Take a shot every time I complain about ammo. When you're drunk enough consider helping me out on patreon.com/axelottol Food prices are crazy these days :(

Imagine if you were Iguazu and you got a big badass mech to finally kill 621... and he shows up in your old mech and destroys you with it.

Kate, Allmind’s Vtuber model 💀

Iguazu: "What makes you special!!" 621 in Iguazu's AC: "Skill."

I did this same challenge, calling it the "Skill Issue Challenge," and really found myself struggling on all mind for hours. Eventually it became sort of a personal journey where I started to relate to Iguazu and his feelings of not being good enough. It went from laughing at the guy to a personal mission to do it, just to tell him that he was *always* good enough, he just needed to recognize what he had while he had it.

"This ghost of me wont last long, leave a spot for me in hell" this game is just full of bad-ass lines, im in love with it

I used the Iguazu to destroy the Iguazu.

Heads up for anyone struggling on the final boss! You can safely ignore the drones that support Iguazu in favor of focusing him down. They all self destruct once you get his health down past a certain point.

Unironically, I love Iguazu. Or really I love all the characters of Armored Core, even the annoying brat ones like Iguazu and Snail. Their voice actors gave so much charm to the characters. I wish there were more alternative endings, like one where you could side with the Redguns and learn more about their members

5:52 The reason the indicator for G4's dizzy comes in so late is because of how the firing stance works on tank builds. Basically if he is already either firing or charging any of his other weapons, then he's already in firing stance so the launcher has next-to-no delay from "pressing the button" to actually firing. Giving no time for the warning indicator.

Iguazu actually does have an assault armour expansion starting from watchpoint alpha and onwards, in grid 086, and in the Institute city as well. Shame we only get to use his weaker version from the dam mission.

He killed the student pilot cause he didn’t want competition.

I never realized how good Cyberpunk 2077 music fits this game until I heard it in the intro. I actually enjoyed Iguazu's character being salty that he keeps losing to us and actually was amazed with the final boss reveal. Great video btw!

Looking into the AC data presets, Iguazu is holding himself back by trying to be a cooler Trainer AC. No joke, there are only 3 differences: he is using C3 Melander instead of normal Melander, using Ming tang instead of Yaba, and adding a Pulse shield. C3 is overall a more efficient set for a lighter, faster build. But the generator and pulse shield brings Headbringer to the same speed as the Tester AC, with only a better generator and ability to reduce damage to show for it. While being 800 AP weaker. All the parts needed to improve on his AC are Balam/Dafeng parts too, and they're just upscaled versions of his current gear. I Swapped the Curtis for a Harris, the ludlow for a changchen, the 4 cell launcher for a 10 cell launcher, and slapped the P06SPD on there and it's noticably better. It has almost twice as much total firepower and can strafe faster than his AC can QB. Also, I actually tried using this improved setup against Volta and Iguazu, didn't even add a core expansion to it either, and, after 6 tries, I was able to beat them, though I did have some help from the Tetrapod MT, but they ganged up on it and tore it apart pretty quickly and they really stayed on my @ss the whole time so I rarely ever managed to split them up. I used up all 3 repair kits, used up roughly half my ammo, and had 5k AP left. The pulse shield was actually what saved me on my last attempt, reducing Volta's DPS and impact advantage over me while my MG was reloading. That's how close Iguazu was to actually having a solid AC. That. And having a core expansion. Assault armor would have made the fight much easier. I might test that. Update: can confirm, with assault armor I beat them in 1 go, used up less ammo, ended with more AP, and didn't even need the Tetrapod. Iguazu's refusal to use an expansion is definately the word part of his build.

Iguazu you are (not) a disappointment

At 12:00 I think another reason why Balteus is easier on later playthroughs is the fact that with the OS upgrades you take less damage, and cause more damage with your weapons, not to mention having better parts it's not just the nerfs to his missile tracking.

Alternative title: beating Iguazu with his own build so he can't claim you're cheating or hacking, just straight up better than him

I believe that after he upgrades during the fight with V2 Snail he uses a different Generator, but other than that awesome video, I’ve been playing the missions back and even PvPing with G5 so this was super fun to watch

Thank You. You've really proved that Iguazu could of been "a protagonist" if he really put his mind to it and focused. If you feel like you've done everything you need to with AC6, consider trying Daemon X Machina. Armoured Core's awkward cousin.

Epic! The Ludlow and Curtis both get slept on HARD. The Curtis is actually my go-to primary!

You said you kept getting hit, but often during fights you have a full energy bar.. even if quickboosting isn't as effective as normal, I'd still recommend using it a lot more. Also you lost efficiency when killing MTs by running away and not actually destroying them. You can do that, but I'd recommend strafing round to eliminate them rather than ignoring them. Great video! Congrats on beating Iguazu as Iguazu using Iguazu!

