In Slither, collect safely until your length can control an area, then use curves and positioning rather than reckless head-on moves. Leave enough space inside a coil to react, and watch the minimap and nearby acceleration trails for approaching threats. Boosting spends mass and reduces turning margin, so use it for a clear escape or controlled interception. For lag or collision reports, include server region, size, client, network latency, timestamp, and exact contact geometry.
