Playing this team
Game Plan DP the opposing team out with frequent, irresistible spikes in an 8v8 situation.

8v8 Flag Split Lategame
 * Perform frequent spikes.
 * Also call midline spikes with your paragons.
 * Hold the flag on your runner or the pact mesmer.
 * Try to spike their flag to get the advantage.
 * Defend with the runner and if necessary dash mesmer.
 * When the opposing team's split has committed to attacking NPCs and stay deep in your base, attempt a full collapse with [["Fall Back!" (PvP)@10].
 * Defend with runner and dash mesmer.
 * If there's an opportunity for it, try to wipe the opposing team with a full collapse around the 26 minutes mark.

Playing against this team
8v8 Situations Flag Split
 * Take out [[Brutal Weapon@10].
 * Catch the warrior on [[Frenzy].
 * Cover [[Spirit Bond (PvP)].
 * If your team setup allows for it, power run and flag push.
 * Safeguard your own flag with [[Aegis (PvP)].
 * You can attempt splits.
 * Never fall back too far with your main team so a full collapse with [["Fall Back!"@10] doesn't result in a safe kill of your split.
