Leclercs are the vehicles I have the best KDs in. Sitting at a very comfortable 3.5 KD in the S2 and the others are all at 2.5+. People that say the Leclercs are mid just don’t play it properly.
to be fair they are just a better russian mbt imo pretty much similar weak spots but way better reload, im still waiting for a new ground premium for them so i can grind it out
Well, performance wise they are pretty mid. Comparing them to every other mbt they were arguably worse except for the Ariete and they only just got their reload buffed. Just French tankers are built different so it makes all the difference, no hand holding equals savage tankers.
Justin? Could you bring out the combo of the VFM5 and the Buccaneer S2.? Specifically, the Buccaneer's 16x RP-3 loadout - these rockets oneshot soviet T-series tanks if you park them on the roof or on the tracks, and you get a ballistic calculator to help you do that! Come in low and fast to avoid SAMs, with a salvo of 2-3 to manage the dispersion on them. The VFM5 is a very consistent way to get into the plane, and I've been enjoying them both at 9.3 very much recently! Day 7
France has probably never been this strong in ground and cas before. F16A is my beloved just because it doesnt lock up above 1000 km/h unlike the F16c. Unfortunately the American F16A doesnt get a targeting pod but the French one does(Ik it doesn’t have the best thermals but its still a pod) which is great factor for being effective in cas.As you said, unfortunately other nations get better cookies than the ones who made the cookie:( Thank you for your high quality content Justin:)
In light of the APHE changes coming up, would it be possible to take out a classic combo? Jumbo M4A3E2 (76) and the Bearcat with 20mm's and 3x 1000lb bombs? It really is a killer combo, I consistently get 7+ kill games with it and it's really one of the most enjoyable WT experiences.
i love these style of videos, one of my other fave wt youtubers named Hunter does a similar thing. i love when he plays uk toptier duos with a chally and the strike tornado, maybe u should try it out sometime
Hey Justin, can you do a video explaining how you have your keybinds setup along with how you lock/perform CAS strikes so well? I thought I had my keybinds setup but it seems like I'm never able to get my ordinance to drop correctly. Thanks man!
11:28 I honestly intercepted 3 Kh-38Ts in one game, and they all launched one after the other. I did that with a Pantsir idk if other SPAAs can do that, but all I know is that any SPAA other than the Pantsir is garbage.
It got a lot of potential in term of vehicles that could be added, but Gayjin hate France so not sure... (6.7, 7.7 and 9.7 is really good. 5.3 and 11.7 is good)
Hey Justin 2 things one can we see a m1a1 and f4e video. I have had amazing games at 11.0 about 1 and 10 games are up tiers but thats it. And 2 that reason the MAWS works half the time is because you only had one side of it so would only work for missiles approaching on your right side.
I think that in the case of smaller trees getting better variants of usa vehicles ia fine, you grind usa for the variety of good vehicles, you grind the small trees for a specific variant
Dont know why but i pref CAS part of the video almost 80% of the time...its just that i know how to play on ground but i never managed to use top tier CAS in good way and it feels nice looking at it😂😂
I love having air in ground rb. It's realistic and done well for the most part. We desperately need sp increases for fast movers though. I can do nothing in my flarakrad about the modern air launched stand off munitions. Air to air loadouts in GRB should cost way less than air to ground loadouts. Look into other mid range aa platforms that are available and consider adding theatre air defense like patriot and s-300 behind airfields that have coverage that extends out to the enemy's engagement distance.
I just wish the Israeli F16D Barak II had AGM65D and Gs. Granted, I think it carried more advanced than that IRL, so probably won't have it's true loadout of Python-4 and sky sniper or RAMPAGE missiles for a long while.
And in some time we will have the Leclercs with the Rafale and the Leo2 A7 with the Eurofighter. Maybe then the abomitation that is IT with the best Leopard no longer matter too much because of the better lineup. But truth is, top tier is PAIN to play, 1 death quit town. Until this is fixed the only actually fun WT is WW2 WT.
Minor Nations are almost always going to end up with better versions of vehicles than the host nation excepting vehicles that were gimped for export (like Abrams without DU) just by virtue of them often not being able to afford a new type and instead having to upgrade their existing ones long after the host nation has moved on.
That makes zero sense? So the host nation stopped development? Lol.. Every export tank is weaker than the one each host nation uses. What are you smoking?
@@spazz954 He is correct up to a point, but definitely not for the vehicles we have now. What he is saying is only true for vehicles that the host nation stopped using i.e. the F-4 for example, Japan has probably the best F-4 because they were still upgrading them long after the US had already stopped using them. For vehicles we have now this is of course not true, because the US is still upgrading the M1, F-16, F-15, F-18, etc etc.
Not but nothing at all makes the Italian Leopard 2a7HU better, rather a disadvantage because you can destroy the tank with overpressure and not the German one because there is nothing half a meter above the tank
Very old reward from backing the pro league back in the day. Back in like 2020 they also brought it back as a reward for watching the twitch stream of the pro league, that’s how I got it. Haven’t ever seen it since then
To the people who say the Leclercs are shit: They are not. Honestly envy the nations that have nice lineups while also not having proper top tier ground premiums yet, with France being one of them. *cries in having to tryhard because Click Bait players are so bad*
You can use spaa, smoke, cover and map awareness to counter CAS. If you are still struggling and wish there was no CAS at all then I suggest you play something that doesn’t frustrate you as much, CAS is part of the game and you either adapt or play something else.
Justin, its not called turret down position, its called HULL-DOWN position, cos its your hull that are covered, and turret that are sticking up.. ;-) it makes me cringe everytime you say it your way.
@@JustinPlaysTV ohh.. hell i didnt know that, it makes more sence now. thx for clearifying.Very good video btw. I enjoy your combined videos a lot, esp with some good cas or helli´s in them.
JUSTINNNNNNNN!!!!!!! You gotta make a video about, what pros (you) do in certain situations, it would be awesome. Like make a vid on say the tkx and the f-15jm (dont do it, top tier is not that fun) but you demonstrate what to do while ur in the situation ur in and how to get out of it, in short words, give us tips while ur playing and making a vid. Sorry if that doesnt make sense, i dont blame you, its hard to explain. @JustinPlaysTV

