MoltenMetal (pilot name 'baradul') has loads of good video's. Even in his daily videos where he tries out a certain build on a certain mech he always takes the time to explain why he's making certain decisions. In addition, afaik he always keeps his cool, even when losing or getting wrecked he stays calm and points out what would have helped prevent it.

I'd say his videos are worth it for not only beginners but also intermediate players that want to learn extra stuff. And they're worth it to everyone for simple enjoyment.

So true. I really enjoy his videos and calm demeanor makes for nice casual viewing. You can support him on Patreon too!

Totally agree. MM/ Baraduls videos are worthwhile for new and veteran players alike.
Also for lore stuff and some gameplay videos Critical Rocket is the guy to watch.
For more in-depth stats on mechs like tonnage, hardpoints (spreadsheet warrior) and things regarding upcoming mechs/ mech packs and other things, Kanajashi is the comrade to go to for that.

Others woth checking are OldBob 10025 and M4J3ST1C

This is an interesting video. I didn't know about half of these things. I could certainly use more 'Mechs Bays but, HA, Faction Play? I'm terrible, and don't want to be responsible for somebody losing a whole planet.

Some of the information (such as some of the missile tube counts) is a little out of date... but overall a good video to show to every new player.
