Hi Odd! Amazing video as always. Long time follower. Maybe you should do a series like map guides or BR guides. I mean apart from your regular videos. I think atleast some of the people watching your videos don't know your train of thoughts, why you position yourself on certain spots, or when to play agressive, defensive. I know myself, that sometimes, I just like to see satisfying matches, but then again, whenever my brain is not too tired, I try to figure out how you do things so I can get better as well. I think a more advanced guide (not the ones like: set up your mouse scroller to adjust range blah blah blah) to War Thunder Tank RBs would be great. I'd love to get better myself at the game, even if I had just finished the german tech tree and consider myself a fairly good player. I'm sure a lot of people would be interested, not just me. I would love to know what are good spots on the map, or how you choose your positioning based on the ongoing match, how you pick your tactics; if you have a line-up of 4-5 different tanks, what would they be? How you'd go on about taking them into matches? etc.... the bigger picture. I mean if I keep pausing every 3 minutes, I can pick these up for myself in this as well, but thats kinda missing the point on watching a video without distractions. Maybe even the less attentive players could pick up a few tricks and get better. Again I love your videos. They are all amazing, you are one of the biggest inspirations for me to keep playing this game, and I'm very eager to hear your response and the community's response as well.
I would watch these video's.. I like your content and im always trying to learn something new. That would be nice, If you could make some quide video's!
I still remember the t25 with the stabilizer was probably the best medium tank or among the best in game for a long time and the only thing that gave it that status was that it was 6.0 and had the stab so what did gaijin do some how they found out that there was a prototype t25 that got the stab but not the standard version so they not only removed the stab they moved it to 6.3 so now it is just an up armored m36 at a battle rating that makes it worse than a sherman as far as survivability.
As a German main myself that also plays USA. It's true that the best WWII tanks are in Germany TT, but they are easy to take down using bombs. If Germany loses is because: they are really bad, or CAS reduces them to oblivion (again, I played USA and America/USSR pretty much spam CAS the first 3 minutes.
Big problem is also that they are on the same tier as cold war tanks, with modern shells that easy pen the thickest armor. If i play in tiger 2 on 6.7 and lower i easy get 6 kills avarage with the tiger II. But on max uptier(what i always get) i get an avarage of 2-3 kills with the tiger.
You should give the Strv m/42 EH a try. That thing is an amazing medium tank at 2.7, its 75mm APHE slaps like a 90mil, it has decent armour, good mobility... All in all a really underrated tank imo. I'd love to see you play it!
Even the solid shot is good since the reload is really decent. It's one of the tanks I wish would get some of the variants foldered even though they would be copypaste just so I can have more of em in the lineup.
The IKV 73 is a 2.7 premium that is very similar (possibly almost identical?) in both gun and chassis to the Strv m/42 EH! Sadly I don’t think it’s acquirable right now! (I personally don’t have it btw) The only kinda alternative is the IKV 72 which is the 1.7 TD with paper armour, but the same gun and equally good if not better speed. Plus has full neutral steering which can help swing the gun on target in leu of a turret!
one tank i love also is Zrinyi II from the Italian Tree, this thing is a Stug but better. with a 105 cannon, crazy reverse speed and acceleration, and 75mm of frontal armor at 2.7 if you dont count the extra track armor that reaches 90mm

@@liladoodlebro wtf no Poland has many of its own vehicles and it wouldn't make any sense to put it as Germany's subtree the only German vehicles Poland had are modern tanks and that's it
I personally struggle a bit with the 6.3 German lineup although I have improved greatly thanks to your videos. There are so many useful tips in your videos that have helped me greatly. Watching you play 5.7 and 6.3 Germany with the Do 335 also twisted my rubber arm into buying one... :) You also encouraged me to grind out the AD4 and I run it with a Corsair in USA and France and just loving the combo for my 6.0 lineups. Keep up the excellent content. Thank you !!! @OddBawZ
The map positioning thing is so true. When I climbed through 6.7 with germany, I suffered immensly with the king tiger. Now that I'm at 10.7 and have learned a lot about the game, I need a mental health break from russian premium cancer, so I went back through the BRs bottom up little by little, only to stick at 6.7. The King Tiger is actually consistently fun, which is really rare in WT.
