Awsome tank. The dpm is low but 122tm is a universal tool. It works when its bottom tier it works in open maps it works in city. It plays on medium line or can work as a heavy. It can snipe like td. A well rounded tank. Perfect for recovering from chieftain session.
the dpm makes the tank unplayable for me. Everything else is good about the tank but only works when games are slow which isnt much of a case in wot nowadays. It has a hard time pushing flanks bcuz of the dpm and when games are 15-3 has a hard time in getting dmg
I see this tank differently, It’s a tier 10 medium tank with a broken ammo rack and engine at tier 8, giving it fair fighting chance against higher tiers but frustrating for farming lower tiers
Hey ... nice to have Skill back in good mood. 122TM is kind of a "perfect" tank ... well DPM isn't that good but it is balanced and the "not the best mobility" supports the play style of it: stay out of troubles, don't go one on one and support your friends - not necessarily from the red line. You will need your friends to cover for your reload. With the low DPM you can block the enemy as long they sh** their pants and none is willing to take a shot. If one decides to take it ... good bye. Never the less I love to play with it. When you shoot, you hit, And when you hit you hit hard. No need for gold and if you think you want to use gold even tier 10 heavies need to think twice.
"We need to have players here and here and here and we need snipers here" is a game mantra of most players that notice there are NO teams and it's you against 29.
It's pretty sad how unbalanced games are these days. I blame this on the abyss between good players and bad players. Not to mention the tourists... You have players that knows the good positions and knows how to use his tank properly like that Su130PM that ambushed skill. Meanwhile you have player like the kv5 who rushes and dies doing 2 shots of damage. Its hard to win when 5 to 8 players on your team cant even do half their HP in damage or any damage at all. Its a massive skill issue.
If only the MM was capable of creating equal teams, in many cases it doesn't even create equal teams in terms of the tanks used. Recently i have played 2 battles against 2 chiefs with only tech tree tanks on my side and only OP premiums and reward tanks on the enemies side.
@vampirecount3880 i am getting more and more frustrated in the last month with all these quickplay games or all these red bot players. Doesn't matter what tier you play, they are just everywhere destroying the games and taking out the fun because there is just no chance for teamplay or strategy play. And when you talk to them in chat and ask for help they get mad, call you a noob, moron or whatever and next thing is you get a chatban. This is a fuckn joke. Yesterday i had an Obj 705A in a full tier X game and this guy was camping in last row. Team asked for help i pinged him and told him to move: he called me noob idiot, moron, i should stfu and uninstall the game because i have no idea how to play. In the end we won the game, i had about 3.6k dmg and the 705A with 0 dmg and got killed. So wtf is wrong with this game or lets say the players? When they play sooo bad they should not be allowed to play higher than tier 6 or the MM has to make their own "Noob" or "skill issues" battles. Easy and all will be happy.

