Sir the 17 pounder won't fit *put it in sideways* The radio won't fit *cut a hole in the back and have it stick out* The engines no good *strap 5 car engines together and put em in there*
@@emperror85 : The 105 mm gun was a howitzer with a low muzzle velocity, and therefore a short recoil, no longer than the standard 75 mm gun. So fitting it into the M4 turret was a lot easier than fitting the high-velocity 17-pounder gun with a much longer recoil than the 75 mm. Or are you talking about the M4A1 Revalorisé (Israeli M51 Super Sherman) with a high-velocity 105 mm gun? That was done by scrapping the original turret and fitting a late model T23 turret.
@@timonsolus Revalorisé probably wasn't even built, not confirmed, and it's french. Also I remember you as that Churchill Mk. VI from the birdmaster gaming, nice game but that panzer 4 s was an asshole
@@25husky : The M4A1 Revalorisé was converted from M4's in France, but not used by the French Army. All 150 were sold by France to Israel as the Sherman M51.

No need to chase the reds when you're the last tank - they'll find you, lol
Can you remember just how much everyone was looking forward to this tank and how it disappointed. Shame really, given what a beast it was as a real TD.
Tank Destroyer. I love my Firefly. The gun depression doesn’t bother me; you simply have separate the words ‘Firefly’ and ‘Sherman’ in your head if you can’t. I hated my grind up the US medium tree, perhaps that is why. For example: 5:06 you’re playing if wrong. Peak horizontally, not veryicslly over a ridge. You’re too close. You’ve popped adrenaline but didn’t stay put to get 2-3 shots out while nobody was looking, then hide once you’ve got the reds attention. What the Firefly gets is penetration and gun handling. It blows every other T6 med out of the water except the premium Pz.4 (with Panther turret). Sadly BlitzStars only shows ‘dispersion on turret rotation’ and not ‘dispersion on movement’ so I can’t put any numbers to it. But undoubtably great hidden stats along with being slow (by T6 med standards, the TOG effect) gives you godly gun handling. You might be able to go hull down in an Easy8. But I’ll nail your turret checks every other shot while still bobbing in and out of cover just as quickly (the acceleration of the Firefly isn’t too much different). I even run the refined gun thing for increased base dispersion. 0.317 is actually kind of mediocre. Yet it has the gun handling to go without v.stabilisation, so I get 0.301 at least. Anyway, more important matters. Sk8, have you noticed that the in-game 6.0 news article has an FV217 Badger in the title image?
WG should turn the Sherman Firefly into a TD. After all, it is the British counterpart to the Jackson. Suggested changes: 1) remove top 470 hp engine, introduce new stock 425 hp engine 2) nerf terrain resistance to the same as the Sherman V 3) nerf hitpoints by 100 (This is to slow the tank down and discourage players from going front line in it.) 4) buff gun mantlet armour to 90 mm (Historically accurate) 5) buff aim time to 1.82 (same as Angry Connor) 6) buff dispersion to 0.307 (same as AT 8 and Loza’s Sherman) 7) buff camo ratings to the same as the M36 Jackson The tank would be less nippy and more fragile, but would have quicker aiming and better gun accuracy. It would also have better camo, and may bounce a shot or two off its improved gun mantlet when hull down. Overall, it would feel less like a medium and more like a turreted TD, which is what it should be.
I'm a big fan of the hellcat, I usually support meds and try to flank enemy tanks very quickly. The best way to play it is to pick off tanks one at a time while someone gives cover fire in my opinion. Love the vids man
Darn amazing gun, feels like a tier X medium in terms of gun handling and penetration :) Mobility also good enough to keep the gun shooting, just keep a distance from the enemy to keep gun depression
@@bayanbatu6848 obviously you don't understand him. Hes saying that you should keep away from the enemy so that your bad gun depression won't negatively affect on your game performance.
@@bayanbatu6848 gd over the sides is 7-8 degrees compaored to the 6 at the front so keeping a distance means around 50m so that you can get the gun down onto opponents
I'm so used on playing the M4 Sherman and M4A3E8 so much it took me a while to adjust to the absolute lack of gun depression, can't believe I'd write this but I want my depression back
Due to stats, I never wanted to play Firefly and never had it.. But with upcoming brit td's I gave it a run.. And am on around 70%wr with 70 battles.. And decited to keep it! :) Everything sk8 said is right on spot (like it ever wasn't?!) and I think that if you use it as mobile td it can do marvels! Gun handling and pen is great and just needed to be used right..
Great vid, SK8! I needed the perspective change on it. After 3 games (0 wins with 1450 avg damage and 1.7 spotting and destruction) I was let down and decided to check for a review, like the professional you *ARE* you had the review I needed! I had noticed the gun depression and was bummed about that, I hadn’t considered playing it like this yet tho. Great vid as always, thanks for posting 🇺🇸👍🏻
Well in the history itself it’s made for destroying tanks so it’s called a tank destroyer. There wasn’t a class or type of tanks back in the time other than artillery of course.
Just don’t expect to be able to run from trouble unless that trouble is Heavy tank flavored. Mobility is at the bottom of the Sherman barrel since the Jumbo is out of the picture.
Sherman Firefly is one of my favorite tanks, the fact that this Sherman was built to kill Tigers & Panthers is what made it badass but yeah in WoT (Blitz) kind of a let down. Just sad, tanks that so iconic irl is getting outshine by some bad, non-operational, and even made up tanks in the game.
There is a reason very few people roll out in the sherman firefly... It sucks! You'll be wrecked by lights. You'll be wrecked by mediums. You'll be wrecked by td's. You'll be wrecked by heavies. The sherman firefly specializes in getting wrecked by the enemy. Its basically a tall soft target that hides behind friendly lines. Just what the game needs, another medium that can't play a medium role. Its bad enough having having medium players who won't play medium roles but now we have a medium tank that CAN'T play a medium role.
