User:Delluminati/Domination Strategies

Introduction
Domination is a fun mode to play. Leveling up quickly is necessary to dominate the dominators quickly. Here is a strategy that might help you to maximize your winning chance.

Analyze the playground
Once you have joined the game, look at the positions both bases (red and blue). There are two kind of position:
 * 1) Both bases are horizontally opposite (both of them are on top/both of them are on bottom).Fds.PNG
 * 2) Both bases are diagonally opposite (top left and bottom right/top right and bottom left).

If the bases are horizontally opposite, you can farm on the Pentagon Nest (recommended is on level 10) or on the bottom/top of the map (depends what kind of horizontal opposite, if it is top horizontal, then farm at bottom and vice versa) to level up quickly (for the bottom/top of the map, it is recommended to farm in there on the first 3 minutes). So for that kind of map, farming is much more easier. For dominating the dominators, it is not recommended to dominate the dominators which is nearest to the base due to there is a chance of the enemy steal it.

If the bases are diagonally opposite, you can farm on Pentagon Nest or the edges (less resource and higher chance to counter enemies) once you are level 10 (better to upgrade penetration and reload speed to face the crashers if go to Pentagon Nest). Unlike the horizontal opposite, farming is much slower which could be an advantage if your team conquers the Pentagon Nest (enemy team's progress will be much slower than your team's). It is recommended to dominate the dominators which is the nearest to your base, unlike the horizontal opposite, the enemy team may not dominate there due it is hard to defend dominators far way from their base.

Pick your tank
This part is crucial if you want to win.

There are few major tank roles:
 * Spammer: Good for facing a large crowd especially when you teamed up with another spammer, blocks bullets, disrupt regeneration and facing Sniper role. Bad for dominating alone due to spread bullets or face another spammer with better penetration and shooter.
 * Defender: Good defending dominators, defending team when dominating a dominator, takeover the Pentagon Nest. Bad for facing a large crowd or spammers alone (without any Sniper or shooter), dominating alone, snipers which could pass through your bullet or trap.
 * Dominator: Good for dominating turrets, facing a slow reload speed tank. Bad for facing a spammer.
 * Sniper: Good for killing enemies from far away, face spammer with low penetration from far away, low health enemies, a large crowd from far away. Bad for facing a large crowd from nearby, spammer from nearby, and dominating.
 * Shooter: Good for killing sniper, overseer, rammers and slow reload speed spammers. Bad for facing a large crowd alone.
 * Rammer: Good for facing enemy with low health and speed, overseer with slow drone, and sniper. Bad for facing shooter, spammer with high damage.
 * Assassin: Good for facing a single enemy with weak defense, sniper. Bad for facing large crowd alone from close distance.
