Wow, genuinely amazed by the amount of traction this meme has been getting. I also didn't know people still loved FTL as much as I do. Thanks for all the nice comments. I try to read them all. I've made another video like this on Crystal B.
I like burst lasers with fire beam on pre igniter. Start of the fight their entire ship is on fire lol. And targeting the rooms with crew in them reduces their hp enough that they wont try to fight a fire
If I had a bug man for everytime I encountered a bug man called robert smith who thought he was human and was deathly afraid of other bug men, I'd have two bug men. Which isnt alot but its weird that it happened twice
Stealth B is also a pre igniter dream. My 3rd best score run was in Stealth B and I named the ship "pre-igniter pls". Got over 6000 which is a really high score for me
I think the best setup I ever got was 2x chain Vulcan, weapon pre-igniter, and stealth weapons. You get 10 seconds while my weapons ramp, and then you're toast.
I think this is the first time I have seen a FTL TH-cam video recommended to me. Love the game ,so many evenings at the university playing. Long live the mantis boarding ship
Remember, it's only hubris if you lose ;) Seriously this was great, FTL's visuals don't naturally go well with this kind of video but your editing really made it work. I could feel your pain in those Zoltan fights, and the dramatic power spike from 9:09 onwards was so satisfying to watch
FTL sensory overload is... an experience. Thanks for putting it together, domination runs like this are always fun, and I'm sure it was quite the effort shoving hundreds of memes into an FTL video and making it honestly funny
I once got a second Glaive beam and weapon preigniter on stealth cruiser B by sector 2 and proceeded to split the entire game in two. It was the greatest of all godruns
"Oh cool an old FTL montage" *Helldivers 2 Difficulty image* HOLD UP I'm glad this game is still getting the attention it deserves. Also that first streak up until the Zoltan fight really sums up a lot of FTL. Either you sweep the ships effortlessly, or they turn into painful slogs that you literally just stop micromanaging and just accept the 5+ hull damage because the game clearly decides you're not sweeping now. This reminds me of 2 great pre-igniter runs I had. One ended with 2 Flak II and 2 Flak I, which was basically a speedrun as everything died in 1 or 2 shots. The other one ended with 3 burst laser II, I did have 4, but I found a Vulcan Chain Laser and couldn't resist. Once somethings shields were down they never came back up.
It's a good feeling to have after watching a video where the only thing you'd change is for there to be more of it. Absolutely fantastic video man! I'm now crossing my fingers and going to your channel to hopefully find more.
I appreciate a meaner who has a complex understanding of meme culture as well as the game that they are meaning. Premium content absolutely looking forward to more.
The editing in this video had me laughing and engaged the entire time. Amazing work. Also my favorite weapon set up is 2 burst 2's and a glaive so thats awsome aswell.
Anybody else bothered by the fact that the engi was assigned to babysit the shield room instead of manning doors? "What is my purpose?" "You watch a rock press the recharge button and maybe fix something if he sucks at his job." "Oh my god." Edit: Rip da rock. Born to man a system, forced to rotate.
Awesome edit! I'm glad to see people still playing FTL. If i could give you a reccomendation, there is a communuty made mod manager as well as a community edition calles "FTL:Multiverse" which you might enjoy! And also another thing, thank you for putting the music in the description. A lot of people just out music in and i cant find it because there is no source
Haha, loving the hubris sideshow. That really captures the soul of FTL runs, of running the line/gauntlet of having enough power to defeat the endgame or of burning to bright too soon.
Commenting so the algorithm spreads this video further in the hopes that the success will make you make more of them, as I need more quality shitpost gameplay in my life.
ROFL jesus christ this montage is a masterpiece I just "finished" (aka lost) another painstaking hard mode run and decided it would be time to hit youtube to see if I could find some tips, only to find people struggling in the same ways unless you get an insane combo out of nowhere and just shit on things. The editing and inside jokes in this video really hit home lol, nice work
"Oh, hey, you accidentally listed Smith twice on the crew list" "Uh, no. They had two smiths" "Oh, really? I only met the mantis one that thought it was human" "They're both a mantis who thinks they're human." "... you're just trying to fuck with me, aren't you"
My ADHD isn't severe enough to enjoy this video, ugh. Also FTL came out 12 years ago, christ we're getting old. PS: Check out Little V Mill's FTL cover if you haven't heard it. Was how I woke up every morning for years; absolutely phenomenal work.

