Fun fact: Those annoying “smoke grenade” launchers on the Tiger are in-fact anti-personnel fragmentary grenade launchers, used for when a group of infantry rush the tank. Hence, that’s why they face in all directions. All of this to say, that means they’re even more useless than empty smoke grenade launchers, in a game with no infantry. Go figure!
Yeah, I didn't mind the fact that the gun has to do that whole animation when it passes...until phly mentioned that gun barrels aren't even treated like physical objects. And the funny thing about that is, of all the games I've played with tanks the only one I remember having a physical gun barrel is gta 5
It amazes me how open players in videos move, but somehow the enemies are always even more careless and blind. Endless camping or getting instakilled probably wouldnt make for a good video though. :P

It's not the headlights that keeps preventing your turret to traverse without elevating it, but it's the S-Mine at the corner of the tank. The Tiger E don't have those S-Mine which makes the traverse a little bit better.

Yes. How to play a Tiger tank correctly. 1: Do not stand still. 2: Stop thinking you're invincible because you're in a Tiger. 3: Use cover constantly. 4: Snipe. That's what your gun is for. 5: In built-up country or urban areas, ambush. 6: Don't brawl; that gets you killed. 7: Use streets and lanes of travel to your advantage. 8: Use your gun's range. 9: Stay alert at all times; you're a big target. 10: Don't convince yourself that your armor will stop the Death Star's superlaser.

Angle ze box tank, and use it like a sniper. That's where the Tiger shines; stay back and snipe. It doesn't have the manueverability nor the turret traverse speed to brawl in tight quarters, and it's armor, while better than a lot of the tanks it faces, can still be penned pretty damn easily up close and square on. So stay back. Camp a little bit, angle her and let the 88 do what it does better than any other gun it will face - snipe!

When I play the tiger 1 most of my deaths are either from aircrafts or from hellcats shooting me from the side so yes the tiger is a really good tank its just that German players including but not limited to me are bad players
agreed... when I started out and didn't angle, I kept on getting destroyed quickly but if I didn't act like an idiot and hid the side plate while angling, I could get 6 kills without much hassle
When its angled..it will literally bounce practically everything. The only danger is the neck like every tank. And for the H1 the Hull is weaker. But even for the E.. its only reinforced with 2 small areas on both sides of the weakspots but they make a huge difference. I learned to angle them too so....just give it a wiggle just before the enemy shoot. Now the whole tank is a bouncer I unlocked Tiger 1 a few years back when it was uptiered everygame, fighting downtiered T29s, T28s, IS2/Mod 1944, T44s etc...eventually I earned to bully them every game. Flippin heck there were moments where I took a good last stand against several tanks..killing many of them in the process. This tank can take a good beating. Most shots will bounce
@@ertugrulbae46 I wish more german players were not so stubborn in angling, the biggest argument I see so far (mind you it is an incredibly stupid one) is "if my enemies don't have to angle why should I?" Well, why would you refuse to do something that benefits you the most? God sometimes I facepalm at the intelligence those people have.
Even when I angle I still get 1 shotted so I theres really no excuse I play really slow too and yet I still come across people that one shot me even though I'm like far away it's just stupid if you ask me and I'm not as stupid as some players but still its doesnt make it right for someone oneshotting me from a mile away with something like a standard Sherman or British tank I've tried every angle too and guess what It doesnt work now I dont play the game mostly because I usually get into sweaty sad games for my lvl and kd it's just stupid tbh
“Phlydaily isnt that good at the game” Phlydaily: *shoots a t-34’s weakspot instinctively with an 88mm cannon due do the massive amount of experience he has at the game*
5:20 Talk about being at the wrong place at the wrong time lol. _"Nothing here... huh... let's see what's over this hill"_ Meanwhile there are 7 angry red guys aiming at that exact spot looking for that exact silhouette😅
This thing goes from "unpenetrable" to "one shot while angled on the side with empty ammo racks" like nothing else. The 10-20% of matches that work are *übersatisfing* tho, so all worth it.
Phly just said that tiger isn't op, wtf Tigers just sucks because 90% of germany players are simply braindead, on my second time using it, I got 13 kills, and only got penetrated once. Tiger is basically the same as sherman, but with way better armor and slightly less mobility
One of my favorite memories on warthunder was about 2 years or so ago on the map Volokolamsk. Our team (all German) subconsciously without communicating formed a line of Tigers and Panthers on the left side of the map and advanced from tree line to tree and systematically decimated the enemy team in one fluid push While taking almost no losses.
alot of people who play tigers usually come up to a sherman with 50mm of real life frontal armor and say "Ah, easy kill" only to bounce off their front plate and get killed by the jumbo shooting into the commander's cupola
thats a myth actually. it comes from the fact that Sherman traveled in a minimum of packs of 4 to 5 so when ever they killed a German tank it would be five of them bc that just how they traveled not bc it took all 5 of them to kill the tank
@@m26pershing98 Well I mean to be fair a single sherman simply cannot win against a tiger alone. At least not in ~95% of realistic engagements. It would probably take a group of 5 (A regiment of Sherman's) to stand good odds against a tiger tank without losses.
@@issacfoster1113 true the Americans ran into 3 tiger tanks in Europe the first time the Shermans won the second time the M26 Pershing lost (it was stuck on rubble R.I.P.) and the 3rd time the Shermans won (the tiger was being loaded on a train so not really fair) and those are the only time us forces ran into tigers in Europe that can be confirmed
@@iamthehype3684 probably but us forces only encountered 3 tiger in 1944 (the Sherman won the first time the Pershing lost the second time it was stuck on rubble and the tiger lost the 3rd time it was being loaded onto a train or something so not really fair)

