Strategy
Susan K. Asked 15 years ago
What should my strategy be against an attacking player? Attacking back or defense?
Alois Rosario Answered 15 years ago
Hi Susan,
Think about what you do best first rather than your opponent.
If you are good at attacking you should try to do this. If you are a better defensive player then try to set up your points so that you can get into a defensive position.
In general you should try to stop your opponent from making the first attack or make it as difficult as possible to make the first attack. This doesn't matter whether they or you are a defensive or attacking player.
