Guard Strategy Discussion

[Andibert]

If you use guard you have to consider a few points.

I assume that you root a lot.
While you are rooted you cant move, therefore long ranged weapons seem to be good. Unfortunately the enemies can completely choose on their own when to attack you. Therefore they will attack you when their creeps distracts your weapons. If you have a team that protects you this is no problem at all. But if you rooted alone, you want to have something that hurts enemy tanks directly. Namely these are orbital control (which works perfectly with your stun) or an upgraded gods hammer.
While the orbital is always a good choice the gods hammer is wasted money if your team does a good job protecting you.

Additionally you absolutely want to have an advanced troopcommand at hand. This is perfect for siege and also can give you additional cover when an enemy tank approaches. Make sure you don't release troops if the enemy still has an area dmg skill or use your stun after release to prevent an immediate reaction.

If you have a factory at hand you can produce an even stronger siege.
