My wife came back from work and said my god your listening to that bloke again...had to remind her of her love of home and and away and neighbours. .. She hates the mighty jingles...her loss lol...I fkin love you dude
This was definitely an awesome episode. If the Luchs is the cutest tank then the ELC is the French supermodel. Sleek and slender, elegant and graceful. Also, I hate XVM and refuse to use it at all. 9/10ths of the time all it does is either defeat your team's morale or inflate their ego. I've already got very little faith in my teams as it is and most times I can predict outcomes via tank type distribution. I don't need some asshole yelling out "gg" at the start of the match because some program tells him he's going to lose. To me when you do that you've defeated yourself before you even try. Yes your team may be shit but replays like that one with the Type T-34 only reinforce the idea to me that while stats can say things about other players, it's certainly not the entire picture.
***** I think someone has some hostility issues. I wasn't necessarily outlining reasons I don't use it. I was outlining reasons why I think it's a bad thing in general for the game. I'm SOOOOO sorry if that got your little panties in a twist little man. Maybe for YOU it is needed but I'd rather take my chances and fight to the best of my ability in every match instead of worrying about the stats of players on the enemy team. I do what I can and every match I treat every enemy as a threat because every enemy is a threat regardless of what the numbers may say.
Yeah, those win chance predictions more often than not seem to turn into self fulfilling prophecies by demoralizing people and by making them either give up right away or play too passively, which often amounts to the same. Funny enough, most games in which people on my team got defeatist in chat at the beginning and in which I bothered to engage them and tell them that they shouldn't believe everything XVM tells them recently, my underdog team won, often without the help of the complainer.
TrangleC Agreed. Anyone that pays attention doesn't really need XVM in my opinion. You can use map awareness, knowledge of the tank types (I.E. Strengths weaknesses) and a plethora of other things that any player should know to help you in game. I'm sure it is helpful in some cases but more often than not I think it takes a bit of fun out of the game in general when you're so hung up on the numbers.
I use xvm to see who I can trust as a teammember and know when my enemy knows what hes doing. I mean a superunicum must have some kind of understandment of the game and a player under 300wn8 is probably not aiming for weakspots.
I run my Jumbo with the M1A2 76mm, I normally do well with it, only my Sherman III and M4 run the 105mm, the E8 and E2 run the M1A2 76 and the Firefly runs the 17lber
As a german, I couldn't stop laughing when you compared the luchs to waltz, prochnow and kruger. How do you know them, waltz and kruger is obvious, but which movie with prochnow have you seen, jingles?
Edmund Wearing UE57 is small but not cute. because it's French and French's design is UGLY well except the upcoming AMX 30B I guess. it looks pretty smexy.
***** France has beautiful tanks, like the AMX 50 100 and the AMX 13 90... and it has the cutest tank in WoT. Yeah, you know what is coming... Mr. Duck.
Thank you for installing XVM. It really does help with clearing up whats happening at the moment and in my eyes it also helps improving the quality of the shown footage since we ourself can't really interact with the replay and thus can't have that "overview" or "immersion" or whatever you wanna call it of someone who does if you understand what I mean. It's really hard to concentrate on you talking while watching the replay and trying for example to keep count on the amount of damage someone does. In this case the hitlog in the top-left corner really helps. And thank you for those (almost) daily uploads you do, it's always nice to get home from school and watch some Jingels messing something up (War Thunder - The Shermanator anyone?) ^^.
WHY is everyone using 2nd turret with Jumbo? Jumbo is 'heavy' with good armor but anemic guns. And when you get 2nd turret, you basically make it into slow medium with mediocre penetration. Trust me, it's not enough to compensate for loss of armor, which is 152mm + 177mm mantlet. Heck, even cupola has 152mm.
The upgraded turret only gives you the M1A2 76mm gun. The stock uber-armored turret still gets the M1A1 76mm gun. The only difference, if I recall correctly, is slightly lower reload speed in the A1, and maybe lesser accuracy. Personally, I usually ride in my E2 with the A1. You can troll tier 8 tanks with that mantlet+armor!
