TTA Hopeless Masquerade Mode - Full Guide

Big Description:
Goal of this video is to save people time. HM takes a stupidly long amount of time to grind on single lane, as well as dual lane.
Please ask any questions you may have in comments, as I've tried just about everything there is to try when it comes to efficiently farming HM.

Tag Selection Strategy:
[Unit Boosts]
#1 Priority: Ground Expansion - Hill Expansion
Top Priority: Element Damage - Faction Damage - Element Range - Faction Range

[Enemy Modifiers]
#1 Priority:
Matching Element enemy mask
(Until wave 10, do NOT choose shields, and not sky depending on team)
Top Priority:
ALL Speed - ALL Shields - ALL Health - Speed - Shields - Health
Never Choose: Off Element or Bomb (Can choose bomb if high range team)

Is Kokoro even worth it? Yeah, but one copy is enough unless you enjoy this mode especially.
She's got great stats, all AoE options, and will never be bad early game thanks to how her kit works.
That alone almost justifies getting her, aside collecting.
Imo the best looking style in the game, which is funny to see locked behind around 360-400 hours of playtime pity (200-250 on average factoring in rates).

Alternatively, you can pay for her with Robux and skip the grind. Its an interesting financial decision if that is your own money, compared to what type of exclusive content you can get on other gacha for similar money.
Personally, I am hoping we get better ways of financially supporting the game other than just saving time. Until then, I don't see a reason to buy units in this way.
The grind is not bad, as you can watch a show or play a less demanding rpg/indie game while you grind HM, or even eat.

Single lane wave 150? Due to the even higher time requirement, I would not recommend, but go for it if you want something you can use just about any team for.
Already for dual lane, at best you're getting comparable time investment to Shinki obtainment, otherwise more. Not factoring in disconnects/midclick's over ~90 hours, which likely makes this more regardless.
The time commitment is quite literally insane considering you are only farming for 1 mythic at a time, so I would highly encourage you to make the best use of your time, as this is already silly in base-case scenario farming.

About 20 hours of footage compressed in this single video.
"Fire" is meant instead of "Myouren" at the 45:30 mark but you know
Noted other errors below, but nothing else that could be confusing though.

There may be a few editing and/or grammatical errors including but not limited to:
-Use of "possible" instead of "possibly"
-Repeated text around 23 minutes in.
-Screen glitch on left side at 38:58
-No space at 42:01
-"Myouren" instead of "Fire" At 45:30, meant to be fire
-End of 48 minute mark, meant to say "At most" regarding units without hit sky.

Apologies if there are any other errors/popups. Did the best I could with compressing all this footage.
