This video contains two matches I had with the recently released Zaku Machinery and Zaku Machinery (EB). The regular one is a 450 cost general, while the EB version is a 500 cost support. Both these suits feel pretty fun, but in terms of strength I think the general is much better relative to cost. The general is basically a low cost Zaku scaled up to 450 cost, it has excellent stats across the board, excellent mobility and a versatile loadout that lets it frontline or midline as needed. The support gets Anti-Beam Coating and a sniper rifle that fires piercing gerobi beams with uncharged shots, but it feels oddly difficult to land with them sometimes. I am trying something a bit different here with my description, since the video is about two suits rather than just one. I might make a commentated video later on that explains both suits in greater detail than I can in this description. I hope that you enjoy watching!

Please share your thoughts down in the comments about this new description format and the different thumbnail format. Do you think it is better, worse or about the same quality as my previous videos? I could do a video later as a quick how-to guide for the Zaku Machinery duo, it could include basic combos, how all the weapons work alongside my own personal evaluation of them (including ease of use, how well they stack up to their contemporaries, how well rounded they are etc). If you preferred my previous descriptions, would a video overview of the suits be a suitable replacement? Thanks for watching, and I hope that you enjoyed it!
