QUICK ANSWERThe battlefield is a toolset. Official material confirms that you can destroy and reposition cover, create ice or explosive pillars, lay mines and traps, and shove enemies into pitfalls. The strongest habit is to solve geometry first, then spend direct damage on what remains.
01
Terrain tools and their jobs
| Tool | Use it for |
|---|---|
| Destroy cover | Open a line or remove a protected position. |
| Ice pillars | Block or slow access and reshape lanes. |
| Explosive pillars | Create a damage threat that can be triggered around clustered enemies. |
| Mines / traps | Make an approach tile expensive or unsafe. |
| Push | Convert positioning into collision, trap or pitfall value. |
02
Demo footage adds one useful lesson
Players in the supplied videos repeatedly discover that a displacement skill becomes much stronger once they start aiming at obstacles rather than treating the push itself as the reward. That is a stable tactical idea even if damage numbers change.
03
Before you attack
- Mark dangerous approach lanes.
- Look for a push destination: obstacle, trap, pit or bad tile.
- Decide whether a pillar should block, split or explode.
- Only then spend ordinary attacks.
