After a successful gank, use your number advantage to push and cause permanent damage to buildings. With enemy towers losing 1/3 of their armor per enemy dead, you’ll chip away quickly at tower health. The bonus gold and map control granted from killing enemy towers can be decisive deciding factor.
Heroes of Newerth Pushing Tips:
- Be aware of where the remaining living enemies are, and predict what position they’ll take.
- If you expect no resistance, don’t be afraid to use all of your skills on creeps to get to the push objective more quickly.
- If an enemy hero over-extends while trying to delay your push, disengage the tower and pick him off. This happens often, and can let a simple single tower push become game-ending.
- Keep in mind that bases on Grimm’s Crossing are not elevated! Do not fear pushing into the enemy base, it’s just like any outside tower.
The bottom line is that Gank-pushing is the most effective style on Grimm’s Crossing, which is excellent news for those craving action and immediate, tangible rewards for landing an awesome kill. Be aggressive, execute well, and take down the enemy base. It’s what this game should be all about, right? In the next and final part of this guide, we’ll explore the finer details of Grimm’s Crossing and shed some light on its tricks and secrets.
