Editing Wall (section)

==Strategy==
'''{{PAGENAME}}''' is the higher {{ticon|health}}[[Health]] {{ticon|block}}[[blocker]] of the [[base set]]; its {{ticon|prompt}}[[Prompt]] makes it especially useful to patch your defense. Its {{ticon|health|3}} Health allows it to [[absorb]] up to {{ticon|attack}}2 [[attack|damage]] and stay alive, making it is the best absorber of the [[basic set]] alongside [[Steelsplitter]].

{{PAGENAME}}s alone, however, do not make for a good {{ticon|block}}[[defense]] as they do not provide [[defensive granularity]]. In this situation, your opponent [[offensive finesse|can deny]] your {{PAGENAME}}'s absorb by only attacking in multiples of 3. Combining Walls with [[Engineer]]s and other defenders of different {{ticon|health}}Health values allows you to block any amount of {{ticon|attack}}damage effectively.

{{PAGENAME}} can also be used to block immediately and die, once your opponent has enough damage for you to lose a {{PAGENAME}} and still absorb for maximum on another {{PAGENAME}} (or a bigger absorber such as [[Doomed Wall]]). Walls are the best base set unit for this role as well, not just for absorbing.

As a rule, try to build {{ticon|prompt}}Prompt {{ticon|block}}blocker units only when you need their {{ticon|health}}Health to make it up for your defense. Building [[preventive defense]] with {{ticon|block}}block units without {{ticon|prompt}}Prompt is way more efficient as most of these units can provide you more {{ticon|attack}}attack ([[Shredder]]) or more {{ticon|health}}health for their cost ([[Infusion Grid]]).
