*The best way to win on this map is to stick together, play like a team, and use as many vehicles as possible. | *The best way to win on this map is to stick together, play like a team, and use as many vehicles as possible. | ||
*You can also use the Shade turret as an option if needed, although it is less practical for offensive purposes. It is able to take out Banshees and Ghosts, especially in Team Games where they are likely to be in dogfights. Also, it can give cover fire to a teammate fleeing an enemy, although since the Sniper Rifle spawns next to the teleporter, the Shade is of dubious value. | *You can also use the Shade turret as an option if needed, although it is less practical for offensive purposes.

*This map is an experienced Banshee pilot's dream. Unlike [[Blood Gulch]] and [[Sidewinder]], the level's [[Invisible Walls|invisible ceiling]] is incredibly high, providing ample room to maneuver. With the proper tactics (i.e. falling shots, curling, and peeling), the top pilots can take on two Scorpions at once and win. If they continuously neutralize all threats (other Banshees, Scorpions, Shades, etc), the pilot can allow a team to dominate a match. | *This map is an experienced Banshee pilot's dream.

*Often, Scorpion drivers will back into the ocean to prevent being blindsided. But this makes the vehicles very hard to access for teammates if the driver is lost. Another problem is that these drivers will often stay still, making their pilots easy targets for a sniper. | *Often, Scorpion drivers will back into the ocean to prevent being blindsided.

*A useful trick for modes with 4 Ghosts spawning per team is to take the enemy Ghost that spawns behind the Banshees and drive it off the cliff. If you successfully land, it is then a fairly simple matter to drive into the base, splattering anyone getting in the way and take the flag. The Ghost's high speed also makes it the perfect flag transporter. | *A useful trick for modes with 4 Ghosts spawning per team is to take the enemy Ghost that spawns behind the Banshees and drive it off the cliff.

*Each base can spawn up to 4 Scorpion tanks. Try to get teammates to use them with you. Controlling a number of Scorpions at a time is a good way to win a Slayer of CTF game. | *Each base can spawn up to 4 Scorpion tanks. Try to get teammates to use them with you.

*Each base has 1 Shotgun. A good tactic is on a CTF game is to camp in the base with the Shotgun and take out any opponents that try to steal your flag. | *Each base has 1 Shotgun.
