Halo Wars 2 Blitz Strategy & Tips
Keep a Well Balanced Deck
Again, this might seem obvious to some, but if you’re a new or inexperienced Halo Wars 2 player, use the starter decks until you get a feel for a strategy that you want to use. At first glance, it may seem like a good idea to stack your deck with as many powerful cards and powers as you possibly can, but in reality, you need a deck that has a healthy mix of different energy values and army counters.
Forost of the early game, you’re going to be operating with something like 20-120 energy at any given point which isn’t enough to sustain an army comprised of nothing of tanks, super units, and leader powers. You need those cheaper energy cards to get you through the game and act as support for the more expensive units later on. In fact, you may want to cycle those expensive cards out if you get them early on in the game. Once you have a consistent flow of energy coming in, then you can start bringing out the big guns.
Also make sure you haven’t neglected critical support units that can either heal your or detect cloaked enemies. Without detection, for example, cloaked units can contest a zone for as long as they can remain undetected. Always keep at least one detection unit in your deck.