Magnus Bergman The difference in reload speed is not minor, it's about 25%-30% reduction in DPM basically plus the accuracy drop which was also substantial... it's still doable to compete with the M1A1, but when you have been using either weapon for a long time, you will notice the difference...
It's perfectly fine to use the second turret and 76mm M1A2... PROVIDED, you can capitalize on the gun and be aware that you need to keep the mantlet faced towards the enemy at all times... and NEVER stand still while the enemy is aiming at you because anyone half decent that knows what the turret armor is like will be aiming at the gaps below/side/above the mantlet. I ran the Jumbo with 76mm M1A2 and 2nd turret for about 85% of it's career ... out of about 1400 battles or so with it, and it never failed me... and i am just semi decent (not even) player.... Someone actually good should have no problem whatsoever smashing face with it.... and not touching the 105mm gun at all.
I like how the team in the type t-34 clip are like 'way to go we were the underdogs and won' yeah, because you were carried by one guy for the most part, but i guess the rest had to have held their own to improve the odds somewhat
@Mighty Jingles: YOU are single handedly responsible that I researched and bought a Luchs! It is so much fun to drive around in this little thing. I hate you! Instead of grinding for the Tiger II I am having fun! Inconceivable! World of Tanks is not supposed to be so funny.
Jingles thank you and quickybaby for you replays and videos. just sold my house so these replays keep me up to date on stuff. im completely disconnected from WOT and all other game. My current laptop will not play any games. Only youtube and other general sites. Will be off line for several months. Cheers Mate thanks for your work, on all games.
If they add a Commander Jingles to Armored Warfare, one of his lines should be "And, on that bombshell, looks as though you've totally screwed up again." when his tank is destroyed. Preferably by a bombshell.
Wargaming have lost me. Im really just so sick of all the nerfs. And the new patch bring accuracy nerfs has really just put me off. One of my favorite tanks in the game is the leopard 1. and the great thing about it is its ACCURACY and mobility. It has been power creeped with the recent additions of these dpm monsters. I wish they would stop adding new premiums and carbon copies of russian tier ten mediums, and tank destroyers that rape you in 10 seconds. And just balance what we have. They need to work on the fundamentals and stop buffing and nerfing basic game mechanics every patch. they need to focus on it and make it better. rant done. what do you think about them jingles?
Phillip Huang ACTUALLY. They are making it to where the shell flies around the aiming circle more. sooo yeah. you can be fully aimed all you want and still miss even if you have .3 accuracy all day long. true it does cause firing on the move and snap shotting less accurate BUT its BECAUSE the shell will fly all over the aiming circle more. maybe you should read the footnotes?
Rubin McCack Haven't seen the changes to the aiming circle, have we? 'Cause if you did you would know that it BARELY hurts people who fully aim. They've sliced the circle in 10 zones which is gonna make snap shotting A LOT harder. Also i do realize that they've decreased the chance that the shell will hit bullseye by 6% but the chance that the shell will hit the adjacent zone has been increased by the same amount. You'll still hit the center more than anything IF YOU AIM.
been playing WoT since 2011, and for every day and every patch the thrill of the game disapears more and more. I really try to have fun, but it aint there anymore. Loosing and winning feels the same!? The only thrill is to watch the game on UA-cam, so thank you Jingles
you had a Clarkson-ish sort of humor with that last replay Jingles... You thought you could fool me, but you couldn't. "And on that bombshell gave it away totally". Now, tell me Clarkson... WHO IS THE STIG?!
When I first got my Luchs, I hated it... but then once everything was upgraded- I came to love that little tank. Sadly, had to sell it for the credits, but may buy it again soon
For gods sake there is a difference between "xvm" and "xvm with stats enabled". XVM just gives you more information, mostly with the minimap, that is extremely useful. All these people who say they don't use XVM just because you can turn on stats (yes, they are disabled by default) are just shooting themselves in the foot.
I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, Jingles, but on the Xbox 360 edition, the Jumbo can carry either gun with either turret. The latest update allows the heavier turret with the M1A2 gun, and damn is it a fantastic combo.
Luchs is Jurgen Prochnow! The moment you started naming American actors I thought about Jurgen! I just wanted to write it here and the next moment you said Jurgen Prochnow. Jurgen is fantastic actor, and imposing with his physicality.
