			'''Bia'''

			Apollo may have a hard time against Bia. However, a careful Apollo player can avoid double attacks from Bia. This is a fair matchup with equal chance for both side.

	This would be a fun matchup. Both of the gods are waiting for the opponent to move up so that they can pull the opponent off a higher level. In the late game, the winning strategy mentioned above can no longer work on Minotaur since Minotaur movement is hard to be blocked. Anyway, Apollo has an advantage since his movement is more flexable and useable than Minotaur.		This would be a fun matchup.

	Apollo’s power is also unstoppable in the late game. For example, there are all level-2’s on the 3x3 space on the bottom right corner. Apollo’s workers are on C3 and E2, while the opponent workers are on D2 and E3. Normally it would be hard for you to win since the opponent is standing at the center of all level-2’s, that is, your opponent can always move up to the level-3 you newly built. However, Apollos can simply swap the worker at C3 and D2, and secure a win by building at the corner.		Apollo’s power is also unstoppable in the late game.

	Thus, your opponent would feel it hard to stop you from cornering up the winning position. Other than this, your opponent would also feel very challenging to corner up their winning position. Using the same example setup with Apollo’s workers at C3 and D3, while opponent’s workers at D2 and E2, with a level-3 at the corner. In this case, Apollo can dome the winning position by swapping with the D2 worker. Thus, Apollo is very powerful in the late game, in both attacking and defensive ways.
