Also, if you attract a (Holy) Hammer, Sword, or Serrated Shiv with an ACME Magnet, you aren't ever affected by the side-effects. (Note that you won't move 2-3 spaces forward for the Magnet use.)

Strengths

 * Druid is versatile, able to change to adapt to the situation with relative ease and haste.
 * Can affect other players at close range and at a distance.
 * Able to pounce on an unfortunate opponent with the ferocity of nature.

Weaknesses

 * Druid's actives can be a bit difficult to use for killing other players. Only the Bear/Snake actives can land you on a nearby player's space, and you have to get really close (within 2-4 spaces).
 * Constant changing of forms is required to get the most out of Druid, which may leave the player stuck on cooldowns when they need to adapt to a situation on the spot.

Strategies

 * If an opponent is going to skip their next turn, you can usually chain the effect for the turn after that with Human: Entangling Roots.
 * Crow and Wolf forms are generally used alternately for optimal space gain, whereas the other forms are more aggressive towards opponents.
 * A well-timed Energize and/or Nature's Swiftness can result in a surge of spaces gained.
