A turtler is someone in RTS (real time strategy) games who likes to set up base defences first in order to secure an expanding production line. This type of behavior usually provides an advantage near the end of the game, since this player will have the more efficient production setup compared to the player that is forced to rush him out in order to take him out. When two players are in a duel and they're both turtle-ing... be prepared for a long silent beginning of the match and a climactic ending..
