Your opponent kindly supplied the target. In fast 1v1 battles, every shot changes what happens next. Blast through walls to open new angles and collapse towers to expose enemy heroes. Win by taking out their entire crew or turning their castle into rubble. With physics-based artillery and a battlefield that falls apart, you'll need to think on your feet.
