How to Master Into the Breach - Episode 2: Gearing Up (Tips for mastering the game) 

Thanks. And yeah, flexibility is almost always the right choice. In another video I want to go over pilots and where to put cores, particularly in debating movement vs HP, where IMO movement is king.

Or Kazaaplethik's mantis attack in a sci mech, preferably with him already having +2 HP to counteract low mech HP

Boosters are deceptively good.

Rusting hulks were my first victory (hard mode too) and it was really easy to get because of all the shields and stuns they offered

Thank you! If you have a topic suggestion let me know.

You could get a 30k with one mech and no pilot.

Thanks for that. I will hopefully finish it off.

@@soulmata With news of the advanced edition of into the breach, will you be making new ITB content? Thanks for your time!

@@Mortis_XII Absolutely. Hopefully on release date if I'm not too busy.

@@Mortis_XII Yup. Planning on streaming the day of the launch and then after I learn the new mechanics start making 30k videos.

Thank you.

Yeah it turns out that flexibility is much more important overall.

The new DLC will probably change things a lot too.

We'll see, it's pretty rough!

Thanks! That is a good idea. ITB is a pretty small community so there's not a whole lot to choose from, unfortunately.

@@soulmata yeah. Community is small and I recently undigged game from time, when it was free on epic. I think, i would be able to send you something soon (if you want) (rather begginer)

@@soulmata hi. if you want, there's my gameplay ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4DXMwq6dbGU.html

@@tornad8063 I look forward to it, let me know when you do so.

@@soulmata hey. Here's my gameplay. It's with custom team, I like to play with. I wanted to do 4 islands, but ended with 2. If you want something longer or with me explaining my actions, or just something else, let me know ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-4DXMwq6dbGU.html

thank you

I think 40k for every squad is impossible with the "perfect" win, but I have already seen people pulling some 40ks on Unfair with custom squads. I will be back as soon as I am done with this COVID infection.

Good to hear, nice to know this channel ain’t dead! Hope you get better soon.

It's also hilarious. Related, I didn't even know that worked until after I'd done my 30ks.

I am 100% going to be both streaming and uploading 30k videos of the new content.

@@soulmata I look forward to seeing it once the update is out on July 19. The day just can't get here fast enough to enjoy the first content update they had for the game in almost 4-5 years since its release (and mostly will be the only content update for it, since I can't see anything else release for it after a big update for it this year.). In addition, I hope you'll do an unboxing of the physical game for Switch when it's out in October. It'll be nice to see what comes in the box for that version as well to wrap up stuff for it. Otherwise, I look forward to the new project you mentioned in the comments here once you complete the advanced ITB stuff and if it's about a game similar to ITB.

@@soulmata Forgot to ask too: Could you show off how to complete the challenge run achievements too, since I'm confused how you got the secret squad unlocked way back then since it does require you to complete them at some point and I couldn't find any good tips on how to complete them, especially the ones where your mechs can't take damage at all on the run, you can't add or replace any of your pilots or weapons (you have to beat the run using only what you started with), etc.? As another suggestion, you could also do a tips video on how to complete some of the harder achievements like on some of the squad achievement ones and maybe the one that you have to beat a run in under X time? I could see a reason as well to complete those on easy mode since almost all of the achievements (expect the one that wants you to beat a hard difficulty run) aren't tied to a certain difficulty in order to get them done. Just thought I asked, since some of the game is about being "perfect" in almost everything (completing objectives and achievements) that can throw a lot of people off when they're new to the game, especially with a timer requirement on one of them and the game itself getting updated in almost 2 weeks.

@@danielschaublin Sounds like an interesting idea, I could do something like that.

@@soulmata I hope you'll make a video down the line for achievements then, especially when they add a bunch of new ones to the game with the Advanced Edition. I know the 5+ new mech squads will have 3 each to complete, and I don't ever know if they will add more general achievements (ones like those challenge run achievements that you can complete with any squad), but it's a video worth making a part of that short series of videos you'll make once the update is out. This game really tests your ability to be "perfect" and "do this crazy stunts" at the same time with those achievements and objective. Maybe one day they'll make a "complete a run completing all general achievements in the game," if people want to try to get a "perfect" run at that point especially when your mechs can't take damage, etc.

If it was arty instead of LOS it would bump it up into an entirely different class. But LOS makes it situational at best. It's not that you can't use it, but I'd rather have any other science mech. Pull is pretty rare though, so you got a point, but usually the counter to that is there are plenty of AoE pushes that won't damage grid or disablers like smoke you could use instead.

You definitely need to consider your alpha, and a vek with 1 HP is as dangerous as a vek with 3hp when you hit that end turn button.

Mostly because I got a ton of really shitty comments I got tired of deleting. However, I am currently working on a major side project that is not ITB but closely related that I hope to show off on YT and twitch soon.

@@soulmata don’t let that gate get you down my man

@@soulmata No idea why people would post shitty comments on content this good, it's great stuff!

Are you excited for the ITB advanced update coming july 19?

@@ninomhw827 100%

As soon as I recover from COVID, I will.

The intention was the opposite!
