grinding through the keys was extremely boring after a while, non of the gamemodes was interesting enough to actually make playing them 20-40 times feels somewhat fun. The last stand mode should include more waves and maybe alternating enemies so its not that predictable. Still better to grind then to buy keys tho, with 80x50gold =4k Gold just to skip the last stage is incredible expensive
Either I got lucky or it isnt that hard at all, I beat it after only a few tries with randoms... The last stand gamemode on the other hand I found much much harder to beat, so that I didnt even bother to try finishing it. Grinding the normal mode gave me guaranteed 8 or 9 keys every round (incl.. daily mission), so that was my way to grind out the Nergal.
@@Jonas-sg9uq exactly like me. But with the discord guys we where been farming hard mode vor around 10 and needed the same time as normal with randoms who often just spawn more and more camps for no benefit
Indeed. Had a nightmare mode going, me including 2 did fine, others just..crap. the game after, we 3 randoms made a group and got 2 other random who were good. Farmed nightmare 3 times and that's how we got it. Lucky? Yes. But good random that had brains at least.
I genuinely love the nergal. Still learning the intricacies of it, but its a ton of fun. Not saying its the best tank, but with a working on 6th perk crew, i love it😊
@@Th3hun13r Im guessing that's because of normalization? you could argue high pen AP rounds are better than HEAT because of normalization. ie a 330 AP would easily penetrate say an obj 279 e upper plate but a 330 HEAT wouldnt be as consistent. APCR also has normalization but not as much as AP
I was lucky and did Nightmare so got the tanks for free. It not a bad tank, there's a deal where you can get 100 keys, some gold and 7 days premium for just under £9. I'd say its worth that easy, so if your close to getting it £9 is worth it.
I got this tank just a few days after the event start, and it's really fun baiting people to shoot it on the track but now a lot of player already know how to deal with this tank, so it's kinda hard to play when you got into a bad matchup
They quickly nerfed the key earnings after the first half of the event. It takes a lot longer to earn it now. 7 keys per battle is the norm now. They stealth nerfed the key earnings.
I got this tank on the very first day. Perhaps due to the 17 keys boost. I think I got it in less than 10 hours. I very much liked the Last Stand game mode! And the fact that I could get at least 100k credits from every battle. Not as much as from randoms but better than what you get from Steel Hunter
If youre a heavy enjoyer youll love this tank as it adds a newer style of play in a really strong platform. Pros: - solid gun - solid dpm - solid turret - good hull armor - great gun depression - very nice track system Cons: - very slow - weak lower plate
I like nergal, I'm not a great player, but it was nice playing the mode with people on QB's discord server. And the armor feels like you can make it work.
it very likely depended on which time you played. at the start of event you had higher chance of getting good teammates. in later part of season all the good players stop playing cuz they already have the tank so all you get are bad teammates. and for me i did get better teams during 4am my time. worst teams were around evening when servers were packed. this is all about playing with randoms.
@@matufujiwara7493 i just grinded easy mode, i did beat all difficulties but thats just luck. they nerfed the survival mode into the ground before i got a chance to grind it like that.
I'm not a great player, not ashamed to say that either, however, that being said, I'm getting some of the best results I've ever had since starting WoT 18months ago, and it's only getting better improvement wise the more I play it. The +2 lobbies are rough, and prone to being farmed, the +1 lobbies however are simply gold required with most of the opponents, and other than that it's right as rain as if it were a straight 8's or -2 -1 lobby. Best free tank I've grabbed up yet. I agree with you in hoping that they expand on last stand mode as far as increasing the waves past 5. Thanks for another smash up job on the Vid! Have a great weekend Young Man, best to you and yours ....
It’s nice that you had such great experience with the last Stand game mode. My was the opposite. Not playing with a team and it was very rough. Getting sometimes just 2-4 keys after 15 min. Had better experience with madness level. Played this mode quite long and still was missing 70 keys. It’s again one of this bait events
I have 76% winratio on it. No bond equipment, no gold fired. I love it, in tier 8 battles i kinda get around 4k dmg dealt with may max being 6k. It s my playstyle tank, at least until people learn how to deal with it.
Yes, the Babylon event was really good - high adrenaline and good reward tank without having to spend a ridiculous amount of time to grind it. I didn't finish the Nightmare level, but devoted several hours over 3 days to grind through the keys on Normal mode, as on Hard or Last Stand I found I couldn't rely on a win, so sometimes you would get very few keys to show for it.
