[That_potato_]

I'm grinding the Vk 100.01 and this thing is the bane of my existence

[Trilobiteer]

Remember when they removed 850dmg alpha from tier 10 TDs like the Obj 268 for being too much at tier 10? Yet this thing can have 630 at tier 8 without the sacrifices of the ISU-152. Balanced.

[nokarukio]

270 pen 630 alpha at tier 8, I wouldn’t even dare trading with this ugly thing in city area even at tier 9 HT.

[mrseryous]

QB calling the weak point of this tank out for being trash, while pointing at a 200+mm lower plate on a tier 8 TD just shows how much worse the power creep is getting in this game.

With all the other things going on with this tank one can be forgiven for thinking like that. This tank is pretty much tier 9 on most hard stats and pushing the bar in most other metrics, so the lower plate being above average for a tier 9 Heavy seems like a major downside for this tier 8 TD.

WG has to fix the matchmaking. What are tier 6 tanks supposed to do against this thing… (and the other op tier 8 premiums of it’s kind)

[SGrant]

Has anyone tried turning QBs reviews into a drinking game? Take a sip every time he says "however".
As always QB, thanks for the detailed reviews.

[LessAiredvanU]

Complaining that a tier 10 tank can two shot you, while you need four pens in your T8 is hilarious. Nearly all T8 could fire 10 and more rounds in the same time, and get zero pens against them.

[gullev]

This is an insane tank to be against when it comes from around a corner and just have the turret turned, and every shoot bounces on the bottom part, and I cant pen the turret. Doing missions this christmas is insane when you do not take part in the pay to win more.

[EugenioDublan]

This tank has to be one of the best credit maker premium out there

[clementlobjoie]

'if you angle it like this you can get away with some miracle bounces' he said as his mouse pointed at the effective armor 270mm thick

[Lemmiatem]

There is no greater feeling in this tank than when you one-shot, from full health, the even 90.

[elmuchachoenamorado]

Its like a ISU 152 and the TS 5 got together and this is the baby😂😂

[David-pspq]

Why do we need so many tanks? 3 tier 8 American premium tds to go along with tech tree? Enough already. Let’s get new maps

[Hardtruth]

I must say. I really enjoy playing the tanks that came out of the loot boxes this year. I'm usually just in it for the gold.

[Drakkun_TWG]

So we have the death star, the jageru (how ever its spelled lol) this one is the death beetle lol. Or something along that line. Looks like a Giant Beetle, definitely not one to take lightly.

[milanlicina]

This and BZ176 in platoon is just nuts my STA 2 is a two shot...

[workingguy-OU]

It's amazing how War Gaming's model forces those of us who left to never come back. I don't recognize any of the tanks you compared this new tank to. Then QB was also talking about the last amazing lot-box tank in the game that he went up against... that I also don't recognize. And, as always, the new is better than the old through nerfs and buffs. I would have to start a new account from scratch, with a constant supply of money, just to understand the weaknesses of each new tank and line.

16:04 I too sometimes forget that firefighting is only one crew skill.

[Kfish]

My being vaporized for all my HP by this tank, prompted me to watch this video. IMHO it is totally OP in so many of its' matchups.

[klixxalot]

It plays just like the t30, whenever you load standard rounds, somehow it bounces light tanks with 270mm of ap pen....
