As a newly homeless man, I yell "Mustangs are OP" at the general public

As a dq worker myself, all I do for the banana split blizzard is just give it off for someone else to do it 😭

Mechabellum looks like what every app add wants you to think their game looks like

I absolutely despise strategy games because I'm stupid and impatient, but boy do I love hearing Bricky talk.

Hey Brick! Currently watching this video on my break while at Dairy Queen funnily enough. To answer your question it's all about adding a small amount of each ingredient and straining the liquid out of the pineapple and strawberry. Glad to hear the Brick himself is a former DQ warrior.

Dude, Mechabellum is so damn good. It feels like such a refined expression of the genre. Hyped as hell to see you cover it, too. You're a legend, Bricky.

Bless you Bricky for spreading the good word of direct strike

You're not alone, Bricky. Merchabellum caused my wife to leave with the kids, glad you are keeping me sane

Ever since I saw the first Armored Core 6 trailer, I've been obsessed with games where big Mechs are the core. I think this video might make it into an addiction.

12:00 I really appreciate the Sam O'Nella academy little meme. I know Sam would like the joke too. Wherever he is

As someone who has always struggled with the micro side of RTS's but loves macro, this sounds perfect for me

I swear bricky is curing my depression with these videos lately

I feel like mech skins could be for like, achieving certain statistics with certain mechs. Rhinos soaking X damage giving you an "Ironclad" skin, something like that. So when you see your opponent deploy some tricked-out looking mech, you immediately get that sinking feeling of "Oh god, they've McFucking Had It"

Bricky went 24 minutes without saying who his new beloved is, and i was getting nervous

I wanna give a shout out to skater for doing the effect of funny deep fried ear rape sounds with the boat segment without actually blowing my ears out. Thank you very much the best duo around keep up the great content!

The one man I blindly trust with game recommendations returns with another banger

Those unit transition screens are gold, please have them in every video where possible

When making a banana split blizzard, the goal is to use less ice cream and be very particular with the amount of topping you do, especially the strawberry since that's the reason it gets so liquidy, you also have to blend it for far less time than a normal blizzard, usually no more than 2 or 3 seconds to maintain the consistency of a normal blizzard

Bricky, no lie, you are my favourite content creator on all platforms at this point. Keep it up!

As someone who plays a TON of Direct Strike, even to this day, at first you had my curiosity. Now you have my attention. I might just buy it now, something that is extremely rare for me in this day and age of gaming

YES, SO HAPPY TO SEE THIS VIDEO!! Can't wait to see more players in game!!

One of my favorite combos I’ve made in my short time with the game is slapping parasitic ammo onto stormcallers. It just basically converts whatever horde they have into a horde of crawlers for me, and if they were slow, now it’s a horde of crawlers in the enemy backline

As someone thats been pioneering and experimenting the Fang Anvil technique in this game, I appreciate the love for the little guy. Constantly people are trying to tell me to step away from them cause they are too weak, yet I am doing decent in tournaments. Like how you said in the video, each loss I know how I messed up and make tweaks to fix it for later. I will say though that the game gets a lot harder 2v2 and its unfortunate to get a teammate that can not hold their weight, its still fun coordinating with another to set up future moves.

Dairy Queen employee here, I just bled that blizzard for about 2.5 seconds while putting in half the amount of ingredients I should. I made that blizzard properly once. Never again.

Honestly, I hate most auto battlers because there's 8+ players with loads of different solved strategies and tons of RNG involved in how the match will play out. Single patches in this genre can completely redefine what's good/bad. It's exhausting. But Mechabellum, being only a 1v1, and always having information on what my opponent is capable of doing. Makes this particular title seem a lot more digestible and fun. So soon after buying Moonbreaker I was going to consider waiting to pick this up too. Expecting another $30-40 price tag. But for only $15 there's no way I can say no. Damn you Bricky for showing 2 great single player time wasters back to back.

Dude I've been playing this game for weeks it's so good! Glad you are again brining the spotlight onto great indie games!

Glad you made another banger with this video! Speaking of Mecha, I hope you are ready for August... Because the true king of Mecha games is finally deploying!

I've been watching Bricky for almost two years, and youtube thought they didnt need to recommend me this video. But this game and videos were literally made for me.

