HUGE props to Rain for sharing this lower MMR match and helping folks out! What key tip would you give to a beginner player? MECHA DISCORD - discord.gg/5UFmpdckzm SUB HERE for more - kzfaq.info

Thank you so much my brother! I'm sure this will be super helpful for new players, as it was for me. It's been an honor to be featured in your commentary!

My top 3 new player tips: 1: Electromag is the fun police. 2: Memes can win even if they lose. 3: Chicken nuggets?

My tip is it to play to your specialists strengths and plan to counter your opponents specialist. I didn't do this when I started and lost many games

I think Cobrak mentioned it already, MORE CHAFF!! The more chaff and chaff diversity, the better. Typically I use crawlers in the beginning more in my backline and throughout the match i add Fangs to the front and then spec them with shields (if there is no fire on the board). My second piece of advice from me would be to learn which units counter each other. This will help drive the decision making for what units to go with. There are Mechabellum Unit Matrices online to help with that, just google for them. For example, the unit card on round 2 had only two valid choices in my option. First choice: Phoenix to counter sledgehammers and arclights. Second choice: Mustang to build a generic board and have good chaff clear or anti-air potential (based on tech selection). The Wraith IMO is only good when you are attacking aggro or defending against aggro, even then it's only in specific cases. Using the wraith is standard positioning typically doesn't work and gets quickly countered by a phoenix or a marksman. My third tip is to not be afraid to sell units and switch into a different unit. Sometimes you placed a unit wrong or the unit just gets countered to fast, sell it, buy it again and place it somewhere else or buy a different unit to counter your enemy. Leaving a unit to just die and give your enemy free XP, will never work.

Some sub-1000 MMR tips: It's okay to put down a high level unit card, play a round and let your opponent invest in a counter and then sell it next round. Find a way to apply EMP, my favorite is marksmen: it counters "raid boss" units by slowing them and stealing their tech. Rapid fire on high-level marksmen is a great choice: it increases their effective DPS because they overkill by 1/2 as much - it's essentially doubling your marksmen. Don't overinvest in an army with a single counter, for instance an army of chaff and mustangs. Just a bit of fire will counter your whole army in one round. It's great to misdirect your enemy. My favorite strategy right now is to set up an aggressive ball strategy in the first two rounds and then spend the next few rounds building a balanced marksmen and chaff army behind it. My opponent finally counters the balls and I promptly sell them, spending money on a counter for their counter.

Thank you for this!!! been looking for a vid like this for a long time, only had outdated vids from Surrey to go off of

Did you lose a round? Why did you lose? Did you win a round? What can your opponent do to win next round? Mecha can be a bit thinky

Exactly the type of guide video i was looking for! 10/10, subscribed and recommended to a friend who also plays. Keep it up dude 👍

The one thing that helped me change from losing every game is having tons of chaff. Normally you'd think not building early game units dont matter esp when so many units one shot them but they make a ton of difference both as distraction and as secondary damage.

Hey man, thanks for doing these videos. You're very good at it - keep it up!

thanks for putting this together I just got this game on the last sale and its tremendous !

One thing to mention: you are wrong about chosing Mechanical Rage for tanks because of the speed; speed is "nothing", range is dominating Mechabellum; every unit you don't want to use as chaff needs range (unfortunately) BUT Mechanical Rage is THE tech for tanks, because it improves the fire rate dramatically; tanks become beasts afterwards.

Many thanks for such a video, I believe we need it to strengthen the basis.

Lots and lots of good info in this one!

I assume what the player was thinking with all the tanks is one of the things I'm trying in my gameplay now (about 10 play hours so far) is that you can replace the first line of chaff with tanky units that hit for some good numbers. Giving your second line of chaff some time to be doing damage and not just being obliterated. In this case, the missle battery guys didn't let that work because of the amount of aoe going on. I'll put things like Rinos or the steel balls with armor and Damage share on that front line instead of chaff often. Could be the wrong way but right now it feels good :)

Wow. I had no idea you could sell units. That's such a massive game changer for me.

Thank you for the video! I can't wait to play this game. Your tips will help me start out strong. I have my steam gift card ready. Tomorrow morning i head to the coffee shop to download and start playing.

this game is super fun to be honest. 1st time i play this genre and i play a lot off games... the game is verry cheap for the fun you guet. defe recomend!

Play survival mode vs bot. You will learn about how units interact and helps your decision-making. It's quite different gameplay, but teaches you greatly and fun to play!

Diss agree with your first play it's ok to lose first round your tanks you will give range later so you fangs will walk ahead

Is there any way to view the replay without the information from the opponent? I feel like it's easier to be critical with all the infromation, but we might have made different decisions had we had the same information from the person we're watching's perspective.

Is this still all or mostly valid after the update?

noob question. is it me or is marksmen specialist a bit weak? its not like you get lvl3 marksmen onwards (which would feel still weak but better)

What's a chaff line?

Ok but where are the tips? Half of video is yapping
