For the ones who still don't quite understand how my hangar holds up against some of the stronger players - it doesn't. What I'm doing is using psychology to flip the game in my favour. Having 5 meta bots that are maxed with a Newton does not mean you'll win more games. In fact… many of your losses will happen because your teammates don't do the three things I have mentioned in this video. If you reverse the thinking behind that, as a lower level player you can use that to your advantage to even the battlefield. If you do these three things shown in the video, you're more likely to win (especially if everyone else on your team is doing it too). You won't win every game but your probability of winning will definitely increase. The more you practice these things the more efficient you will be at executing them at the right times - unfortunately this strategy can't be bought and takes time to learn. This is where experience comes in and usually experience trumps all.
@@dennypg3d105 You're talking specifically about ONE game. I'm talking about in the grand scheme of things. If you keep playing you'll fall into a loop where you start losing. This use to happen very often with my main account which was fully maxed but even with my BR Account it happens. The last I checked my win percentage on my BR Account was around 62% win rate which is based off of the last 50 games. For an account that is maxed out and with quite a few meta that isn't really that much more than 50% which I consider the median. What is your win rate right now?
… having 5 meta bots will 100% help you win games… especially having meta weapons to go with it. You can not tell me having 5 meta bots will not help any player.
This is not psychology, it's a Master lesson on how to be a good player. I wish I have seen this months ago. Thank you very much, sir. You are helping a Lot of players and the game itself. Bravo!
One of the simplest ways to get a lot of silver is to play alot, however once you win a few matches, the game puts you up against harder and harder opponents, reulting in loss after loss.
That's because match making is focused around the 50% win rate. To be "balanced" think of the 50% like a see-saw. If you're too much on one end say 60% or 70% then it's going to make you lose basically until you get closer to 50%. If you fall too low below 50% say 30-40% then you'll go on a win streak until you reach over that 50% mark. This happens both on my Baby Account, BR Account and use to happen frequently on my personal account as well. I'm actuallly kinda wondering if the match making War Robots uses is similar to Fortnite because I notice with that game it's very similar. When I'm going through a crazy win streak in that game for example one night I believe I won about 12 games in a row the next night I won maybe only 1 or 2 and the rest were all losses. Also I noticed in the night when I had so many losses most of the players were way more experienced as they were wearing skins from the early years of Fortnite but also had emotes from back then too - many of them had crowns indicating they had won the previous game. Bottom line... if I win too much in that game I'm set up to eventually lose and the odds get stacked heavily against me until I lose.
i feel like many players are just scared to lose their bot, as such they prefer range so they can stay alive for more. but as you said this just hurts your team. i run a baby account too, with no tier 4 weapons and only bots in workshop, yet i'm in mid-high champions. if i played more i would easily be over 8k trophies, currently at 6.6k. the way to pull it off is the same you suggested and i fully agree with it! run beacons, hold beacons, and run tanks. my baby account runs a fenrir, revenant and skyros, on top of a blitz (which can last surprisingly long), with the only range being hawk. titan should also be selected to hold beacons, i'm currently running a nodens as a stopgap since healers can boost your silver income, but i will eventually switch to cinder minos (i can only run t3 titans and t3 titan weps due to challenge rules)
Yup I could very easily get this account to Champion League. Not with the same level of course but remember too if I'm playing more I'm making more resources. I'd have all my bots probably all at MK2/4. In most games though I don't think MK3 is necessary especially after you see how players play. If they aren't holding or even pushing beacons having MK3 won't make any difference. The ONLY time it really makes a difference is in squad play where it's maybe S-ranked clan vs S-ranked clan. In this case MK3 makes a difference and so too how much meta each side is running. We're talking about extreme levels of pay2win that 98% of players will never experience since you need to be in these clans to experience it.
I'm assuming in those games most of them end up in losses right? I mention this before and players didn't want to believe me. Now I'm showing it happening even when approaching Champioin League. The way I use psychology on this Baby Account is my biggest weapon because I know most players don't know how to defend beacons.
😂😂😂Me too. I get irritated when all they want to do is spawn raid and get kills. I've been in losses where my team got more kills but didn't go for beacons. Once I got 19 beacons with my loki and we still lost because no one was defending beacons.
@@adrianchongwhat most people forget is even if a player is full meta as op as possible they can't be everywhere at once because of this teammates are important as an example if there is an op player in your team without you pushing beacons and helping them they can only do so much and this works other way around too. so help your team instead of trying to be a one man army
Love the baby account videos. Every one of them makes the day. The lessons learnt are very crucial as well. Look forward to the baby account videos a lot. Great one Adrian!
I'm a free to play player and I'm in the Champions League, yes it's true what you say, having a view of the map is very important to see the opponent's next move too
This topic could be even broader if you consider like what/when/where to drop your bots if the match is set to a stalemate, but what you've mention is the basic of a team-base game. Hangar composition is the first learning curve for sure, from there it all comes down to experience including the psychology of the game.
This one can be hard to touch on because strategies will vary depending on the map. Also it depends on what your opponents are running plus what your team is running at that moment.
Yeah even he was pushing. He saw how the players were backing away and I followed too. Players are too afraid sometimes and I think it's more because they just don't want to lose their bots.
Wow. The things I wish I had known. It makes perfect sense. This is a very important lesson to everyone. Focus on the weapons more than the bots. Almost all of your weapons are at LVL9
Yep. The levels of bots and weapons are all relative in most cases though. As I level up my bots then naturally I will run into much stronger hangars. What turns the tide in many games though is what I have showed.
Hey Adrian! Could you also give us a similar video for a hangar setup for early or mid-game players, like a combination of bots to use e.g. Tank + Healer + Beacon Capper + Type4 + Type5. Adding the basic module types if and when they have it. Thanks for your videos. 🤓
This is why i hate if some of the event quest need to deal dmg above 400m+ or so ,i like playing aggressive even tho my robot are stil mk1 and mk2 ,but just like you said ,the enemy dont know that i have low level bot ,by pushing them , you're gonna make them panic and afraid and make them go off the beacon ,but it depends on your teammates as well ,i always run in game where i use my strong robot to push and hold beacon ,but my teammates just hanging back without even helping or try to defend the beacon so that i can drop in there again ,when that happen i always stop using my powercell and try my best without using any heal and stuff
Yup and if more of your teammates start doing what I have shown in this video then the chances are you will win more. You have to understand too how match making works. If you've been winning for a while and have a high win percentage then the game will match you with much stronger players. This is how match making works unfortunately - it's the same in Fortnite which is another game I play. If I win in that game too much then it will put me against players that have been playing for years plus those that have crown wins. It will do this until I lose a lot then I'll start winning when it has found where I should be placed.
Adrian, basics--people think that strong bots means you don't have to know strategy or tactics (which is actually true for those using One-Shot Newton builds--absurd), but it's incredible how many times I've seen guys literally next to white or red beacons and just milling around.
Can’t help but notice and point out only 1 drone was leveled. This is about the same for me right now as I am also a f2p player, the drone system needs a rework as it takes months simply to upgrade 1 level and then to max a legendary drone out is almost impossible. I have had a lv 11 kestrel drone waiting for upgrade token for months. This game needs a major overhaul…
lynx is one of the best robots for a free to play account since it can rush beacons execute enemy titans and ochos and lastly it is pretty good at surviving because of stealth and forcefield
It’s definitely another way of how to help your teammates with a budget hangar. At the same time try not to rage 😡 at players that don’t seem to understand that beacons are the win factor and not just kills. A very informative video, thank you. As for the baby account going in full meta gear would be interesting to watch as one of your hangar episodes 👍👍
Well Adrian your advice is working. But let's take a look at other perception when up against something like ocho and those rust weapons, it's not working anymore. Against rushing ocho with those rust weapons, keep dropping in on the same beacon to def is only suicide move even with strong tank like Fenrir or revenant or healer like mender or khepri. Bcs they simply lost their power to keep the HP bar n take more damage due to rust eff. Plus the immortal rushing ocho on the top of that. Unless you have the same meta items. I'm talking about 1 on 1 situation. The Meta is Just too OP lately. This is maybe one of many reasons players play range.
