Suicide-attacks are the only way to attack in Kami. Kamikaze is the main weapon of the game and it needs to be well applied because worms have 50HP, so if you hit a worm, it will not be enough to kill it and you will need to drown it, take advantage of the Fall Damage, use the Kamikaze's explosion or wait for the Sudden Death poison reduce the hp. Low Gravities are useful to move and launch worms to the water, Teleports can be used to attack (telecide), however they are more useful to escape from the Sudden Death flooding, which begins early. The Select Worms are much more useful during the Sudden Death, when it is impossible to choose worms in the hotseat time.
Rules
In case of a tied end, the player who last used kamikaze (also "telecide") will be the winner
History
Kami was created by Twyrfher in May 2008 [dead link] (released also here by the same time), thinking about creating a short duration scheme specialized in Kamikaze after playing an Elite game.
Competitive events
The scheme has featured consistently in competitions, appearing in most years of the Worm Olympics from 2008 to 2015, and in cups hosted on The Ultimate Site in 2011.