Grind in random que was frustrating. But... Those 3-4 games, when you meet up with a perfect team. And plow trough last stand and nightmare mode... Worth it
I really liked the event with how easy it was to get this tank. Also, a big tank you to QB for carrying me through the 10 minute mark to cross the 5 % hurdle in order to get juicy rewards in Last Stand
Good on you offering your discord server to help find solid groups. I'm guessing that's the only sensible way to get through last stand and nightmare more with any reasonable chance of success.
All i did to get the Nergal was play easy mode 1 time in each tank per day. Id usually come in first cause on average i got 25-30k damage. That was worth 9 keys per tank per day. I finished all stages except the last one, i had to use 160 keys to decrypt that one cause i just couldnt get a team to complete it
i nearly got the Nergal for free, but towards the end I just couldnt force myself to grind for it anymore. I ended up spending approx. 1,000 gold to finish up the final stage
I downloaded WOT as a new player about 3 weeks ago and played through the event without cashing in. That was easily 200-300 games with randoms.... But I'm glad to have saved about 14k gold and to have improved my skills. I think best start as a newbie
For me as an average player I have grinded it in standard mode after I finished hard and nightmare at least once but managed get the marathon done half way in the first day before WG nerfed the income. It is easier for average non unicum, player to complete it in standard mode than doing it in last stand because you can win more consistently.
I ground it out for free in the hardest way: being a mediocre ftp player doing 100% random teams. Still managed to finish it with a couple days to spare. Playing in this manner, I earned about the same number of keys per hour in Nightmare mode as in Last Stand. But since completing Nightmare milestones halved the number of keys to progress the chapters, it was worthwhile to keep doing it until I lucked out to get a team that beat it. Didn't even take as many attempts as I feared it would. The only problem is that, because the mode reassigns your ammo and consumable hotkeys by default, my reflexes are now messed up for randoms, and I have to re-acclimate.
The new level cap is 80 and it was 70 for Dragonflight expansion. The Nergel is fun to play but it seems to me as a tank to bring out when having a few bad games to just vent with, i got it after the change to the game mode due to life things but happy i managed to get a tank offered for free during the event.
Personally, i was able to get all modes alart from nighmare done. Wasnt massivly fussed about it as the 160 grind for the skip wasnt too bad either, just did my dailies
It feels alot like the tog. Slow long pretty good dpm, but eaten alive as soon as some one know what they are doing. You meet something like ka-ri and it will pen you pretty much everywhere. Did not even clear hard mode. Just played last stand and got it in 30h. Suprisingly often cleared all 5 waves.
Using random queue I was only able to complete last stand once, and after they nerfed the reward it wasn't worth it anymore. And I don't know if they made the regular game mode harder or not, but the first few days I rarely got tracked or caught on fire, but towards the end I would continuously get tracked or set on fire on consecutive shots.
It'd be nice if next time Last Stand came out, they maybe made it a bit more balanced for tech tree tanks. It's fine that the Turtle and the Grom and the TS-5 are the best, but I'd like being able to have a bit more choice. Make it a proper Nazi Zombies parallel, spread it out to 10 waves or something.
I got it for free, and it took me 16 hours to do so. This grind broke me. WG needs to make the grind 50% easier than it was at stages 13 to 15. I solo all theses stages...
I could never find a way to make it through round 5 on the last stand to skip that one. One miracle random group I found myself in got nightmare done easier than some normal games. The teams towards the end got pretty bad once the people who had a clue were finished.
I played like 10 hours maybe in total, haven't paid a dime for it. Only once did a nightmare difficulty, then was grinding on levels normal & hard, few games each available tank per day. Wasn't playing that 2nd mode part of the event, with regular tanks because it wasn't bringing any XP to those tanks in that mode.
Once they nerfed last stand I gave up on it and stuck to normal mode, just went with doing dailies then collecting 160 keys in a couple of days to skip final phase.
It was super easy to get, 100% solo, got every step done except the last one and didn't even play every day or play that much except for on the 19th where I played for about 3 hours. I wasn't even going to bother with it since I usually hate these PvE events and had zero interest in the tank but I started off just trying to get the first BP reward then started flying through levels so fast I just kept going and finished on the 26th. Unless they had absolutely no time to play why anyone would outright buy this mediocre tank right off the bat is beyond me. Didn't even know you got two keys for each tank every day until I was almost done, would have been a lot faster if I had know since I mostly played the Grenadier which was the only fun one.
