Pixies should be upgraded to Sprites as soon as possible, since Pixies don't have the ability of disallowing retaliation, therefore being almost useless in a battle. The main tactic for Sprites is to wait in the first turn, attack at the end and retreat next turn. This allows them to retain numbers while dealing much damage, at least in the early game. They can also be used as a decoy against relatively slow units to allow the [[Storm Elemental|Storm Elementals]] and/or [[Ice Elemental|Ice Elementals]] to finish them by ranged attacks.

Against Sprites, you should prioritize killing them if they come in really big numbers or are a threat to your shooters, especially in the early game. However, once having received a full attack from a decent enemy troop, this unit perishes easily, its numbers going down faster than you would expect. If their numbers are low, you should instead concentrate on other threats, like [[Storm Elemental|Storm Elementals]], for example. Sometimes AI plays with Pixies which makes a battle freebie, since prior to their upgrade, Pixies are unsuitable for anything. Possibly the only situation in which you aren't obliged to turn them into Sprites is when you play for [[Necropolis]] and get Pixies, as [[Skeleton Transformer]] turns both units into [[Skeleton]]s. | Against Sprites, you should prioritize killing them if they come in really big numbers or are a threat to your shooters, especially in the early game.