One huge downside of the hacker 21:01 : Anything you take over on the enemy team will get the experience for itself. that one chunky single unit you took that killed everything around it? you just gave it a level Edit: unless they patched it.

I've seen so much gameplay and been on the edge to play this game and bricky just shoved me 20 feet off the cliff thanks brick

This is an excellent game. Truly excellent.

11:10 thats such a good edit i fucking died LOL

so, for the banana split yer ganna want to put only half a ladle and or pump of each into a large and 1/4 or less in any smaller blizzard. you can also try to drain the juices from stuff like the strawberry or pineapple but that's not as reliable during a rush, bonus tip dont blend for to long idk how your ice-cream was but it can make ours more soupy.

I'm also disappointed Bricky didn't make a Steel Ball reference for the Steel Balls

If i recall Paradox ARC is the Publishing Side of Paradox Interactive (The People who made Hearts of Iron IV, Stellaris, Victoria 3, Europa Universalis and Crusader Kings)

I’ve been waiting for this one since I saw the twitter post. Looking forwards to it!

A year later, and they actually did the things Bricky asked for lol

13:46 From what I've learned by watching Beaglerush play this game, Mustangs are really not that OP once you know how to play around them. Meaning, you need to take them seriously and move to counter them/pull them into attacking an inefficient target before they get out of hand. An Arclight with armor will especially mess them up early. There's also the fact that a lot of people are so convinced they're OP that they will knee-jerk buy them, and you can mindgame around that.

"holy fuck its 4 am" he says as i look up and at the clock and realize it is in fact, 4 am

As someone who stopped working at Dairy Queen more recently than you did: the key to flipping a Banana Split blizzard without it falling out is twofold: First, shortchange the customer on their ingredients a bit. Not a lot, just use a little less that full spoons full and "short inches" of banana. You know how it is. Second, do that flip and flip back fast enough that it almost flies out sideways from the speed you flip it. You don't hold that crap upside down. Flip down and up, one smooth motion. If they try to insist you flip it again, you refuse. You flip it once, you make sure they saw you flip it, and if they try to claim they didn't you don't take their shit. If they want to go all Karen on you, if your manager wants to make you redo it, doesn't matter. You don't flip that thing a second time. I guess there's a third, too: don't let the blizzard sit and melt. If you can't give them the Split blizzard almost straight from the mixer, it goes in the freezer in the meantime.

Just want to say thanks to Bricky for another great recommendation. Loved playing Moonbreakers and now I'm really enjoying Mechabellum

2 bricky videos in the same month, marvelous.

bricky i found your channel on accident through your uncharted videos in my recommended and your videos are just too good man

My DQ only required favor of the month. And the banana split was never one, but I did it anyways. The trick is first to overfill or underfill it then scoop the fruit juice off and get it to the customer in under 5 seconds. It also helps to not put too much fruit juice first.

Geez Bricky you’re the sole cause of my steam library expanding. $15? That’s a steal

Bricky throwing out videos at a fast pace hell yeah, lowkey wouls wish for a maxor collab lol

the way you say battler makes me flinch every time.

I need bricky B O A T moments. Just a super cut whenever he says boat

Lets go bricky vids make day infinitely better

Gotta love it when bricky uploads

Oh, I remember when this was a Starcraft 2 custom game. Fantastic game, looking forward to trying this out.

Another perfect recommendation, thanks Bricky!

I LOVE the lock in feature on such a detailed game

Mechabellum is GOTY already!

Bricky, there is another way to play Mechabellum which sounds outlandish but hear me out. You can enjoy Mechabellum without playing at all by just spectating a match. There is a "Prediction" system where you basically place a bet on who is gonna win and both players in the match know who got the most bet on them. You do gain "insight" level which does nothing currently aside from showing it off that you were right about your prediction a lot and you do lose it on a wrong bet. It is quite a good way to learn the game by watching the match if you are too intimidated to PvP or you are on low-energy mode and just want to see mechs go boom but still taking some part in it. The spectator gets 90s delay so you can't really narc on or spy info on another player because you will always be watching the previous round battle. The cosmetic skin will come out in the future which you can buy with the in-game credit earned after you researched all the mech tech upgrade. Remember, the match ain't over until your HP hit 0. If your opponent has to win he will have to work to get that last drop of blood out of you.

