dude I am so happy for you that you actually got to play MVM with like, tolerable human beings. I've only ever done the Two Cities tour and that's like trying to play chess in a baboon enclosure.

This is another level of entertainment. Altough Kelski isnt a tf2-tuber, he sure is a great addition to this community

"It is just a mode about shooting robots no need to go hard on the soundtrack" Mike Morasky: 🔥🔥🔥🎹😎🎹🔥🔥🔥

Fun fact, ghost town was released prior to the 2 cities update. And medic didn’t have the projectile shield until that update. Imagine trying to do that without a medic…

Kelski is literally one of the best tf2 players

After a decade of playing MvM, I wish I could experience playing MvM for the first time again

worth pointing out that you can play the gamemode without paying, you just dont get any reward for it (other than the joy of having played a round of MvM)

The way the tour thing works is that if you do all the missions in a single tour, you get the chance to get a reward, depending on the tour will change the rewards you get, the one that everyone usually goes for is 2 cites because that gives you a chance for Austraiums and killstreak kits, which have the highest chance to be worth money, hope this helps at all, enjoy the joys of mvm :3

3:39 that sniper realizing he has a worse case of a newbie than he thought lol

These last few days have been some of the most stressful and depressing of my entire life and this video really brightened up my day. Thank you Kelski. Also helping to push you across that ghostly finish line was an absolute blast.

If you don’t want to pay, play boot camp

Bot killers aren’t just charms, they’re strange. they track all of your kills

6:35 There I am (Potato Chip Bag Air) The Engie Man. I wasn’t running the Rescue Ranger at the time (which helps save sentries easier), but I always try to lead and early detonate away from my dispenser and teammates. Best Tip: save a building canteen in case things get dicey. If a buster blows your sentry up, make a new one with the canteen and you can be fine to slay more robots. Glad to help you in a match. Hope to play with you again!

Kelski quickly becoming one of the better TF2 content creators and it’s not even the primary game he plays on his channel 🔥

Rise and shine Mr. Freeman, Kelski dropped yet another banger of a video!

Pretty fun seeing an MvM newbie join the war effort against robots! Definitely try out two-cities sometime, I myself have around 50 tours in it lol, definitely feels a bit different. And congratulations on the Ghost Town victory!

These videos are so funny! Seeing people join our community even when it is completely abandoned warms my heart. Keep making these videos we love them!

You dont need tickets to play MVM but you wont receive any drops should it be a weapon. a cosmetic or robot parts also in future don't use Heavy or Engi against tranks because they have a bullet resistance of 75% if I remember correctly so Pyro, Soldier and Demo are the best option Besides that for each class you need weapons that are very usefull in MVM and make things easier for you, anyways have fun and good luck on getting an Australium :)

it's been a long while since i've played tf2, and seeing this just made me so happy because of the joy you guys had whilst playing. you explaining every last detail of your experience and what you have learned is so interesting and the way you use your humor with it, is absolutely entertaining. i think you mentioned the making of the videos and editing was fun for you, which made me have the idea of how you doing things behind the scenes or the effort that went behind these vids. you giving it your all in these videos, is just so amazing and i really am excited for your future and growth in this year. thank you kelski for another video that made me have lots of smiles and laughter 🔥

Kelski Intro's never cease to meet expectations 11:51 It's back, LETSGOOO!

The feeling of completing ghost town for the first time is so special. I'm a fellow mvm addict andI play ghost town all the time cos the other maps doesnt give me the same hardcore feeling. Even with mute f2ps, its possible to complete it as long as all the players are competent

5:04 mvm in a nutshell

"Killing Elden Ring boss with just your fists" *Dark Souls 1 bosses appears*

Despite playing TF2 quite a bit, I've never touched this mode because every person I've met who plays this mode regularly is an ass. But, I'm happy that you were able to experience it with some cool people!

Man I can tell that you'll blow up on youtube very soon. Videos are as fun and engaging as always!

this makes me want to play Mann Up again, thanks for this! Oh, and welcome to Mann vs Machine, hope you enjoy your stay!