Iguazu is by far my favorite character from this game so it made my day to see this.

Why does cyberpunk jam so well with AC gameplay?

i remember looking at iguasu's build just to laugh at it, but when i saw how awful it was i couldn't help but feel sad for him. he becomes so obessed and scornful for raven he forgets how to even make a build

I love watching the skilled players showing you can beat the game with any semi coherent build, that you don't need an optimal one if you put the time in to hone your play.

Still want that laser greatsword

now... you COULD argue that the run is invalid since you used the Stun Needle in the worm fight. because you CAN actually deploy without the Stun Needle and still do the fight. but still in the spirit of the run and everything, well done. it was no small feat doing these runs with one specific AC design. I can imagine some of them would literally be impossible. (Ziyi run anyone? xD)

Do an invincible rummy run to beat the game with only that present.

Bruv. First 2 min of this video had no business going as hard as it did. PERFECT music choice for Iguazu's arc

The Iguazu clone which defends Snail must of been the clone that you forgot to eliminate when you awkwardly teamed up with during the cease fire between Arquebus and Ballam to take down the PCA's Coral Worm. After being "volunteered" for the front line he finally was tired of dealing with G1 Michigan's shit and defunct to Arquebus in which is why he's featuring a laser-orbiter (After maintenance repairs with Arquebus, he had to make some major changes to his AC to be compatible with Arquebus's much higher standards than Ballam's low-grade tech solutions, one of which was to replace the long depreciated pulse shield system and upgraded to their autonomous laser drone missile defense system)

13:43 He did it! He said the thing.

Great content, as always!

I honestly don't think it would be possible with Iguazu's final boss varient, it's just so weak in that phase.

I just love how you added Cyberpunk 2077 music to it, especially Firestarter

Did an Iguazu playthrough about 1-2 weeks ago, the build is surprisingly decent, but had to actually learn some fights due to how slow the damage output is. Wonder if this vid ended up with the same playstyle or if something was slightly different. Edit: Actually played through both Ayre and ALLMIND endings, and Ayre gave me so much trouble, more than ALLMIND, was kind of looking forward to seeing that :( Also the true ending precludes you from going against Michigan, which is what G5 has always wanted, that was a fun mission too.

Man, your intro is sick 👏

IGUAZU IS THE BEST ENEMY CHARACTER IN ALL AC SERIES

I identified a critical problem with Iguazu's built the moment I saw it; He has the full auto weapon that can't charge behind a shield, behind a shield. If you swapped the Curtis and Ludlow around, his build would become 120% better. Cause you can fire off the Ludlow from behind a shield while charging the Curtis, which doesn't drop the shield, and then you can pop off curtis charge shots where you want. When firing basic curtis shots, you can back off and not need the shield as much due to distance, which the Ludlow suffers at.

I’m on NG+ right now and honestly Iguazu is more of a distraction that makes Volta more deadly than he actually is. I like lightweight, high firepower builds, so I’m almost the opposite of Iguazu’s Head Bringer. It looks like a decent build for the early missions, lacks any firepower for the harder guys further into the game

I'm so happy that Armored Core and Cyberpunk hold a shared happy existence in my heart, make me happy hearing the theme you chose for the intro ❤❤ Edit: While I'm here, if anyone can give pointers on making an Arasaka-Themed mech, I'm all ears 😅

now this is a good video

Looks awesome, you should do nightfall Raven next

I think you could´ve easily change some parts of your AC throughout with parts that Iguazu had during the game while he was still alone and not part of allming. That would´ve still made sense in this scenario.

The shield Iguazu has is pretty good at normal guarding, so you don't really need to bet on that 0.2 second of IG frame if you're not confident in parrying. Also, there's a Curtis charged shot> kick> charged shot again combo, which is pretty decent considering how lacking it is for any source of burst damage this build has... For anyone out there who wants to improve upon NPC builds, here are some advices: Switch the Curtis to the left hand, raise your shield to cover yourself whenever you're going for the charged shots (charging left hand weapons does NOT cancel out shielding animation) while laying down constant suppressive fire with your Ludlow (or just use Chang-chen, for more sustainable fire and more ammo counts). Switch the missiles to heavier version, or use the split missiles for their massive impact damage, or go for the dual missiles if you prefer aerial combat. Use the aforementioned combo to quickly rack up the damage. And remember to add some core abilities (I recommend Terminal Armor, for thematic purposes). HEADBRINGER is, by all means, NOT a bad AC. With proper reconfiguration and right techniques, it can truly shine brighter than how it is right now. Once again this kinda shows who Iguazu really is: A half-decent pilot whose build is better at bullying those who are weaker than him, but struggles a lot when fighting someone stronger.