Can we agree on the Tiger II looking awesome? I have the privilige, to have one standing around the corner in the Panzermuseum Munster and i am not small by any means. Not like the biggest guy, but 1.85m is slightly above the average and i can just comfortably sit inside the tracks. That thing is HUGE.
Absolutely, The only thing that lets down German amour down are the majority of German team players. Everyone rushes to spade the nation and are too "green" to use the German advantage, I still think the nerfing of the Comet really gave it a boost as could handle the mantlet, Great wide and flat BR line ups, with SPAA to cover.
As a Japan main at 6.7 currently, I never see Germany as a threat and in this case Tiger II, Its ammo in the back of the turret is major weakness and a lot of German players not the most situationally aware .
I thought for sure you was gonna break a wing in that tree flying that nuke in. My mouth dropped when I realized you didn’t see it coming and then seen that wing wobble🤯🤯🤯🫣🫣🫣🫢🫢🫢
Odd i would 100% say you are a professional i started watching your videos when i first started playing and learned pushes, peaks and weak points from your videos GOAT
Aside from this thing being very powerful in general, the main issue I have found is that shooting the is-6 barrel is hard cause of its turret traverse
My experience with 6.7 german is that 6.7 battles doesn't exist, only 7.3 & 7.7. And US super heavies are pain, those T34 / T29 / T26E5 need precise aim on somewhat tiny weakspots. Meanwhile the T34 can pen the 250mm casemate of the jagdtiger up to 600m away. Most of the time you first kill come back with CAS and murder you and 5 team mates anyway. i still manage to have good results in average.
'Maintain distance' Yeah that used to work but now all the sniping spots are removed and the old maps are becoming 3 lane tunnel crapfests with 20 IQ play to hold down a funnel.
M51 is disgusting. You can snipe with a stock tank at 1300m+ and outrange and accuracy everything from Germany. I don't know why it's 6.0 it has no business being spammed there.
Having lost my Panther II from this lineup I've been playing a new 6.0 with the Tiger E, Panther G and Panther A. It's been my go to this past month or so. Great game play right now in that bracket. Also been enjoying the TAM 2IP with the 1A5 and L44. It's a beast of a grinding lineup.
Thanks for the reminder that *EVERYTHING* surrounding this tank went up in BR so now not only does it not get to face a lot of the tanks that can reliably counter it but instead faces loads of tanks that are even less capable of defeating it than everything it was facing before. Genius move, gaijin, really shows who your favorite part of the playerbase really is.
I fear nothing, but damn if you face a squad of guys with clan tags and a line up of premium german tanks its a hard days at the office. I faced few random battles in a row a group of Panther II, Tiger II SLA 1,6 / 10,5cm defending a Maus. And yeah if you are in a Tiger II yourselve...the long 88 is great, but not that great at 6,7 anymore.
This is my most used tank and my favorite. Easily several hundred hours put into that one tank. I've gotten to the point where I don't even need to range a target, to know how far away it is, and where to put my sight. Takes less than a second to eyeball a 1000+ meter shot. Other tanks? Not so much.
The closest thing to the king tiger at 6.7 is the US T34 (which i love), and while it has good survivability and armor, it has a dozen weakspots and the King Tiger can still pen most places at close range. The Tiger ammo racks through the turret face with the 120mm is still really nice, though.
I like playing the T34 american heavy, its my favorite tank in the game, and my favorite enemy to face is the tiger 2, it can kill me as much as i can kill it and tho the former is always annoying, facing an equally good tank that is the same BR as you is always batter than going against atgms and jets
One of the earlier premiums that i bought. Got my Ass handed to me by cents left right and centre, but since they moved a lot of 7.7 and 7.3 tanks to 8.0 and i learned how to play a bit i enjoy my king tigers very much. Unfortunately for me they moved panther 2 and tiger 2 (10,5cm) to 7.0 because they made the lineup even better
Maybe they want to separate more br, like they moved cold war tanks a bit, so you cant meet absolute destroyers of your WWII tanks, and moved late WWII tanks, so when you play 4.7 you not gonna meet another destroyers of early WWII
Not sure what has happened to the game but in the last week I have experienced that the russian 57 was nerfed,bouncing from regular sherman and t14 front plate,where is garage pen chechk it should clearly go through. Also the american 76 now can 1 shot panthers with full crew at the optics on the mantlet which was not the case before.
