Some pro mastermind tips for the community

[Saica-Fox]

1.Do you play a ♥♥♥♥ ton of zombies randomly with no purpose.STOP, this game is all about time not damage or killing and when survivors kill your zombies they get tons of time 30 seconds for a zombies kill. When you spawn tons of zombies you are just giving them time. That is how Area 2 survivors have close to 8 minutes.

2. Play the clock not the kills or damage like i said above each zombie kill is about 30 seconds. If you hit a survivor u get -1 and grab is -15 so grab often when you control zombies. If you down a survivor they lose 30 but if they get back up they gain 30 so. Too many people i see focus on I gotta kill them alll and hurt them constantly no you need to ambush and grab alot more.

3. Preset your maps for the love of god, Default everything in this game sucks for mastermind decks and maps YES it sucks you gotta lose a bit at first but oh well you need RP to get the good cards and equipment that make all the difference. Those cards unlock in your presets also so you can put high level zombies in your areas by default.

4. This can be depending but dont try to win area one a lot of times i see MM go all in and feed so much time to them in first area they lost last 2 areas cuz survivors have almost 10 minutes going into area 3 even.

5. Try out new deck combos, new equipment, new presets, everything you need to experiment to see what works you cant just use the same tactics over and over and expect to win. Dont get all but hurt over a loss cuz guess what your RP is based on your score C B A S not if you win or lose I have got A's even S on a loss just depends how you do. So dont cry if you dont win all the time

Bonus tip 6. Lock doors turn off lights huge help try to lock level 2 or 3 also not just 1

Bonus tip 7: control your dam zombies also best if one of your other zombies grabs and you just swipe it deal massive damage

Bonus tip 8: Control a zombie and keep closing the door they open to stall them and buy time

Bonus tip 9: Some maps are more sided to one team than the other and if you have a mpa that has elevator or platforms use them to your advantage to troll survivors like they do your bio weapon. I hove lowered elevator with g-brikin than put the lone survivor in the one kill move by the time they get back up survivor is dead

Listen to this guy! You guys literally default decks and try to kill everyone with a level 3 mastermind and no high tier perks but expect to win matches.

I literally can't with these people lol..

[RedPandaDontDie]

also a pro tip is bunch zombie in one exit room with adreline pumped and when all 4 survivors inthe room spawn Mr. X in the only exit which is a death trap usually unless the group spam flash and grenades

Are you suggesting you are a pro MM and everyone else on this forum is a peasant who should feel gratitude that you came out from your bunker to grace us with your wisdom and knowledge of the arcane?

YEA THEY ALL TALK LIKE THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHY THEY LOSE

It's too painful to get to the point of customization, or unlocking new good cards for decks. Lucky for you that you got to that point early where you can compete with survivors now but I barely reached the point of customizing maps, there isn't ♥♥♥♥ you can do against a halfway decent survivor group at my point no matter how well I play it.

1. If you don't place down zombies the survivors will speedrun the objective and finish the map in less than 60 seconds. If you do place down the zombies the survivors will farm all of them while taking lots of hits sometimes even going down but gain so much time from kills that it's completely pointless.

2. Good luck getting a zombie grab when the survivors have about a dozen ways to stunlock you and the bite animation is so long that you can be interupted before getting the hit. You can sometimes ambush them at the doors but at best you'll get a few swipes in before being kicked to the floor.

3. Presets help a bit but resources are very scarce for most maps, if you try to set up an ambush most of the time it'll just end up feeding the enemy team more time. Most of the default presets are quite bad tho.

4. If you don't go all in in the first two rounds the survivors will have 12 mins of time on the final mission which is impossible to deal with. If you don't successfully limit their time then they will just run away from your B.O.W and wait for it to despawn instead of being forced to attack the objective.

5. It's hard to try out new deck combos when it requires losing over and over with each MM character just to get them to a high enough level to even stand a chance. At level 1 you're locked to the default set and aren't able to take passives. You shouldn't be forced to play 100 one sided games before you're able to do anything remotely fun as MM.

Yes, that is why you just tought it out and grind not a big deal if they escape just get a good rank i get A on most losses. No big deal dont take it so serious once you get ranked up you will become a lot of a threat and stop playing for damage and kills play for time

I'm sorry I really dont enjoy sitting here for 20 hours getting my balls repeatedly kicked by the game until the game is graceful enough to let me have fun.

1. you let them win first area cuz its so fast and its an easy objective. try to stall but dont play to many zombies you will give them more time and have 8 or 9 mintues in 2nd area

2. you grab them when they walk through door way ambush them play as the zombie and it works.

3.Yes try all trap preset mix and match tons of ways to preset trust me.

4. thats why they have 12 minutes your going all in on the last area for me survivors have 5 mintues max so your doing something wrong for sure.

5.i have 3 MM at rank 11 and 1 at rank 3 and i have played for 13 hours and maybe about 30 games not near 100 like your saying lmao

Doing damage and such is important for the score:

Survivors

Time: Points are awarded for having more time remaining.
Mission Progress: Points are awarded for progressing through the areas and working towards objectives.
Technique: Points are awarded for dealing damage to creatures, rescuing teammates, picking up Umbrella Credits, and other such actions.

Mastermind

Time: Points are awarded for running out the clock more quickly.
Mission Progress: Points are awarded for each Survivor who is prevented from escaping.
Technique: Points are awarded for dealing damage to and defeating Survivors, and other such actions.

Because survivors are blatantly overpowered and this is coming from someone who played a ♥♥♥♥ ton of the beta before launch, playing a lot during launch and just playing a ♥♥♥♥ ton of survivor since.