I think you have to understand that those Rust weapons are pretty broken by design because you just can't heal up. If I gave you an MK3 Ocho with the same rust weapons you may not even be able to hold down that beacon. At that point it's a matter of whether you have the right modules, pilot skills etc but also it will boil down to the timing of when you used your ability. Even then if the beacon was turned white you're actually at a big disadvantage because red team's stronger players will rush there - stronger players will fight for the white beacons. At this point it'll be you vs 2 or 3 other players which at that point is a lost cause if your team isn't there to help. The point I'm trying to make is that it's not all about the Ocho like players think - I've actually killed even Ochos that drop in at a beacon that were MK3 because I caught them JUST as they dropped in. If you're on a beacon and an Ocho charges and kills you, if you know your tank can't survive and your teammates are nowhere in sight, it's best to give that beacon up and push another beacon elsewhere. This is where the experience part comes in and it's something that's learned over time. In the second game when I dropped in with my Demeter do you see how the Ocho just pushed me off? I knew at that point I was going to either lose my bot and the beacon I believe was already changing. However at that point the Ocho on my team rushed in to defend. At this point I decided to teleport to my teammates on our left beacon to deal with the Newton because they needed the extra firepower. If I had stayed on the lower beacon I would have most likely died and the Demeter would have been lost not contributing to my team in any way. It still died fast but I was at least able to shield my teammates at the top and provided a bit more firepower to deal with the Newton. The result? We killed both the Newton and Indra. As for why players play range. These are generally the newer players as they don't feel comfortable at close range and probably don't want to lose their bots. However what they don't realize is that they're more likely to lose their entire hangar since they're giving up positioning on the map. I posted something on Reddit early about this video and included a story as to why I play this way. It's definitely worth the read if you have time: www.reddit.com/r/walkingwarrobots/comments/197bjc5/the_secret_to_winning_more_with_a_free_account/
I try ro pick older tanks so I get the higher hp and I don't have to worry about nerfs. The weapons you choose matter a lot as well as picking bots that fit your play style
I know that a TON of players in this game don't even try to get/protect beacons, but you have to consider how we are seeing more and more players with maxed ochokochi/ophion players dropping down to low CL and below due to the same skill issues. This causes kinda causes us to face a bunch of ochos/ophions who will not fall for this trick because they know off the bat that we are MUCH weaker because we aren't running the same gear as them. You can just look at how long a maxed out fenrir survives with pilot skills and everything, and then just compare to and ochokochi of the conditions. Just look how quickly a rust ophion will shred through some of the strongest robots and titans in the game. This tactic works against people with maxed normal hangers, but people with maxed ochos/ophions will just see it as a free kill.
While a Rust Ophion or Rust Ocho can kill you fast, they can do that with other MK3 Rust Ophions/Ochos too. I still believe what I mentioned will be what turns the tide in most games. You have to remember I run into these players too with this account. However if red team isn't doing what I did and what I focused on they will lose because my team which also has that meta will over-run them. When I'm running meta gear I don't focus on the weak specifically like you have mentioned. I focus on the ones preventing me from getting beacons that I need to win. I don't care whether you're a Fenrir or Ocho - if you're a threat I take you out. If you're running around capping beacons on me I have absolutely no way to prevent that loss unless my teammates pull their weight. Not even MK3 or a full meta hangar will help me win. This is unfortunately how it goes. Also what you mentioned it's also psychology working against you. If you think that's what will happen all the time then you're actually sabotaging yourself because in your mind you've already lost before the battle has even started. Not sure if that makes sense. Those people with "maxed Ochos and Ophions" can't cover all the beacons by themselves. If their teammates aren't pulling their weight then they won't get a chance to use their meta on you.
A maxed ochokochi can certainly destroy any team of players who have lower power/level gear or the wrong gear/playstyle. I just played a game where an ochokochi singlehandedly defeated 5 players who were actively trying to defend with pretty decent brawlers. What where his teammates doing? All brainlessly firing into a skyros. While this shows that the league system seriously needs some changes because these were CHAMPIONS for gods sake, it also shows the ocho is way too powerful. Bad teamwork like this should be punished with a loss, yet the ocho still pulls through. As for the psychology affecting me? It probably is, considering the amount of times I just see an ochokochi launch every single player defending home to the back of the map 30 seconds into the game. It really does seem hopeless when they toss you around like toys. Not even gonna speak about the newton and the titan zeus because we all know that setup is not right for this game
@@theprofessionalidiot1256 What I don't understand with what you mentioned - 5 players trying to defend against an Ocho. What about the other beacons? I'm not saying that Ocho is not OP or anything because I think even if there was a very tanky Fenrir I'm pretty sure your team of 5 would all still shoot the guy when they could have gone for other beacons. If you can't kill the Ocho then some of your team should have split up to go for other beacons that weren't guarded. The Ocho can't cover all the beacons at the same time. The psychology is affecting you on many levels. You're feeling helpless no matter what you do but you also have to understand too that it's a team effort and sometime it's not all your fault. As a result of this game you then go into the next game thinking the same will happen and over time you'll actually lose more games because of this mindset. Back when I first started playing the game I remember I'd have so many losses sometimes - I think the most losses I've had in a row was over 20 but I can't remember the exact number. Back in 2014 we didn't have the player replacement system so when players left at the start they weren't replaced. On many occasions I had to take a 1 hour break or even a few hours because it became too frustrating - no matter what I did I just couldn't win and was so tempted to spend. Mind you when I did spend it was more for content back then but even then I would have similar losing streaks. I think this is when I realized too that spending wasn't really the answer and some things I just had to accept as a player and I really had no control over it. Even nowadays when I run my BR Account games can get so frustrating and you can hear it in my commentary too - not even having a maxed hangar sometimes even with Ochos in it makes a difference because you know the odds are so heavily against you.
Adrian you are definitely a talented player for a fact. I've watched your vids since early on in my WWR experience. 2015 I believe. I no longer play because of Pix' business practices. Too harsh IMO. Too much manipulation regarding MM. And the point I'm going to make is just that. Knowing their methods it's impossible to tell if they adjust MM for their accounts being used by content providers. I suspect they do. Once again it's not a slight regarding your abilities because you are one of the best players in the game sir. Along with Aygir.
I don't think they adjust things to my knowledge although I could very well just use your account and the same would apply. I actually use this strategy even in Fortnite and it works. Sometimes I wish I could log into players' accounts and use their hangar to prove my strategies but I really don't want that player to get banned for account sharing as that's against the game's terms of service. In Fortnite though I've improved tenfold simply because I play aggressively - this is equivalent to me playing aggressively in War Robots (take the second game as an example). In Fortnite I do it because those that snipe generally are not comfortable in close range. When I face many of them they freeze up or make mistakes and that's when I capitalize on it. With Fortnite if you die then you're either out of the game or if you're in a squad you need to be rebooted or revived by teammates. With War Robots players are generally afraid of losing their bots and I think that's why they hang back - I use to be like this when I first started but had to change because I was forced to when the enemy was always in my home spawn. As a result I got over my fear of losing bots and as a result became a much better player.
Hi Adrian, Quiet curious why don't you suggest skyros as beacon runner?? It has good firepower to kill enemies with high burst weapons, can also hold beacons for long time and also available in workshop. I feel i support more to team win with my 2 skyros than a ravana and fenrier both in terms of kills and beacons as the later get killed in like seconds ....
I believe I've mentioned Skyros as one of the robots I would build in that series. The thing with Skyros though is that while you can get beacons your damage average tends to drop quite considerably. Also often times I find with Skyros players they're in their Skyros for too long - when they're in their ball mode their teammates are taking on crazy damage and losing bots. If you aren't paying attention to these things then even all the beacon running won't help since your team will be mech'd out. However... if you find that you're able to do these things with your Skyros then I wouldn't listen to what I say. What works for you is actually more important. Hope this makes sense?
i am at champions league as free to play and my recomendation for other free to play players is ignore the ocho spawnraiding and go for beacons because they will be so focused on raiding your base with all their power you will win by beacon controll just because they forget beacons it works every 5-6 rounds out of 10 rounds for me to win
When a group of heavy tanks push a beacon (whether Ocho or not), if you don't have the same tanks to match it's best to push another beacon to counter-balance the game. So many times I see players sit and watch the Ochos pushing their beacons together when they can be pushing other beacons that aren't even guarded.
There is a huge level of skill required and good teamwork to keep a consistent winstreak, but the biggest reasons why most players lose are: ●Enemy has exponentially higher level meta. You can have all the skill in the world but mute and ocho will sweep low levels. ●Its a 6 man squad. No counter to this, blueberries get shredded. Thankfully these are rare. ●Newton ●Hackers. They are alot rarer now days. ●Teammates suck, or bot out. ●Newton ●Teammates losing Titans early giving the enemy a huge advantage. ●Newton ●Teammates jumping off carrier ●Did i say Newton?
Ocho, Mute, Ophion and Newton will always be a problem in the game but as with everything else this meta will pass and a new one will develop. It will always be hard to play against a 6 man squad but also thankfully this doesn't happen too often. At least it hasn't happened often with me when I play on that Baby Account but also not too often on the BR Account either. If you're playing a team game like Domination or Beacon Rush it'll be harder to maintain a high win percentage - this goes for whether you're on a free account or pay2win account which has full meta. That win percentage of yours will be determined by how much you're currently winning but also your teammates and their understanding of the game. For example you could have a 90% win rate because you were squadding with clan mates and then drop into a solo game. However... even with 5 maxed Ochos and a Newton you'll go down if your teammates don't go for beacons or protect it. If they don't you're running around like a mad man - you might even get 20 mil damage and maybe 15 beacons but will still lose. The game sets you up to lose when you're winning too much. Although this isn't related to War Robots but I noticed in Fortnite they do the same thing. With Fortnite if I'm winning a lot the next night I might play for say 6 hours and only get 1 win. I remember one time I was winning a lot and the next day or so I had lost every game. I think it was about 10 hours of playing where I had lost every game lol. After that period was over then I started winning again only to plateau out and then the losses starting happening. I wonder if they use a similar type of match making because the behaviour is very similar.
