Been a long time fan, been rewatching all the good, the bad, and the ugly videos again, and even got back into the game after nearly a decade. Awesome to see you still make wot content. Talk about commitment!!!
Ok, time for the "AKSHUALLY JINGLES" moment: Jingles got two wrong things about this tank. - The first one is that the tank that directly used technology taken from the captured T-62 was the first "completely indigenous" Chinese MBT, the WZ-121 aka Type 69. You could say that the project 122 took stuff from the T-62 as well, due to the fact that it was the follow-up to the WZ-121 (as the number implies), but it wasn't a tank based on the Soviet tank per se. - The second one is that it was a very real project that, after many years, hiccups and a Cultural Revolution that blocked things for a while, ended up becoming a mass produced tank, the WZ-122 or Type 80. However, what we have in WoT is the first prototype from that project, using the name of the second prototype. The first prototype, the 122A, 122-1 or 122 "Triple Hydro", used a completely new hydromatic transmission, hydropneumatic suspension and hydro-assistive clutch (hence, triple hydro). It used a 120 mm smoothbore gun and 4 ATGMs, and it looked exactly like the one we have in the game. However, the hydraulic systems proved unreliable, so the Chinese developed a second prototype that used mechanical versions of the aforementioned systems, as well as a new 120 mm gun. That second prototype got shelved as well, simply because it wasn't advanced enough after taking all those new hydro things away. It is known as the 122B, 122-2 or 122 "Triple Mechanic" (TM), which is the name of the vehicle we have in the game. So we have the looks of the first prototype and the name of the second, because the "Triple Mechanic" used a different fume extractor, according to some pictures in the interwebs. Oh, and one last thing: Chinese tank projects that didn't reach the mass production phase didn't receive the WZ designation, so the 122 name is correct.
This was a great watch. Love to see great teamwork and beautiful synergy between 2 randoms in any game. This kinda reminds me of the better days of WOT
The crashing plane was a surprise. Never seen that before. I don't even play WoT but watch all your WoT vids, Jingles. Keep up the awesome work and hope your health is good.
Me seeing the title and instantly thinking it's about a French tank, because reasons ... was a little disappointed at first but satified later. Thanks Jingles, time to hit the Salt Mines again.
Both players, the Med and the Light, played this map like you should, slow and steady and TOGETHER.. It was nice seeing however a light tank player not sui-scouting but playing his tank to its strength and working with someone, and the same with the Med player, for recognizing the scout and working with him
I am an avid lover of my 122 TM. It's personally one of my favorite premium tanks. This is a very good tank to just pester people on the flank with. I've had 7k games in it and it can definitely carry, so long as you are patient. Although the "limited" ammo can come into play some times
This tank is also on the console version of the game where it's called the WZ-122, the major differences being that it is a Cold War mode premium and therefore gets those rocket pods you see on the sides of the gun to shoot ATGMs.
In the early years, a decade ago, the SU-100 was one of my favourite TDs. It had an above average gun and could pen most tier 7 without issue. T8 tanks and especially heavies were a big challenge but focussing on the smaller threats worked to it's advantage. Pinging away at heavies or extreme armoured trolls like the AT-8 is not it's job. I clocked 255 games in my SU-100: 2 top guns, 3 high calibers, which is not anything with that many games, but it speaks to whats possible. I ended it's career with 54% win rate. It may even be one of the best Tier 6 TDs in the game, even to today. Not discounting the Nashorn(146 games with 61% WR) which is the best gun with similar mobility challenges as the SU-100.
Superb as usual. BTW I just realised something. I often watch youtube on a Humax box and it is not easy to flag a LIKE if the video ends immediately (the controls are VERY laggy). 10 or so seconds of warning at the end would give me time to hit pause and then get to the LIKE button. Maybe just replay your intro video at the end, or sick up a weekly release schedule slide for a bit.
If you have the replay file, Replay Manager which is a mod in Aslain's pack will allow you to view the battle results in your game client once you have copied the file into your replays folder.
In typical fashion the top tier player sits and watches his team mate die fifty feet away when there was nearly no risk to themselves if they did help, none of the tanks on that side can easily pen his turret, and then like a fucking genius he lets the autoloader reload.
Ah, the 122 TM. A favored premium to play when I was nearing the end of my time with WoT. I was lucky enough for one to pop out of a Santa crate a friend bought me. And it *can* brawl, just rather poorly. I have a match I played where a full HP VK30.02D rushed my lowish hp 122TM at match end and simply failed to pen my tank for the full minute it took me to slaughter him. Why could he not kill me? I gave him the ol' side hug and every shell he fired simply bounced off my gun mantlet.
This is why I don't play WoT. Every thousand games or so, you get someone who plays with you like this, and its great fun and rewarding. And then in the other 999 games, everybody ignores you, does stupid shit and dies.
i was playing WOWS the other day & just randomly, for no apparent reason, I lost my internet for @ 30 seconds. Just gone. Poof. Disconnected. Was on ethernet - nothing moved, nothing changed, it just went blink - off. then just as suddenly, it popped back on. very strange. made no difference in the battle but it was stressful, lol. so not everyone who goes afk means to, lol.