One super turbo big thumbs up! I totally agree@@softeisverbieger1769
I love seeing the games where Skill struggles, whether it’s matchmaking or his play. Because I partially watch skill to know how to react - I love his attitude. (Let’s pretend there were no chieftain streams ;) I must avoid that in myself even when it is hard…)
One of the few tanks I dont bother using a rammer on. The DPM is so low, I'd rather maximize my accuracy and make every shot count rather than throw as much shit at the wall I can. It just cant do that. Vents, Aiming, VStabs for city maps. Vents, Aiming, Optics for open maps.
I really enjoyed this tank when I still played the game. It's a reliable platform but the dpm and meh view range hold it back from being more than "good". Still fun to play as a second line support/sniper though, because that gun is so satisfying when it hits
Maybe because it's just 400 alpha. If it had 420-440 it would be close to tanks like the Chimera in terms of DPM. With the Iron Arnie playing similarly as this tank the 122TM kind of falls a bit behind but it's still very decent. The HEAT ammunition butchers the STRVs, which is great to compensate for the 120mm gun
i kinda like this tank when im not feeling agressive.. nice gun, good pen, and armor to bounch.. can really snipe weakspots.. but you have to play with others on the team. you dont go solo on 1 flank.. you will get overrun after 1 shot.
I run all my tanks without food. The biggest issue is with viewrange in 122TM. I'm forced to mount optics to touch 445m VR. Other than that I run rammer & v.stabs. Works well but I do miss the IAD on this
I had it as rental for a while and I quite liked it, but I suppose the Guard is better in almost everything except armor. But armor means little, because unless its really reliable, most people press 2 and blow you away. Guard is quicker, has similarly accurate gun and better dpm. 122 has a strong turret, while its hull can be penned by gold of even some T6 tanks. So you give up all benefits of Guard, mainly for a just a strong turret, which is without much gundepression, quite useless. 122TM has 8° gundepression, which isnt bad, but not enough for this centrally placed turret to fight on ridge lines.
Worst of Tanks has terrible match making in random battles. The bad match making program keeps a lot of players away from this game. No one likes losing constantly because the match maker can't create skill balanced games.
My most played tank (800+ battles, 2,4k average), the gun accuracy is great, I'm also using turbo to compensate a bit for the mobility. But I still think the 420 alpha or so would be better on this tank, in the current state I would say it's pretty much balanced armor/speed, but with bad DPM and I'm not sure if the accuracy itself is enough.
@@vampirecount3880 Bounty ventilation + bounty rammer + bounty turbo, everything from Battlepass :D I used to play with stabiliser, but gunhandling is okay without it and the turbo just helps a lot with poor mobility.
last time I was like . . . "you have unreal ammount of luck with your tourist mm, every game you have a free farm and 10 min games" . . . i think i jinxed it for you . . . sorry, i will fix it . . . ehm: what a terrible luck you have, it's so sad, your team is melting like a chocolate in a pocket on a sunny days, truly outrageous. . .
Chief aint no joke when it comes to marks of excellence. Best i was able to do was 70% and it ruined the game for me. Havent played in a couple of months and still dont feel like playing.
the gun isnt bad or anywhere close of being bad. The thing is, since the DPM is so damn low when you miss it hurts far more to your performance than most guns do. So you hate missing more than other guns making you feel its less accurate when it isnt. It just have abusmal DPM.
Chinese RNG, all the Chinese line gets it. xD Just like arty, you can have a fully aimed shot go high and miss or low into the thickest part of the tank. And just the same, there are times you can snap shot on the move like old school Chaffee. I will say that the 122 tm seems, to me at least, to be a VERY well behaved Chinese gun. But it still trolls me.
hahahaah, eahh.. i saw this "positivity" and how u react.. but i saw your video after and im glad that u just simply sorry for ur behavie. it was needed. bless you! =)
I'm an average player at best and made Major with this and a charioteer in Frontline. It plays more like a hybrid medium / td. The speed is the biggest factor to repositioning, if getting pushed.

Difficult games, but nice support from the Phase 1 in the last one. Lovely baboons, helping Skill to keep positive :)

Agreed on all except gold, frontside of tier x heavies you need. Otherwise all gucci because sniping weakspots
Maybe the key to all Chinese guns having poor accuracy is to strap two sleeping bags to the gun barrel
😂
sometimes it feels like people just driving in sniper mode and looking for target, no map awareness.

Phase 1 did a great job helping Skiiiil
Reload time is so bad that getting into CQB is suicidal.
I always liked this tank other than the horrific reload.
the sole reason I dont play it like if it was a bit faster reload it would still be balanced but more relevant
that tank is hard to play in CQB if Team mate making a rush.
I really enjoyed this tank when I still played the game. It's a reliable platform but the dpm and meh view range hold it back from being more than "good". Still fun to play as a second line support/sniper though, because that gun is so satisfying when it hits
Such a great tank :) How is ammunition rating 3/5? The apcr is tier 9 worthy and you get 300 HEAT pen.. on a tier 8 medium.
Maybe because it's just 400 alpha. If it had 420-440 it would be close to tanks like the Chimera in terms of DPM. With the Iron Arnie playing similarly as this tank the 122TM kind of falls a bit behind but it's still very decent. The HEAT ammunition butchers the STRVs, which is great to compensate for the 120mm gun
The more stars mean how much u need to use gold ammo if i recall correctly. So actually the less the better standart ammo
I thing that t34 should be buffed to similar play style as 122TM . . . just increase its gun accuracy while dpm, aim time are kako
i kinda like this tank when im not feeling agressive.. nice gun, good pen, and armor to bounch.. can really snipe weakspots.. but you have to play with others on the team. you dont go solo on 1 flank.. you will get overrun after 1 shot.
It's basically a tier 10 medium with broken engine and ammorack.
you dont go alone on a flank in any tank
Armor is not that good but gun is excellent
@@djuraster u know what i mean.. it dont brawl. and cant hold anything for itself.
Sounds like WZ-114! But wz has its own problems as well, hah.
I run all my tanks without food. The biggest issue is with viewrange in 122TM. I'm forced to mount optics to touch 445m VR. Other than that I run rammer & v.stabs.