I know that you only take dream hangers requests in dream hangers videos but In your next dream hangers video can you use the following free to play hanger i use in master League Fenrir-ember/igniter Lynx-Bane Imugi-cryo/rime Mender-scorcher/scald Khepri-ksiphos Titan=murometz-krait/basilisk I only have the starter mothership could you tellme the best way to get a better one thanks so much
Sorry for the copy/paste I just copied it from my video description. Support my channel by using the following link market.my.games/top_up/163/ when purchasing items from the web shop and be sure to use my Creator Code: AdrianChong
Yep. That's also why I think the lower level free accounts are running into them but eventually those maxed hangars face the true Champion League players and get steam rolled just like they do with the free players. At this point I'm guessing they spend more hoping it would change things but really it doesn't.
I like your tips but back when I was f2p I would drop my level 9 fenrir and defend beacons like you said. It got killed fast. I drop my titans. It dies. I botted out trying to defend that beacon. It was a 1v1 too. Level over skill. You can’t win if your enemy is too high leveled
The thing when you drop into your tanks you have to also evaluate what you're going up against. For example if there's two bots that are pushing the beacon you're defending it might not be a smart thing to drop there especially if you don't have help. Instead what I would do in this case is give up that beacon and push another beacon that's not guarded. You actually see me do this in the second game on Castle map. When I dropped in with my Demeter to defend I saw there was an Ocho which just used their ability. At that very moment my team's Ocho rushed in. However… knowing that my Demeter wouldn't survive I teleported to the top beacon to help my teammates rather defend against the Newton. This split second decision is something that players like you can also make but remember this also comes with practice. In your example where you say level over skill it doesn't always apply. If I were an Ocho that dropped in on that beacon it wouldn't have guaranteed that I would have held him off either - in fact if he caught me off guard I could have lost that Ocho straight away too. I think a lot of players have convinced themselves that MK3 or having max level equipment is the way to win but it really isn't. I've done a TON of Dream Hangar videos and quite often even at max level the hangars suffer severely. Not because I don't know how to play it but because against aggressive players I can't hold down beacons - yes even when it's maxed out I run into these problems. The ONLY time I'm able to really hold down beacons is when I have more tanks. Sure it might be easier if it was MK3 but the bottom line is that tanks is what is needed. I rather have an MK1 level 12 Fenrir than to have an MK3 Fafnir that is flying around or even MK3 Ophion when it comes to holding a beacon down.
lol it's funny when players refer to skill. This game from the very start didn't really require THAT much skill in my opinion but more understanding how things work. These days it seems more about maths than anything else. I guess skill also means different things to different people depending on who you ask.
i realised you are not shooting ophions while they are landing but actually you should because even if it looks like they have sheilds they actually dont have sheild while landing
I’m really starting to believe my teammates are ai bots that are not real because the mistakes they make are unprecedented it’s like their playing for the other team
A lot of them are real unfortunately. I've had games on my BR Account for example where I might have insane damage like 18 mil and 15 beacons but will still lose. This is why I don't buy into the whole "pay2win" argument. Yes the game is pay2win to some extent as in it gives you more powerful equipment etc but out of the many games I've played most of my games weren't lost because of equipment levels. Most were lost because of the things I mentioned in this video. In fact it was so evident it backed up why my Baby Account would be able to win. Not all the time but more than usual if I did those things.
I think your whiteout drone maxed out should go on the ravana with those nearby weapons and because the ravana faster to walk closer to robots for the white out ability
I was using my Whiteout drone on my Ravana before but moved it to Fenrir because I use that build for Extermination mode. I might buy another Whiteout in the future though.
I am also in master and I will say even though I win often I just don't find it fun. The only fun I find in this game anymore is using my mender in tffa
I play Beacon Rush because my hangar is more suited for that. The only time I really play Domination is when I'm doing Dream Hangars. The reason? Most times the hangars I review have so much range that's the only mode that gives me a chance of actually getting footage.
The strategies I showed in this video actually originated from Domination. These are things I learned back in 2014 when I first started playing the game.
Hello Adrian, i have started a new account like your baby account but i am leveling up so fast and going up the leagues. i started around a month ago and still have 4 hanger slots with Gepard, Leo, Orochi & Fenrir which pixo gave these 2 as a gift, and my Kid titan and bots are all level 4, weapons levels 6 and 7, but i am in expert league! and many are tankers and have maxed stuff. i think i should make another new account and play only up to this level :D
I use it to buy things like modules and speeding up upgrades if there's a discount. I need to look at other areas though because my gold is building up fast.
Psychology ? Adrian you're a therapist now ? I didn't know lol . But seriously , I have a book about psychology lol . The video title kinda surprised me a bit lol
Why would it surprise you? This is what I do on my Baby Account. Players always asking me how is it I win so much - this is what I'm doing. I'm not hiding anything.
This I can definitely agree on. This goes back even to 2014. I know when I play in the mornings I run into a lot of squads and also Asian players as there are less players online in North America. Japanese and Chinese players (the legit ones) have very good teamwork. I still have the scars from during the Spectre meta when we got schooled by a team from Japan. These guys weren't even running meta but their teamwork was so good that we (VØX) got schooled in like 4 minutes on moon. The fact that I still remember which map and meta goes to show you how well I remember that battle lol.
pls.adrain can you tell me how to get a titan repair amplifier for free without money becuse my luchador is useless is without a tra or titans repairs amplifier
I think the only way might be through Black Market. I'd have to check the prizes there but I usually just save up all my keys and do an opening at the end of each season.
If I don't have Power Cells then I just don't use them. If I'm using them for things like healing then instead of using Advanced Repair/Repair Unit I'll use Mechanic or Wonderworker skills.
I think it could work in low leagues, but in master it's relative, I'm master league with a no meta MK2 hangar and more than a half of battles the game puts me against champion, RUclipsrs and leyend league and no strategy or skill can face the actual meta, if your team doesn't have an equal player your are lost
My Baby Account is actually in Master 2 but I know many others who have free accounts in Champion League who use very similar tactics/strategy to win games. Sure in their case they have MK2 but that's not the reason why they're winning - they're winning because they're applying the things I mentioned in the video. As for your team not having an equal player. I'm not sure how things are done now but I believe if there's two Champion players on your team and the rest Master then the red team is usually the same. I'm not sure what you're running in your hangar but if you're in Master League and the same server as me we might have even crossed paths already.
Hello adrian Im too in master and i have a f2p account but i have a mk2 mars and a lvl 9 fenrir with devastator and spike weaphons Thanks for the advice man ❤ Can you play with me please ? Im same your level
Extremely expensive game to play. I keep exiting until I don't see an Ochocochi, which has ruined the game; not to mention the BS stealth, useless drones, and aerial attacks.
This kind of content is wrong, because it makes noobs believe that with low level robots they can face guys with maxed hangars and emerge victorious, this is what pixonic is looking for, that they go up and up with weak hangars, and reach a point where they cannot They have no other option but to pay to get better things... stay in your league, don't go up the league without having the necessary level, from diamond/expert you have to have things already at MK2, don't go up with weak hangars.
I am not arguing with your content Adrian, but there are many who do not use their heads to think of strategies to play, many new players do not know how to capture beacons and you almost always have to carry them, or they make you lose the games, because they definitely do not know how to play, and they move up the league thanks to Pixonic, which moves anyone up the league, not to mention that the game does not have a tutorial where they are taught WELL how to play... not to mention that you are not going to compare the years that you have been playing, With the months that the noobs have been there and they are already stepping into high leagues, without having the necessary hangars or knowing how to play, what is wrong here is the method that Pixonic has to raise the new ones up the league.
There's actually two ways we can go about it. I can just show overpowered equipment and say this is why I win (when really it isn't) or I can show that I'm able to win with lower level equipment which is what most want to see too. You say "this is what Pixonic is looking for" but the other way is actually worse. Players who spend but don't know this stuff will think the reason why they're losing is because they don't have enough meta. They will keep spending and spending wondering why it's not working and eventually will call it quits OR spend even more. This isn't really good in that it eventually affects the quality of the games especially in Champion League as you end up with players who have the equipment but really don't understand the game. Would you rather have a player that's maxed out on your team but doesn't know how to play or a player that isn't maxed out but knows how to play? The "noobs that are stepping into high leagues" are usually the ones who have the equipment but don't know how to play yet. This is also why the gameplay experience has deteriorated so rapidly over the past year. What they need to do is raise the cups further and make it harder to get to Champion League. My Baby Account should really only be Expert League maybe at the highest with that equipment so for me to meet Masters it just goes to show you how much the game has deteriorated in terms of players and their understanding of the game.