I agree, Wave 666 is something every TF2 player should try at least once

your videos have singlehandedly gotten me into TF2 again. love your content man keep it up 👍

hearing a kid talk on TF2 is just beatifull, that means the game has young hope.

you should go into detail about how 9/10 times you end up with intolerable "people" who either kick you or bully you into leaving because you DARED to not go with the perfect meta

MvM is genuinely one of the most enjoyable gaming experiences out there. Brings me back to my younger days playing Bloons TD in the computer lab at school, where I'd always go for the corner seat so I would be able to play games without being noticed... but this time it's real, it's in 3d, and it's just as badass as my little brain imagined. Getting the urge to slaughter robots, enlisting the help of a few friends, and meeting up with a random or two in one of the many locales, to mow down hordes of metal invaders. It's really fun if you have a communicative team, especially if you're playing with friends, though any good-natured (and/or high-skilled) group of randoms works just fine. Don't play Oil Spill or Steel Trap. You can't get Australiums from Oil Spill and Steel Trap is more expensive than Mecha Engine and Gear Grinder and isn't all that much easier, whilst also being far less played (and you have an exactly 0% chance to get a good player). Don't use the Tomislav, as its firing speed penalty is very harsh in a mode where DPS is key.

I love your videos man they’re really cool and well done

i think its true that Kelski is a real MANN Co. Mercenary

When I saw Gaben himself in the the thumbnail I knew this was gonna be a good one

i am foaming at the mouth from the fact you said its pay to play, then proceeded to play wave 666, a wave only available on boot camp, the FREE version of mvm

9:40 Scout: I'm back baby Also Scout: "blows up"

Your comedy genius really came through in this video.

My favorite part was when kelski said "its kelski'ing time"

i think tours have different missions with different rewards, like the oil spill tour is most likely to reward with rust botkillers while two cities is most likely to reward with australiums

kelsi really is one of, if not the funniest man I've ever seen :) congrats on the vid man! :D

You DON'T have to pay to play MVM.... [thats only if you want the chance of earning the stuff]

Amazing video to brighten the day! but seriously if you play heavy dont fire on the roofs or on the top of the buildings

AmAzing way to describe the game! Also could you post a video of your gameplay with mvm that would be worth watching!:D

Great video!!! I hope you know you can play Mann vs. Machine without buying any tickets or anything though, the only difference being you won't get any items at the end! I'm cheap so that's how I've always played lmao.

Will you be willing to do a meme vs machine community maps

Perdi todo mi inventario en el modo Mann Up 💀, al menos la diversión no faltó.

Yo bro every time i go deep down to your channel I realize how newer and newer valve player you are It makes me happy and hurts my soul as well that there are still players who are living without Valve to this day

Oh man, can't wait for you to play some Community MvM Missions! There's some crazy stuff going on there, I'll be glad to join :)))))

Great video! I get that you're probably not looking to become a reaction channel and you can just watch these in your own time if you haven't already, but please make sure you see the cinematics for this game. The most important ones are 'Meet the Team' (compilation of nine separate 'Meet the [Class]' videos that act as trailers for the game, of various length, and also one gag 'Meet the Sandvich' trailer), 'Expiration Date' (really cool promo/tie-in cinematic for a major update a decade ago, and the source of most of the bread-related jokes & Easter eggs in the game) and finally 'End of the Line' (a really awesome *fan-made* short story cinematic that was at the heart of a community content update, and even though Valve totally fumbled the update the video is incredible). I left out the promo videos related to Mann v Machine as you have used them here so I assume you've seen them in full already even if you didn't understand what they were all about. I personally find it funny how in one of those they show Heavy giving Demoman a shotgun when he doesn't use shotguns in-game, or in fact any bullet/hitscan weapons at all. And if *that* only makes you hungry for more, check out what the Saxxy Awards were. Truly amazing stuff. SFM gets used for something other than porn!

Nice video like always thanks Kelski

Your gonna easily hit 500k this year. keep it up your content is amazing

you know its disrespect when a robot spy taunts on you

8:10 Become Engineer gaming :fistbump:

There's also custom mvm servers just as there are pvp ones. There's machine attacks, the awfully made campaign mode you can sometimes find while searching community servers and also the superior potato's tf2 custom mvm tours which are a goddamn blast, I recommend you look em up. Only problem is that they are held like few times a year, sometimes not at all. Best place to spot em is usually at the news section of tf2 on steam

I've never in my life seen another person using the "how do you feel you did in PE today?" meme. Thank you for being the first, it was succulent.

Ayo, that master chief spray

having beaten the wave some 6 times: one of the keys is making sure the bomb is still on the map before crit soldiers have spawned so it disappears when they have already come in then you take them one at a time also not once have I seen a credit rating above C in there and even that was a miracle

Killbinds are like the perfectly cut screams to animations.

