Well, the outcome of the match is 9 times out of 10 determined by the first successful invasion. If you see you're going up against a team, here's some advice: 1. Put on an invader set if you have one and be prepared to carry the PvE and PvP side of things. Have on 4 pieces ams a synth popped. 2. Do your best to allow your teammates to get blockers so they bank as soon as your team has 25 motes. If that means only get 5, so be it. The first team to hit that 25 mote milestone gets the first invasion. If it's successful, the invasions snowball from there. 3. Get the first heavy brick if you need it. 4. Get good invader weapons. Snipers, scouts, machine guns, rockets, etc. 5. If you get the first invasion, act fast. Get them while they're at the bank and get a couple kills before you're called out. That's your chance to get the big fish. Once that happens, the team will either run or ape. Use your heavy if they ape, and if they run, try to close the gap to the best of your ability without dying. It's better to be there for the full 30 seconds than die after 5. 6. If your team doesn't get the first invasion up, slay blockers up until the invader is there. Do not run from the blockers. Once the invader arrives, hunt him down. Odds are your blues will just run, so do whatever it takes to make sure they get their motes in. Kill him. 7. Your blues should now bank. If they don't, the game is over unless you can drop a second invader. If they do bank, invade and see number 5.