Also you mentioned from "Diamond/Expert" you have to have things at MK2, don't go up with weak hangars. The thing is I'm just playing normally - this is way beyond my control what you're asking me to do. For me to drop down I basically shouldn't play then or I should tank. Unfortunately I don't tank and don't leave games. It's also not my fault if players don't go for beacons and I just climb the leagues.
Well, precisely for that reason I tell you, I am not criticizing your content, what is simply wrong is that Pixonic increases the players so quickly, at no time did I talk about farmers or tankers, I simply tell you that that hangar is not in its place. league.
I think this is actually very hard to do right now because they need to tackle the cheaters/hackers first then the tankers. Only once they've actually done that can they really tweak things in terms of league. The problem though too is that hacking and cheating seems to be at insane levels not just in this game but it seems in other popular games too. I actually think the gaming industry as a whole is really suffering right now because of the lengths that cheaters are going to in order to exploit games. We're not even talking about cheating using things like VPNs but rather installing hardware so that they can't get caught. So while you may not agree with my Baby Account (which is fine btw since I know players will have different views on it), I still think it represents most. I face higher level players too and for a player who doesn't spend, I'm showing what others can do to make their hangar the most effective without actually spending. If it forces me to play against maxed out players then I show that too (as is shown in the video). If I were to manipulate the system and drop leagues so that I get "easier" opponents with similar level equipment I would consider that even worse content. Why? Because I'm showing players how to exploit the system and I woudn't be preparing them for the challenges ahead. I rather know what to expect so that I can plan ahead than to one day just get slaughtered and realize what I've been building just doesn't work at all. Not sure if that makes sense? Also what you mentioned with Pixonic adding players so fast is definitely a problem. I think the game has changed to where players are getting insane offers and with that they're climbing through the leagues incredibly fast to the point where some are in Champion League with only 1000-1500 victories. The issue I have with this is that the quality for Champion League players has plummeted so the experience actually gets way worse the higher up you climb no matter if you spend simply because the players don't understand the game well at those levels (when really they should).
your free to play acc is 10x worse then my free to play account its extremley easy and nothing special the thing that holds you back is the new and broken shenlou ...
Well it should be 10x worse because I only play 2-4 hours a month. Most play that in a day. I also don't enter giveaways and don't join clans. Why? So that I have an idea of the worst possible scenario that a free player goes through. The Shenlou won't hold me back like you think. I've dealt with Ochokochis on this account and Shenlou is no different. I think players really don't understand the purpose of this account which is understandable especially if they are new to my channel. When I started this account many players were convinced it was impossible for a free player to advance. These same players were also convinced that I had no skill and needed MK3 equipment. What they underestimated was just how well I know the game and how experience was going to carry me through. Before I started this account I mentioned in the comments section that even if I started an account from scratch and took it to Champion League it wouldn't prove anything because those same players that were accusing me of not having skill and things not being possible will give me another excuse. Well... I started it from scratch and everyone was happy - in fact it was enjoyed by all. But… as I started to build my hangar and win robots the hate started to pour in. In fact the worst performing video on my channel with almost 800 dislikes was a Baby Account video where I demonstrated how I used low level robots vs high level robots. I'm not sure if that was the one where I reached Champion League as well. What would happen if I did this experiment again? Nothing… I would achieve the same results although I would get there faster since there are more ways for me to get resources now. Just remember, I only play this account 2-4 hours an entire month - most play this in a day therefore they should be miles ahead of me. If they aren't they are doing something wrong.
Ochos it will be harder but if you can't defend that beacon then push another beacon. The reason why you want those beacons early on especially is because if the enemy drops in with Newtons, if you're close to enemy spawn then your Luchadors, Rooks, Minos and Indras will be more effective. I've been in quite a few games where we had beacon control and I was able to wipe out 3-4 Newtons with my Luchador because I was right in their spawn.
Wow I've my team mates are bad im a beast and rightfully so, these team mates basically of mine dont protect me at all, tbh today was the first time in many years they'd helped me but im always the first out but i still get to number 1 or 2nd thats how bad they are jokers your ment to look after each other aint you
This is a bad game with completely P2W mechanics. I played it for 7-8 years, but with so much complicated things they've added, modules, pilots, drones, ship, and I don't know what else. Am I playing a mech battle game, or a mech manager game, I don't know. I don't need so much complicated stuff on a mobile game.
Remaster pos pixel did better aand inhate there guts .. as soon as u get through the first 12 matches you basicaly lose em all .. I got 2 bots lvl1 up against fukin premium lvl 10 bots not even 2 hours into the game
i hope wr pays you Something for all this mambo-jambo. Evryoane know only strategi in wr is money and greed of wr owner/team. if You whit this account kill a full ochikochi mk3 then i will belive your "strategi"
Not really. I actually hit 76% win rate. The only ones who will be "suffering" are the ones I'm going up against. They're the ones giving me more resources because they don't protect their beacons.
This guy knows nothing about winning with a free account. The secret is to pay to win. Your league is capped based on the strength of your wallet, bots and equipment not your psychology.
Yep it'll probably happen - these are usually the stubborn players that refuse to believe these things even though I show them step-by-step, in some cases live stream it to them (no cherry picking as it's done live) and they still don't believe it. Not that it matters. Also… I use this strategy in Fortnite too. There's a reason why I have over 200 Crown Victories so far. I play aggressively because I know players freeze up and panic. They might even be more experienced than me but many don't handle aggression well. This is also why brawlers will win most times over campers no matter the map nor the game mode.
Consistently I end up the only remaining player on my team after the first 50% of the game my team has a good beacon lead then it all goes to pot 😅 any advice please?
I think actually sometimes when this happens there might even be someone on red team cheating. I've heard of subtle hacks where some players will use it to crash other players so that they win. I'm not sure if this is true but it would explain too why so many are leaving all of a sudden in some of our games. If you're the only one left too, are you perhaps running too much range or maybe have a Skyros in your lineup? I'm asking about the Skyros because I often see players using Skyros and staying in that bot for too long - if you see your teammates suffering heavy losses then it's best to get out of Skyros and help them defend. Not doing so results in your team meching out and you're the only one left.
For the ones who still don't quite understand how my hangar holds up against some of the stronger players - it doesn't. What I'm doing is using psychology to flip the game in my favour. Having 5 meta bots that are maxed with a Newton does not mean you'll win more games. In fact… many of your losses will happen because your teammates don't do the three things I have mentioned in this video. If you reverse the thinking behind that, as a lower level player you can use that to your advantage to even the battlefield. If you do these three things shown in the video, you're more likely to win (especially if everyone else on your team is doing it too). You won't win every game but your probability of winning will definitely increase. The more you practice these things the more efficient you will be at executing them at the right times - unfortunately this strategy can't be bought and takes time to learn. This is where experience comes in and usually experience trumps all.
Thanks you Adrian!
Facts, great video Adrian🫡
@@adrianchongImagine if a meta player used these tactics! Imagine how strong their team would be!
@@dennypg3d105 You're talking specifically about ONE game. I'm talking about in the grand scheme of things. If you keep playing you'll fall into a loop where you start losing. This use to happen very often with my main account which was fully maxed but even with my BR Account it happens. The last I checked my win percentage on my BR Account was around 62% win rate which is based off of the last 50 games. For an account that is maxed out and with quite a few meta that isn't really that much more than 50% which I consider the median. What is your win rate right now?
… having 5 meta bots will 100% help you win games… especially having meta weapons to go with it. You can not tell me having 5 meta bots will not help any player.
This is not psychology, it's a Master lesson on how to be a good player. I wish I have seen this months ago.
Thank you very much, sir. You are helping a Lot of players and the game itself.
Bravo!
It actually applies to many games as well. I use a lot of this same psychology in Fortnite.
One of the simplest ways to get a lot of silver is to play alot, however once you win a few matches, the game puts you up against harder and harder opponents, reulting in loss after loss.
That's because match making is focused around the 50% win rate. To be "balanced" think of the 50% like a see-saw. If you're too much on one end say 60% or 70% then it's going to make you lose basically until you get closer to 50%. If you fall too low below 50% say 30-40% then you'll go on a win streak until you reach over that 50% mark. This happens both on my Baby Account, BR Account and use to happen frequently on my personal account as well.