I got to Stage 14/15, unfortunately Life's extremely in the way so can only play so much. Also, trying to find a GOOD team to get thru the harder levels is a challenge. I was surprised overall that most folks knew how to play i.e. pinged spots, worked together to get thru the levels. I did debate whether to drop some coin to get to the end.... I did get the Marshal pkg to skip the rest. In the end I looked at it as I got a bunch for resources from the event, which probably cost more outside in the Prem Store etc. Any change I have left will go for some Xmas boxes.
I came during this game mode because it was pretty fun and wanted to see what the state of the game is like and then they quietly nerfed the event. Which completely discouraged me from playing anymore because it just reinforced why i had stopped playing before. I haven't played since that quiet patch as I really detest that kind of behavior. All it ended up doing is reinforced the opinions of those that put the game away instead of bringing back players. I think more would have come back if not for that nerf.
Not enough friends on the old NA server so I ran Hard mode since I'm skilled enough to carry that at least lol Nergal is in my garage and it's pretty troll. I don't mind it.
If they gave it appropriate HP for it's size and speed (1600+) and 20m extra view range, I think it would be a cool tank to play from time to time, but it's just so bad in so many areas since the nerfs.
Skoda has +1.28 winrate diff and is clearly op. The Nergal has +0.11 winrate diff it's perfectly balanced. The tank already has very strong armour, what do you want another BZ176? Like jesus christ I really think some people only like op tanks and don't care about game balance.
I like the Nergal. It's pretty trolly at T8. But T9 and T10, ehhhhh.... it suffers a bit. MM should be +-1 max. I'll take longer queue to play a match that I'm not getting seal clubbed. That said, it's a great T8 corner troll tank. It's nice to have a tank I can stick my nose around corners instead of having to side-scrape all the time.
Haven't played at all. Been sick. I need to do the first 5 missions first yes? And then skip afterwards. I have 250 keys. I can buy more. Can I do this today?
I made it to the 16th stage the "hard way" (no organized team of good players) but, after collecting 75 keys while being unable to complete stage 4 in nightmare difficulty; i decided to spend the $12 to get the 100 keys. This is the only purchase I have made in WoT in over a year so it was an acceptable cost to not completely waste my hours of playing to get the Nergal.
I got very lucky doing Nightmare day 2 with no organised team, I think the way to do it was in the first couple of days before all the best players had moved on to grinding normal/last stand.
I probably only beat wave 5 out of 20% of games I played with random teams, and I was always top dmg (used the wz-120-1GFT) i watched so many charioteers die in that mode...
It's fine for f2p players who want to grind credits, but you will get matched against people with actually good premiums like the Skoda T56 and BZ-176. It's really not competitive.
QB, i can't say tgat that was that easy without a proper team! Once we gathered a platoon, it was quite easy i admitt but unless you have a ready platoon with brain.....
I have won ewent on both scenarios, but the amount of the key is so ridiculous i rather buy the left 270 keys then play this mode for longer another 5 days!!!
what you say is true, but not everyone is a good player and doesn't have the opportunity to create a team with someone who is able to do it so quickly. Mostly it depends on random noobs. Also, not everyone has the opportunity to devote more time to it than 1-3 hours a day.
did play the last stand 4-5 times. not interested in finding a platoon, but with randoms, i'd say, getting the 4th stage done, was good enough:) nightmare is luckily easy enough to do with a random team. ended up just playing each of the tanks once a day in normal difficulty, so gathering like 50-52 keys per day. was rather fast like that also. but for me the gameplay is just soooo boring, that that was just a pure grind i did every evening ( an hour or something like that). got the tank 6 day ago. did not play a single game after that in that mode:)
I couldn't be bothered to tryhard finishing Nightmare, or play Last Stand beyond finishing wave 5 once, and I've found this game mode boring as hell after few days, at least with Gtom I tried to do missins for a challenge, and there was no challenge here, just pure, mindless grind. Still, I admit that it is a tier 8 Prem for not much effort required, which is always welcome.
True. Is terrible that a company justifies a bad product just because is cheap. They are just continuously expanding the "just get and sit in my garage with no use for ever" tank category.
@@MAD0GOk....so wg should constantly release good tanks like the grom? Since a solid tank is a "bad product" to u lol. So what happens when ALL the tanks are good tanks? Will there actually be any good tanks by then? Such flawed logic
I completed half the stages (working doubles) with what free time I have. Figured I would buy out the last bit today, the last day. BUT it's gone? Why is it not available anymore? Am I not looking in the right place? Thanks if anyone can offer help.
