Tactics:

Early game (Level 1-7): Balmond is really strong in the early game. If you cleared the line and the jungle, you may visit other lanes to help them kill or to push.

Mid game (Level 8-12: You can begin pushing lanes and killing turtles. You can now engage with team fights because you are now durable. If you are going solo please be careful, always check the map.