Excellent editing my guy, absolutely subscribed for more
great video megubro
It has not the best graphics but it's clean, atmospheric, fair and addictive.
Ok but now you HAVE to do a video on FTL Multiverse!
Play Multiverse. Great Mod.
It feels unnatural to get FTL presented in modern meme formats
"The Pre-Ignitor side of the game can lead to many memes some would consider... unnatural."
_exaggerated anime shock noises_
Most of these memes... they are ancient! Does this guy know...!?
@@ferociousfeind8538I mean a helldivers 2 reference is hardly ancient. But all the same, FTL predates most of the old memes too
True
@@mattcrofthonestly that one made me look at the upload date, I didn't realize it was so new. Genuinely surprised
4 flaks with preigniter, most enjoyable FTL experience.
I cast SHOTGUN!
Federation C ship and 2 Mark II Flaks.
Unleash the Flaken
For his neutral special, he wields a GUN
I like burst lasers with fire beam on pre igniter. Start of the fight their entire ship is on fire lol. And targeting the rooms with crew in them reduces their hp enough that they wont try to fight a fire
@@everythingsalright1121 and later you hit only the crew
Did something similar but with the burst laser (the one that shoots 3 for 2 power).
As a smart Ork would say:
“NEED MORE DAKKA”
Thank you Smith and Smith for the expert work.
I didn't know Smith and Smith could even happen! Wild stuff
If I had a bug man for everytime I encountered a bug man called robert smith who thought he was human and was deathly afraid of other bug men, I'd have two bug men. Which isnt alot but its weird that it happened twice
This is truly what it feels like to get early pre igniters. I got them on Stealth type a today and I just killed everything with no problems.
Stealth B is also a pre igniter dream.
My 3rd best score run was in Stealth B and I named the ship "pre-igniter pls". Got over 6000 which is a really high score for me
@@SpicyAvocado It's funny how one little item turns Stealth B from a frantic cloaking and dodging simulator, to a professional fruit ninja simulator.
I think the best setup I ever got was 2x chain Vulcan, weapon pre-igniter, and stealth weapons. You get 10 seconds while my weapons ramp, and then you're toast.
Don't need fuel, we got Pre-igniter
This guy understands
Those who burn brightly burn quickly :)
Man really combo'd 2 shield bubbles into Weapon Pre-Igniter right away
Legendary luck and good editing, name a more iconic duo
Maybe also restoring the hull as well?
@@ThatOneSuperinethat rock hull was crazy good luck
@@SonoftheBreadit was from doing the rock cruiser quest
Good gameplay. Nice editing. Very cool video, very cool.
1:42 "One must imagine the engi happy."
oh, hello there!
Oh nice , John starsetor is here
Let’s see Paul Allen’s video
it's my favourite Starsector Vtuber!
oxygen privileges revoked cracked me up 😭😭
That one had me howling
I couldn't take my eyes off this the whole video..... Pre-ignited my frontal cortex
She pre-ignite my weapon till I kestrel 🥵

"...And they shot at us."
"The galactic standard greeting, of course."
the sisyphus engi got me good
First time I've seen a really good FTL edit, good job

Superb editing, never thought I'd see an FTL vid with modern day memes. Thank you!
Surviving your own hubris just to fall victim to it is the ideal way to play FTL

An FTL video in 2024. I've been blessed, thank you (Also great video!)
This has excellent editing. And I'm amazed to see that I'm not the only one who deactivates shields to avoid icon weapons!
I wish I was as smart as you guys lol
I never thought to do that...
And I feel very stupid to ask but what are icon weapons? And why do you avoid them deactivating shields? 😱
@@3rdfriend Im guessing ion weapons
I love this little community, I think I played over 20 hours this week and i enjoyed every bit.
Thank you Shondo for saving the universe and also the galaxy I appreciate it.