The Halloween mode was mind numbing after about 3 battles and it needed a WHOLE LOT MORE THAN THAT to grind. Most teams were auto-lose morons and the tanks not worth that suffering. End of.
Go the tank yesterday. after the painful grinding. got into bad match up on the first game. managed to do plenty of damage since the track really help soak the damage. not too good and not too bad. Obsidian is better than this tank tbh. Uninstalled the game after that. lmao.
I am a casual, I have never finished an alternative game mode because they are not fun. This one, after 5 games, is not either. Your discord made it somewhat bearable. I came back to the game a month ago, and it tempered my enthusiasm in the game, by playing 3/4 games some nights of the week to an unfun thing. I lack 80 keys and I go out tonight. Will probably not get it
This tank has Chrysler K syndrome. Very good in a tier 8 matchup and below but as soon as you meet tier 10 tanks you will get eaten alive.
yeah and the weak ammo doesnt help its case either
A balanced premium, shocking these days. Need more bz or sodas with tier 10 guns at t8
Shtpk heat shreds it, so it isnt even chrysler level armor back in the day
Even tier 9 with gold ammo
It is better than crysler in gun
grinding through the keys was extremely boring after a while, non of the gamemodes was interesting enough to actually make playing them 20-40 times feels somewhat fun. The last stand mode should include more waves and maybe alternating enemies so its not that predictable. Still better to grind then to buy keys tho, with 80x50gold =4k Gold just to skip the last stage is incredible expensive
The nightmare difficulty is only nightmare if you play it with full randoms!💀
I cleared it with a full random team and all medium tanks and lights 😂 I didn't even believe it when it was over. Super lucky that day.
yes ! had a lot of fun with players on his DC tho. But with Randoms I often culn´d even complete hard because of them dying all the time.
Either I got lucky or it isnt that hard at all, I beat it after only a few tries with randoms...

It is an actual decent tank. But the grind is a nightmare and I am not talking just about the difficulty level.
No mate. Like QB said, it's one of the easiest grinds for ages. I got it about 5 days ago.
got it for 2 days my friend got it less just half day i dont know why how he got it fast
i got the nergal in 2 days with the grenedier on normal
these guys below are Blow Hards. MOST WOT players are lone wolfs and this grind was terrible.
if you didnt mind the players who cant even play on normal it wasnt that bad.I finished it solo and I cant say it didnt turn my hair white a little :>
I genuinely love the nergal. Still learning the intricacies of it, but its a ton of fun. Not saying its the best tank, but with a working on 6th perk crew, i love it😊
Same, something I found is the tank is incredibly weak to ACPR
@@Th3hun13r Im guessing that's because of normalization?
you could argue high pen AP rounds are better than HEAT because of normalization. ie a 330 AP would easily penetrate say an obj 279 e upper plate but a 330 HEAT wouldnt be as consistent. APCR also has normalization but not as much as AP

Agreed. The £9 saved me having to grind any more of the game modes. Not as fun this year
14:00 "When something is too quick it's unsatisfying"
That's what she said.
haha yes i use a experemental turbo on it

I'm so confused, with the people I've been matched with in the event, my estimater is it would take weeks to get.
4-5 days
i got it on the 4th day...thanks to my unicum clanmates.
This grind is just easy and fun, get it in just 4 days in the beginning, platoon in QB DIscord.

It’s nice that you had such great experience with the last Stand game mode. My was the opposite. Not playing with a team and it was very rough. Getting sometimes just 2-4 keys after 15 min.
Had better experience with madness level.
Played this mode quite long and still was missing 70 keys.
It’s again one of this bait events
6-10 hours... LMAO. Most people I talked with, including myself, too between 10-25 hours. Especially long without tooning.
Curiously QB originally estimated a much longer grind, but has since changed his mind at least a couple of times... video by video.
I just like the Nergal because it looks like a loafing cat with its paws out front.
I managed to get through the Nightmare mode complete. And got top of the team many times and it still took about 30-40 hours…..
I have 76% winratio on it. No bond equipment, no gold fired. I love it, in tier 8 battles i kinda get around 4k dmg dealt with may max being 6k. It s my playstyle tank, at least until people learn how to deal with it.

It was a painful grind.
I got it in less than a week ago with randoms only. Dpm is king and thankfully the ts-5 was perfect for the grind.
