    What should I do if a larger snake won't leave me alone?

    Your best bet is to try and quickly get them out when they don't expect it. Alternatively, just try to safely speed away from them.
  • Question
    Are there any other methods?

    Start by eating smaller snakes and you will keep getting bigger. When you reach the size of at least 3000, start trapping the snakes in a circle and eating them. Keep doing it and you will be at the top of leader boards.
  • Question
    How can I avoid getting killed in a mad rush after a fresh kill?

    Try to avoid speeding and going in head first. If you are big enough, circle around as much mass as you can so nobody else can take it. But be careful, sometimes large snakes take advantage of the mad rush and circle everybody.

    How can I avoid dying if I am on the leaderboard and I move too slowly to get out of an attack?

    Make your own "circle," but be sure to keep your head inside it. Keep circling around yourself until the chaos dies down.
  • Question
    How do I kill other snakes?

    Community Answer
    You kill other snakes by speeding to cut off people, making them run into your body. If you are big enough, circle around smaller snakes.
  • Question
    How do I get lots of mass in one go?
    Community Answer
    Depending on your definition of "lots of mass," it's generally better to get some mass and circle around it. Try not to greedily acquire more in your circle, as you already have some guaranteed for yourself. If you have to boost for more than a couple seconds, it's generally not good to do so, especially around larger kills, as they a spread over a larger area and attract more snakes. Overall, do it when you think you can, but try to avoid confrontation with others to increase your chances of survival.
  • Question
    If I go head-to-head with another snake smaller than I, will I be reduced to dots or will the other be reduced?

    It depends upon the angle of impact; otherwise, smaller snakes have a disadvantage.
  • Question
    How do I get the total mass that I kill?
    Coleenmack
    Community Answer
    Just be sure to collect all of it fast. If not, the mass will disappear. Other than that, there is no way to get the most mass you can.
  • Question
    How do I kill snakes that are significantly larger than me?

    It is quite risky, so try and build up your snake first. When your snake is long enough, try and corner the large snakes or pop up when they won't expect it (e.g. when they are are eating a snake's mass). Corner them so they have no escape; if possible, try and see if any other snakes will help. Try pressing the triangle button (next to the map) to make your snake go faster. Bear in mind that if you are trying to get a really long snake out, chances are slim.

    How do I stop lag on slither.io?
    Community Answer
    You can't really stop lag, but you can stay on the edges and use Chrome to help yourself.
  • Question
    If I am a smaller snake, and I hit a big one, what would happen?
    Noob_Killa
    Community Answer
    If you mean head on, you would die. It depends on if you are boosting, though, because if you boost but the other doesn't, you would live.
  • Question
    If I am being circled, how can I keep myself from dying?
    FunTime FunWorldTM
    Community Answer
    You really can't. Once someone circles you smaller and smaller until you crash into them, you just die. I they stick their head inside, you can try going towards the head and forcing them to crash into you. Or if you're lucky, they just crash into another Slither.
  • Question
    What if a larger snake circles me?
    Ruby
    Top Answerer
    Try to escape while you still can. You can use the triangle button above the map to speed away. Once the gap closes there isn't much you can do. You could try to get the other snake out or see if anyone else will get them out for you. The only thing you can do to maximise your snake's life is to coil round in a circle as small as you can.
  • Question
    How do you grow larger?
    Ruby
    Top Answerer
    You grow larger by eating the glowing dots. Eating the mass of a dead snake can increase your snake's size significantly.
  • Question
    How do I escape a circling?
    ICSIH
    Community Answer
    Create your own "circle", but don't circle anything. If the snake tries to make the circle any smaller, they will hit you can die. Chances are, the snake will get bored and go away, and you can escape.
  • Question
    How can you kill another snake without circling around a snake? I find circling tricky.
    ICSIH
    Community Answer
    If you are going to kill a small snake, go to a place where you see the small snake at the edge of your view. Smaller snakes have a smaller field of view than you, so they don't see you. They speed up and run right in front of them, and then they will run into you.
  • Question
    I have tried to sneak up on big snakes from behind and they just circle around when they see me, so I cannot get them.
    ICSIH
    Community Answer
    This is because bigger snakes have a bigger field of view than you. So they can see you even if you can't see them.
  • Question
    How do I escape out of a large snake circle?
    RobloxStudioKing
    Community Answer
    Try slithering in a circle, too. The big snake will have a hard time making you run into them, while trying to avoid running into you. If you are successful, they will either die or give up.
  • Question
    What if a snake tries to squish me against the border or and other snake?

    Community Answer
    Hold down space to quickly zoom ahead of them, getting out of the situation as soon as possible.
  • Question
    Can you kill a snake that has circled you? Once another snake killed the snake that trapped me.
    RobloxStudioKing
    Community Answer
    Yes, you can kill a snake trapping you. You just need to find a way to make the snake accidentally run into you.
  • Question
    Why do the smaller snakes keep following me? Is it because they want to kill me?
    RobloxStudioKing
    Community Answer
    Yes, small snakes tend to follow you around to either pick up the mass when someone kills you, or kill you themselves.
