  1. Attack move as much as possible by default.
  2. Don't attack move if opponent has a lot of buildings that your units will target.
  3. Don't attack move you have a multi-unit composition when your units will end up attack the wrong unit. e.g. if you have archers & heroes against infantry & myth units, micro your heroes to attack their myth units.
  4. Focus fire the most dangerous enemy unit (e.g. shift-click archers onto a hero if you have archers & myth units)
  5. Be aware of select all military and select all idle military hotkeys. Use the idle one most often, but use all military when you know that's what you need.
  6. Select hero & select all heroes hotkeys
  7. Select all ranged units, select all cavalry, and select all infantry hotkeys, and others. Try using them as helps you.
  8. Use spread formation against units with splash damage like manticore, ballista. Also good against god powers like Shockwave and Chaos
  9. Hit and run/stutter step micro for archers.
  10. With cavalry, get the surround as fast as possible before engaging to fight.
  11. Know your army's strength and weaknesses, as well as your opponents'. Use them.