I'm actuallly kinda wondering if the match making War Robots uses is similar to Fortnite because I notice with that game it's very similar. When I'm going through a crazy win streak in that game for example one night I believe I won about 12 games in a row the next night I won maybe only 1 or 2 and the rest were all losses. Also I noticed in the night when I had so many losses most of the players were way more experienced as they were wearing skins from the early years of Fortnite but also had emotes from back then too - many of them had crowns indicating they had won the previous game. Bottom line... if I win too much in that game I'm set up to eventually lose and the odds get stacked heavily against me until I lose.
i feel like many players are just scared to lose their bot, as such they prefer range so they can stay alive for more. but as you said this just hurts your team. i run a baby account too, with no tier 4 weapons and only bots in workshop, yet i'm in mid-high champions. if i played more i would easily be over 8k trophies, currently at 6.6k. the way to pull it off is the same you suggested and i fully agree with it! run beacons, hold beacons, and run tanks. my baby account runs a fenrir, revenant and skyros, on top of a blitz (which can last surprisingly long), with the only range being hawk. titan should also be selected to hold beacons, i'm currently running a nodens as a stopgap since healers can boost your silver income, but i will eventually switch to cinder minos (i can only run t3 titans and t3 titan weps due to challenge rules)
Yup I could very easily get this account to Champion League. Not with the same level of course but remember too if I'm playing more I'm making more resources. I'd have all my bots probably all at MK2/4. In most games though I don't think MK3 is necessary especially after you see how players play. If they aren't holding or even pushing beacons having MK3 won't make any difference. The ONLY time it really makes a difference is in squad play where it's maybe S-ranked clan vs S-ranked clan. In this case MK3 makes a difference and so too how much meta each side is running. We're talking about extreme levels of pay2win that 98% of players will never experience since you need to be in these clans to experience it.
When my teammates can't defend or go for beacons i started cussing. Thank you for the advice ❤
I'm assuming in those games most of them end up in losses right? I mention this before and players didn't want to believe me. Now I'm showing it happening even when approaching Champioin League. The way I use psychology on this Baby Account is my biggest weapon because I know most players don't know how to defend beacons.
@@adrianchong1v6 is always a lose situation, unless you’re unbelievably skilled.
@@Deus_wukong1468 You can win a 1v6 by going for beacons using Loki
😂😂😂Me too. I get irritated when all they want to do is spawn raid and get kills. I've been in losses where my team got more kills but didn't go for beacons. Once I got 19 beacons with my loki and we still lost because no one was defending beacons.
@@adrianchongwhat most people forget is even if a player is full meta as op as possible they can't be everywhere at once because of this teammates are important as an example if there is an op player in your team without you pushing beacons and helping them they can only do so much and this works other way around too. so help your team instead of trying to be a one man army
Love the baby account videos. Every one of them makes the day. The lessons learnt are very crucial as well. Look forward to the baby account videos a lot. Great one Adrian!
I'm a free to play player and I'm in the Champions League, yes it's true what you say, having a view of the map is very important to see the opponent's next move too
This is why War Robots really needs a tutorial for new players.
Psychology and solid tactics win games. Too many players just wanting to kill another robot with zero consideration for their teammates.
This topic could be even broader if you consider like what/when/where to drop your bots if the match is set to a stalemate, but what you've mention is the basic of a team-base game. Hangar composition is the first learning curve for sure, from there it all comes down to experience including the psychology of the game.
This one can be hard to touch on because strategies will vary depending on the map. Also it depends on what your opponents are running plus what your team is running at that moment.
Great tactics for old and new players with low level weapons/bots or high level weapons/bots.
Play smart and you dont have to shoot hard to win!
Yeah i also use the methods you mentioned and they work most of the times, even though I'm not maxed
Yup it works and it's very effective. It won't work all the time as no method or strategy is full proof but it definitely works more often than not.
13:37 i remember watching this live 😂😂 did you notice aswell that your teammate is using molots 😭
Yeah even he was pushing. He saw how the players were backing away and I followed too. Players are too afraid sometimes and I think it's more because they just don't want to lose their bots.
Adrian being a philosopher for once that he mastered the chi in war robots
I've actually always used psychology. I use it in Fortnite too with a very similar approach and strategy and have won many Crown Victories.
Wow. The things I wish I had known. It makes perfect sense.
This is a very important lesson to everyone.
Focus on the weapons more than the bots.
Almost all of your weapons are at LVL9
Yep. The levels of bots and weapons are all relative in most cases though. As I level up my bots then naturally I will run into much stronger hangars. What turns the tide in many games though is what I have showed.
Hey Adrian! Could you also give us a similar video for a hangar setup for early or mid-game players, like a combination of bots to use e.g. Tank + Healer + Beacon Capper + Type4 + Type5. Adding the basic module types if and when they have it. Thanks for your videos. 🤓
Adrian.. you can lead a horse to water, but you can't make it drink.
I wish I could ❤ this comment
Thank you adrian with this information this is gonna help me with my f2p account thanks
This is why i hate if some of the event quest need to deal dmg above 400m+ or so ,i like playing aggressive even tho my robot are stil mk1 and mk2 ,but just like you said ,the enemy dont know that i have low level bot ,by pushing them , you're gonna make them panic and afraid and make them go off the beacon ,but it depends on your teammates as well ,i always run in game where i use my strong robot to push and hold beacon ,but my teammates just hanging back without even helping or try to defend the beacon so that i can drop in there again ,when that happen i always stop using my powercell and try my best without using any heal and stuff
Yup and if more of your teammates start doing what I have shown in this video then the chances are you will win more. You have to understand too how match making works. If you've been winning for a while and have a high win percentage then the game will match you with much stronger players. This is how match making works unfortunately - it's the same in Fortnite which is another game I play. If I win in that game too much then it will put me against players that have been playing for years plus those that have crown wins. It will do this until I lose a lot then I'll start winning when it has found where I should be placed.
????
really good content, you are a great player.
Adrian, basics--people think that strong bots means you don't have to know strategy or tactics (which is actually true for those using One-Shot Newton builds--absurd), but it's incredible how many times I've seen guys literally next to white or red beacons and just milling around.
Can’t help but notice and point out only 1 drone was leveled. This is about the same for me right now as I am also a f2p player, the drone system needs a rework as it takes months simply to upgrade 1 level and then to max a legendary drone out is almost impossible. I have had a lv 11 kestrel drone waiting for upgrade token for months. This game needs a major overhaul…
hey Adrian this strat is really good. I have similar hanger mk1 level 6 and 7. I chased a lynx of a beacon using a crisis. :)
Thank you very much for your advice. They will be of great help to the guys who are starting to play.👍
lynx is one of the best robots for a free to play account since it can rush beacons execute enemy titans and ochos and lastly it is pretty good at surviving because of stealth and forcefield
It’s definitely another way of how to help your teammates with a budget hangar. At the same time try not to rage 😡 at players that don’t seem to understand that beacons are the win factor and not just kills. A very informative video, thank you. As for the baby account going in full meta gear would be interesting to watch as one of your hangar episodes 👍👍
Well Adrian your advice is working. But let's take a look at other perception when up against something like ocho and those rust weapons, it's not working anymore. Against rushing ocho with those rust weapons, keep dropping in on the same beacon to def is only suicide move even with strong tank like Fenrir or revenant or healer like mender or khepri. Bcs they simply lost their power to keep the HP bar n take more damage due to rust eff. Plus the immortal rushing ocho on the top of that. Unless you have the same meta items. I'm talking about 1 on 1 situation. The Meta is Just too OP lately. This is maybe one of many reasons players play range.
I think you have to understand that those Rust weapons are pretty broken by design because you just can't heal up. If I gave you an MK3 Ocho with the same rust weapons you may not even be able to hold down that beacon. At that point it's a matter of whether you have the right modules, pilot skills etc but also it will boil down to the timing of when you used your ability. Even then if the beacon was turned white you're actually at a big disadvantage because red team's stronger players will rush there - stronger players will fight for the white beacons. At this point it'll be you vs 2 or 3 other players which at that point is a lost cause if your team isn't there to help. The point I'm trying to make is that it's not all about the Ocho like players think - I've actually killed even Ochos that drop in at a beacon that were MK3 because I caught them JUST as they dropped in. If you're on a beacon and an Ocho charges and kills you, if you know your tank can't survive and your teammates are nowhere in sight, it's best to give that beacon up and push another beacon elsewhere. This is where the experience part comes in and it's something that's learned over time.
In the second game when I dropped in with my Demeter do you see how the Ocho just pushed me off? I knew at that point I was going to either lose my bot and the beacon I believe was already changing. However at that point the Ocho on my team rushed in to defend. At this point I decided to teleport to my teammates on our left beacon to deal with the Newton because they needed the extra firepower. If I had stayed on the lower beacon I would have most likely died and the Demeter would have been lost not contributing to my team in any way. It still died fast but I was at least able to shield my teammates at the top and provided a bit more firepower to deal with the Newton. The result? We killed both the Newton and Indra.
As for why players play range. These are generally the newer players as they don't feel comfortable at close range and probably don't want to lose their bots. However what they don't realize is that they're more likely to lose their entire hangar since they're giving up positioning on the map.
