Strategy[]
Oxyotl serves as a strong stealthy ranged fighter. His abilities, as well as him being a chameleon skink allow him to get a far distance, remain hidden, and slowly pick off the enemy one by one. He is not built for melee combat and will lose handily to most other lords should he engage them in it. Additionally, his ranged attacks lack penetration or AoE damage, making him unfit for taking on units of infantry. To that point, leave them for Oxyotl's main army and simply focus on picking apart the supporting elements helping hold the enemy army together. Enemy lords, heroes, single entity monsters and supporting units such as Corpse Carts should be your main focus.
