Map control is the invisible advantage that dictates exactly when and where engagements happen on the battlefield.

These bridges are the ultimate choke points—bottlenecks where massive armies are forced to cram into a tiny, localized area.
Holding the Line
Allowing the enemy to cross the bridge and spread out into your wider territory is a massive tactical error.

A single Wizard or Executioner placed perfectly can annihilate a massive swarm while they are clumped together on the bridge.

This technique, known as funneling, allows you to dictate exactly where the final engagement will take place.

Every time they try to attack, their units melt at the bridge; every time they defend, they are fighting in your chosen kill zone.

Do not just play cards randomly on the field; think about the geometry of the arena.