@@nesyboi9421 if there's another tank that's wholly superior to another at the same BR. They shouldn't be at the same BR.
Day 62: play the P-51C-10 to show em a little trick you learned
Stay strong
Yes
Historical matchup game mode in warthunder needs to be a thing. It’s be fun to not be afraid in a tiger anymore
And Tiger 2s are going against post war players that know every weak spot you have and you cant see where you're shooting at.
I'd be cool with that if they made allied CAS cheaper and more abundant
@@dozergames2395 haha Fr. They only want historic if it only applies to them.
@@collander7766 hey I'm down to face tiger 2s and tigers in Easy8s with extra case
Gaijins stupid match maker already has my easy facing all the tiger2s anyway
But if you want the maus in your "historical" battles we get p80s bear cats and t series tanks
@@dozergames2395 yea lol exactly. Let’s also make sure that American team sizes are double that if German teams, and only 3 tiger iis per game

Alternative title: Tiger tank but its actually played by someone who ins't a f*cking idiot
When I play the tiger 1 most of my deaths are either from aircrafts or from hellcats shooting me from the side so yes the tiger is a really good tank its just that German players including but not limited to me are bad players
agreed... when I started out and didn't angle, I kept on getting destroyed quickly but if I didn't act like an idiot and hid the side plate while angling, I could get 6 kills without much hassle
When its angled..it will literally bounce practically everything. The only danger is the neck like every tank. And for the H1 the Hull is weaker. But even for the E.. its only reinforced with 2 small areas on both sides of the weakspots but they make a huge difference. I learned to angle them too so....just give it a wiggle just before the enemy shoot. Now the whole tank is a bouncer
I unlocked Tiger 1 a few years back when it was uptiered everygame, fighting downtiered T29s, T28s, IS2/Mod 1944, T44s etc...eventually I earned to bully them every game.
Flippin heck there were moments where I took a good last stand against several tanks..killing many of them in the process. This tank can take a good beating. Most shots will bounce
@@ertugrulbae46 I wish more german players were not so stubborn in angling, the biggest argument I see so far (mind you it is an incredibly stupid one) is "if my enemies don't have to angle why should I?" Well, why would you refuse to do something that benefits you the most? God sometimes I facepalm at the intelligence those people have.
@@SirMcMuffin I guess they like repair costs..🤦♂️
Even when I angle I still get 1 shotted so I theres really no excuse I play really slow too and yet I still come across people that one shot me even though I'm like far away it's just stupid if you ask me and I'm not as stupid as some players but still its doesnt make it right for someone oneshotting me from a mile away with something like a standard Sherman or British tank I've tried every angle too and guess what It doesnt work now I dont play the game mostly because I usually get into sweaty sad games for my lvl and kd it's just stupid tbh

(For tigers only)
This thing goes from "unpenetrable" to "one shot while angled on the side with empty ammo racks" like nothing else. The 10-20% of matches that work are *übersatisfing* tho, so all worth it.
Phly, consider playing the British Charioteer. It is really good right now

I haven’t watched your videos in so long. I remember you becoming a father.
“Cause in War Thunder, the only way to have fun is ruining someone else’s” 😂
A tiger actually getting kills?
So a tiger that’s not in the hands of 95% of German players?
My secret to being good in a Tiger is...... Ha You thought I was gonna give you my secret 😂
I usually get 3-4 kills on my tiger before getting bombed to kindome come
Well you have to play very tactically and slowly
Phly just said that tiger isn't op, wtf
Tigers just sucks because 90% of germany players are simply braindead, on my second time using it, I got 13 kills, and only got penetrated once.
Tiger is basically the same as sherman, but with way better armor and slightly less mobility
@@Bizzzi true. Players need to think that they can get penetrated. They must play tactically.
I just got the tiger H1 the other day, it’s refreshing actually killing t34s now😂
One of my favorite memories on warthunder was about 2 years or so ago on the map Volokolamsk. Our team (all German) subconsciously without communicating formed a line of Tigers and Panthers on the left side of the map and advanced from tree line to tree and systematically decimated the enemy team in one fluid push While taking almost no losses.
(Wipes tear from eye).........thats beautiful bro! Really! Seriously!
A true ballroom blitzkrieg
alot of people who play tigers usually come up to a sherman with 50mm of real life frontal armor and say "Ah, easy kill" only to bounce off their front plate and get killed by the jumbo shooting into the commander's cupola
That last round reminds me of the last fight in the movies FURY, but with a tiger defending Berlin.
Very satisfying to watch.

That pfp matches your statement, chad
1 tiger is worth 5 shermans but there are always six shermans(; 00:00-07:12
thats a myth actually. it comes from the fact that Sherman traveled in a minimum of packs of 4 to 5 so when ever they killed a German tank it would be five of them bc that just how they traveled not bc it took all 5 of them to kill the tank
@@m26pershing98 Well I mean to be fair a single sherman simply cannot win against a tiger alone. At least not in ~95% of realistic engagements. It would probably take a group of 5 (A regiment of Sherman's) to stand good odds against a tiger tank without losses.
Like there are only rare instances of american thanks running into tigers
@@issacfoster1113 true the Americans ran into 3 tiger tanks in Europe the first time the Shermans won the second time the M26 Pershing lost (it was stuck on rubble R.I.P.) and the 3rd time the Shermans won (the tiger was being loaded on a train so not really fair) and those are the only time us forces ran into tigers in Europe that can be confirmed
@@iamthehype3684 probably but us forces only encountered 3 tiger in 1944 (the Sherman won the first time the Pershing lost the second time it was stuck on rubble and the tiger lost the 3rd time it was being loaded onto a train or something so not really fair)
