@@Acetilcystein Hull down is basically playing on a ridge/hill with a tank that has good gun depression, a strong/unpennable turret and a bouncy upper plate. It means that you can peak to your hearts content against other players and they cannot do anything against you if they don't somehow flank or have an arty in the team.
well you guys keep approving map changes that adds spots for all the hull down tanks while removing soft cover . Yes this a fact even skill said and so did orza . All the map changes buff op tanks and help them play easier while nerfing all the paper tank spots . Funny how that is ok maybe tell wargaming to stop making it easier for op hull down tanks to do even more on the maps . But again will your agro plays or the game balance come first ?? Bc right now this is the logic all the maps changes help all the op tanks and nerf all the spots for all the other tanks in the game yea what kind of logic is that .
I miss the old days where 1. Tech tree tanks vs Tech tree tanks 2. Old HE mechanic where you can do damage with just a splash on the ground 3. No broken OP Premium tanks ruin the game 4. Derp KV-13, T-43, T20, Panther, M46 Patton, because the funny Nowadays is all Premium tanks flooded the match maker making the F2P grind worth meaningless ....
Being able to overmatch your enemy's armor with HE is what made tanks like the KV-2 and the japanese superheavies fun. Obliterating someone for 700 when they least expected it was always fun and it didn't always happen but enough to make them viable to do lots of damage atleast.
@@Fenryr7 lmao the problem was the fact that the non-pen HE scaled so much with the alpha of the gun to the point where 60tp were doing a minimum of 350 against the most armored plates in the game... not the fact that HE did SOME damage... it was purely unskilled ammo type in most of the cases
The Iron Arnie is much less talked about because of the new features and abilities the BZ-176 has, but it is by no mean an inferior tank. Putting a tier 9 medium tank at tier 8 with add on armor in exchange for mobility and some offense stats, really just spills trouble. It never should have been in tier 8 in the first place since it already has the Super Pershing at it’s tier.
Yeah, it doesn't even feel bad to play when you get T10 games. Hell, I'm happy to see a tier 10 heavy bouncing or sizzling heat off the spaced armor to rack up steel walls lol.
@@KawaiiFemBoi Dispersion while moving is really good though. And you can get the accuracy pretty good with an aiming device, and the armor lets you spend the long time to aim. The insane HEAT pen pushes it over the top compared to the Patriot imo.
It has great armor but it also has weakspots it can't hide most of the time. It's definitely a tier too low but the tank doesn't feel cancerous for the game.
It's just trash like I worked hard for my heavy tanks with double barrels and super armor yet these premium garbage are literally in every match and BZ 176 is like an ISU 152 with IS-4 armor
M47 Improved (aka. Iron Arnie) is supposed to be using the same M68 105mm gun as the M48A5 - which is again supposed to be the same gun as on the Leo1 and Cent 7 among others. I honestly and unironically believe the Iron Arnie should have been a tier 10, just with an un-nerfed M68 gun. Same is true for the AMBT (supposed to be a replacement for the M60). It's a pretty sad trend from WG. Tanks that easily could have been fairly balanced at tier 10 are thrown into the game at tier 8 just with a nerfed gun and poor soft stats. Would it actually be better if they started selling tier 10 premiums though?
I uninstalled about two months ago. Almost re-downloaded for the Christmas event but my will power thankfully stood up like a Chieftain turret. I still watch kajzoo vids just to keep up on the WG insanity.
Stay strong my man. This game is trash. I still play occasionally. Only light tanks and my Isu152. :😜 So many op premium tanks each week New ones to make the game even more 15:0. And imbalanced.
I did something similar. I think I quit about two years ago, almost turned back a couple times, but this game is going down the drain. That is an MBT that they are matching against t-34-85s. An MBT that has mountable COMPOSITE ARMOR. The kind of pen you'd need to get through that could only be found in the largest of HEAT shells, or HEAT-FS or APDS. They put a post-60s MBT fighting WW2 tanks. There's no way to balance that.
How can you play this awful amateur bullshit game anyway, war thunder is much much better and lot more realistic too, well I guess It's not hard to be more realistic than wot. It's ridicolous to me this is not how tanks act irl.

They need to stop the aggressive plays with map changes and they doing the opposite . Then nerf tanks that need it . Ill take nerfs to my premiums for the sake of the game but i know without a Miracle it wont happen .