I posted something on Reddit early about this video and included a story as to why I play this way. It's definitely worth the read if you have time: www.reddit.com/r/walkingwarrobots/comments/197bjc5/the_secret_to_winning_more_with_a_free_account/
Now thats a adrian masterclass right there
"They rely on their robots more than their brains" - Loaf The III
unfortunate for me, i’m being held back by lag and can’t play the game normally due to it 😢
that's sad
Same man the lag ruined the game for me
I try ro pick older tanks so I get the higher hp and I don't have to worry about nerfs. The weapons you choose matter a lot as well as picking bots that fit your play style
Exactly, the majority enter Dominio but they play Deathmatch. Beacons mean nothing to most. They should always play in deathmatch
I know that a TON of players in this game don't even try to get/protect beacons, but you have to consider how we are seeing more and more players with maxed ochokochi/ophion players dropping down to low CL and below due to the same skill issues. This causes kinda causes us to face a bunch of ochos/ophions who will not fall for this trick because they know off the bat that we are MUCH weaker because we aren't running the same gear as them. You can just look at how long a maxed out fenrir survives with pilot skills and everything, and then just compare to and ochokochi of the conditions. Just look how quickly a rust ophion will shred through some of the strongest robots and titans in the game. This tactic works against people with maxed normal hangers, but people with maxed ochos/ophions will just see it as a free kill.
While a Rust Ophion or Rust Ocho can kill you fast, they can do that with other MK3 Rust Ophions/Ochos too. I still believe what I mentioned will be what turns the tide in most games. You have to remember I run into these players too with this account. However if red team isn't doing what I did and what I focused on they will lose because my team which also has that meta will over-run them.
When I'm running meta gear I don't focus on the weak specifically like you have mentioned. I focus on the ones preventing me from getting beacons that I need to win. I don't care whether you're a Fenrir or Ocho - if you're a threat I take you out. If you're running around capping beacons on me I have absolutely no way to prevent that loss unless my teammates pull their weight. Not even MK3 or a full meta hangar will help me win. This is unfortunately how it goes.
Also what you mentioned it's also psychology working against you. If you think that's what will happen all the time then you're actually sabotaging yourself because in your mind you've already lost before the battle has even started. Not sure if that makes sense. Those people with "maxed Ochos and Ophions" can't cover all the beacons by themselves. If their teammates aren't pulling their weight then they won't get a chance to use their meta on you.
A maxed ochokochi can certainly destroy any team of players who have lower power/level gear or the wrong gear/playstyle. I just played a game where an ochokochi singlehandedly defeated 5 players who were actively trying to defend with pretty decent brawlers. What where his teammates doing? All brainlessly firing into a skyros. While this shows that the league system seriously needs some changes because these were CHAMPIONS for gods sake, it also shows the ocho is way too powerful. Bad teamwork like this should be punished with a loss, yet the ocho still pulls through.
As for the psychology affecting me? It probably is, considering the amount of times I just see an ochokochi launch every single player defending home to the back of the map 30 seconds into the game. It really does seem hopeless when they toss you around like toys. Not even gonna speak about the newton and the titan zeus because we all know that setup is not right for this game
@@theprofessionalidiot1256 What I don't understand with what you mentioned - 5 players trying to defend against an Ocho. What about the other beacons? I'm not saying that Ocho is not OP or anything because I think even if there was a very tanky Fenrir I'm pretty sure your team of 5 would all still shoot the guy when they could have gone for other beacons. If you can't kill the Ocho then some of your team should have split up to go for other beacons that weren't guarded. The Ocho can't cover all the beacons at the same time.
The psychology is affecting you on many levels. You're feeling helpless no matter what you do but you also have to understand too that it's a team effort and sometime it's not all your fault. As a result of this game you then go into the next game thinking the same will happen and over time you'll actually lose more games because of this mindset. Back when I first started playing the game I remember I'd have so many losses sometimes - I think the most losses I've had in a row was over 20 but I can't remember the exact number. Back in 2014 we didn't have the player replacement system so when players left at the start they weren't replaced. On many occasions I had to take a 1 hour break or even a few hours because it became too frustrating - no matter what I did I just couldn't win and was so tempted to spend. Mind you when I did spend it was more for content back then but even then I would have similar losing streaks. I think this is when I realized too that spending wasn't really the answer and some things I just had to accept as a player and I really had no control over it. Even nowadays when I run my BR Account games can get so frustrating and you can hear it in my commentary too - not even having a maxed hangar sometimes even with Ochos in it makes a difference because you know the odds are so heavily against you.
Adrian you are definitely a talented player for a fact. I've watched your vids since early on in my WWR experience. 2015 I believe. I no longer play because of Pix' business practices. Too harsh IMO. Too much manipulation regarding MM. And the point I'm going to make is just that. Knowing their methods it's impossible to tell if they adjust MM for their accounts being used by content providers. I suspect they do. Once again it's not a slight regarding your abilities because you are one of the best players in the game sir. Along with Aygir.
I don't think they adjust things to my knowledge although I could very well just use your account and the same would apply. I actually use this strategy even in Fortnite and it works. Sometimes I wish I could log into players' accounts and use their hangar to prove my strategies but I really don't want that player to get banned for account sharing as that's against the game's terms of service.
In Fortnite though I've improved tenfold simply because I play aggressively - this is equivalent to me playing aggressively in War Robots (take the second game as an example). In Fortnite I do it because those that snipe generally are not comfortable in close range. When I face many of them they freeze up or make mistakes and that's when I capitalize on it. With Fortnite if you die then you're either out of the game or if you're in a squad you need to be rebooted or revived by teammates. With War Robots players are generally afraid of losing their bots and I think that's why they hang back - I use to be like this when I first started but had to change because I was forced to when the enemy was always in my home spawn. As a result I got over my fear of losing bots and as a result became a much better player.
Hi Adrian,
Quiet curious why don't you suggest skyros as beacon runner?? It has good firepower to kill enemies with high burst weapons, can also hold beacons for long time and also available in workshop.
I feel i support more to team win with my 2 skyros than a ravana and fenrier both in terms of kills and beacons as the later get killed in like seconds ....
I believe I've mentioned Skyros as one of the robots I would build in that series. The thing with Skyros though is that while you can get beacons your damage average tends to drop quite considerably. Also often times I find with Skyros players they're in their Skyros for too long - when they're in their ball mode their teammates are taking on crazy damage and losing bots. If you aren't paying attention to these things then even all the beacon running won't help since your team will be mech'd out.
However... if you find that you're able to do these things with your Skyros then I wouldn't listen to what I say. What works for you is actually more important. Hope this makes sense?
Your robots are certainly better than mine, really cool
i am at champions league as free to play and my recomendation for other free to play players is ignore the ocho spawnraiding and go for beacons because they will be so focused on raiding your base with all their power you will win by beacon controll just because they forget beacons it works every 5-6 rounds out of 10 rounds for me to win
When a group of heavy tanks push a beacon (whether Ocho or not), if you don't have the same tanks to match it's best to push another beacon to counter-balance the game. So many times I see players sit and watch the Ochos pushing their beacons together when they can be pushing other beacons that aren't even guarded.
There is a huge level of skill required and good teamwork to keep a consistent winstreak, but the biggest reasons why most players lose are:
●Enemy has exponentially higher level meta. You can have all the skill in the world but mute and ocho will sweep low levels.
●Its a 6 man squad. No counter to this, blueberries get shredded. Thankfully these are rare.
●Newton
●Hackers. They are alot rarer now days.
●Teammates suck, or bot out.
●Newton
●Teammates losing Titans early giving the enemy a huge advantage.
●Newton
●Teammates jumping off carrier
●Did i say Newton?
Ocho, Mute, Ophion and Newton will always be a problem in the game but as with everything else this meta will pass and a new one will develop. It will always be hard to play against a 6 man squad but also thankfully this doesn't happen too often. At least it hasn't happened often with me when I play on that Baby Account but also not too often on the BR Account either.
If you're playing a team game like Domination or Beacon Rush it'll be harder to maintain a high win percentage - this goes for whether you're on a free account or pay2win account which has full meta. That win percentage of yours will be determined by how much you're currently winning but also your teammates and their understanding of the game. For example you could have a 90% win rate because you were squadding with clan mates and then drop into a solo game. However... even with 5 maxed Ochos and a Newton you'll go down if your teammates don't go for beacons or protect it. If they don't you're running around like a mad man - you might even get 20 mil damage and maybe 15 beacons but will still lose. The game sets you up to lose when you're winning too much.
Although this isn't related to War Robots but I noticed in Fortnite they do the same thing. With Fortnite if I'm winning a lot the next night I might play for say 6 hours and only get 1 win. I remember one time I was winning a lot and the next day or so I had lost every game. I think it was about 10 hours of playing where I had lost every game lol. After that period was over then I started winning again only to plateau out and then the losses starting happening. I wonder if they use a similar type of match making because the behaviour is very similar.
First game you say ur team was hanging back but they legit all fighting just 1 bot.
