Strategy & Tips

Helix isn't just about the commands—it’s about outsmarting your opponent with every move. Here are some strategies to help you master the game:

General Strategy

Plan Ahead: Think several moves ahead. Anticipate your opponent’s reactions and plan your counters.
Resource Management: Each power has limited uses. Use your most powerful moves when they can swing the game, and save your resources for critical moments.
Adaptability: No single strategy works every time. Adapt your tactics based on your opponent’s playstyle and the current health balance.

Champion Specific Tips

Einstein

Offensive Focus: With high attack power and numerous uses, Einstein thrives on aggressive plays. Pressure your opponent early and often.
Risk & Reward: His modest heal means you must balance offense with careful timing—avoid overcommitting when your health is low.
Clutch Equalize: Use his one equalize move strategically to shift momentum when the score is close.

Newton

Defensive Play: Newton’s robust heal and siphon capabilities let him weather sustained attacks. Prioritize recovery to maintain your endurance.
Steady Pressure: A balanced attack approach helps chip away at your opponent’s health while keeping you in the game.
Smart Siphon: Leverage siphon to gradually drain your opponent’s health, especially when they're heavily relying on their offensive moves.

Situational Tactics

When to Heal: Don’t wait until you’re nearly defeated—heal early if you see a pattern of incoming attacks, but be mindful of overusing your limited heal moves.
Equalize Timing: The equalize move can be a game-changer. Save it for when the health gap becomes critical and you need to level the playing field.
Maximizing Siphon: Siphon works best when your opponent has already taken damage. Use it as a countermeasure to slowly reverse the tide in your favor.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Overuse of a Single Power: Relying too heavily on one move can leave you vulnerable. Keep your strategy diverse.
Ignoring Turn Order: Make sure you’re always aware of whose turn it is, as timing can make or break your strategy.
Poor Resource Management: Always track your remaining power uses—running out of a key move at the wrong time can be disastrous.