I'm a very average player - my games IMMEDIATELY started getting better when I got the Iron Arnie. It's insane how much your damage per game spikes when you play it vs. what I've spent a lot of time playing (tier 8 tech tree French heavies). I'm hopeful they buff more tech tree tanks next year like they seem to be planning on it. I don't actually mind having really powerful tanks in the game, what I mind is that they show up against things like the AMX65t or stock ISMs that basically just don't get to play the game.
@@kevingallineauii9353 Power creep in the form of something like accuracy isn't bad, though. Is the game more fun if it's lower power, but that lower power means losing half your games to RNG dispersion rather than bad plays or good plays by your enemy? Power creep is only inherently bad if it's things like a card game, where you MUST buy the new product or be left in the dust. WOT being a video game can update those old tanks to catch players up without harming the game. I'm not suggesting they buff tanks by just doing something lazy like making armor and pen values go up or removing weak spots (though they might well do that).
@@kevingallineauii9353 Of course, the biggest issue with power creep is outdated map design. Tanks like the BZ176 that can just get to ridgeline hulldown peeking positions years before any other heavies can isn't necessarily a problem of the rocket mechanic being busted, but is a problem of maps only having one or two viable spots for heavies to go. If there were multiple viable spots for heavies to go, and the BZ player chooses to get to the wrong one, but fast, now they've spent a limited resource to do next to nothing.
As people who do this in 6 years: - never load gold ammo - never have prem vehicle (except bonds tank) - never spend premium account (usually wg give it lol) I'll prefer suffer rather than spend thing on this game. Iron arnie basically slaps anything super pershing have back then. And it makes big suffer for people who played tier 7 and below. I'm agree with the last part with you Lots t8 stock now just suffer pain to play because more and more premium tank on the tree. They should buff them
@@rizkidary837 no. No more power creep tanks. WG needs to stop releasing P2W tanks and rather buff them after release IF the tank needs a buff. They have made it policy to never nerf a premium tank so that is the ONLY alternative to more power creep. Power creep resulted in the HE changes, gold spam and 1000+ hp tier 6 heavy tanks. It HAS GOT TO stop!
Arnie and BZ are basically tier 10 tanks with tier 8 matchmaking. But whats even worse, they are both only playable with GOLD shells, because these days you arent even allowed to earn credits with your gold tank. You are meant to spend it all on the ammunition and buy credits for gold. Although everything could have been OK if Arnie had 235 standard pen and 260 gold pen, and BZ with AP 220mm pen and the same or even LESS pen with the HESH.
I have noticed a massive problem in wargaming's monetization. They promised us to never release tier 9 or 10 premiums, and that looks nice if you dont think about it. But if you do, you will realize that they will just release premiums with the power of tier 9 and 10 tanks into tier 8 since they are not allowed to put them in the tier they would fit in. This results in tier 10 tanks getting put into tier 8, and they have a chance to fight tier 6. So they just keep adding better premiums but they keep having to put it into tier 8, so we end up with tanks like the Bz-176 and iron arnie. So tier 6 tanks basically have -2/+4 matchmaking.
I didn't play the game for about a year, and came back to the bz-176 and iron Arnie, wondering how they every thought they would be good additions. So many of the games I've been in could easily be won by people playing a bit more aggressively, but everyone just wants to sit on a ridge or behind a hill until god gives them a perfect opportunity, or until they see someone on somewhat low health to yolo push
Great vid with a lot of crazy gameplay Kajzoo. I think that WG missed a golden opportunity to make this thing a tier 9 premium, all the would need is to give it corresponding HP and and a 360 alpha gun. While this thing is strong, I don't think that it is nearly as imbalanced as the BZ, which if you get bored while streaming, I can see you making a crazy compilation vid of it like you did with the Cobra.
i loved this video, one of my favorite from yours, can you do videos showcasing a tech tree line's tier 8-10 tanks in 1 vid? By that i mean is you showcase like the t32, m103 and t110e5 in 1 video and do your usual ''these tanks are op as hell and underrated'' on it. I hope you understand, cuz i suck at explaining lol
an extreme case of power creep (and "feature creep"), unforunately inevitable for a 12 year of FTP game. props to WG for even keeping the game alive this long.
