Firstly, thanks for adding the battle link!
Those Maggots are proving to be pretty useful.
So... right now Maggots have 'opportunity'. This means it will strike at the WEAKEST player on the other team... at ANY TIME. It's like he has sneak and snipe and is able to attack from anywhere at any time.
Keeping the maggots protected (generally in the 3rd and 4th spots) allows them to live longer and 'finish off' the other team.
Ya got lucky this time as there wasn't anything aiming for the 2nd spot. Normally, I like to put something smooshy there (something with high health to take hits).

So glad you're having fun playing! Me too!
