This was my first free t9 heavy and man this tank the definition of russian if look up the Russian anthem and play it backwards this tank is mentioned🙃👌🏾😎💪
Whenever I play with this tank, I swear to God, in which ever angle I position myself, side scrape, going straight, reverse side scrape everything is auto bounce it's actually INSANE.....I rarely lose more than 500hp per game....The armor is so freaking trollish it is unreal....All I have to do is wiggle when they aim for me and boom, auto bounce... Perfect russian assault tank
I started playing WoT for the first time very recently and you're already my fav streamer. Love your attitude and how you explain things, I'm learning a lot from you. Hopefully I'll get your commander and style, fingers crossed!
It works surprisingly well on Prokhorovka hill, people from town have a really hard time penetrating your side, while you overmatch the tops of the tanks coming up the hill
This tank in a nutshell: You better hope enemies dont know how to pen you. Otherwise, Its Meh... at least for me. BTW i hope you get the 3 Million points.
This tank in a nutshell: When in doubt, show your side and pray. To be honest I researched is7 like 2 weeks ago and this obj was a beast, has a problem with accuracy and can't hit shit while on the move but it's a true brawler with a good gun and as long as you stay in a straight line and don't angle your frontal armor, the enemy is stupid and you make them hit your side armor you can stomp games
@@danielfraiz74 Or you can just reverse sidescrape with it. I left so many people scratching their heads, when I did that. Most people know how to deal with sidescraping V shaped hull, but not a lot of people know about this tank's weak "forehead". If I'll ever struggle with bouncing missions, I'll buy this tank again and laugh all the way to the bank.
ever had problems penning this tank, the roof is easy to pen and when it sidescape all u need to do is to wait till he show hiss hull and penetration guaranteed
Day 29 Skillllll still wanna just one little battle on cute fluffy yellow ducky amx-40 , and u know what they say Never gonna give you up Never gonna let you down Never gonna run around and desert you :*👌
if you can keep your lower plate protected, just face directly at the enemy, sidescarping from the front will flatten the pike nose... reverse sidescraping (generally is on most tanks with the turret mounted on the front of the hull) used to be very effective in the is4, not played much russian heavies in years though..
I was grinding to get the IS7 and had seen this review of Obj 257. I thought Skil said it was a mediocre tank and at first that was my mindset. But 300 games later 56% winrate, 34% survival rate and somehow I click with this tank. I think one of the advantages is that everyone wants to concentrate on the tier 10 meta tank. There is no glory in killing the 257. I have a couple 100 games in the IS7 and have a 50% winrate but it is only because I got into a less aggressive mode from 257.
The T95 has cupolas that are supposed to balance its armor. I understand why people choose HEAT, but it's unbalanced to an extent because the higher penetration has no trade-off. Thanks for uploading! :)
T95 cupolas are super trollish, their hurtbox is only in the dead center and ramps up to 300 near the edges making gold useless anyways. Also HEAT does have downsides such as slower shell velocity and being absolute garbage at penning spaced armor - you can't track and do damage at the same time with heat.
skill when i was playing 257 i was literally driving it butt in front, and sideways, from building to building and making enemy go "what a moron... ahhhh...."
Skill everytime he gets to Berlin map: I like this map. I know there is a lot of people that do not enjoy it but i thik it is completly fine Yes Skiell we know it :P you love Berlin
A lot of perfectly placed shots missed, take the good with the bad, and don't worry about nothing, because nothing is gunna be alright, great video man, thanx for posting.
Finally! My prayers have been answered. Thank you for making this video Skill. This is the tank that frustrates me since the day I bought it. Later edit: I demand a redo, this tank still sucks even when you play it (like a donkey) 😂
I would love to see old commanders as a skins with their voice lines for tank commanders, because when I got from recent drops my beauty skill, he was naked basically, so I put him on russian artillery :)
Very true, one game the armor does nothing at all. Next game you drive into Murovanka forest, tank half the enemy team and come out with full hp. It's purest Stalinium.
you can use this to piss of your enemy: use explosive ammo when they are capping cuz to take away their score you needd to do dmg and you have 100% chance to do dmg
I use this tank as an assault brawler, I just go ham to make my enemy nervous about my confidence and they don't know where to shoot, when the game slows down I use it as a backwards side scraper and when the situation is rough I simply show my side to get troll bounces and take the opportunity
Skill tip for you- if someone is caping in that base on Berlin and he is hull-down (really hard to pen) you can just load HE and do like 50 hp dmg or so but you will reset. You can also do a critical hit to reset(hit the gun with heat or he.)
Remember the days when you had to deal with T95, IS-7 and Maus without gold ammo? It somehow worked, even when facing those tanks frontally. It feels as though the skill to do just that has been lost to most players. Pressing the "2" key is just so much simpler...
Agree, I never ever shoot gold rounds, it's much more rewarding to outplay an enemy with skill rather than pressing the 2 key and making armor completely irrelevant. That's why I only play fast and lightly armored tanks, as armor is useless when everyone just spamming gold. If they would nerf gold ammo, by half the damage, it would be a lot better.
@@danieldaniel1210 All the tanks I 3 marked are without any gold rounds. That's including the M46. While some tanks make it a LOT easier, not all tanks need full gold for that. And yes, you need more than gold spam to be a good player, but spamming gold takes up 75% of that.
@@danieldaniel1210 Easy, did a couple already. Something something aiming, something something map awereness, something something reengaging and so on..
I remember that I hated so mutch the gun handling of this vehicle, it trolled me so hard 😵. But the armor was fantastico (except for the big weakespot on the roof, but at least there Is a weakespot 😅)
remember to always raise your pp first it boosts ur rng bc skillpapa sees you then and second it strikes fear in your enemies and you're more likely to win
@Children enthusiast No, there is way more satisfaction when you get 257 and it is a way better tank with way better gun. About tier 8 premium that I reccomend if you have 257, then it is worth to buy OBJ-703-2 :)
Skill you gold noob Sue me fellas Funny thing is there is a carzy guy in our clan that was talking about sueing war gaming because of mm Its always fun to listen to him and laugh
Something tells me Skil's Lithuanian Ancestors charged into battle wearing nough but their birthday suits, with raging boners. It must've been a frightening sight to see an extra spear for every man on the field...
I'm team Orzanel but havent played for the past couple of days as there is no teamplay. Nearly every time the team scatters instead of staying together and covering each other.
GUYS LETS HELP ORZANELS ... I picked NewMulti, but I want to help Orzanels guys to get their commander and camo... actually we can help... lets rise our pipis and let us get banged :-D while playing against Orzanels... share it guys on wot chat in battle and lets help theme :-)
But Skieeellll.... I joined per your request the Orzanel team, and its fn hard, my son is in the 1st place team and he is wining all the time ;) grrr Skieeellll....this one is on you!
Gold ammo and arty is the reason I only play lightly armored and fast tanks. Arty doesn't care about armor and everyone spamming full gold, so armor is also irrelevant. They should really nerf gold ammo damage by half. So people would have to make a decision. 90% of the "unicums" however will either stop playing (damn, we need to aim? What is that?) or complain. 🙂
Skill all respect for you and your decision to support Orzanel, he is after all from Romania like me, but his streams are kind of boring. I watched him a few times and I was not entertained at all. When i watch you, I get the feeling that i want to play the game, but he made me close the game lol. So boring, no wonder few support him and i am sure he got a boost from your side because to be honest people are joining him because of you. This is my oppinion and yes I did not support your team when you were in the event, but I didnt know who you are as a person so i picked the team with the camo that I like.
When skill goes into the mid area no one hits him from the mid, when i go a td and an autoloader just wreck me. And skill's average dmg in the 3 battles was 3152,(6).
Due to the bad match maker and RNG in WoT I carry a fifty percent load out of gold on tanks. There are some tanks that I carry no stock ammo, only gold and a few a few HE. It is hard to progress though as most games lose credits. The game is definitely more stressful and depressing than it should be.
I haven't played team clash much. I found it too expensive playing at tier 10 constantly. They need to put credit boosters into the mode to reduce your financial risk. The 7 vs 7 format is fun and I would have played more if it were at tier 8.
the 257 the one tank I wish I could grinded the tier 10 it lead to before wargaming put it the game. it's not a bad tank but feels like a worse T-10 at least to me.
That's the issue I had with it while side scraping backwards, if the enemy knew that they could simply shoot my turret I could get hit by half my hp while thinking I was safe

