He Dropped Two Vulcans Round Two! Mustangs Hacker to the Top 500: 1v1 Ranked Mechabellum (Ep. 8)

[@herpderp9774]

Poor bugger ran into a perfect counter to his cookie cutter cheese build, haha!

[@WhoopedGG]

I respect the attempt. Kind of funny we were placing down Hackers though haha 🤣

[@ratt_hehe]

RAWR (I didnt know what to say lol)

Lets go boys, nice to see Whooped lay down the game. You you also stream Mr. W?

[@WhoopedGG]

I don't stream atm. I only make videos on YT

[@stoneymechabellum]

YEAH HAX!

[@BLOODKINGbro]

Brutal supremacy

[@ARCAGNELL0]

I find myself having a very good time with Hackers (I'm about 1800 MMR) starting with standard play Arclight carries, and when Arcs get range and ideally either marksman or EMP I then add Hackers which will get all the paralyzed units on my side. I usually also get mustangs but they're just for AM+Range and I almost never level them up, they're long range chaff for the Arclight+Hacker carry mostof the time!

[@WhoopedGG]

Interesting! I'll have to try this

[@EIixir]

Got the feeling the opponent didn't even try to counter. Like they had blinkers on.

[@WhoopedGG]

That would have been frustrating if I dropped two Vulcans on round 2 without even borrowing and the guy dropped two Hackers lmao

[@cameroncreagh4517]

I am currently 1800MMR and had a good hacker /mustang / chaff board going. My opponent sold out of sabertooth and went heavy into overlord. By the 7-9th round my shields couldn't hold against overlords with launcher overload. My question: Is Overlord one of the best counters to mustang hacker? I know it's situational but it's good to know when Mustang Hacker is effectively being countered.

[@WhoopedGG]

Without seeing the game--and in general (because Mech is such a situational game), I've always felt like Mustangs are a great counter to Overlords. Things can get a little dicey when they get three-teched with Range, LO, and HE. But as long as you have a few Marksman or Farseer to apply EMP and/or enough Mustangs with Range and AA (maybe even AP), you should be good.

[@groundhog-plays]

I see people rush early vulcs and I don't get it. OK they counter early game chaff. But it just seems so like.. If it was viable then the game would be in a really bad state.

[@WhoopedGG]

It can be tough to deal with sometimes I suppose. Unlucky for him I called it round one. :D

[@jox7432]

Personally, i do not enjoy the games versus inferior opponents as much. The strategies are fun, but game-understanding wins the game any day of the week and your opponents just cant keep up in that regard so its less thrilling for me than your other videos.

[@WhoopedGG]

Thanks for the comment, Jox. I totally understand where you're coming from. Our goal for the Mustangs Hacker series is to get higher. We're slowly climbing 😁