Sorry for all the comments, but just noticed that Jingles said "And on that bombshell..." just like at the end of the British Top Gear... I will admit, I am a 'merican, but Britain (usually) does a much better job at creating films/TV shows/etc (such as Top Gear and Downton Abbey). Do you watch Top Gear, Jingles?
what better way to spend your birthday than chilling with caterpillar chocolate cake (which i coloured to look like a tog) and watching jingles all day
Hey Jingles I am one of those World of Tanks commoners who play on the XBOX 360 version (I know, I know I am not worthy of being in the same company as the World of Tanks PC player Nobles:-) But please indulge me for a moment. Anyway after watching today's video I went back and looked at the packages available on my Jumbo. Low and behold at some point they changed it on the XBOX so you can use the 76mm with the big heavy turret. As expected it drops the view range to 330 BUT also the rate of fire down to just over 14.4. So I fitted it (for free) and took my JUMBO out on the town! The tank not my, never mind... Lost a close match but boy did it take a beating and I was one of the last to be taken out and as usual one of the top xp earners on my team. My question to you is on your advice I fitted the vertical stabilizer (as you have said if your tank can fit one then you probably should) but with the big turret being able to fit the 76 what should my equipment fitting be? Currently I am running Vertical stabilizer, Vents and Gun Rammer. I am thinking of pulling the Vertical Stabilizer in favour of Coated optics (to gain back most of the view range loss) and keeping the Vents and Gun Rammer. What say you sir??? Thank you for all your advice and these great videos, most of my 20 plus tanks in my garage I have acquired based on your reviews and recommendations. My Spouse and Wallet don't thank you (too much time and money spent playing WOT:-) but I THANK YOU! PS, shameless plug time: I have a tiny You Tube channel where I play short elements from my old not for profit nationally syndicated campus comedy Radio show here in Canada. The content is written and produced by me I am about to revamp the channel as I am now a stay at home Dad but a lot of my best work is currently posted on it if you would care to have a listen.
That Luchs replay really makes me want to be able to send in my BT-7 replay from a year or more ago in which I spent two minutes running through half the enemy team, a whole 3rd of them chasing me and never landing a shot until the physics decided to derp and caused me to come to a halt directly in front of a loaded Hetzer. Would you be able and/or willing to show a replay from that long ago Jingles?
Looked through the comments and didn't see it pointed out. The top turret on the Jumbo has the same frontal armour as the stock turret (152mm) but that 76mm sides and rear is the downfall along with the fact the stock turret is very rounded while the upgraded one has flatter sides. I've had the 122mm of a KV-85 bounce off the back of the turret.
Jingles, the Jumbo works just fine with the 105mm and regular HE ammo, primarily because the turret "upgrade" is a major downgrade and totally nerfs what the Jumbo does best, which is take hits. With proper angling and the stock turret, the Jumbo is ridiculously bouncy, and the HE ammo lets you do surprising things like stand against numerous heavies and hold a single corridor by yourself while still dealing damage to well angled and armored heavies. (particularly module damage - taking out an enemy gun module is a great way to eliminate enemies from a game when you can't hurt them any other way)
I've never used the 105mm gun in my Jumbo tbh. I didn't even know Jumbo is usually considered a "premium ammo tank" or that people usually use the howitzer. I use the first 76mm gun with the stock turret and I'm having monster games with it.
I've actually used the Jumbo for quite sometime and the reason I don't use the howitzer is very simple - this tank sees tier 8s, and that howitzer just can't do the job reliably against them. I still use it on the M4 of course, but it feels quite underpowered on the Jumbo in tier 8 games, which I seem to get into half of the time I hit 'battle'.
I am in complete dismay after witnessing that horrendous sight! I am talking with my physiologist right now and have been diagnosed with PTSD. That poor Luchs...
Here we go: "Er, actually Jingles, the Matilda IV is the Soviet machine with a crappy little 75mm gun with terrible penetration" Hopefully the overlord of the salt mines will have mercy on my soul...
Jingles, the second turret on the Jumbo is actually not that bad because it has the same mantlet as the first one. Only the armor around and below the mantlet is bad but you can still use the mantlet quite well.