The firefly is a bit like the panther is some respects real life an amazing bit of kit in blitz it’s kinda meh, also can’t wait for the new line and have 30k saved in my ff for it, nice vid as always sk8
I got mastery badge on my 37th battle. It was used as sniper in ww2 or tiger and panther destroyer but in wot it sucks more than our education system.Anyway, When you show only turret you can bounce lots of shells.
- The 17 pounder was such a large gun that it was difficult to fit on a Sherman platform, and they had to accept shitty gun depression and moving the radio outside the original turret space. - Hmm... let's put a 105 mm gun on it!
This tank is the first one to penetrate the tiger. So I guess it's more suitable to be treated like a td...it's not a sherman anyway due to the lack of mobility and gun depression. Also the upcoming british td line will start from firefly.
Yup i agree that this tank can pen easily any tier 7 I get penned with my SU 122 44 with every single shot by the Sherman although many other tanks in the same tier can't
I was also weirded out by the fact that the new td line comes out of the firefly... I mean the Challenger and Charioteer are based on the cromwell... Guess it's because of the gun
Without doubt it's a TD( Oh and btw, the US didn't GIVE us Shermans - we had to pay for them. The same as we had to pay for all the US stuff we used lol ). I have to admit that I'm not too keen on any of the Shermans. I find them a bit " meh " to be truthful. Which is fair enough I suppose as they were a bit "meh " in real life too lol.
@@timonsolus Well, talking about Blitz, I'd have to say I prefer the Pz IV G to the Sherman. As it does at least have an accurate gun. Which the Sherman lacks, as do most US tanks if we are being honest ( ok, they might not be as bad as some Russian tanks, but they certainly do lack a bit in the accuracy department. Especially at long range ). But at least they are generally better tanks than those damn Japanese things. I think they must have made the armour of those out of old origami swans lol ( although they are a lot better in Blitz than they were in real life ).
zednotzee7: WG have nerfed the Pz.Kpfw.IVG (in fact all the German Tier V mediums) into uselessness. Their top guns (yes, TOP guns!) do only 120 average alpha damage. The top 75mm guns on all other nations’ Tier V mediums do 160. Talk about anti-German bias!
@@timonsolus I agree that on paper, the Pz IV gun doesn't look so good. But personally I'll take hitting more often over a high alpha. and lets face it, all the tier V tanks are a bit pants anyway. The " Great Nerfing " was an ill-advised attempt to stop Seal Clubbing that hasn't worked. To be honest, I think the only way to stop that going on is to get rid of the win rate stat, as most of the Seal Clubbing is done by people trying to keep their win rate up ( or just improve it ). Especially now that teams are a bit dire. Anti-German bias ? I'm not so sure about that tbh. From tier VI on wards the German tanks are pretty damn good. Their tanks in tiers I II and III are good as well. I'm not that keen on the Pz IV D though I must admit.
The thin armor isn't the only thing this tank's driver have to face... The "wanna-be pro" players who always think "you're a medium... Go do Spotting, coward" (because they think all tanks in the same type created equal) is the next thing 😁.
._. How do we add this 17 pounder to this Sherman Britain: remove the radio Crew: but sir isn’t that important Britain : ._. Nah add a tea maker instead *and thats how the firefly was born*
Ground 70k on it already, sold it, hated it. Now I have 16 million credits 250k free Xp and all the other tier x tanks sk8, thank god the update is here at last
My most played tank, i love my firefly and usually get in good damage. I prefer a firefly because of it's gunevery time i shoot with the E8 it bounces.
Firefly is more suitable as TD than MT. Its has low acceleration, thin armour, and not agile. Those characteristics arent match for a MT, and will only make u as FIRST BLOOD in battle. Anyway its gun is so accurate, that make it perfect as TD
I really dont think this is a bad tank, everyone seems to hate it but the gun is crazy good for a tier 6, it's certainly not easy to play like an Easy8. You will need skill to make it work, but if you know how to manufacture gun depression and can farm dmg you really should do fine.
Sooner play TD. I play firefly only because its a sweet to tease at peeka-boom and I like to play in higher tier than its own. I'd not recommend it for platoon. No one rides a firefly other than on EU server as its only server you'll last more than 30 seconds without hiding until end on match. @sk8 brov would you please make a video on platoon and an appeal for players to do so. I play for those keys and its hard to platoon always. Thanks
Finally ... I love the Firefly and grinded 80k exp for the new line. It is trolling with its pen and you dont want to see tier 7. But thats ok because its fun. I played as medium but only with teammates helping me.
It is a very good tank don't get me wrong but I just prefer the Cromwell better gun depression and better speed just my opinion thanks for the review mate 👍
Did you pay those guys in the last game to gift you a kolobanov and an ace? They could not have done that any worse if they’d planned it. * Obviously you got your positioning right, but they lined up one after the other for comedy slap downs.
Hey there sk8, what do you say in having a preferential matchmaking for T-34-85 Rudy? I mean it's s Tier VI tank with better gun, but once it is sent in a Tier VIII match it feels super interior.
Better accuracy? I disagree, I hit things in the Easy 8 easier than I do in the Firefly, I miss fully aimed shots in the Firefly a lot, I mean like A LOT, in the Easy 8 I almost never miss fully aimed shots
James Thornton : That should not be the case, unless you are playing the M4A3E8 at short range and the Firefly at long range. The M4A3E8 definitely has worse dispersion than the Firefly. What’s your in-game name?
@@timonsolus I play them both at long and short range but that may be the case (trying to hit long range shot with the Firefly) My gamer tags are James_Tompson and M1DevlDog

