While the tower rush genre was undeniably popularized and perfected on mobile devices, many gamers despise playing on tiny touchscreens.
They utilize the full power of a keyboard and mouse, allowing for precise unit micro-management and massive, sprawling maps.

- Fast fingers provide a tangible competitive advantage.
- Maps are usually much larger and feature fog of war.