I know that you only take dream hangers requests in dream hangers videos but In your next dream hangers video can you use the following free to play hanger i use in master League
Fenrir-ember/igniter
Lynx-Bane
Imugi-cryo/rime
Mender-scorcher/scald
Khepri-ksiphos
Titan=murometz-krait/basilisk
I only have the starter mothership could you tellme the best way to get a better one thanks so much

a Master lesson on how to be a good player.
Hello 👋🏽 Adrian
The team playing experience is deteriorating, we have more players with max hangers but haven’t learn the basics.
Yep. That's also why I think the lower level free accounts are running into them but eventually those maxed hangars face the true Champion League players and get steam rolled just like they do with the free players. At this point I'm guessing they spend more hoping it would change things but really it doesn't.
I like your tips but back when I was f2p I would drop my level 9 fenrir and defend beacons like you said. It got killed fast. I drop my titans. It dies. I botted out trying to defend that beacon. It was a 1v1 too. Level over skill. You can’t win if your enemy is too high leveled
The thing when you drop into your tanks you have to also evaluate what you're going up against. For example if there's two bots that are pushing the beacon you're defending it might not be a smart thing to drop there especially if you don't have help. Instead what I would do in this case is give up that beacon and push another beacon that's not guarded. You actually see me do this in the second game on Castle map. When I dropped in with my Demeter to defend I saw there was an Ocho which just used their ability. At that very moment my team's Ocho rushed in. However… knowing that my Demeter wouldn't survive I teleported to the top beacon to help my teammates rather defend against the Newton. This split second decision is something that players like you can also make but remember this also comes with practice. In your example where you say level over skill it doesn't always apply. If I were an Ocho that dropped in on that beacon it wouldn't have guaranteed that I would have held him off either - in fact if he caught me off guard I could have lost that Ocho straight away too.
I think a lot of players have convinced themselves that MK3 or having max level equipment is the way to win but it really isn't. I've done a TON of Dream Hangar videos and quite often even at max level the hangars suffer severely. Not because I don't know how to play it but because against aggressive players I can't hold down beacons - yes even when it's maxed out I run into these problems. The ONLY time I'm able to really hold down beacons is when I have more tanks. Sure it might be easier if it was MK3 but the bottom line is that tanks is what is needed. I rather have an MK1 level 12 Fenrir than to have an MK3 Fafnir that is flying around or even MK3 Ophion when it comes to holding a beacon down.
Great video! Can someone please help me find the track that starts as soon as the gameplay starts?
Good advice!
Hey at least adrian can still use Skill to beat players.😌👏
lol it's funny when players refer to skill. This game from the very start didn't really require THAT much skill in my opinion but more understanding how things work. These days it seems more about maths than anything else. I guess skill also means different things to different people depending on who you ask.
i realised you are not shooting ophions while they are landing but actually you should because even if it looks like they have sheilds they actually dont have sheild while landing
I actually was at one point because I noticed it but recently stopped when I noticed some still had their shields up and it was blocking my shots.
I’m really starting to believe my teammates are ai bots that are not real because the mistakes they make are unprecedented it’s like their playing for the other team
A lot of them are real unfortunately. I've had games on my BR Account for example where I might have insane damage like 18 mil and 15 beacons but will still lose. This is why I don't buy into the whole "pay2win" argument. Yes the game is pay2win to some extent as in it gives you more powerful equipment etc but out of the many games I've played most of my games weren't lost because of equipment levels. Most were lost because of the things I mentioned in this video. In fact it was so evident it backed up why my Baby Account would be able to win. Not all the time but more than usual if I did those things.
I think your whiteout drone maxed out should go on the ravana with those nearby weapons and because the ravana faster to walk closer to robots for the white out ability
Put white out on your ravana also. It's still viable in champ. It's an ocho😂thing killer
I was using my Whiteout drone on my Ravana before but moved it to Fenrir because I use that build for Extermination mode. I might buy another Whiteout in the future though.
Ngl, . . . For a moment, because you missed the word "out" first time in your comment, that this was gonna be a somewhat racist rant!! 😂😂😂😂
@@Phil_KaneONite_Wood fixed it😂😂😂
Even a champion league player could learn a lot from watching the tactics you use instead of mk3 smash!
You're baby account is now stronger than my account
Can't really be that much stronger. I don't play much on this account unless you mean based on league?
Good tutorial here but most commanders just want to stay alive and keep shooting from outside of a beacon circle and thus locking their defeat...
I am also in master and I will say even though I win often I just don't find it fun. The only fun I find in this game anymore is using my mender in tffa
What mothership are you using?
I drop reaper crisis in beacon rush first bot and it works
How did you get this much goldd??
I just saved it. I watch ads when I can, I also won some from the Black Market and I just save.
3:44 I like your videos. I keep wanting to hit the red dots. Meh. That’s me.
Bro u always plays beacon rush, domination is toughest now lol
I play Beacon Rush because my hangar is more suited for that. The only time I really play Domination is when I'm doing Dream Hangars. The reason? Most times the hangars I review have so much range that's the only mode that gives me a chance of actually getting footage.
Show some strats for domination next
The strategies I showed in this video actually originated from Domination. These are things I learned back in 2014 when I first started playing the game.
Hi Adrian
Do you think ravana will survive this year meta?
Yes and most likely future metas as well.
Hello Adrian, i have started a new account like your baby account but i am leveling up so fast and going up the leagues. i started around a month ago and still have 4 hanger slots with Gepard, Leo, Orochi & Fenrir which pixo gave these 2 as a gift, and my Kid titan and bots are all level 4, weapons levels 6 and 7, but i am in expert league! and many are tankers and have maxed stuff. i think i should make another new account and play only up to this level :D
14:28 it’s called giving a free kill
Adrian, what you usually do with your golds?
I use it to buy things like modules and speeding up upgrades if there's a discount. I need to look at other areas though because my gold is building up fast.
Psychology ? Adrian you're a therapist now ? I didn't know lol . But seriously , I have a book about psychology lol . The video title kinda surprised me a bit lol
Why would it surprise you? This is what I do on my Baby Account. Players always asking me how is it I win so much - this is what I'm doing. I'm not hiding anything.
Its all good, but the opponents are also watching this💀
Nah. Those are usually the ones who tell me I don't know what I'm talking about. They're the stubborn ones (and believe me there's a lot of them).
I just have a full hanger of lynx
It also depends on when you play if you in the mornings east coast you won’t win much because the the Chinese and Japanese are real good
This I can definitely agree on. This goes back even to 2014. I know when I play in the mornings I run into a lot of squads and also Asian players as there are less players online in North America. Japanese and Chinese players (the legit ones) have very good teamwork. I still have the scars from during the Spectre meta when we got schooled by a team from Japan. These guys weren't even running meta but their teamwork was so good that we (VØX) got schooled in like 4 minutes on moon. The fact that I still remember which map and meta goes to show you how well I remember that battle lol.
How can you get motherships bro?..i just keep spinning using tokens they don't even give fragments..lol..i just have dreadnought mothership😂
pls.adrain can you tell me how to get a titan repair amplifier for free without money becuse my luchador is useless is without a tra or titans repairs amplifier
I think the only way might be through Black Market. I'd have to check the prizes there but I usually just save up all my keys and do an opening at the end of each season.
@@adrianchongthere are no titan repair amplifier in the black market if you wanna tell mee how to get a titan repair amplifier
pls tell me 🙏
@@Ash_wr Sorry thought you mean't Repair Amplifier for regular robots. I think Titan Repair Amplifier you can only buy in offers for now.
They should punish any player intentionally deranking with mk2 and mk3 bots
What do you do if you dont have powercells Adrian😢
If I don't have Power Cells then I just don't use them. If I'm using them for things like healing then instead of using Advanced Repair/Repair Unit I'll use Mechanic or Wonderworker skills.
We have the same problem. They don't even care the game they just want kills.
Notice how you almost spend almost as much time spectating than playing. I bot out like once every 20 games
Yes, it's 6 vs 6 and every one have to do his job
I think it could work in low leagues, but in master it's relative, I'm master league with a no meta MK2 hangar and more than a half of battles the game puts me against champion, RUclipsrs and leyend league and no strategy or skill can face the actual meta, if your team doesn't have an equal player your are lost
My Baby Account is actually in Master 2 but I know many others who have free accounts in Champion League who use very similar tactics/strategy to win games. Sure in their case they have MK2 but that's not the reason why they're winning - they're winning because they're applying the things I mentioned in the video.
As for your team not having an equal player. I'm not sure how things are done now but I believe if there's two Champion players on your team and the rest Master then the red team is usually the same. I'm not sure what you're running in your hangar but if you're in Master League and the same server as me we might have even crossed paths already.
Tactics over power...
Hey Adrian, so i want so much to reach lv 27 , so if you could help me to reach it i would be so thankful .
Hello adrian
Im too in master and i have a f2p account but i have a mk2 mars and a lvl 9 fenrir with devastator and spike weaphons
Thanks for the advice man ❤
Can you play with me please ?
