Generally speaking, Darkseid had excellent self-control. Most of the time, he could be considered calm—at least far calmer than Yuga Khan.
Yuga Khan had been nothing but a brute. His son had a bit more of a warrior's air, but judging by his past exploits, Uncle Darkseid could hardly be called a tactician.
What normal person used the same tactics every time they invaded Earth?
First came an overwhelming swarm of Parademons for reconnaissance. Then his elite subordinates led the Legion in an all-out assault. After that, Darkseid himself went looking for the Justice League—or, more precisely, Superman—for a duel? Only to be defeated time and again by other "mortals"?
Once or twice would have been fine, but doing it every single time was ridiculous. The moment anyone heard it was a Darkseid Invasion, they knew to guard against Parademons and wait for the decisive battle.
If that counted as tactics, then Aquaman could be called a Master Tactician.
This time, Uncle Darkseid had changed his tactics. It was a roundabout sort of plan, but overall, it was the same old thing with a different wrapping. The only difference was that the chessboard had become larger.
Still, fewer changes were a good thing for Su Ming.
As mentioned before, Darkseid was fairly calm most of the time. If possible, he was even willing to play along with things like "warrior's honor."
But Deathstroke, who knew intelligence from his previous life, and Deadpool, who had somehow acquired intelligence of his own, had brought up matters concerning the New Gods and called them bastards. Darkseid found that a little hard to take.
As everyone knew, during Yuga Khan's era, there had been no such term as New Gods, because they were simply gods.
Whether it was Genesis, Apokolips, or other nations within
