About Ascent

Ascent is a two-lane map where both lanes are active at the same time. The good news is that both lanes are long, and they finish near each other at the bottom right. That gives you a natural plan: hold the early rounds near the start of each lane, then build your real kill zone where the two lanes come together near the exits.

Put a Dart Monkey and your hero near the start of the left lane, then a second cheap tower on the right lane. A Sub 2-0-0 and a Boomerang or Tack at a bend carry the early rounds. Get camo detection by round 24 (Village 0-2-0 or a 3-0-1 Sub), then build a Bomb Shooter 0-3-2 MOAB Mauler or a Destroyer for the first MOAB on round 40. Finish with a Perma-Spike on the bottom-right platform.