I have to say jingles,that with the Jumbo, there's no need to get the upgraded turret. You keep the tough on, but you dint get that 76mm upgraded cannon, you get intermediate 76mm, that is just the same that the upgraded one with less DPM. It has a slower reload. Just a bit. And with BIA, some vents it's solved. And so, you have the tough turret and the rapid firing 76mm (the not that rapid firing said)
The next time anybody thinks about it and runs the Luchs, play some silly music in the background. I always do it and with the moves the Luchs can pull off, I usually end up dying because I am laughing hysterically at the amount of shenanigans I am able to pull off.
I don't know about anyone else, but to me, the M5 Stuart with the howitzer (before they nerfed it out of existence D:) was the cutest and most hilarious light tank in the game. To this day it is in my favourite tank and the best tank I've ever performed with haha.
I actually use mostly HE ammo on 105mm derps since the HEAT nerf and it works very well. In my opinion, the added penetration of the HEAT isn't worth the cost in most scenarios, though I do carry some HEAT to shoot when it makes sense (surprise butt-sex on heavy tanks comes to mind). The HE is also great when you are bottom tier as you can keep enemies tracked, wreck other modules/crew, and do consistent damage. It also helps that the devs keep adding more and more targets that have armor which is easily penned by HE shells.
---Luchs kills a Luchs--- Jingles you shouldv'e put something like a PSA up along with that song/music "in the arms of an angel" right when he killed him xD
Some comments on the first video with the Sherman Jumbo. I use the 76mm M1A1 on my Jumbo as well, it does quite well if you prefer to engage at midrange like I do. Armor for the turret looks bad, but it's better than the numbers because the numbers don't include the mantlet. From the front there's actually very little of the poor armor to be hit because the upgraded turret is so much slimmer than the stock one. Though the upgraded one is paper as soon as someone shoots it in the side or rear, unlike the stock turret. Which is why if you're sticking with the 105mm you should stick with the first turret. As for gold, only the uninformed still use HEAT on it. After the last series of nerfs mid-tier HEAT generally can't penetrate the sort of targets you would want to use HEAT on. You're better off with regular HE and the little bot of bleed through. Then switch to HEAT for side shots, when it's going to penetrate but HE still won't.
Luchs is a fun tank to drive but in my view , any player can be really good and can have fun when he is in a good team and fighting against good players .
My wife came back from work and said my god your listening to that bloke again...had to remind her of her love of home and and away and neighbours. ..
She hates the mighty jingles...her loss lol...I fkin love you dude
Wives are such flighty creatures, but Jingles is for life!
Actually Jingles, I think you'll find the Matilda IV doesn't have the 2 pounder... I'll get my coat.
here take my kevlar
and this helmet in case he aims your head
Yup. I think it has a 6lb gun.
AzureBeatPony It's a Russian 75mm
***** An helmet won't help you, it's already been proven that the standard issue helmets can be penetrated by 9mm rounds upwards(45acp,5.56,7.62 etc).
mickles1975 You mean 76mm F series gun. Not 75.
As a Chinese medium driver, I always chuckle when Jingles call 5 degrees of gun depression "bad".
+Cultureghost As a LTTB driver, I'm dying laughing everytime he says something like this ^^
The_Nephandi us 3 degree gun depression people have to stick together.
Cultureghost LTTB trolling is one of favourite jobs with my ELC AMX =)
thats why he hates arty : poor gun depression
Can someone tell UA-cam to stop giving me FIFA videos to watch? Sorry, but I've got more than 8 functioning brain cells.
Lol poor you!
1st world problems
SpyparZ Ze Sphee yup
There 8 likes for your more than 8 functioning brain cells.
Try doubling that :P
I've been binging Jingles here in 2021, and laughed out loud at 3:36.
This was definitely an awesome episode.
If the Luchs is the cutest tank then the ELC is the French supermodel. Sleek and slender, elegant and graceful.
Also, I hate XVM and refuse to use it at all. 9/10ths of the time all it does is either defeat your team's morale or inflate their ego.