I downloaded WOT as a new player about 3 weeks ago and played through the event without cashing in. That was easily 200-300 games with randoms.... But I'm glad to have saved about 14k gold and to have improved my skills. I think best start as a newbie

mate, I've put a few solid days into this event and got to 15/16 but gave up because getting nightmare done with random people is impossible
Not everyone goes in discord and want teamates to form platoons,but everybody can play a missio marathon alone
I grinded this on normal difficulty without a premde group. That was the true nightmare mode.
I could never find a way to make it through round 5 on the last stand to skip that one. One miracle random group I found myself in got nightmare done easier than some normal games. The teams towards the end got pretty bad once the people who had a clue were finished.

I like my Nergal. It's just such a big, dumb heavy that it's almost cute.
the worse part for me was that I decrypted the last phase of nightmare and then managed to finish it with random team :>
Once they nerfed last stand I gave up on it and stuck to normal mode, just went with doing dailies then collecting 160 keys in a couple of days to skip final phase.

I was surprised overall that most folks knew how to play i.e. pinged spots, worked together to get thru the levels. I did debate whether to drop some coin to get to the end.... I did get the Marshal pkg to skip the rest. In the end I looked at it as I got a bunch for resources from the event, which probably cost more outside in the Prem Store etc. Any change I have left will go for some Xmas boxes.
I came during this game mode because it was pretty fun and wanted to see what the state of the game is like and then they quietly nerfed the event. Which completely discouraged me from playing anymore because it just reinforced why i had stopped playing before. I haven't played since that quiet patch as I really detest that kind of behavior. All it ended up doing is reinforced the opinions of those that put the game away instead of bringing back players. I think more would have come back if not for that nerf.
I really want a harder last stand mode where u can use ur tier 10 tanks
Not enough friends on the old NA server so I ran Hard mode since I'm skilled enough to carry that at least lol Nergal is in my garage and it's pretty troll. I don't mind it.
If they gave it appropriate HP for it's size and speed (1600+) and 20m extra view range, I think it would be a cool tank to play from time to time, but it's just so bad in so many areas since the nerfs.
no heavy tanks should not have good view range
1600hp and a bit of speed would make this thing veery strong, I'd be ok with that tho as it is obviously a tank more aimed at beginners
Skoda has +1.28 winrate diff and is clearly op. The Nergal has +0.11 winrate diff it's perfectly balanced.
The tank already has very strong armour, what do you want another BZ176? Like jesus christ I really think some people only like op tanks and don't care about game balance.
I like the Nergal. It's pretty trolly at T8. But T9 and T10, ehhhhh.... it suffers a bit.
MM should be +-1 max. I'll take longer queue to play a match that I'm not getting seal clubbed.
That said, it's a great T8 corner troll tank. It's nice to have a tank I can stick my nose around corners instead of having to side-scrape all the time.
Only the last 2 stages to go. Nothing to do anyways this evening 😂
Haven't played at all. Been sick. I need to do the first 5 missions first yes? And then skip afterwards. I have 250 keys. I can buy more. Can I do this today?
QB we aint gonna see the nurgal until next year
WG hold my beer
nurgal in holiday boxes
I competed it in 3 days!
I made it to the 16th stage the "hard way" (no organized team of good players) but, after collecting 75 keys while being unable to complete stage 4 in nightmare difficulty; i decided to spend the $12 to get the 100 keys. This is the only purchase I have made in WoT in over a year so it was an acceptable cost to not completely waste my hours of playing to get the Nergal.
I got very lucky doing Nightmare day 2 with no organised team, I think the way to do it was in the first couple of days before all the best players had moved on to grinding normal/last stand.
I probably only beat wave 5 out of 20% of games I played with random teams, and I was always top dmg (used the wz-120-1GFT) i watched so many charioteers die in that mode...
If you meet any tanks with pen of 260~270 and up, it's a cheeses. Not scared of seeing it on the battle.
But it’s qute toxic for most t8 or lower tanks that have 200-215 pen.
@@dmv4343 The hull is weak as hell, but fair enough, it does have only 2 small cupolas on the turret so...
Thank you quickie baby for another wonderful video, I hope you and your wife for doing well.
*are doing well
It's fine for f2p players who want to grind credits, but you will get matched against people with actually good premiums like the Skoda T56 and BZ-176. It's really not competitive.