WG sure had the greatest idea of all times introducing this monstrosity in the game, however, it's overshadowed by the other monstrosity, the BZ-176, but arguably this thing completely makes those who own the Superpershing look like idiots and let's better not compare it with the Pershing, which is the tech tree version. It's the M47, in case someone doesn't know, basically the tier 9 with a little bit less speed and alpha but with the turret of the Super Conqueror. Don't worry though, WG gave it a little cupola easy to hit especially if the driver is moving left and right and backwards and forwards 🤷♂️🤣
WG: Yes, we totally did just add a tank with composite armor to the game. In reality, the armor on this is based on an armor package for the M48 Super, a German design to upgrade the M48. It also had a thermal sight. This isn't the only tank in the game with composite armor on it tho, the premium tier 8 and tech tree tier 9 and 10 have something clearly based on the Russian BDD applique composite armor found on modernized T-55s and T-62s. I find it funny how WG handles APDS and APFSDS in game too. They are usually under the APCR ammo type in game which makes sense since APCR is a sub-caliber penetrator too. But WG seemingly realized that they can simply use AP for these rounds too and just buff the velocity which ultimately gives them better normalization on top of the benefits they'd usually have as APCR. Man i thought I was trippin when you were driving next to the bisonte C45, that shit looks even more like an Abrams from behind.
12:09 hey, so I tried this position 2 times already in obj 430 and wz 111 1-4 and both times I was rushed in the same exact way, but way earlier than you (enemies didn't even let me shoot them 2nd time for free, how rude :D ). Is there anything to look at while rushing there? I see you only have succesfull rounds from there and Im wondering what I did wrong.
Since this vehicle exists, there is no point in getting the Super Pershing. Strange how instead of trying to reduce the power creep, WG are turning it to "11" with vehicles like the BZ and the Iron Arnie. If you are in something like Panther 2 or TVP, basically all you can do is cry in the corner of the map and hope to hit a shot or two. Not what I would call fun
At this point I think WG can introduce the T-55AM1 or AM2 (tanks made to counter 1970s and 1980s projectiles) as a tier 10 CW tank and it still won't be OP.
I'd say American and French tanks are the only ones that aren't suffering from this insane OP issue. They're riddled with weak spots to the point that it makes them unbearable to use against other tanks. The AMX M4 54 is fun to use, but if you don't have a position to use your only decent armor, you can get massacred with ease. you don't have the pen to try and muscle through any tough tanks either. The only reason I don't truly go full AMX is because while it is really well balanced, it's opponents are not.
I knew it was broken as soon as I saw the armor. This tank is literally better than the Patriot and the Liberte combined. And those were the broken tanks a few years ago.
It is a year long video but trolled me like nothing before. 13:52 I stopped the video and rushed to the phone... hmm maybe someone called by mistake continues the video wtf someone is trolling me... and I only realized after 2 ringing, dear Sir well played :D
I stopped playing wot 3 months ago now I'm in war thunder and I love it. no rng no arti ok there are planes that want to mess up your day but that's why you hafe the gunner. there is also arcade with a penetration chance indicator, but what makes war thunder so special are the realistic battles.
i am a war thunder player and probably will remain so but there is definatly something to be said about the 1 death system, truly makes the games much more tense
To be fair, Iron Arnie just pretends to be a medium tank, but it is actually a heavy tank with a medium tank badge. It has derpy gun like russian 122s, it is slow as F, has no camo, no DPM... this tank has literally nothing to do with a medium tank except the badge. And looking at it as a heavy tank, it isnt as broken as it seems like.
Honestly, it's very hard for me to make this tank work. The coupola, ring under turret, slow speed, difficult gun. I feel the armor is not reliable. It's one of the situations when everyone loves given tank and you just cannot, despite you know it's OP.
Also got a iron arnie, and i really recomend bounty Improved Aiming System instead of v stabs, its night and day. if you check tanksgg the tanks has really good dispersion values, no need for v stabs. Biggest problem is accuracy IAS solved this.
Wargaming in 2021 we dont want mediums playing as lights like the batchat . Next year they add CVS for mediums and turbo so they can go faster to spot and then see through bushes . Then add field mods buffing view range and speed .Maybe remove the ability for all mediums to use CVS let it buff the lights that need buffs .