I love MVM, I play only Caligneous Caper and I love to see a new face appear and try MVM's hardest! A tip: As a phlog pyro, aim up when tankbusting! The flame particles nearest your gun do the most damage, yet the oldest particle determines damage. So looking up ensures that most of your flame particles on the tank deal high critical damage

"You have to pay to play this mode?!" Bootcamp: 😢

"Propably sitting in the toilet right now" I thought he was talking directly to me

I love that when you were showing fan art , a random demoman charge and shout " AaAAaAaAAAAAAH!"

i remember playing tf2 for the first time then going to mvm we dont talk about how i used a fully upgraded rocket jumper to fight robots

So glad to see more people try this game and have fresh genuine experiences.

7:59 you're incredibly based man lmao. Fujimoto really did levitated while was writing the Firepunch. Btw, just wanted to remind you- 𝗟𝗜𝗩𝗘

ok that transition in the opening was really good

Sitting on the toilet GOT DAMN Might as well be eating this shitass cream of bacon soup (Good video, was fun to watch, its cool seeing someone learn the ins and outs over time!)

if you want to try any tour, I cannot not recommend 2 cities. It's a pretty fun tour and you also get cool killstreak kits from it. Good if you like smashing your skull into a wall for an hour! would reccomend!

I don’t know if you want this, but there are multiple channels that teach players how to play TF2 and also there are community maps for it, although most of them are jump academies (where you learn how to rocket jump).

i remember my first ghost town (also know as wave 666) the first time i won there was with demoknight because it's so easy to max him out and as long you have more bots you can fuel you endless crit cycles

That into killed me LMAO

Amazing like always kelski

12:44 :] I see... That's why you guided me into watching this at that moment, universe

the fact that you actually called everyone (including me) out who was on the toilet is hilarious

“You can upgrade your banana, I think they have pills for that actually” 😭💀💀💀💀

i like that i'm not the only folk who first tried tf2 and started to enjoy it in the last month!

this guys been living under a rock lol

Twas really fun playing with you, didn't know you'd actually post this! I was the Heavy from the Expert mode run, Angel the Eevee! Hope that we can talk some more sometime soon!

5:08 wolf edit made me laugh way too hard

Watching fresh installs try to play expert missions is always a sight to behold.

I was unprepared to see the sheer intensity of the thumbnail

good vid like always

Yo new Kelski video? hell ya

The dispenser goes here!

You have to pay, to PLAY. Boot camp: am I a joke to you

I actually played Mann Vs Machine once but there was only sniper robots who spinning around and instanly headshot anyone in their way.

Portal 2 just exited the room

I want to tell you about a specific strategy because once you learn it youll never want to do anything else- Sniper is the best tank shredder next to pyro, and he can be an smg scout in MVM. It just takes two weapons. The Cleaner's Carbine, and the Bushwacka. The cleaner's carbine is an smg weapon that, with enough damage dealt, can activate mini crits for yourself for several seconds. The bushwacka turns all mini crits into normal high power crits. You can upgrade, damage, swing speed, firing speed, and ammo capacity. You can then abuse the shit out of it by dealing like, 4x185 damage per second. Don't even have to whip out the sniper rifle. Don't do this on high tours unless youre with friends but its some of the most meme induced fun ive had being an anorexic crit monster melee scout in a snipers skin.

i will always make it a tradition of if a robot ever delivers the bomb, i will throw myself at it just as it explodes so i never give the robots the pleasure of gunning me down helplessly.

Good shot mate

man vs machine is amazing especially with friends or players that are smart and talk alot between waves

realising a ticket gets you one game and not a whole tour was the biggest dissapointment 10 year old me ever experienced

The euphoria one will get when it’s constant bot eliminations is unrivalled.

I played on the dusttown map (this was my first time playing mann vs machine) and I LOVED IT

You can change you hitsound to whatever, however long you want it to be. The whole Better Call Saul Theme? Hell YEAH you can do that!

One thing i miss doing is just exploring trade servers and messing around with friends. Its weirdly cathartic to just dome your friend from across a nether portal.

Yet another way for me to procrastinate school work. Thank you kelski

Out of a year and half of playing tf2, I've only managed to beat wave 666 once out of twenty

Fun fact if you want to play MVM and not pay. Once you are in the map list your ticket on steam market and that way you have entry, but it will not be used up at the end of the round. My friends poured so much money into MVM and I have been using the same MVM ticket for nearly 4 years. I list it at $5 in the off chance someone buys is so I can make some profit. As someone who has just broke the 7,200 hour mark in this game it warms my heart to find people like you still discovering it.

First match of mvm and last wave in the bomb deploying animation, WE GOT IT :D