I really hope they bolster the 10.0 to 10.3 French lineup with leclerc prototypes

French are crybabys who instead of use the leclerc as an leclerc they want use it as an 2A7 with BVM armor lol
@@calebbrown2776 the Leclerc is better than the challenger, Abrams, Merkava, Chinese tanks and arietes so it’s not mediocre by any means

!!!!!
That’s so random tho that applies to most rockets anyway
That shot and the reaction at the low-flying Su-25T at 17:13 was sick 👏
And it's good'to mention the XXI has an additional armour block under the gunner's Optic, making the tank incapable of penning itstelf there.

see you playing the f16 of my country put a smile on my face, a bit stressed cause i have 3 exams this week : )
Dont you have summer holidays
@@xD-mc5po well yes ofc but i missed some of my exams in january and june so i have to do them this week
@@letankiste2340 that really sucks. Good luck man
@@xD-mc5po thank you very much bro : )
Same brother got prelim coming up got to get that academic comeback 😂
Also the Belgian F-16 is the lightest with the AIM-120s and 9M as well as getting the AGM-65G the SAP/bomb one so that’s nice.
65Gs are unneeded and bad on the F-16s, you can have only two instead of 6 and the damage of normal Mavericks is now 90% as reliable as on the G
I love te combo videos, hope you keep them going. More interesting than just one or the other.

I'm just waiting for the Benelux ground sub tree, then I can have my T-15 light tank and T-13 tank destroyer.
It will be not in the next update 😢
(Just the costal fleet for France 🙃)
this combo videos are the best

Keep playing top tier!!
Watching that f16 gameplay Im convinced now that I dont want to be anywhere near to top tier ground RB
11:28 I honestly intercepted 3 Kh-38Ts in one game, and they all launched one after the other.
I did that with a Pantsir idk if other SPAAs can do that, but all I know is that any SPAA other than the Pantsir is garbage.
Should I grind France? I already have air completed, just missing ground. But I don’t know if it’s worth it or not. Any recommendations?
It got a lot of potential in term of vehicles that could be added, but Gayjin hate France so not sure... (6.7, 7.7 and 9.7 is really good. 5.3 and 11.7 is good)
Yeah its worth it , use the somua or the super for grind don't buy the vbci
Its pretty simple why italy gets the better 2A7 😅 Germany didnt want to pay the extra money to get what hungary gets on its 2A7s
I love the leclercs so much
Holy moly, I'm early
Can't wait for the new F-16AM video as people haven't picked up on it yet
I feel like it’s better to take the mirage as it’s cheaper and has the best targeting pod in the game.

Hey Justin, can you do now a video combine of the merkava mk4 and barak ii please?
How did you get he GBU to lock to the target? Have been having issues with mine
Is there a possibility to the next combo wombo be the t-80bwm w/ su25-sm3/t or mig 27?
The issue with MAW is it dumps ALL the CM's...

Play Russia/USSR, they are the most forgiving

I hate cas.. look at this. 10-8km away and you can't even do crap. It's ruining the fun.