The ELC reminds me more to a french version of Rober downey junior
I ran the 76mm on the jumbo for a long time, because I like higher penetration, and higher RoF, especially when I was much worse at gunnery.
i play the jumbo with the stock turret and the M1A1 76 mm gun
its not a good gun but it gets the job done while still retaining that turret
***** I ran the same, derp guns don't work for me.
straswa Same here, gotta love that thing :D
wotreplays.com/site/263756
Best game i had in that tank so far ^^
I run my Jumbo with the M1A2 76mm, I normally do well with it, only my Sherman III and M4 run the 105mm, the E8 and E2 run the M1A2 76 and the Firefly runs the 17lber
I did my entire Jumbo grind with the M1A1 76mm and heavy turret. When you have that much armor, a worse ROF means little to me.
As a german, I couldn't stop laughing when you compared the luchs to waltz, prochnow and kruger.
How do you know them, waltz and kruger is obvious, but which movie with prochnow have you seen, jingles?
Well Das Boot, obviously, but also Beverly Hills Cop II, Dune, Judge Dredd, The English Patient, The Replacement Killers etc...
The Mighty Jingles
But Jingles, when comparing cute in WoT, how can you forget the itzy bitzy UE57??? Cuuuuuute!!!!
Edmund Wearing UE57 is small but not cute.
because it's French
and French's design is UGLY
well except the upcoming AMX 30B I guess. it looks pretty smexy.
***** France has beautiful tanks, like the AMX 50 100 and the AMX 13 90... and it has the cutest tank in WoT.
Yeah, you know what is coming... Mr. Duck.
*****
Come on, you're telling me the ELC isn't a beautiful little sports car with a 90mm gun?
The thing i hate the most about jingles's videos is that they come to an end. I could literaly sit all day in bed watching his videos.
Wow that monologue about Luchs, Jingles you nailed it, especially when you mentioned Jurgen Prochnow! this is why we love you!

Someone actually good should have no problem whatsoever smashing face with it.... and not touching the 105mm gun at all.
Does the second turret still have a great mantlet?
I lost it at the Luchs dying bit. I love his sense of humor.
Who the hell says that the T37 is a good looking tank? It looks like Roger from American Dad. Also did Jingles just say "Oh crap, an AMX 40!"?
Jingles the tiger 1 has 1mm more armor at the front then the Jumbo.
*hears gun getting ready to fire"
Of to the salt mines!
the second replay is why the World of Tanks player-rating system is meaningless
No, not really. Higher ratings just mean you do good more consistently
When you discus about the cutest tanks in WoT, and when you compare T37 to Holywood, oh God, you know you are on Jingles channel! :D
Jumbo is love, Jumbo is life :3
*cough* about the elephant xD
Yeah I work at the Jumbo its also a dutch Supermarket xD
I like how the team in the type t-34 clip are like 'way to go we were the underdogs and won'
yeah, because you were carried by one guy for the most part, but i guess the rest had to have held their own to improve the odds somewhat
The Su-100 at the very end got the point. "What a waste of life in general".
The Ke-Ni takes the cake when it comes to cuteness. Sorry Jingles, the Luchs doesn't even come close.
@Mighty Jingles: YOU are single handedly responsible that I researched and bought a Luchs!
It is so much fun to drive around in this little thing. I hate you! Instead of grinding for the Tiger II I am having fun! Inconceivable! World of Tanks is not supposed to be so funny.
Jingles thank you and quickybaby for you replays and videos. just sold my house so these replays keep me up to date on stuff. im completely disconnected from WOT and all other game. My current laptop will not play any games. Only youtube and other general sites. Will be off line for several months. Cheers Mate thanks for your work, on all games.
Wow. Some great replays. That jumbo was amazing and the luchs driving was epic.
"speaking of things that bite you in the ass" *shows off luchs* hahahaha you kill me Jingles. Love you man.
12:02 "guns are very similar" - Jingles, that's the Russian premium lend-lease Matilda with a 76mm gun
The death of the enemy luchs was accompanied by true, disgust and despair! I hope your voice acting in Fractured Space is as great Jingles!!
