WHADDUP B O Y S!

Whaaaaats up guys Odd here bringing you the first of a series of beginners map guides. I've managed to get in touch with CurseGrim and hes been kind enough to offer some guidance with this guide, so this ***** official! Professionally approved yo! Kick-starting off with a pretty kwl yet demanding map, Sky Temple. The guide will be broken down into the tips in which cover various things like, what the F#$@ do I do and why the F@$# is there a Diablo on my team? No but really I'll try to cover the fundamentals of this map and hopefully improve your game!

Football formation... Er. I mean lane positions Top

An efficient way to play this map, and Im sticking to those words, efficient and play as Im trying to avoid using the word META as much as possible, is for your team to position themselves is in a 3-1-1 setup. Always having one three man lane and two one man lanes. This is to soak as much experience as possible whilst still having a great amount of pressure on the temples. The other way to go if your team mates are just not cooperating, which they're probably not, is 2-2-1. This way is just as good as at least your team mates are near for when the temples activate.

Le temple rotations Top

An important piece in succeeding on this map is getting to terms with the temple rotation:

The first round of temples activates at 1:30 into the match with a 15 second warning. This round will always consist of the top and middle temples.
The second round will always trigger at the bottom temple.
And the third round is where the game tries to screw you over. RNG is now a thing. There's a 50% chance between the middle and top temples activating while the bottom temple will always activate. From the fourth round on, the temple activations are anyones game, no one knows, just be around ready and pass the time placing bets on it.

Pushing dat sweet sweet advantage Top

Ok so now you know the temple rotations, the difficult decision comes down to deciding how many players to send to each temple. This isn't something I can specifically tell you, it kinda comes down to situation of at the time. So for the first rotation, obviously try and get both temples, if you smashed life at soaking experience and are ahead of them, then yeah go for it, 3 mid 2 tops always good. If it aint going well and you can't get both, at least secure the one and then send someone bot, grab lane experience as the enemy team probably won't be doing this and aim for getting level 10 as quick as possible.

So yeah the second temple will always be bot, know this and have 3 of your players there for when it activates. Generally this is where the game is decided. It often coincides with when the teams both hit level 10, the first to obtain it will usually win this fight and be able to snowball the game. So you manage to kill 2 or 3 people? Go take the boss. You manage to kill 1 or 2 people? Go take their siege camp. From this point on, nothing is set in stone other than the fact that temples still do a **** tonne of damage, aim to cap them whenever possible and time merc camps to coincide with them. Which leads me on to the next point.

Get that temple by Facebook poking them Top

This is a technique that can work really well and is always worth giving a shot at the time. So rather than just sky bombing into 4 enemies in the middle of a *****torm and dying instantly, hang back and throw everything you've got. Whist trying to capture temples your team is at a significant disadvantage, one of your players has to stay inside for one and two you'll be needing to damage the guardians as well. So count your losses and strike after they have been damaged from your harass and the big sand dude. Maybe you can one shot someone and throw the fight in your favour, as long as you get more than half of the temple, then technically you won that temple!