I finished this and got the tank with total randoms and it was a pain specially the nightmare requirement
Sabogsabog means boomboom for those curious
QB, i can't say tgat that was that easy without a proper team! Once we gathered a platoon, it was quite easy i admitt but unless you have a ready platoon with brain.....
I just wish it didn't look so *disgusting*
I like the shape of it in a meme-y sort of way, but the skin is just abysmal
I have won ewent on both scenarios, but the amount of the key is so ridiculous i rather buy the left 270 keys then play this mode for longer another 5 days!!!
I can't find it anywhere in the store, where is it? Btw, i got it on the 4th day by completing all stages.
what you say is true, but not everyone is a good player and doesn't have the opportunity to create a team with someone who is able to do it so quickly. Mostly it depends on random noobs.
Also, not everyone has the opportunity to devote more time to it than 1-3 hours a day.
Yeah but you have to win battles on Nightmare mode which isn't easy!
did play the last stand 4-5 times. not interested in finding a platoon, but with randoms, i'd say, getting the 4th stage done, was good enough:) nightmare is luckily easy enough to do with a random team.
ended up just playing each of the tanks once a day in normal difficulty, so gathering like 50-52 keys per day. was rather fast like that also. but for me the gameplay is just soooo boring, that that was just a pure grind i did every evening ( an hour or something like that). got the tank 6 day ago. did not play a single game after that in that mode:)
I couldn't be bothered to tryhard finishing Nightmare, or play Last Stand beyond finishing wave 5 once, and I've found this game mode boring as hell after few days, at least with Gtom I tried to do missins for a challenge, and there was no challenge here, just pure, mindless grind. Still, I admit that it is a tier 8 Prem for not much effort required, which is always welcome.
Nah, bro, not my gameplay style. However, nice try by WG to get you to tell the players to shell out the money lol. But this tank is not worth it.
At 9:14 he says "it isn't a must have, not even close" but if you get it for free then by all means enjoy.
True. Is terrible that a company justifies a bad product just because is cheap. They are just continuously expanding the "just get and sit in my garage with no use for ever" tank category.
i must be watching a different vid that you - QB is not doing that at all.
You clearly don't know sh*t about QB if you think WG can get him to push their greedy agenda.
@@MAD0GOk....so wg should constantly release good tanks like the grom? Since a solid tank is a "bad product" to u lol. So what happens when ALL the tanks are good tanks? Will there actually be any good tanks by then? Such flawed logic
Nergal is a noob friendly tank, it simply lacks the statics (speed and DPM)to be a good tank in the hands of a good player.
I completed half the stages (working doubles) with what free time I have. Figured I would buy out the last bit today, the last day. BUT it's gone? Why is it not available anymore? Am I not looking in the right place? Thanks if anyone can offer help.
wonder when they add the h.i.s.s [high speed sentry] tank in to the game?
They Also nervend the lower stages. Not nice. I was happy that I try it on the start so I get a good amount early
The shadow nerf basically killed any interest i had in the event.
the premium ammo on this tank isn't great, goes through the most heavily armored part of a ferdinand
The Halloween mode was mind numbing after about 3 battles and it needed a WHOLE LOT MORE THAN THAT to grind. Most teams were auto-lose morons and the tanks not worth that suffering. End of.
They should give it a green stinky skin, it would please Nurgle
Still sad the Nergal doesn't have a Nurgle skin :
Just make missions with every tank on easy stage and kill boss and u have 50 keys but some people are to stupid for it
I skipped all stages 2 days before the mode finished just from playing the normal level.
Go the tank yesterday. after the painful grinding. got into bad match up on the first game. managed to do plenty of damage since the track really help soak the damage. not too good and not too bad. Obsidian is better than this tank tbh. Uninstalled the game after that. lmao.
I don't understand how they make the teams because everytime the balance between the teams doesn't exist
I am a casual, I have never finished an alternative game mode because they are not fun. This one, after 5 games, is not either. Your discord made it somewhat bearable. I came back to the game a month ago, and it tempered my enthusiasm in the game, by playing 3/4 games some nights of the week to an unfun thing. I lack 80 keys and I go out tonight. Will probably not get it
i got 3 keys in 5 hours thx wg again for letting all anaI bots in to the server every day
im lucky it got nerfed. It had very high dpm and more hp. i think considering it's free it is best that it is kinda nice but not overpowered
took me like 30 hours in all random games
This was a bit too hard for noobs like me to complete. Only got like 0-2 keys per battle in last stand.
haha cobra commander commander:)