Maybe just top 5?
Its need top 25 tbh and no fake tanks.

It should also have horrendously bad ROF, the lack of space really impeded the loader. But fortunately it doesn’t in Blitz.

I"m having a TERRIBLE time trying to use it as a medium...
Of all M4 type tanks its my least favorite due to the lack of gun depression.
I play it like normal medium, anyway greetings sk8! :)
Better accuracy?
I disagree, I hit things in the Easy 8 easier than I do in the Firefly, I miss fully aimed shots in the Firefly a lot, I mean like A LOT, in the Easy 8 I almost never miss fully aimed shots
James Thornton : That should not be the case, unless you are playing the M4A3E8 at short range and the Firefly at long range. The M4A3E8 definitely has worse dispersion than the Firefly.
What’s your in-game name?
@@timonsolus I play them both at long and short range but that may be the case (trying to hit long range shot with the Firefly)
My gamer tags are James_Tompson and M1DevlDog
Hi sk8. Do you turn auto aim off every shot?
Sk8 if you had to compare a 17 pounder to a gun in mm, what mm would it be? Why is it called a 17 pounder?
ChristianGamer 17 pounder refers to the weight of the shell that it fires. the caliber of the 17 pdr is roughly 77mm
Yup, 76,2 mm. The comet has the 77mm, the 17-pdr Mk.2
Why don’t u have a discord server ?
The fv4005 will get nuke a lot by HE shells it is like the grille armor wise
Talking about worst mediums do a review on t20
That's a good tank
I loved the T20. Play that like a mobile TD too
Sherman firefly deserves a little more armour?
Or be faster
Medium Tank Destroyer
For some reason, sk8 never agrees with me. 😄 Guess bushka told him, I was a dick. 😏
A second earlier *shot missed*
*You gotta use the accuracy of this gun*
Hey sk8, wanna toon on EU so u can teach me e25 plz xD I mean I'm ok in e25 but not that good, would love to be better in it, good fun to play when more if I was more skilled in it
I would run it with camo net,why? Well let your team spot and you will farm damage

Its basically the same gun as the Cromwell B but with less dpm and worse mobility and gun depression
