How to Fight Titans

Facing a T5 Titan without a plan is how demo scenarios snowball into losses. This guide focuses on denial, kiting, and map weapons rather than mirror Titan races.

Scout Early, Panic Late

Titans broadcast themselves: huge build time, audio/visual tells, and a crater of Flux spent. Keep radar and air scouts alive. If you only learn about a Titan when it walks into your base, you already lost the economic race.

Starve the Build

Raid extractors and reclaim fields near the enemy experimental yard. A Titan that finishes on a collapsing Flux net often idles without support units — easy prey for artillery.

Use the Map Against It

  • Trigger weather Freeze to lock supporting fleets or open unexpected armor routes onto the Titan’s flanks.
  • Aim superweapon Shatter under the Titan’s approach path or production bay when the shot is available.
  • Force fights into chokepoints where Attack Move blobs can focus fire without being enveloped.

Never Trade Fair

Equal-tech tanks trading into a Titan is a donation. Bring experimental counters, layered AA if the Titan has air screens, and keep your King-Piece threatening a base trade so the enemy must choose between finishing the Titan and saving their commander.

When to Build Your Own

If you successfully deny theirs and your economy is healthy, a answering Titan can end the game — see the Titans mechanics page for funding steps. Otherwise finish with commander hunts and eco leads.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers to the most common questions.

Should beginners race Titans?

No. Learn flux and commander safety first; Titans punish greed.

Best faction vs Titans?

Depends on patch. Start with your strongest experimental line and the tier list for demo context.

Do Freeze and Shatter work on Titans?

They reshape the battlefield Titans walk on — use them to trap or strand support, not as guaranteed one-shots.
