Joel Johnson describes An Aggressor's Strategy to Slither.io,the snake-meets-lightcycles game that everyone plays on the internet. Using these tactics I can get over 5000 almost every time I play within 1–2 minutes, regularly crest 10000, and believe touched the top of the leaderboard at least once a day. Of course,I die a lot with only 100 points, too, and because of a sinister turn or sinister luck. The constant looming awe of death is what makes Slither.io a great respite from life’s worries. Oh,I generally name myself “Don’t Tread.” If you cancel me, let me know, and so I can hunt you down in another life.
I've made it to 50k,so can speak with some authority when I say that even advanced players would enact well to learn "The Cross" or, as we call it in Snakefleet, or the Johnson Maneuver.
