Help me improve as titan

[SpiritBreaker]

Sorry for all the mass posts - some people find that weird, but I've put my mind to improve myself at this map...

If you have some time and are willing to help me improve my gameplay, grab a drink and watch these two replays where I played as titan.

I'd love to hear any and all feedback on what I could've done better, what mistakes I made, etc.

Also, does anyone know about a good, up-to-date, titan item builds guide? Or maybe someone could jot down some notes about the general builds? (I haven't searched at all yet but you could make it convenient for me. )

Some pointers I and others from the games noticed:
- I should attack move (in small steps to avoid fog pathing) cos I missed a kill due to regular moving with a mini.
- I shouldn't let Floating Eye run out mid-siege.. Pay attention to its life timer.

Spoiler!

This cost me the first game as I missed a nuke on Mag and lost out on DPS due to fog block on walls.

- Don't punish too soon when TPing mid and anticipating the Goblin trap stun or other debuffs.
New: - Didn't know MsoG was passable.. Some games I had 5-6 pearls to scour the map...

I'll add others to the list as they are suggested by people.

You can find most of this in the guide section. Some of our really good titans have devoted time into helping players like you with such.

Items

I skimmed through replays pretty fast might've missed some or I might be wrong on some.

• Never exit invisibilty in vision unless you will get a builder kill, if you want feed, go into fog and use chim or something to exit invisibility
• Pearl more places of the map and not just same area to maximize information intake
• Play minion yourself so you can strategize your movements and predict builder movements, e.g. if you show one minion bottom left, one top right and main titan top left builders will gather/base in bottom right area
• Don't camp minion middle if there isn't even builders wanting to gold, at least have it kill mid walls
• Increase micro-management skill
• Use hold command during siege so minions/titan flail around base opening to take useless tower hits
• Don't siege unless you are forced to, in game one they had a full super base and there was plenty of feed left to take on map and plenty of time until GP
• Don't let bases get resources if you would feed instead of siege in game one
• Learn how to siege better, watch replays of good titans sieging
• Sell random items/items drop that are useless
• In game #2 after you nuked goblin workers, predict where goblin will rebuild his factories for easy feed
• Nuke more easy workers, especially with bubonicus which nuke doesn't cost mana. Kill critters if you don't have corpses
• Use wotw when you have a secured kill, you missed 2 really easy kills
• Don't waste time not feeding/finding minions
• Don't give builders so much gold, especially if there is a lot of supports
• Learn to item jump mid walls/bases
• Get more control of the map when you get minions, especially the mid area
• Minimize useless micro-management mistakes, e.g. don't let magnataur steal your teleport
• Never let builders kill your minions, at that point the game is pretty much over
• Don't waste time trying to kill builders you can't kill

Gonna make a titan guide soon? I'll be looking forward to it!

Maybe, if I do I'll probably do a real simple one, because your guides are a lot better if someone is looking for an advanced guide.

Thanks for all the advice everyone! I've read through most of the suggested guides and am reading the rest.

Expect some better games from me soon.