I still remember my trauma, when i researched Tiger 1 many years ago, felt like king of the world with all that armor and first game i entered there was Tiger 2P spawned next to me....i felt SO FKIN BAD!
Game 3, I dont know if its just my region or what but going your starting route is just death, usually 80% of the enemy team is sitting just behind B looking down into your valley. I usually swing deep across the A line and come up basically straight down to C or snipe from behind the hill back there. The rest of my team either dies in the valley or dies pushing into B with a handful of wheely bois / fast tanks going A
As an italy main its so lovely to just being able to blast right trough this thing at any angle or spot. no need to be afraid of it if you got 400+ mm of pen😃
In my opinion as a french main, tiger 2s are free kills. No side armor to speak of and in the front the turret armor, while thick, is not angled, making it useless. Their ammo stowage explodes after being slightly tickled.

'Maintain distance' Yeah that used to work but now all the sniping spots are removed and the old maps are becoming 3 lane tunnel crapfests with 20 IQ play to hold down a funnel.
That machine is truly a monster in the game, except you're wrong. It can't really shrug off the 6.0 M51's round. Ask me how I know! haha
M51 is disgusting. You can snipe with a stock tank at 1300m+ and outrange and accuracy everything from Germany. I don't know why it's 6.0 it has no business being spammed there.
@@N4CRbecause its a pos sherman at 6.0? idiot
Yes yes yes 6.7 and below videos are the best love you bawz
Idk if you’ll ever see this but I’ve been so down lately but I’ve been watching your videos every night and it makes me so happy love you man
The funny thing is, i actually recently started playing the Tigers again and lately i have been LOVING them.
Having lost my Panther II from this lineup I've been playing a new 6.0 with the Tiger E, Panther G and Panther A. It's been my go to this past month or so. Great game play right now in that bracket. Also been enjoying the TAM 2IP with the 1A5 and L44. It's a beast of a grinding lineup.
"Shrug off anything at it's BR" gets turret penned by every Pershing, which there's like 6
Dude don't be shy. You're an expert in warthunder. Absolute prime.
this beauty was my first premium and good video i like your content
can you respawn prem tanks?
that nuke round was an absolute FUCKING carry
casually saves a game single handedly
This thing is the E 75 of War Thunder, love it.
just completely fireman carrying the entire team in that second game holy cow
It's not just the tank bro its just your WT skills haha, always in good position to clap the enemy. Though def great pen on this gun!
This tank worth a buy. Actually worth it
The „Oh oh“ at 5:20 absolutely killed me
"A pershing Sherman, a Shershing" LoL
I'm a German main and my pc died a few weeks ago I needed this video I miss da bois.
I love facing any tiger 2 at range with my M56 slinging 300+ mm of heat
then getting mg'd
I’d love to see the “experts “ play off against each other using same BR. No more cannon fodder.
as a US main, I have a great solution for fighting tigers and panthers, it's called m41 walker bulldog with the APDS shell
i love when bawz says BESH..... bless you
Every time I play this tiger I get one shot from miles away 😂 skill issue I know but gods no way I should get penned as often as I do
You are not the only one
All my favorite videos of yours are when you play 5.7-6.7 Germany.
Thanks for the reminder that *EVERYTHING* surrounding this tank went up in BR so now not only does it not get to face a lot of the tanks that can reliably counter it but instead faces loads of tanks that are even less capable of defeating it than everything it was facing before.
Genius move, gaijin, really shows who your favorite part of the playerbase really is.
NVM i was thinking of the Tiger II (P), my bad.
I fear nothing, but damn if you face a squad of guys with clan tags and a line up of premium german tanks its a hard days at the office. I faced few random battles in a row a group of Panther II, Tiger II SLA 1,6 / 10,5cm defending a Maus.
