Need strong strategies for high level solo - Five

[That Guy You Know]

Hey, new here, first post, be nice

But anyone know a good, solid, TESTED strategy to get to round 25+ solo on Five? Having trouble getting past round 20. Pentagon Thief is a big obstacle, haha. Any suggestions would be much appreciated :)

My friend, you've come to the right place, anyone will tell you I'm an absolute expert at FIVE

If you're looking for the easiest way possible, watch this video - it shows you the easiest possible strategy for the earlier and later rounds alike, as well as how to deal with the thief:

Here's me using the above strategy to get to round 37 with no perks, that's how easy it is

You should make an introduction here so we can get to know you better!

Video helped quite a bit, thanks!

Also, where you mention at Round 2, to knife the last zomb then headshot him, is it guaranteed to drop a powerrup?

[That Guy You Know]

Well that's gonna help me now, haha.

You play on Xbox or PS3?

Yeah once you have 2500 points for the first time you'll be due a drop. Doesn't have to be a headshot either ;)

[That Guy You Know]

So it's just the first 2500 points I'm guessing?

[Superhands]

That, then at about 5000 points as well. Drops are definitely points-based, that's been proven.

So it's just the first 2500 points I'm guessing?

It changes after that. Also some drops are random but most cases you can expect drops at 2500 point increments.

Shows what you can find out by paying attention

Super, does it matter if you take the group of zombies across the stairs to kill them in the auto-train method? Or can you just grill 'em wherever?
