Marines

-Buy a welder from the armory
It only is 3 personal resourses so get it and remember to weld you teammates
Armory will only give you health so welder is crutial to keep those armor levels up

-Stick in a group
When your in a group you can cover others and the other way too
When higher lifeforms come out you need more shots to kill them so a group is good on that
Spread out a bit but not too much so you can easily cover eachother

-Use the range
Marines have ranged weapons so long hallways are good to get some shots in before their in your face
Pistol does better damage from a far since it has much smaller spread than the riffle

-Move sideways
Don't backup since it is slow, do it by strafing
Or look back and jump fast then look at the enemy again

Aliens

-Skulk
Jump on the walls and floor to keep up momentum bunnyhopping is used by jumping from the walls and floor
Hide above, since there is so few people that look above when they enter a room
Always check your upgrades (b for evolve) after you die, they cost nothing for skulks

-Lerk
Umbra, use it, it reduses the damage taken by blocking some shots (1/4 if I remember correctly)
Use hit and run tacktics since the lerk is weak against groups
Late game support by lerks is pretty effective so stick with a group and support them

-Gorge
Build clogs to block marines from entering a room or to block shots against a structure
Hydras can do some damage to attackers but you should be near to heal those
Use healspray, your 2nd attack button, it helps build structures and heals nearby units
Bilebomb is effective against marine structures and can help out clear bases
Don't go too far alone since your attacks aren't that powerfull

-Fade
Jump, blink, go urround things, use the mobility
Hit and run tactics are effective
Agains riffles just use the mobility and get a swipe here and there
Against shotguns you realy need to be carefull since those will melt your health if shot close range

-Onos
If your health goes bellow 1000 run away to heal!
Your big and strong but such a big target