@@brakhai5605 I was talking about myself and no the tank. lol
I really like the 257, just got it. Even at stock it is still very enjoyable, unlike other Tier 9 stock heavy tanks.

Yes Skiell we know it :P you love Berlin
Ah yes. The IS-3 but bigger
But you know what's bigger? The T-34-1's buff that made it from a good tank to an even better tank
The only tank which I didn't like in the IS-7 line. After the glorious IS-3, this was just so frustrating! Cheers for the video

iv been side scraping all wrong!!. thanks this will help with my current grind of the 257. thanks skill
The ultimate tank would be the defender front, 257 sides and is7 turret
Don't forget about STB-1-Gundepression and Kranvagn-Triple-Barrel-Autoreloader :-D
Aims high at the Patton - misses - blames the gun... :p
I don't know, but I like more to play Leo PTA or Standard B, with 257 all my enemies know where to pen me, or there are 3 arty banging me.
I think the 7v7 Clash was a GREAT game mode. Had lots fun.
I like your movies- gj for players who start this game , gl bro.
Maybe the next is7? greetings from Poland
obj 257 is the definiton of RNG .

But I'm speaking of quite time ago, so probably i had not a very good crew and maybe not a good equipment's build on it

The tank which has better side armour than frontal xD Rashaa
Yes i shoot few time under 90 angle OBJ 257 with Scorp G and cant pen that with AP:):)
Tier 9 DEFENDER, if you have OBJ-257, then buying the DEFENDER is not worth it.

Until you meet the 135mm or higher guns

Funny thing is there is a carzy guy in our clan that was talking about sueing war gaming because of mm
Its always fun to listen to him and laugh
The first Berlin battle you now already know you should have loaded HE, especially after first failed attempt! 😉 👍🏼
I can't make it work either. Good couple of games there Skill, cheers!
All 91mm and above can penetrate roof-top, and dont shoot side turret if you dont have 240+mm of pen
Skill keeping it lite! love it - never takes the game too serious
At 9:38 its a bad move your lower side is 45mm so t95 will bang u if he shot ap with 155mm