"Can you beat AC6 as an Envious Hater"

I actually thought of doing this but my friend said it wasnt possible cant wait to see his face

One of the ever interesting things to note of g5. The v.2 edition. Laser drone and ALLMIND arms after he grows salty over 621's growing fame Other pepole of course get the other three core parts of ALLMIND's set. v.III keefe gets the headpeice. RLF's shinobi guy gets the chest, and sulla gets the legs. It just happens g5 gets the rest of the set as mind gamma when he becomes super salty he didnt win his ambush and joins ALLMIND for the coral release for a round 3 chance

You should try to do the campaign as Walter in the Hal. I’ve been trying it and it’s an interesting challenge. Probably easier than this

Finally, the iguazu gameplay

I like this type of run with other characters AC's. Walter maybe after Nightfall?

Man, your voice is _so_ familiar, you sound like someone but I can't remember who. Love the content, though! Definitely gonna stick around

It's like the one Jet Li movie where he un-alive his alternate versions of him but with Mechs.

10:00 ok damn, Ive never seen Kate take out one of the EKDROMOI before... what a high roll...

What is the song at the very start of the intro? The entire intro goes so unbelievably hard I adore it

Iguazu assembly is quite balanced But weapons are too weak

🎉But seriously beat the game with invincible rummy only it will be awesome🎉

Actually Iguazu AC is pretty cancer if you force short range skirmishes until ACSOver then shoot with the linear, but its heavily dependant in a single play style that needs TO MUCH time polishing even more using his wepons(you can change them for better versions to get yourself goin and after understanding the basics, partially reverts back to the original, its actually fun :) ) Im glad if this helps anyone who tries G5 Builld

As if his inferiority complex wasn’t bad enough.

what's the song in the ALLMIND boss fight?

But can you beat the game as Iguana while listening to painful noises any time Ayre speaks, for the true experience

you should beat the game as raven next

Idea: Can You Beat AC6 as Cinder Carla?

Next try and beat AC6 as G1 Michigan

Ok but why does Cyberpunk 2077 theme work so well for Iguazu?

if yo uhad trouble with accuracy, i suggest free locking instead of hard locking. that way you have more accuracy in your shots but have to manage your aiming.

Man if this is possible then Iguazu's got some real skill issues

Can you beat it as gun 13 design spec?

24:02 Btw ALLMIND is definitely doable without changing to his convergence counterpart in phase 1 you can ignore the drone and focus only on her, iguazu build has enough mobility and kite range to do that, just beware the annoying knife guy phase 2 is exactly as you said in the video if you can parry his attack constantly you'll be fine and the difficulty of this phase came from how much allmind's spiders pay attention to you anyway phase 3 is also the same minus spiders, but you also have to doge big attack since it usually go through shield It maybe hard but still doable AND steelhaze orthus is ALSO doable in arquebus balteus fight stop calling it bad it just have different play style

Cyberpunk soundtracks go hard Anyone knows the song he use for the cataphract

I thought that shield was only good if you parry with it instead of holding.

It’s called ludlow

yeaaaah, this duo is incredibly difficult conpared to so many other missions. I don't know why, it is just a stagger fest impossible to dodge everything. When I was using the curtis I noticed The charge shot is more of a finisher. It has a TON of stagger, often times 50-70% of the bar. But a big portion of it is temporary and decays in a second. The machine gun... Has never had enough ammo for the damage it does.. Really sad because I love the gun. Maybe I need to go back with the duo of Curtis and SMG instead.

So it turns out, without a doubt, unequivocally, that the thing that seperated us from each, was a skill issue.

Just proves its less of an ac issue an just his skill issue

What's the intro music?

I kinda hope the result is no xD Just to spite Iguazu

Can you beat iguazu as iguazu?

Iguazu's AC is called head bringer not head hunter

You say his build sucks but a few modifications would have made him a real threat. Moral of the story? Rage less, tinker more.

"What makes you so special?" In all seriousness, its because we enjoy AC combat. Its clear iguazu doesnt.

Iguazu vs Iguazu comes down to who has the bigger hater energy

great i now rememebr the gabriel and tohru memes from back when. someone do shit like that with g5's voice

Still waiting on how to zeta (3 months)

His ac is not bad, just average...

Was a 140 second intro really necessary ?

That’s not a parry shield

no, he's literally a loser. But you can beat end game Iguazu with it because he's a loser. But if you can do that to the end game final boss, that means you can beat the game with it. But that's only because you're not Iguazu.

I whined a lot and still beat the game so yeah I guess it’s possible

hey buddy I just want you to know that I did this without using the stun needle on ice worm step up

Iguazu's AC isn't even that bad, he i just bad at the game...

Head *Bringer*, not Headhunter. And Ludlow is pronounced "ludd-lo", not "lood-lau".

G5 such a looser

I hate ayre even more now...

I still hate iguazu

>english dub immediately clicked off your video after making this comment

Please can you do a run using Walter's AC?

Do it as Walters AC