Terrible DPM, but it connect almost every shot. DPM counts only if you hit you shot.
is any one els getting a error trying to launch the game after the new update ?
For me very nice tank to play. DPM not good but rest makes this tank works.
And 67% winrate on this tank I have.
Hey Skill! Watching you play is a pleasure. Is experimental equipment dead?
Glad I quit WOT long time ago. Now I just watch skill
With a gun this epic i just do not mind the dpm at all.
obj 274a or this tank? its on trade in now hmmm

what´s the equivalent on the regular tech tree for the TM 122?
none, its a unic tank
if not DPM of 122TM this would be my one of the favourite tanks
I hope to get the tank in a few years in bond store
Of all the nations, none have such special guns as the chinese tech tree.
Aim for 3 seconds, miss by a whole Maus.
3min games are always amazing. Thx Wg... 😎
typical unbalanced broken tank
Arent we going to talk about in 1:25 he basically takes down an arty that had just reached his position?🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's a fun tank, too bad chinese mediums are awful so I got no incentive to get it past the prime 10 days rental
Found my love for this tank during frontline recently, before I didn't mess with it at all.
3 minute battles is one of the things I don't like about this game

you're welcome, tomorrow I expect at least two colobanovs 😂
0:00 Good Day Sir, hope you had a wonderful day after the breakup of shittain and you have a blessed again :)
Imo the best chinese Premium
I played this tank in Frontlines and with the crazy mechanics sometimes you could get double air strikes. 10-15k was easily achievable.
Chief aint no joke when it comes to marks of excellence. Best i was able to do was 70% and it ruined the game for me. Havent played in a couple of months and still dont feel like playing.
I love this tank, i got my dmg record of 6,8k in this tank last month yahoo :)
Me 4890 😅
Voun tu tu ti em - skiel language
next video hwk30?
I hatte the gun, it Trolls so Hard
i have same feeling. Most of the games gun is just derpy. Soft stats are pretty bad for such low DPM.
the gun isnt bad or anywhere close of being bad. The thing is, since the DPM is so damn low when you miss it hurts far more to your performance than most guns do. So you hate missing more than other guns making you feel its less accurate when it isnt. It just have abusmal DPM.
@@vampirecount3880 0.2/0.2/0.15 are pretty bad and because of that you need vstab. With this tank you can't afford to miss

It's on sale for like 8.75k gold right now till Dec 8th. I got this much gold with just 2x12 winter boxes
Need more chieftain 😅
um abraço do Brasil, curto muito seus videos
Hi Skill what time You usually play ? Never met You 😜
this tank is actually garbage. 400 alpha every 15+ secs is negligible at most or kinda laughable at least
hahahaah, eahh.. i saw this "positivity" and how u react.. but i saw your video after and im glad that u just simply sorry for ur behavie. it was needed. bless you! =)
Can I get a "Stay positive" in comment section? 🤣
1 shot and eat sandwich, and slow dude
just stey positive :)
FIrst :D

Good to know we can count on you skill, 122tm is not anymore in the shop, thx for being late
122TM > BZ-176
Its a Aweful tank cmon skill who paid you to promote this. You can play the worst tanks well but 3 cherry picked games.. hmm no...
I'm an average player at best and made Major with this and a charioteer in Frontline. It plays more like a hybrid medium / td. The speed is the biggest factor to repositioning, if getting pushed.
