Tips and Tricks for Decimus

After the well deserved buffs he received, I’ve decided to play Decimus a whole lot more. I was wondering if any of you have any tips or great strategies you use?

Currently I mostly run a double Raid Camp infantry attack for the 7:00 minute mark. I take advantage of all of Decimus’ passives and Siphon, but don’t much use his other abilities.

Got any strategies you want to share? Have any suggested leader powers I should use more often? Any help is appreciated!

Vortex is amazing.

Boundless Siphon is not worth a leader point.

Good to know, I never use Vortex

Vortex is amazing, but so is siphon. It’s really a matter of what you need situationally. Also, I’d say that boundless siphon is 100% worth it, but only with locusts. They deal huge ammounts of damage so fast to buildings that enemy bases become health supplies. Finally, never use fury on a scarab. I learned that the hard way- you lose 50% of your scarab to yourself. RIP.

Fury is an interesting ability, but like he said:

Basically useful on units that you know are going to have a short lifespan. On the other hand, the Siphon and Boundless Siphon can heal your units nicely and they’ll be extremely difficult to take down. Having a couple engineers and shrouds to cover them works even better in conjunction with jump brutes and locusts when you’re assaulting a base.

Decimus Drop is also pretty good too. He’s been buffed significantly and can now much more easily stand up to more attacks and dish it out. I usually move him and the Warlord around at the same time. Although they can’t be attacked by air, having a handful of banshees and reavers remedies that.