Basically iron arnie is just a buffed super pershing. The only reason for wg to put this tank into the game is because they want more money, since we already had super pershing, which is almost as op.
i tried to get back into wot recently and the three biggest issues i saw: gold spamming is the only way to do well because most tanks cannot pen mediums of a tier higher. many older tanks are so laughably outclassed while newer tanks are very poorly balanced in comparison, the T25/2 wasnt even that good in its hayday, and now even the hellcat performs poorly because of its hard capped mobility nerfs while Skoda T25 is dominating in damage most games the maps and games are counter intuitive to the dynamic stats of vehicles. By this i mean tanks like the T25/2 having much higher view range and hellcat having mobility dont mean diddly squat when most maps are set to a 3-lane design with no flank routes or ability to use those tradeoffs that make you so squishy and lacking for dpm. Also includes how god awful bloom is for sub-T8 vehicles and non 500% crews with super duper modules.
This guy always gets those interesting games, because he is THE interesting PLAYER. Man , i have been watching you over a year now, the games in each video are always worth watching. Even some monkeys around here don't get that they are cherrypicked , and you need to put moments where u miss and die , the content never gets boring. GG man.
This tank is broken but I hate the BZ more. I have both and played them enough to see how broken they were. Now I don't play them just like the borat - stupid easy to dominate.
another problem is, those premium tanks are made to make money or to statspad? i mean, premium moneymaker shooting 90% of the time gold ammo... of course the tank is good Gold ammo need a rework. This Iron Arnie is already good, if you make it shoot HEAT as a 'standard' its tier 9 level at minimum
The Iron Arnie is a tier 10 over here on console so it's a lot more balanced. If you ever get fed up with WOT PC you should give console ago, even if it's only briefly.
I have watched some WoT vids out of curiosity, but I still have not the slightest idea what is happening, aside the fact cupolas are like headshots and armor is a stat thing.
you have to wear an apple watch while playing these so we can see how high your blood pressure goes, just make sure it doesn't call emergency services automatically lol

While this thing is strong, I don't think that it is nearly as imbalanced as the BZ, which if you get bored while streaming, I can see you making a crazy compilation vid of it like you did with the Cobra.
This is why i mostly play tier 6 now. Tier 8-10 just needs specific tanks to enjoy. Or you need full gold to have a CHANCE to pen. .
i loved this video, one of my favorite from yours, can you do videos showcasing a tech tree line's tier 8-10 tanks in 1 vid? By that i mean is you showcase like the t32, m103 and t110e5 in 1 video and do your usual ''these tanks are op as hell and underrated'' on it. I hope you understand, cuz i suck at explaining lol
Glad to have you back legend, hope everything went right and you had a lovely Christmas time
an extreme case of power creep (and "feature creep"), unforunately inevitable for a 12 year of FTP game. props to WG for even keeping the game alive this long.
It was FTP only in beta, since the Pz II J was released it's been raw P2W
WG sure had the greatest idea of all times introducing this monstrosity in the game, however, it's overshadowed by the other monstrosity, the BZ-176, but arguably this thing completely makes those who own the Superpershing look like idiots and let's better not compare it with the Pershing, which is the tech tree version. It's the M47, in case someone doesn't know, basically the tier 9 with a little bit less speed and alpha but with the turret of the Super Conqueror. Don't worry though, WG gave it a little cupola easy to hit especially if the driver is moving left and right and backwards and forwards 🤷♂️🤣
What was Wargaming thinking when they added this tank? Wargaming: MONEY
Wath the f*ck!? THIS THING IS A TIER 10 IN CONSOLE, HOW IS IT A TIER 8 ON PC!?
WG: Yes, we totally did just add a tank with composite armor to the game.
In reality, the armor on this is based on an armor package for the M48 Super, a German design to upgrade the M48. It also had a thermal sight. This isn't the only tank in the game with composite armor on it tho, the premium tier 8 and tech tree tier 9 and 10 have something clearly based on the Russian BDD applique composite armor found on modernized T-55s and T-62s.
I find it funny how WG handles APDS and APFSDS in game too. They are usually under the APCR ammo type in game which makes sense since APCR is a sub-caliber penetrator too. But WG seemingly realized that they can simply use AP for these rounds too and just buff the velocity which ultimately gives them better normalization on top of the benefits they'd usually have as APCR.
Man i thought I was trippin when you were driving next to the bisonte C45, that shit looks even more like an Abrams from behind.
