There aren't any necessary tactics for them. Use them as you see fit. Keep in mind that they take only 5% damage from spells (95% Magic Damage reduction).
Since they take only 5% damage from spells, they can be used as the only unit of a hero which has learned Armaggedon, allowing you to sometimes wipe out your enemy's army in one spell, without hurting your own stack too much. There are much better options avaible out there (Namely: Efreets, Black and Gold dragons or Phoenixes), but Diamond Golems can be an option if need be.

Diamond Golem is a level 6 neutral creature that can only be recruited from Golem Factory founded on Adventure Map.

See the Comparison of Level 6 Creatures.

Some may find the information in this section subjective or irrelevant.

Need to fix one or more of these possible problems with the user commentary text:
  • escape equals signs with {{=}} (not including the ones used to create section headings)

Toughness

They have very low defensive stats for a level 6 unit, the lowest health value if we exclude the Enchanter and also the lowest defense.

Offense

The Diamond Golems also have the lowest attack and damage values of a level 6 unit.

Efficiency and cost

Because they can be recruited pretty easily after taking a Golem Factory, and also due to their very low cost, they are units worth having in early game. However, later on they serve only as cannon fodder.

Tactics

Since they take only 5% damage from spells, they can be used as the only unit of a hero which has learned Armaggedon, allowing you to sometimes wipe out your enemy's army in one spell, without hurting your own stack too much. There are much better options avaible out there (Namely: Efreets, Black and Gold dragons or Phoenixes), but Diamond Golems can be an option if need be.
