This game becomes twice as fun having played ROTMG first, because i'm playing and saying to myself "hey! the skull shrine thing!" or "Hey! That's where they got the mystic from!"
If something is coming at you fast, as long as it isn't huge, the best thing to do is charge into it to halt all momentum both ways or just spin off the enemy.
This is a good game, but 99% of people that play this just write the word and whoever types it fastest is the winner. If youre gonna play this game, play it right people!
