In the start of the game it is the most important to determine which players are focusing on holding the most difficult [[Waves]], and which players will focus on [[Economy]].

King's Permanent Immolation is the most popular ability due to this Wave, where it makes the King nearly impossible to kill even with minimal upgrades.

The Towers in Legion TD Mega are not all created equal. While most Towers have a niche where they can be utilized with reasonable effectiveness, this is not true for all of them.
Game stages
Breaking the game into three stages the towers gain and lose effectiveness. Many high cost towers overkill the earlier waves making them inefficient and many low cost towers have too little health to survive long enough in the later waves to be worth building.
First Stage
Waves 1-10 In the start of the game it is the most important to determine which players are focusing on holding the most difficult Waves, and which players will focus on Economy. Usually this part of the game revolves around holding Wave 7. It is potentially the most dangerous Wave, quite often enough to kill the King with all four heals. King's Permanent Immolation is the most popular ability due to this Wave, where it makes the King nearly impossible to kill even with minimal upgrades. Due to the focus on this Wave, certain Towers are much more important during this stage.

Waves 11-20 During the second stage of the game is often when teams will go for the kill. After the Arena Battle, it's vital to assess the enemy's weak waves to try and pick the best one to kill them. This should also take into account how much value they have, how much lumber your team has, what King ability they have, and when you think they might send to you. Sometimes a less desirable wave is chosen to force their team to upgrade king rather than be able to send to you on your weakest wave.

Waves 21-31 In the games where neither team is able to close it out, whether due to both teams having high value and income, or neither team being able to get a strong enough send off, the final phase is the determining factor. Most of the waves here are unimportant and just for income, but a few of them can occasionally be used to end it early.