What's the name of the song playing at 10:00? Can't find it on epidemic sounds
Considering how these medium tanks are being designed now, it’s only a matter of time before MBTs get added to the game.
unbelievable how many braindead bots you encounter in enemy team, damn
Meanwhile I drive a tier 9 M46 Patton with 218 mm pen and paper armor
Bear in mind that if Arnold is gonna give his ok for this tank in the game...it can't be average.
true
7:43 WoT Universally used vocal sound, usually when RNG smiles upon you and actually guides your shell where you want it to go~
What will be next? equip the stock D-25T gun in IS-4 and release it in tier 8 premium with just add a word 'prototype'? cool
That already exists though, it’s called K-2 or something
last second clutch… these games were insane to watch live too
12:09 hey, so I tried this position 2 times already in obj 430 and wz 111 1-4 and both times I was rushed in the same exact way, but way earlier than you (enemies didn't even let me shoot them 2nd time for free, how rude :D ). Is there anything to look at while rushing there? I see you only have succesfull rounds from there and Im wondering what I did wrong.
In a month or two, as loot boxes season is over, is when we will really know how this tanks perform...
Wargaming: Are we in trouble..?
Wargaming: * looks at profits *
Wargaming: Nope.
10:45 I think Super Pershing can also do it. He has other minuses but not dpm and armor
you mean the pogger pershing? yes, yes absolutely he can do wonders
This man literally played the armored version of the Siege of Jadotville and won.
Can anyone tell me the name of the soundtrack starting at 4:55?
LOL
Kajzoo: “man!, my heart rate went up so high!…”
But looked calm like the terminator 😅
18:08 I wish hard cover can just fall from the sky for me in my games...
Hulldown delivery 🤣🤣🤣
@@kajzoo WG: here's your meta.
9:46 You are only one person on whole World who don’t wath on 4 peoples pushing you on front, but wathingout frome one hiden guy behind you
song at 12:50?
Since this vehicle exists, there is no point in getting the Super Pershing. Strange how instead of trying to reduce the power creep, WG are turning it to "11" with vehicles like the BZ and the Iron Arnie. If you are in something like Panther 2 or TVP, basically all you can do is cry in the corner of the map and hope to hit a shot or two. Not what I would call fun
At this point I think WG can introduce the T-55AM1 or AM2 (tanks made to counter 1970s and 1980s projectiles) as a tier 10 CW tank and it still won't be OP.
I'd say American and French tanks are the only ones that aren't suffering from this insane OP issue. They're riddled with weak spots to the point that it makes them unbearable to use against other tanks. The AMX M4 54 is fun to use, but if you don't have a position to use your only decent armor, you can get massacred with ease. you don't have the pen to try and muscle through any tough tanks either. The only reason I don't truly go full AMX is because while it is really well balanced, it's opponents are not.
Is it weird that I still prefer my Super Pershing to the Iron Arnie?
When you compare the T26E4 Super Pershing to the Iron Arnie, you get the definition of power creep.
@@KawaiiFemBoi because you dont see tier 10s
Id love to have 2v9 where all the enemies are very low and coming at me one at a time , but no , they are full hp and rushing 5 at a time
I knew it was broken as soon as I saw the armor. This tank is literally better than the Patriot and the Liberte combined. And those were the broken tanks a few years ago.
Thanks!
These heart-pounding battles were commonplace years ago, then WG introduced this stupid MM that was totally unbalanced most of the time.
Kind of tank like BZ who are balanced around HEAT round of T8 instead of regular ammo.
It is a year long video but trolled me like nothing before. 13:52 I stopped the video and rushed to the phone... hmm maybe someone called by mistake continues the video wtf someone is trolling me... and I only realized after 2 ringing, dear Sir well played :D
This has been WGs tactic for years now. Release a OP premium that you must purchase something to get it then wait several months and then nerf it.
That's the reason I switched from playing mainly heavies to mediums like the Leo or stb. I'm fed up with their hull down meta.
I stopped playing wot 3 months ago now I'm in war thunder and I love it. no rng no arti ok there are planes that want to mess up your day but that's why you hafe the gunner. there is also arcade with a penetration chance indicator, but what makes war thunder so special are the realistic battles.
i am a war thunder player and probably will remain so but there is definatly something to be said about the 1 death system, truly makes the games much more tense
what's the song at 8:57 ?
How do u make it that on the top u can see all of the tanks healths?
To be fair, Iron Arnie just pretends to be a medium tank, but it is actually a heavy tank with a medium tank badge. It has derpy gun like russian 122s, it is slow as F, has no camo, no DPM... this tank has literally nothing to do with a medium tank except the badge. And looking at it as a heavy tank, it isnt as broken as it seems like.
This is what T26E4 Super Pershing used to be until they broke his knees.
