Tips/Tricks/Mechanics

'''This page has been created in order to share useful tips, helpful tricks and interesting mechanics that the game currently features. Feel free to add as much information, which may or may not have been mentioned before, as you want!'''
 * Try not to split into more than 4 cells, unless it's in order to save your life. By doing that, all your cells will be very small and you'll have a hard time controlling them, giving your enemies an opportunity to finish you. Other than that, the more cells you split into the more hostile cells will be able to consume you.
 * Be careful in FFA, even though some cells might seem passive towards you, that doesn't mean that they won't consume you at the first chance that they get.

2. Mechanics
 * Make a friend in FFA and you can't lose. Every time you split, just feed the small parts to eachother. Split to attack smaller cells, and unite to take on larger ones.  Even virus attacks will be laughable.
 * Occasionally you may find a player with one cell much larger than the other. If the smaller cell is facing you and the larger cell is considerably larger than you, you will be easily able to catch and eat the smaller cell because the larger cell will block the smaller cell from getting away. Keep in mind that if the larger cell is more than double your size, he may split kill you to save the smaller cell.
 * 1) Tricks
 * Attacking bigger cells with Virus is a good but very risky way of dealing with them, but always remember to check how much mass you'll end up having after ejecting mass (Which can take up to 7 tries) into a virus.
 * Trying to bait an enemy by ejecting some mass into their direction can be a surprisingly effective way of fooling them into getting eaten. This works especially well in Teams Mode when you have your allies as a backup.
 * Cells can avoid being eaten by going in between two larger cells. The cell needs to be very precise (no more than 10% more on one side) to pull it off. This can be used to avoid being eaten when cornered or to maneuver around viruses. Keep in mind that players will move back and forth to try and eat you when you move in between their cells.
 * If you find yourself between several large cells with nowhere to run to, try to find a virus and "chum the waters" by splitting one of the large cells. The rest of the large cells will swarm on it giving you the opportunity to escape.
 * In Teams Mode you can split through your allies, which is very useful if they are blocking your way, or if you're trying to surprise your enemy. Remember to stay relatively close to your ally when you do it, though.