The “Fuck you, Baltimore” really got me. I love your humor, Brick Man.

I was watching small channels playing mechabellum, nice job on giving this game more attention

SC2 direct strike, also known as desert strike. Damm I spent my teenage years with playing that with my friends. Absolute gem.

The Vashtorr T-shirt feels very appropriate here.

Awesome video Bricky. For your next game to review, I highly recommend CrossCode. I think you'd love it and I want to see it gain the recognition and praise it deserves...also want to see the developers begin work on the sequel which they aren't so I want them to see how much people love CrossCode.

17:58 This man really used megumins explooosion 😂

Please do streams for this as well. I’m fascinated by the concept but I’d like to see a certain very attractive man in stained jorts play it before I buy.

Bro, I can see you're hitting the gym something fierce these days! Congrats

3:20 yeah also these 2 you mentioned are VERY rng heavy

The Mech version of “I used my sign on bonus to buy a Dodge Charger.”

yooo brickster, can't believe you're a fan of DS in SC2, I first played it when it was just named Desert Strike, didn't know it was popular enough to get its own standalone release with its own genre, good shit

I've had my forge daemon hoodie for a few months and fucking love it! Thanks for making great things🎉

Bricky never disappoints with the banger games.

Seeing and hearing references to both 40k TTS and the Sonic fandubs in the same video makes me giggle on the inside.

Dude this game looks incredible. Simple on the outside, but complex and full of tons of variation on the inside. Can’t wait for payday, you’ve convinced me. I guess I should get my bags packed and call a lawyer before I start though 😂😂😂

I was hoping this was the game you teased in the last video. I fucking love Mechabellum

the Sledgehammer is indeed good. And like my IRL one-hand sledgehammer it's been used for tasks not really suited or intended for it but it sledgehammered its way through it with gratifying results.

the sam o'nella part at the introduction of the wasps got me cracking up

Thanks Bricky, never heard of this. Now I'm interested.

3:35 also knowledge of chances and managing your money.

The sam o'nella reference was unexpected and incredibly fitting!

You keep recommending games faster than i can play them brick8

Omfg the desert strike to Mechabellum pipeline is real! Don't let them take your soul!

God I remember that custom game, SC II’s arcade scene was insane

Nothing quite like hearing Sam O'Nella here years before he makes another new video

My lust for bricky videos is larger than his forehead

The Sam O'Nella reference was much appreciated.

Even after the Warhammer addiction? Impressive

Bricky my man, you boutta hit 1 mil and I'm so fuckin' proud

great work bricky , as always . hi-fi rush next ?

Boat slayed me, I replayed that part 10 times

"Auto-battler" "Auto-chess" Man I remember "Tug-of-War" games. Desert Strike, Castle Fight (oh man castle fight..), Nexus Wars...

direct strike and nexus wars are actually a different subgenre of rts called tug of war. Autobattlers are about winning individual fights with roguelike randomized units while tug of war is about gaining ground slowly with preset rosters. i've spent too much time theorycrafting a 40k tug of war game called tides of war that will never become of anything :'(

When I first saw it pop up, I thought it was a mobile game that looked pretty good for a mobile game. Then I saw Day9 playing it, my old Starcraft go to content creator. Now Bricky too? I was thinking about giving it a try, maybe I'll have to do that.

Didn't expect a solidJJ audio clip.

Watching that many mechs remind me sooo much Iron Harvest

I heard someone describe this game as "StarCraft for Dads" and it's perfect.

That Eldar?! Warmed my soul as a necron player

love the Sam o'nella cameo

I just blend the blizzard a bit with the machine and hand mix it the rest of the way. Also, I go a bit easy on the ingredients. I have yet to lose a blizzard.

The problem with buffing health is the game really struggles past round 9 and 10 And starts to stutter like crazy

Bricky has the vibe of like a 50 year old king, he fixed his kingdom, his people are happy and he is no longer interested in war or minor conflicts, all he wants to do is sit down and play wargames with his generals and vassals

The thing that draws me so strongly to bricky is that this is a main channel video with about 2/3 deep dive explanation that appeases my autism and 1/3 straight shit post that appeases my autism

Any game that Brickothy makes a video of I add on my wishlist and will immediately buy it when I have the money to buy it

Fang Spam sounds like the Imperial Guard strat
