Your team's VoD Strategy tends to be different from game to game. Numerous factors can affect your team's strategy, including, but not restricted to: NPCs alive in each other's bases, enemy's build, the map.

[edit] Pre VoD Strategy
- A strategy that can help highly if you think a match is going to head to VoD is to have some of your team split and infiltrate the opponents base to wipe some/all of the opponents NPCs.
[edit] Potential VoD Strategies
Various strategies can be taken based on your NPC situation alone.
[edit] NPC Deficit
- Attempt a Guild Lord gank as a team, or split off some individuals.
- Attempt to kill their NPCs while keeping your NPCs (if you have any) alive. This is risky situation if the enemy's NPC advantage is substantial. Sometimes leads to a party wipe.
[edit] Similar NPC numbers
- Fight 8v8, focusing on killing your opponent's NPCs while keeping your own alive.
- Split characters forcing your opponent's to react.
[edit] NPC Advantage
- Be wary of a Guild Lord gank, as it may be one of the enemy only hopes of achieving victory. This can be done by having defensive and/or offensive characters ready to go towards the Guild Lord.
- Kill any remaining NPCs on the enemy team.
- If the other team decides to fight 8v8 in your NPCs, be sure to apply pressure to the enemy's monks. Hopefully, with your pressure and your NPCs pressure, they will wipe.
[edit] If in Enemy Base
- If you stay out of the way of the NPCs you could take on the Guild Lord when he is on his own.
- You could send your party through another gate when the other NPCs are out fighting one another.
[edit] In Any Close-Contact Situation
- When in a close-contact situation, it is useful to have a ritualist with Splinter Weapon to buff your melee characters as this allows for mass AoE damage which the opponent's NPCs do not move out of, allowing you to kill off a large number fairly quickly.
