us actually  um fighting on it all right so it's called the 535  

because there's five castles first on each side  for each team and in the middle you have three  

so five castles three castles five castles so  the very first thing you want to do your goal  

here the priorities are a and six by far those  are the priority castles here so normally the  

common strategy is you have a main group and then  you have flanker groups that take the top and the  

bottom that's 90% of all of the strategies that  are out there have that so typically the middle  

group is your non-s spending group so they're  going to be slow your flankers are spending  

on speeds mainly uh you know they're your usually  your stronger players your Spenders so you want to  

take eight and six because these are choke points  if you don't take seven if you lose seven at the  

beginning it doesn't matter seven can only go up  to eight down to six or across to three and meet  

your main ideally you will be able to take 8 6  7 quickly then move s to 11 and forward so the  

best strategy for your main group is to always  keep it moving forward never go back your main  

group should never try to help at the stronghold  they should always be moving forward towards the  

enemy stronghold right your flankers your stronger  players if there's a problem in the stronghold  

they can get back there and help take it that's  the typical strategy things happen right let's  

say your main group loses and their main is up  here somewhere and they're they get to the castle  

and you know and at that case you you may have  to go back but in general the main group should  

always move forward never backwards all right um  again make sure you have your group set up and  

everybody knows the group that they're in so you  get here you take 8 7 six now you can wait so the  

enemy is going to be stuck on five castles they're  going to be spread out they're either going to put  

you know their stronger players up here and here I  mean over here on one of these or they're going to  

have to put it down here or they're going to have  to come in this way or something like that you're  

going to have to judge like you're going to have  you have the upper hand here and you're going to  

be able to use the strategy to your advantage  you could wait and let them hit you right you  

have more castles in them you have the advantage  let them come in and make a mistake right they're  

spread out unless they time it right and they  hit you with 12 and 13 it's going to be either  

or if they you know they're they put everybody  here on 12 and they're headed this way there's  

nothing that prevents you from just going in and  hitting their Castle once you hit their Castle  

you're going to cause a lot of chaos especially  in these younger kingdoms these younger Realms  

uh they're not used to a lot of times U you  strategy used against them once they see their  

main stronghold getting hit their main group  group will head back usually to help while your  

main just keeps Trucking along heading towards  their main Castle once you're you know once you  

have this 11 with your main and you're starting to  hit their their their main Castle here the battles  

over what we like to do a lot of times is to pick  either the eight or the six and make that group  

of flankers be the strong one so you put your  strongest players in let's say the six you you  

have your other flankers up here and it could be  three or four of your flankers and put everybody  

else down here and then what you want to do is  speed in and hit that main castle and cause that  

disruption that chaos while your main is moving  along flankers they have money they can afford  

to heal up and get back into the battle right  that's why you have them your main players are the  

ones you want to protect they're going to win the  battle for you we have many battles where we Face  

stronger players than any of our individuals  but because we have a high participation and  

good strategy we win we haven't lost yet we'll  eventually lose but we haven't lost yet um and  

a lot of it is because we just use good strategy  and everybody plays like you know a part of the  

team so you keep your main moving 4 to 11 you pick  here you could either pick and attack or you can  

let them attack and then once they lose the battle  then you have you know you hit them as fast as you  

can because usually their flankers are going to  be the strongest players as well so once you hit  

that castle so if you guys don't know if your main  Castle gets hit while that battle's going on you  

can't rejoin the battle so if you just to repeat  that if you die if your troops die in the battle  

and the main Castle is under attack they cannot  heal and rejoin the battle let's take a look at an  

actual battle so here we go at the beginning and  this is the 535 map just like we were looking at  

you see our our flankers going up top and to the  bottom speeding through and we're looking to take  

the 678 as quickly as possible POS you see our  main going through the middle they're not speeding  

they're just moving Straight Ahead they sent a  couple guys out and they take the six and the

Seven we have the eight under control  and we're just waiting the main is  

doing a great job they're getting to  three and regrouping while the upper  

uh flank is now headed to take six  and protecting that other route as

well so all of this is happening pretty quickly  um they they try to take our eight castle and that  

happens to have some of our stronger players in  it we're we're absolutely not worried at all here  

they slip through one we don't care you don't  really care if one's slipping through you've  

usually got a lot of you know extra people that  are in the stronghold that are able to take care  

of that but one or two people slipping through  were never really super worried about you can  

see their remain you know moving to take seven  like they should um they did get that person in  

I went ahead and went to the stronghold took  that now I'm going to speed back and and meet  

that battle that's happening there there on eight  but we've got it completely under control didn't  

really need to speed that in honestly but prevent  some more losses from from my friends here they've  

they've left this this Castle uh you know  we're at the choke point and we get to pick  

and you can see one they've left kind of open so  we're going to go ahead and take the uh the nine

here all right and we're going to go ahead and  put all the way into the to the stronghold here  

again you can see their their players start  to come back to protect the stronghold and at  

this point it looks like we're going to lose that  stronghold battle you'll see our other flankers  

now make that push through and you see even some  people within the main because now the main has  

won their battle at three um they've they've  won their battle so the main is now pushing  

all the way through and our flankers are going  to be able to make in and we've got this under  

control we've already won this it's completely  over they cannot heal and get in the battle so  

the the battle's over the timing is everything  here uh once that main won that battle and we  

had already started the battle at the stronghold  game over all right I hope you enjoyed take care