Dear Jingles. I am your big fan. I am one year younger but I have went to school earlier so with your generation. As genX people we share so many things. So I know you will not take this negatively as it was not meant negatively at all. All that said one can notice you haven't played this year in a long long long time. So ti is no more your thing. As you are intelligent person you caught up with 3-5 minutes games and a bit of the current meta but things have changed even way way more. Let me explain some of it. Due to constant yolo actions and way things happen nowadays alpha damage is sort of the king. Armor and HP amount means a lot as well. You will see that some really good players use heavy tank equipment on glass cannon tanks just to be able to have bit more survivability and resistance to HE. And they sacrifice even stabs to get for example turbo and get some more speed. They are trying to make tanks that aren't balanced more balanced and still have that one good thing about that design. Nowadays brawling is not the same as it was. For example Type59 wolfpack aren't brawling setup at all. Some tank even change it's function depending on the tier of the fight they get and change equipment setup to match current situation. So same medium tank might be scout or damage dealer. Now let me tell you about 122TM. DPM is shit. But it has good alpha. To make the gun handle well you need to wait a long time, plus pray that cold dead hand of Mau Ze Tung guide your shell or spend tons of skills and Equipment and directive and crew skills to make it behave. Plus you need to be lucky. It does not have good gun handling. Second it is a brawler in todays meta especially if it is a top tier especially when it is against Bourrasque and later on Progetto 46. It has really good armor. Nowadays brawler needs to dictate a battle, be able to bounce and be able to slap with good alpha. His role though then changes in anything else even medium distance sniper as soon as it sees tier IX or tier X. Then you are right it should not brawl for sure. it needs to be careful and pick his fights and enemies he is going to fight. I guess QB has talked about this type of tanks a tons. He is big fan of for example 430 for average people. With good reason as well. I would always go rather Bourrasque or progetto46 but QB is right. 122TM slaps. Now I am at almost 12th minute of the video and I have liked it as you deserve every video to be liked and supported. But up to now I do not see anything good in this game. Many people should say as soon as he saw what is up on the water line side of the map he should have yoloed bourrasque frist time he was reloading. That was huge wate of time as later on he did it anyway and for free as well. By now he did not show any brilliant moves or great decisions or anything special. He sees tier VII tanks he is suppose to slap them to the next map. You need to use those moments when MM gives you a freebee. For each time you get to see lower tier tanks you get 5 games where you are bottom tier in tier VIII tank. Playing tankies is awful especially nowadays with all the missions and 5x and all extra stuff going on. WoT changed extremely. You wouldn't like it at all. If you were playing you would be crying for the time when you have quit to come back because now ti is way worse. OP tanks. 3-5 minutes fights. BS mechanics. MM is awful. Map rotation is a joke. If you have chosen standard battle only and you do not want those shitty events ruin your games because team does not react good on those event and you have barred some maps you will be playing 3-4 maps only every night. You will get standard versions of the maps that have events on them once in one or even two months only. For example Prokorowka comes once in two months for me and I play almost scouts only nowadays. Plus maps that are left will be even more yolo maps because those do not have events. It is awful all of it. Plus games with 6 red players i none team and no green or blue players in that team while enemies get 5 green players and a blue player is normal stuff. Tons of bot and tons of new people with 0k or 1K games playing Patton the Prank and GDOR the Prank and ruining the tier IX matchmaking. One team gets The Prank tank platoon and the other gets Super OP DZT rocket medium uniqum platoon. guess who is going to win? Enough rant. Sorry I have had to. Love ya and love your stuff.
isn't the 122MT supposed to be a dart slinger? Or is this an other one of war gamins refusal to add correct ammunition to tanks with the pretence of not wanting to add more modern vehicles?
Judging by the amount of positive and friendly communication between players, this is a NA server game, methinks. No way the EU server would be so free of toxicity.
In my experience playing WOW or WOT . Some of the AFK players at the beginning of the matches are on potato computers ot laptops. They get kicked at the start of 1 out of evey 5 games because of their comp shiting itself.
Saying communist so many times makes me think you dont know what communism is. The soviets were barely socialist and the chinese are as fascist as can be.
@@AdamtheRed- The Soviet Union and People's Republic of China label themselves as Communist. Why blame someone for taking those nations' self-identification at face value, when any error in that identification is the fault of the nations in question? If you don't like people calling the USSR and PRC Communist then blame the USSR and PRC for calling themselves Communist. Argue with the PRC for calling themselves Communist and go tell the Chinese Communist Party that they don't deserve that label and should change their name because they are giving actual Communists a bad name and see how that works out. Jingles isn't calling everything Communist he is calling the USSR and PRC who are or were controlled by their Communist Parties Communist, which seems fair to me. If the Communist Parties of the PRC and USSR weren't behaving like real Communists should that is something you should take up with those parties not people on RUclips enjoying a video about digital tanks fighting each other.
5:00 This map has a built-in Jingles landing? Our Evil Gnome Overlord even has the nerve to deny it was anything to do with him. I'm impressed.
Saw you on QB's stream and it was so happy happy joy joy seeing the old tog team back in action. Take care and Best Wishes always. Carry on.
They played together again? I'll have to find that stream
The M6 in the Chat at around 5:40... "yes sorry black out with the computer". Now we know what happened
Kudos to Jingles for calling that out, too, and apologising c:
As our overlord predicted
@@Dannii502 It's like clockwork.

