Introduction

Welcome to the strategy section. This article is one of the larger section in the wiki, so we advise you to make good use of the Table of Contents.

The Basics

Notation

A guide to the various notation you may encounter. Typically the game specific strategy pages will include all relevant notion explained as well.

Joystick Notation

                   .- up (u)
                   |
  up+back (ub) - 7 8 9 - up+forward (uf)

      back (b) - 4   6 - forward (f)

down+back (db) - 1 2 3 - down+foward (df)
                   |
                   `- down (d)

Note: These numbers can be easily referenced by looking at your keyboard "numpad". Think of it as a joystick/controller that is facing to the right. "5" is used to signify "neutral".