JA PIERDOLE ALE ZAJEBISTE ODJEBAŁEŚ TAKIE AKCJE
I just don' t understand why a tier 8 medium has 300 mm of HEAT penetration....
Honestly, it's very hard for me to make this tank work. The coupola, ring under turret, slow speed, difficult gun. I feel the armor is not reliable. It's one of the situations when everyone loves given tank and you just cannot, despite you know it's OP.
Bro this changed way before world of tanks, the defender, the proggeto heavy.
Also got a iron arnie, and i really recomend bounty Improved Aiming System instead of v stabs, its night and day. if you check tanksgg the tanks has really good dispersion values, no need for v stabs. Biggest problem is accuracy IAS solved this.
This tier X looks really powerful
Wargaming in 2021 we dont want mediums playing as lights like the batchat . Next year they add CVS for mediums and turbo so they can go faster to spot and then see through bushes . Then add field mods buffing view range and speed .Maybe remove the ability for all mediums to use CVS let it buff the lights that need buffs .
Basically iron arnie is just a buffed super pershing. The only reason for wg to put this tank into the game is because they want more money, since we already had super pershing, which is almost as op.
10:34 not many tier 8 heavy tanks could do that…
The gold pen is insane, I was playing hulldown caernarvon and he went straight through the front of my turret.
We had Panzerkampfwagen. Now we have Kanzerkampfwagen
You can face hug the Vipera and it won’t be able to pen you as it won’t be able to aim at your cupola and can’t see your lower plate.
i tried to get back into wot recently and the three biggest issues i saw:
gold spamming is the only way to do well because most tanks cannot pen mediums of a tier higher.
many older tanks are so laughably outclassed while newer tanks are very poorly balanced in comparison, the T25/2 wasnt even that good in its hayday, and now even the hellcat performs poorly because of its hard capped mobility nerfs while Skoda T25 is dominating in damage most games
the maps and games are counter intuitive to the dynamic stats of vehicles. By this i mean tanks like the T25/2 having much higher view range and hellcat having mobility dont mean diddly squat when most maps are set to a 3-lane design with no flank routes or ability to use those tradeoffs that make you so squishy and lacking for dpm. Also includes how god awful bloom is for sub-T8 vehicles and non 500% crews with super duper modules.
WT : Even the lowest tank in tech tree can bring down top tier tank. As long as they are blind and you wait passionately.
THIS THING HAS BEEN ADDED AS A TIER 10 IN CONSOLE. IT'S EXACTLY THE SAME
Remember when old HE and arty could counter hulldown machines?
I'm going insane I see the green among us imposter in the thumbnail on the left tank.
Quit this game a long time ago but I still tune in from time to time to see how deep the boogaloo has gotten
Everytime I see the new shenanigans WG comes up with it reminds me why I stopped playing.
This guy always gets those interesting games, because he is THE interesting PLAYER. Man , i have been watching you over a year now, the games in each video are always worth watching. Even some monkeys around here don't get that they are cherrypicked , and you need to put moments where u miss and die , the content never gets boring. GG man.
When i saw the thumbnail the first thing that started playing in my head was little dark age
This tank is broken but I hate the BZ more. I have both and played them enough to see how broken they were. Now I don't play them just like the borat - stupid easy to dominate.
another problem is, those premium tanks are made to make money or to statspad? i mean, premium moneymaker shooting 90% of the time gold ammo... of course the tank is good
Gold ammo need a rework. This Iron Arnie is already good, if you make it shoot HEAT as a 'standard' its tier 9 level at minimum
feels like a fast Super Pershing early days
Some time ago, SP was considered op, then WG nerved it. And then made Iron Arnie. What a bs...
so the arnie is pretty much the super Pershing before it was nerfed with better alpha?
We see do many tier IX and X tanks praying on tier VIII, I don't see the issues now that a tier VIII can stand up to them and win.
The Iron Arnie is a tier 10 over here on console so it's a lot more balanced. If you ever get fed up with WOT PC you should give console ago, even if it's only briefly.
On console this is a tier 10
I have watched some WoT vids out of curiosity, but I still have not the slightest idea what is happening, aside the fact cupolas are like headshots and armor is a stat thing.
you have to wear an apple watch while playing these so we can see how high your blood pressure goes, just make sure it doesn't call emergency services automatically lol
I think it helps when idiots on enemy not cap to lure you out of hulldown.
duuude, that last second victory was epic
