// DRUID TECHNIQUES //Video Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IPl01u4gJ6Y&list=PLFd-9mPvYmbD02hZjtoeW7_XmgnYRWFpQ&index=2/
Technique 1: TeleNado (TN) /
Timestamp: 0:01
How to Perform: When facing the Necromancer on the same screen, teleport above the Necromancer's head and cast Tornado.
Description: This allows you to lock onto the Necromancer's name, preparing for the next attack. The Necromancer’s counter to this is a
short-moving spear (SMS). The Druid's counter to SMS is explained in Technique 2.
Additional Info: "Namelock" means clicking on the opponent’s character with the skill (holding the click without releasing), keeping their name and health bar visible. If the opponent doesn’t move beyond a certain distance off-screen, the name remains locked, allowing teleportation above the opponent’s head using the hotkey for Tornado.
/
Technique 2: TeleTeleNado (TTN) /
Timestamp: 0:12
How to Perform: Teleport in the direction the Necromancer is moving and cast Tornado.
Description: This counters the Necromancer's
short-moving spear (SMS). It disrupts the Necromancer’s timing and distance by teleporting twice, and then casting Tornado.
/
Technique 3: Pre-emptive TeleNado (PETN) /
Timestamp: 0:24
How to Perform: Teleport ahead of the Necromancer’s movement and cast Tornado.
Description: This counters the Necromancer’s
pre-movement spear (PMS) by blocking their path and casting Tornado when they try to re-position for a spear attack.
/
Technique 4: TeleNado + Pre-emptive TeleNado (TNPETN) /
Timestamp: 0:33
How to Perform: Teleport above the Necromancer's head, cast Tornado, then teleport ahead of their movement and cast Tornado again.
Description: This counters the Necromancer's long-moving spear. It can be simplified by omitting the middle Tornado, and just using
Teleport Pre-emptive TeleNado (PETN).
/
Technique 5: Moving Tele Evasion (MTE) /
Timestamp: 0:47
How to Perform: Move perpendicularly to the Necromancer and teleport out of the engagement area.
Description: Useful for escaping when mispositioned or when summons explode, taking advantage of the Necromancer’s spear flying in a straight line to evade and reposition.
/
Technique 6: Predictive TeleNado (PDTN) /
Timestamp: 0:57
Description: Move while teleporting to anticipate the Necromancer's teleport direction (based on their habits or attack timing), then quickly teleport above their head for the engagement.
/
Technique 7: Boomerang TeleNado (BTN) /
Timestamp: 1:11
Description: Enter and leave the screen by teleporting, then return to the opponent’s name and cast Tornado. This maneuver buys time by avoiding the Necromancer’s spear and then re-engaging.
/
Technique 8: Boomerang TeleTeleNado (BTTN) /
Description: Same as above, but you will namelock teleport twice instead of once.
/
Technique 9: Boomerang TeleNado Counter (BTNC) /
Timestamp: 1:24
Description: Same principle as the previous technique but used to counter a pursuing Necromancer when retreating.
/
Technique 10: TeleNado Chain (TNC) /
Timestamp: 1:39
Description: Repeat the process from
TeleNado (TN). Teleport, lock onto the name, right-click Tornado, then teleport again using the hotkey to continuously engage the opponent from above.
/
Technique 11: TeleTeleNado x2 TeleNado Boomerang TeleNado Counter Chain (TTNTTNTNBTNCC) /
Timestamp: 1:53
Description: This is an advanced application of the
TeleNado Chain (TNC). When locked onto the name, you can connect together all the above techniques, adapting to the opponent’s remaining health and summons.
/
Technique 12: Dying from Greedy Behaviour (DGB) /
Timestamp: 2:19
Description: In the video, an attempt to perform
Boomerang TeleTeleNado (BTTN) fails due to a poorly executed teleport, leading to a reckless attack and death.
/
Technique 13: UpNado (UN) /
Description: Go find a really sharp stick and jab your stomach with it.

// NECROMANCER TECHNIQUES //Video Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LaFHGEFXPGo&list=PLFd-9mPvYmbD02hZjtoeW7_XmgnYRWFpQ&index=3/
Technique 1: Early Entry Spear (EES) /
How to Perform: As soon as you teleport on Druid’s screen, spear the Druid.
Description: Your success rides on how fast you can shoot toward the Druid.
/
Technique 2: Short Moving Spear (SMS) /
Timestamp: 0:01
How to Perform: A core technique in Necromancer vs. Druid battles, countering the Druid’s
TeleNado (TN).
Description: The Druid’s counter to this is
TeleTeleNado (TTN). Further details on counters to
Long-Moving Spear (LMS) and
Tele Moving Spear (TMS) are provided below.
/
Technique 3: Long Moving Spear (LMS) /
Timestamp: 0:22
How to Perform: After the Druid’s second teleport during a
TeleTeleNado (TTN), move and cast a long spear.

Pre-emptive TeleNado (PETN), as discussed in the Druid techniques section.
/
Technique 4: Tele Moving Spear (TMS) /
Timestamp: 0:35
How to Perform: Follow the Druid’s first teleport and distance with a moving spear after their second teleport.
Description: An alternative response to the Druid’s
TeleTeleNado (TTN).
/
Technique 5: Wait Spear (WS) /
Timestamp: 0:45
How to Perform: Lock onto the Druid’s name while you are on the same screen before their teleport. Cast a spear timed to hit the Druid’s next teleport location.
Description: This takes advantage of predicting the Druid's teleport location.
/
Technique 6: Chase - Yes Name Lock (CYN) /
Timestamp: 0:54
How to Perform: After successfully landing a spear, assess the Druid’s remaining health and summons, then use the locked name to chain spears and teleports to pressure them.
/
Technique 7: Chase - No Name Lock (CNN) /
Timestamp: 1:30
How to Perform: Pursue the Druid without locking their name, using teleports and spears to pressure them while they regroup or resummon.
/
Technique 8: Pre-movement Spear (PMS) /
Timestamp: 2:01
How to Perform: Tele/walk preemptively before the Druid teleports onto your head, making it difficult for them to land their teleport accurately.
Description: Forces the Druid into teleport errors by disrupting their timing.
/
Technique 9: Early Entry Spear Short Moving Spear (EESSMS) /
Timestamp: 2:09
How to Perform: Initiate with a spear, then follow up with a
short-moving spear (SMS). This catches the Druid by surprise and provides a timing window to deal damage even if they use
TeleTeleNado (TTN).
Description: Often used when the Necromancer takes the initiative rather than responding to the Druid’s attack.
/
Technique 10: UpSpear (US) /
Description: Here is a sack of nuts that hang loose one foot. Lick it 1000 times for big reward!!!!