FTL is such a wonderful game, glad content creators are finding success with the game today
I havent seen an ftl video in probably 8+ years, i still play nearly every month and this video made me so pleased
The holy grail of indie games! Glad to see this one is still getting the attention it very much deserves.
feels so surreal seeing ftl memery in 2024 and not 2014
That disrespectful cloack at the end when the flagship is dead xD
This is probably the cleanest Flagship fight I've ever seen. They were not prepared for the power of the Glaive + pre-igniter
Quality FTL videos in the year 2024, absolute king shit.
The editing is so high quality bro. Never seen an ftl video that wasn't mostly unedited
This is peak gaming, the fact you can insert so many memes into it was amazing.
I had to do a double take questioning when I saw an FTL video
God damn, FTL in modern edits with helldivers and whatnot is so bizarre I love it
Hey, this video was really enjoyable, I laughed a lot with the perfect combination of FTL, Super Smash Bros OST and modern memes, new suscriber
The editing in this video had me laughing and engaged the entire time. Amazing work.
Also my favorite weapon set up is 2 burst 2's and a glaive so thats awsome aswell.
The ideal ship has EMP stunners, one or two lasers, a 4 person teleporter, a pair of mantises and a pair of crystals.
Your setup is too merciful.
Anybody else bothered by the fact that the engi was assigned to babysit the shield room instead of manning doors?
"What is my purpose?"
"You watch a rock press the recharge button and maybe fix something if he sucks at his job."
"Oh my god."
Edit: Rip da rock. Born to man a system, forced to rotate.
Surviving with no fuel and with less than 30 percent hull points to then get a glaive and absolutely decimate the flagship, oh god 😂
Now I want to play this game again.
Edit: Your editing is killing it! Amazing work :D. Take my subscription and gimme more!
Mr President, a second Smith has boarded the Krustrel
I never knew I needed a high quality FTL meme video in my life, thanks!
god i love ftl i'm so happy someone else who also knows how to edit does too
I'm addicted to 5:11. Real Rock FM for life!
Ah, now this is some quality FTL content!
Awesome edit! I'm glad to see people still playing FTL. If i could give you a reccomendation, there is a communuty made mod manager as well as a community edition calles "FTL:Multiverse" which you might enjoy!
And also another thing, thank you for putting the music in the description. A lot of people just out music in and i cant find it because there is no source
Multiverse: The proper successor to Captain's Edition everyone wanted. And because it's a source mod it can break everything it needs to function
Zoltan sectors legit scare me more than any hostile sector
Seriously. One bad Zoltan boarding event can end runs if your ship isn't ready for it
But the Zoltan shield... its worth it right?
@@Bubbble_Bear I GOT F*(KING ENVOY THIS IS BULLSHIT, I THOUGHT I'D GET SHIELDS LIKE YOU GET ROCK PLATIING BUT NOOOO, SO NOW I'M HERE ON 7 HULL, WHY
Holy shit new FTL content? Hell yeah brother
FTL meme video in 2024? Did I travel back in time???
Haha, loving the hubris sideshow. That really captures the soul of FTL runs, of running the line/gauntlet of having enough power to defeat the endgame or of burning to bright too soon.
if asteroid fields don't got me anymore i know a random enemy with one weapon got me
Oh crap fleeing the flagship to kidnap boarders is such a great strat, why didnt i think of it
Commenting so the algorithm spreads this video further in the hopes that the success will make you make more of them, as I need more quality shitpost gameplay in my life.
05:10 Is genuinely incredible, masterpiece of a video my guy
This is some quality editing, Engi's work for sure.
This is the best edited playthrough of just about any game I've ever seen. This is amazing!
This is a certified FTL classic.
3:20 I can't believe you convinced Gnorts to make a cameo. Vinny must be so proud.
I am in considerable financial debt
ROFL jesus christ this montage is a masterpiece
I just "finished" (aka lost) another painstaking hard mode run and decided it would be time to hit youtube to see if I could find some tips, only to find people struggling in the same ways unless you get an insane combo out of nowhere and just shit on things.
The editing and inside jokes in this video really hit home lol, nice work
Potential mantis event: "It's you..."
Crewmate Smith: "Yes... me me me.”
Crewmate Smith: "Me too."
Incredible video, I'm genuinely shocked to see such high quality FTL content nowadays
"Hi! I'm Smith. From the colony!"
-Hi! I'm also Smith from the colony!
"Are we related?"
This is incredible glad to see modern day meme format for FTL
Edit: Also damn you are pretty good at the game.
2 burst lasers and a glaive with a pre-igniter is a dream build, not even 5% of my runs are that powerful
"Oh, hey, you accidentally listed Smith twice on the crew list"
"Uh, no. They had two smiths"
"Oh, really? I only met the mantis one that thought it was human"
"They're both a mantis who thinks they're human."
"... you're just trying to fuck with me, aren't you"
This is a great video would love to see more
This video feels like the old days of TH-cam
Never delete it
had me gasping for air. so happy to see this game getting love in 2024, and especially in the form of a video that's this hilarious!
In my head I was thinking, this is either going to be a sick run of destruction, or you were instantly getting destroyed after buying the pre-igniter
My ADHD isn't severe enough to enjoy this video, ugh.
Also FTL came out 12 years ago, christ we're getting old.
PS: Check out Little V Mill's FTL cover if you haven't heard it. Was how I woke up every morning for years; absolutely phenomenal work.
amazing vid, prolly the best FTL one I've seen
Man i just watched trough your videos and they are absoluteley hillarious!
Didn't realize I had watched this before until the double Smith part. What a joy to watch again
This is absolutely perfect and pumped my brain full of happy juice. And now I'm re-installing FTL again.
What an absolutely flagship demolishing run
4:08
So relatable you escape a battle yielding nothing but the crack on your back…and learn nothing (buys anything but repair or defences)
Top tier editing right here. Well timed, well paced, very dank. Thanks Mr. Spicy Avocado
FTL my beloved… god I need to play it again lol.
There is no way videos such as these exist. Keep it up!
I love how you can tell exactly how skilled this guy is from all the silly strategies. And hubris.
5:10 I laughed so much, thanks for that moment
Splendid run! Really nice.
Rare to see a good FTL vid nowadays. Glad I saw this.
Pictured: unluckiest successful FTL run
Very nice to see a FTL video, thank you sir
I'm glad people are still playing FTL. It's one of the greatest out there
OMG please keep these coming!
Great video! My sides hurt! 😂
This is FANTASTIC
Absolutely insane level of editing! Incredible video!
look at me im the flagship now is coolest space oneliner ive heard
I didn’t realise meme edits of FTL was something I needed so badly
This was the most entertained I’ve been by a yt video in so long
These edits really powered my weapon
FTL content has me acting up, thank you!
Okay, *please* make more of these. Its so fun being able to watch modern FTL content
We Love the FTL experince. you know what else we love? the FTL Multiversal Experience :)
Maybe some day👀
@@SpicyAvocado ayo?