And yeah if you are in a Tiger II yourselve...the long 88 is great, but not that great at 6,7 anymore.
Interesting thing about the Big Bengal. In an up tier it typically means EVEN MORE Tiger IIs than normal.
Imagine if this tank also had canon STAB and 50cal machine gun on roof with full range of motion not that crappy one that's it got!
Nice to see a fellow Panther A/Do 335 B2 enjoyer
Surely one of my favorite premium in the game alongside the american T20
As a Brit main I love when the eneny spawns king tigers
This is my most used tank and my favorite. Easily several hundred hours put into that one tank. I've gotten to the point where I don't even need to range a target, to know how far away it is, and where to put my sight. Takes less than a second to eyeball a 1000+ meter shot. Other tanks? Not so much.
The Long '88 is the best non-modern gun ingame, you can't change my mind
People use rangefinder to find the range? Wtf I always use my eyes never rangefinder
"For some reason, people who main Germany don't understand the concept of maintaining a distance" -OddbawZ after knife fighting for 2 matches.
Oh Peculiar Testicle of the Tubes, I summon thee presence to play the newly aquired flat T-62.
The closest thing to the king tiger at 6.7 is the US T34 (which i love), and while it has good survivability and armor, it has a dozen weakspots and the King Tiger can still pen most places at close range. The Tiger ammo racks through the turret face with the 120mm is still really nice, though.
single handedly carry me through the great sl depression era
I like playing the T34 american heavy, its my favorite tank in the game, and my favorite enemy to face is the tiger 2, it can kill me as much as i can kill it and tho the former is always annoying, facing an equally good tank that is the same BR as you is always batter than going against atgms and jets
That intro had some presidential campaign vibes lol
The king is back 🎉
One of the earlier premiums that i bought. Got my
Ass handed to me by cents left right and centre, but since they moved a lot of 7.7 and 7.3 tanks to 8.0 and i learned how to play a bit i enjoy my king tigers very much. Unfortunately for me they moved panther 2 and tiger 2 (10,5cm) to 7.0 because they made the lineup even better
That second game like 50% of the killfeed was enemy CAS. Insane.
Tiger II has dodged the last two BR changes and benefited highly from them. Kinda crazy it's still at 6.7 considering all its peers have moved.
Maybe they want to separate more br, like they moved cold war tanks a bit, so you cant meet absolute destroyers of your WWII tanks, and moved late WWII tanks, so when you play 4.7 you not gonna meet another destroyers of early WWII
31:30 - Seems to be the case in general. It's always the ones with 0 or 1 kills and 3 deaths blaming everything on the team and flaming in chat.
Nice work. Looked fun. Please play the type 89. Need a demo
Not sure what has happened to the game but in the last week I have experienced that the russian 57 was nerfed,bouncing from regular sherman and t14 front plate,where is garage pen chechk it should clearly go through. Also the american 76 now can 1 shot panthers with full crew at the optics on the mantlet which was not the case before.
I still remember my trauma, when i researched Tiger 1 many years ago, felt like king of the world with all that armor and first game i entered there was Tiger 2P spawned next to me....i felt SO FKIN BAD!
Game 3, I dont know if its just my region or what but going your starting route is just death, usually 80% of the enemy team is sitting just behind B looking down into your valley. I usually swing deep across the A line and come up basically straight down to C or snipe from behind the hill back there. The rest of my team either dies in the valley or dies pushing into B with a handful of wheely bois / fast tanks going A
As an italy main its so lovely to just being able to blast right trough this thing at any angle or spot. no need to be afraid of it if you got 400+ mm of pen😃
I call this thing the Tiger ll H slap.16 bc it just slaps tanks like it’s nothing with its shells
Watching you fly that nuke in to a tree 😮
In my opinion as a french main, tiger 2s are free kills. No side armor to speak of and in the front the turret armor, while thick, is not angled, making it useless. Their ammo stowage explodes after being slightly tickled.
lmao is that the new crew audio effects? the guy screaming is hilarious
Germany is a GOATed tech tree. The amount of satisfying vehicles in there is insane.
