First of all, (TECNESS RESTORE THE TGC!!!...your sig pic mocks me... :( )
Timing, Aiming, Speed and Placement of your mage on the map are all important things to consider
Blast is a Basic AOE attack that can be Very Effective against units of all kinds
Tip #1: You can get the maximum range of all spells by standing on top of the map
Tip #2: Spells can be casted without needing to walk to target when you aim 50% of it inside the lines of range
Tip #3: Magikill can sometimes dodge attacks (Even a Giant's Boulder) by "Side-Steping" upward
Tip #4: USE HOTKEYS!!! Q-Blast W-Poison Spray E-Electric Wall, Especially when you have multiple Mages selected (Tip 1 & 2 shown in pic below)


Poison is a directional attack and it is recommended that you cast it as a Line(Diagonal) + The Spell is actually casted above the aimer(Oval).
Ex.

Electric is a AOE Wall-Styled attack that can cover a good line of the BattleField
I recommend to use it on enemy walls and archers or for defense.
Electric Tip: The electric wall is good for defense sometimes as it forces enemies to retreat.
Ex. If a spearton charges your mage it is actually recommended to cast the electric wall on the center of your mage as this will defend it from both sides

Possibly more to be added soon and if you think you have some tips I did not mention you can reply :D

This is awesome, good job Buddy! :p
But seriously though, did you just take 3 screen shots from a game or something?
Idk how you'd take 3.

People should make one of these for each type of unit.

Well, other units aren't as hard to micro as the Magikill.... but it possibly could happen....

Hi reader,

This should go on Tips/Tutorials.

Hi Invicitron,

It's uh.... kinda big for a comment. Plus, making it a thread about it brings more attention, putting it in another thread in a comment, and people could just spam it out.

omg beatiful, see this is the stuff that make me like this website but anyway, i must apoligize that i didnt help you do dis :(

How was I? Good huh. Also, I think you should try to predict what the opponent will do. Or, trick them so they'll waste a spell(Attack other units instead of magikill, he casted it at his place=Your win)

Thank you Buddy...ur a buddy :D ill try to learn these tips

Very Nice Buddy.

How does 1 and 3 work? Mage dodging - tell me more :)

nice guide buddy;)

You no record and put on youtube? I'll do it for you :p

Nice tips, especially to those that cant even use the spells. I say good work.

*Pats Buddy's back*

Buddy, how do you protect your mages when they charge units to kill it first? And don't say wall because if I'm gonna go attack with my whole army there wouldn't be a wal.