Im same your level
Extremely expensive game to play. I keep exiting until I don't see an Ochocochi, which has ruined the game; not to mention the BS stealth, useless drones, and aerial attacks.
At least tell us about the tanks please
It's a mystery why peeps play beacons when they don't care about beacons lol
Pls I only have 11 lvl 😢😢😢❤
This kind of content is wrong, because it makes noobs believe that with low level robots they can face guys with maxed hangars and emerge victorious, this is what pixonic is looking for, that they go up and up with weak hangars, and reach a point where they cannot They have no other option but to pay to get better things... stay in your league, don't go up the league without having the necessary level, from diamond/expert you have to have things already at MK2, don't go up with weak hangars.
I am not arguing with your content Adrian, but there are many who do not use their heads to think of strategies to play, many new players do not know how to capture beacons and you almost always have to carry them, or they make you lose the games, because they definitely do not know how to play, and they move up the league thanks to Pixonic, which moves anyone up the league, not to mention that the game does not have a tutorial where they are taught WELL how to play... not to mention that you are not going to compare the years that you have been playing, With the months that the noobs have been there and they are already stepping into high leagues, without having the necessary hangars or knowing how to play, what is wrong here is the method that Pixonic has to raise the new ones up the league.
There's actually two ways we can go about it. I can just show overpowered equipment and say this is why I win (when really it isn't) or I can show that I'm able to win with lower level equipment which is what most want to see too. You say "this is what Pixonic is looking for" but the other way is actually worse. Players who spend but don't know this stuff will think the reason why they're losing is because they don't have enough meta. They will keep spending and spending wondering why it's not working and eventually will call it quits OR spend even more. This isn't really good in that it eventually affects the quality of the games especially in Champion League as you end up with players who have the equipment but really don't understand the game.
Would you rather have a player that's maxed out on your team but doesn't know how to play or a player that isn't maxed out but knows how to play? The "noobs that are stepping into high leagues" are usually the ones who have the equipment but don't know how to play yet. This is also why the gameplay experience has deteriorated so rapidly over the past year. What they need to do is raise the cups further and make it harder to get to Champion League. My Baby Account should really only be Expert League maybe at the highest with that equipment so for me to meet Masters it just goes to show you how much the game has deteriorated in terms of players and their understanding of the game.
Also you mentioned from "Diamond/Expert" you have to have things at MK2, don't go up with weak hangars. The thing is I'm just playing normally - this is way beyond my control what you're asking me to do. For me to drop down I basically shouldn't play then or I should tank. Unfortunately I don't tank and don't leave games. It's also not my fault if players don't go for beacons and I just climb the leagues.
Well, precisely for that reason I tell you, I am not criticizing your content, what is simply wrong is that Pixonic increases the players so quickly, at no time did I talk about farmers or tankers, I simply tell you that that hangar is not in its place. league.
I think this is actually very hard to do right now because they need to tackle the cheaters/hackers first then the tankers. Only once they've actually done that can they really tweak things in terms of league. The problem though too is that hacking and cheating seems to be at insane levels not just in this game but it seems in other popular games too. I actually think the gaming industry as a whole is really suffering right now because of the lengths that cheaters are going to in order to exploit games. We're not even talking about cheating using things like VPNs but rather installing hardware so that they can't get caught.
So while you may not agree with my Baby Account (which is fine btw since I know players will have different views on it), I still think it represents most. I face higher level players too and for a player who doesn't spend, I'm showing what others can do to make their hangar the most effective without actually spending. If it forces me to play against maxed out players then I show that too (as is shown in the video).
If I were to manipulate the system and drop leagues so that I get "easier" opponents with similar level equipment I would consider that even worse content. Why? Because I'm showing players how to exploit the system and I woudn't be preparing them for the challenges ahead. I rather know what to expect so that I can plan ahead than to one day just get slaughtered and realize what I've been building just doesn't work at all. Not sure if that makes sense?
Also what you mentioned with Pixonic adding players so fast is definitely a problem. I think the game has changed to where players are getting insane offers and with that they're climbing through the leagues incredibly fast to the point where some are in Champion League with only 1000-1500 victories. The issue I have with this is that the quality for Champion League players has plummeted so the experience actually gets way worse the higher up you climb no matter if you spend simply because the players don't understand the game well at those levels (when really they should).
your free to play acc is 10x worse then my free to play account its extremley easy and nothing special the thing that holds you back is the new and broken shenlou ...
Well it should be 10x worse because I only play 2-4 hours a month. Most play that in a day. I also don't enter giveaways and don't join clans. Why? So that I have an idea of the worst possible scenario that a free player goes through. The Shenlou won't hold me back like you think. I've dealt with Ochokochis on this account and Shenlou is no different.
I think players really don't understand the purpose of this account which is understandable especially if they are new to my channel. When I started this account many players were convinced it was impossible for a free player to advance. These same players were also convinced that I had no skill and needed MK3 equipment. What they underestimated was just how well I know the game and how experience was going to carry me through.
Before I started this account I mentioned in the comments section that even if I started an account from scratch and took it to Champion League it wouldn't prove anything because those same players that were accusing me of not having skill and things not being possible will give me another excuse. Well... I started it from scratch and everyone was happy - in fact it was enjoyed by all. But… as I started to build my hangar and win robots the hate started to pour in. In fact the worst performing video on my channel with almost 800 dislikes was a Baby Account video where I demonstrated how I used low level robots vs high level robots. I'm not sure if that was the one where I reached Champion League as well.
What would happen if I did this experiment again? Nothing… I would achieve the same results although I would get there faster since there are more ways for me to get resources now. Just remember, I only play this account 2-4 hours an entire month - most play this in a day therefore they should be miles ahead of me. If they aren't they are doing something wrong.
There is no psychology infront of ochos.. also newton just lifts and that's it you can't do anything
Ochos it will be harder but if you can't defend that beacon then push another beacon. The reason why you want those beacons early on especially is because if the enemy drops in with Newtons, if you're close to enemy spawn then your Luchadors, Rooks, Minos and Indras will be more effective. I've been in quite a few games where we had beacon control and I was able to wipe out 3-4 Newtons with my Luchador because I was right in their spawn.
I think the crisis is very weak when it loss its stealth mode ,so its crucial to warship northstar
Wow I've my team mates are bad im a beast and rightfully so, these team mates basically of mine dont protect me at all, tbh today was the first time in many years they'd helped me but im always the first out but i still get to number 1 or 2nd thats how bad they are jokers your ment to look after each other aint you
👋🎮Hi adrian🎮🔝👋
This is a bad game with completely P2W mechanics. I played it for 7-8 years, but with so much complicated things they've added, modules, pilots, drones, ship, and I don't know what else. Am I playing a mech battle game, or a mech manager game, I don't know. I don't need so much complicated stuff on a mobile game.
I forgot to tell you my user name is .《¤》.
the idea is to be an aim .
Remaster pos pixel did better aand inhate there guts .. as soon as u get through the first 12 matches you basicaly lose em all .. I got 2 bots lvl1 up against fukin premium lvl 10 bots not even 2 hours into the game
Third 0:10
i hope wr pays you Something for all this mambo-jambo. Evryoane know only strategi in wr is money and greed of wr owner/team. if You whit this account kill a full ochikochi mk3 then i will belive your "strategi"
Sofrível 😂
Not really. I actually hit 76% win rate. The only ones who will be "suffering" are the ones I'm going up against. They're the ones giving me more resources because they don't protect their beacons.
First ig
This guy knows nothing about winning with a free account. The secret is to pay to win. Your league is capped based on the strength of your wallet, bots and equipment not your psychology.
expect this to be another video that has around 700 dislikes lol
of course it's all coming from those "all about money" keyboard warriors 😃
Yep it'll probably happen - these are usually the stubborn players that refuse to believe these things even though I show them step-by-step, in some cases live stream it to them (no cherry picking as it's done live) and they still don't believe it. Not that it matters. Also… I use this strategy in Fortnite too. There's a reason why I have over 200 Crown Victories so far. I play aggressively because I know players freeze up and panic. They might even be more experienced than me but many don't handle aggression well. This is also why brawlers will win most times over campers no matter the map nor the game mode.
Consistently I end up the only remaining player on my team after the first 50% of the game my team has a good beacon lead then it all goes to pot 😅 any advice please?
I think actually sometimes when this happens there might even be someone on red team cheating. I've heard of subtle hacks where some players will use it to crash other players so that they win. I'm not sure if this is true but it would explain too why so many are leaving all of a sudden in some of our games. If you're the only one left too, are you perhaps running too much range or maybe have a Skyros in your lineup? I'm asking about the Skyros because I often see players using Skyros and staying in that bot for too long - if you see your teammates suffering heavy losses then it's best to get out of Skyros and help them defend. Not doing so results in your team meching out and you're the only one left.