Oh, and one last thing: Chinese tank projects that didn't reach the mass production phase didn't receive the WZ designation, so the 122 name is correct.
sweet.. thank you.
Impressive! And probably far more study brought your post than Wargaming applied to the last 40 tanks introduced into the game. 😉
This was a great watch. Love to see great teamwork and beautiful synergy between 2 randoms in any game. This kinda reminds me of the better days of WOT
Inedded! Nice to see that WG hasn't managed to nerf teamwork . . . yet.
I love how the E-25 player is very polite in his anger
Always lovely to see Jingles in the new year.
Haven't played WoT for over 5 years and still don't miss Jingle's videos 😅
same
You used to make us hand written game post before why we can’t have it now 😂 thanks for the video love ya
The crashing plane was a surprise. Never seen that before. I don't even play WoT but watch all your WoT vids, Jingles. Keep up the awesome work and hope your health is good.
Darling, Jingles' just dropped a new WoT video!
Love your voice Jingles especially when I instead learning for my new job listening to it and watch wot video

Jingles back to normal but was he ever normal
No homemade results screen?
but i wanted to witness jingles' great drawing skills again
So I get a birthday cake, and i WOT replay from Jingles, what a treat!
What, no Jingles post battle results screen? 😢
Thank you for sharing this battle with us! 😊
I haven't played WoT in more than 2 years. But Jingles videos on WoT are like ASMR to me. All is now good in the world, Trump & Putin be damned.
Haven't played since October, also deleted the account, still love seeing Jingles showcasing replays.
Dont forget Xi Jinping in that group
One a dictator who started a war of conquest, the other literally the only good option their country has. Not a very educated remark.
Strange to see those 2 people on one list🤔
@@iBlendrYaBollocksThey are close.
Good afternoon Gnome Overlord. All the best.

Pretty sure there was 1 prototype made of this tank witb those funny atgm launchers on either side of the gun
There are even pictures of it, rotting and rusting away
Not only there are pictures, but there were more than one prototype for this project.
I love watching this game…I can’t play to save my life though…and I was a Chieftain/Challenger driver!
Great video, thanks!

5:03 that plane and their crew seem to be having a bad day
I was super confused about Leuska's sudden name change at the end, until I realized they must have been using the anonymizer.

When I saw the title 'Love Story', I thought it would be a light tank and a bush.
Or arty and a deep enough puddle.
The 122 TM is a kind of "what if" the Chinese were able to make something....and full stop.
The guy who wrote in the chat "you aint good", his nickname means "I play naked" :D
Attack with badgers
Where is our hand drawn post battle result screen please? :D