Damn, that first dude had a hella beautiful last stand. Brings a tear to my eye
3:34 who else cheered when they heard that voice and knew what was coming
If they add a Commander Jingles to Armored Warfare, one of his lines should be "And, on that bombshell, looks as though you've totally screwed up again." when his tank is destroyed. Preferably by a bombshell.
I call that little tank at 18:20 the "You Can't catch me your too slow Artys!" tank.
Wargaming have lost me. Im really just so sick of all the nerfs. And the new patch bring accuracy nerfs has really just put me off. One of my favorite tanks in the game is the leopard 1. and the great thing about it is its ACCURACY and mobility. It has been power creeped with the recent additions of these dpm monsters. I wish they would stop adding new premiums and carbon copies of russian tier ten mediums, and tank destroyers that rape you in 10 seconds. And just balance what we have. They need to work on the fundamentals and stop buffing and nerfing basic game mechanics every patch. they need to focus on it and make it better. rant done. what do you think about them jingles?
U realize they only nerf snapshots so if you fucking take your time it's the same may people read the footnotes? They're all oh accuracy Ned nooooo
Phillip Huang ACTUALLY. They are making it to where the shell flies around the aiming circle more. sooo yeah. you can be fully aimed all you want and still miss even if you have .3 accuracy all day long. true it does cause firing on the move and snap shotting less accurate BUT its BECAUSE the shell will fly all over the aiming circle more. maybe you should read the footnotes?
Rubin McCack Maybe you should think twice before using "actually". I swear I hear a gun cocking somewhere....
Phillip Huang it's easier to just keep bitching to WG rather take time to read details of a nerf
Rubin McCack
Haven't seen the changes to the aiming circle, have we? 'Cause if you did you would know that it BARELY hurts people who fully aim. They've sliced the circle in 10 zones which is gonna make snap shotting A LOT harder. Also i do realize that they've decreased the chance that the shell will hit bullseye by 6% but the chance that the shell will hit the adjacent zone has been increased by the same amount.

you had a Clarkson-ish sort of humor with that last replay Jingles... You thought you could fool me, but you couldn't. "And on that bombshell gave it away totally". Now, tell me Clarkson...
WHO IS THE STIG?!
Never stop this series Jingles!
Anyone else loved the analogy Jingles made about the Luchs's beauty with naming celebrities?
Jingles WOT videos make my days! 3:27 and 15:55 are my favorite parts of this hilarious video!
hahahahahahaha. the last replay had me crying
It's cool to be able to come home from school, get a snack and watch Jingles!
Just realized...
you are getting famous, Jingles...looks like people enjoy the salt mines so much, they are inviting friends!
i love how every time a commercial comes on here its a war thunder video and he plays war thunder a lot i don't think thats a coincidence at all
SO needed the Benny Hill theme tune for the Luchs game. Been over done I know but this was crying out for it.
When I first got my Luchs, I hated it... but then once everything was upgraded- I came to love that little tank. Sadly, had to sell it for the credits, but may buy it again soon

i have been watching your vids for a few mounts but this is the funniest by far you have earned yourself a sub but lost a worker in the salt mines
I don't know if anyone has mentioned this, Jingles, but on the Xbox 360 edition, the Jumbo can carry either gun with either turret. The latest update allows the heavier turret with the M1A2 gun, and damn is it a fantastic combo.
Luchs is Jurgen Prochnow! The moment you started naming American actors I thought about Jurgen! I just wanted to write it here and the next moment you said Jurgen Prochnow. Jurgen is fantastic actor, and imposing with his physicality.
19:15 is absolutely hilarious.
The replay of the T-34 of remerded me of that replay of the KV-2 on El-Halluf
Worth a like simply for the "shoot a nerd" segment at 3.40 haha
Sorry for all the comments, but just noticed that Jingles said
"And on that bombshell..." just like at the end of the British Top Gear...
I will admit, I am a 'merican, but Britain (usually) does a much better job at creating films/TV shows/etc (such as Top Gear and Downton Abbey).
Do you watch Top Gear, Jingles?
*Sees Luchs*
"Aww, how adorable! :D "
*Pulls trigger*
*Misses*
*Begins tactical running away*
what better way to spend your birthday than chilling with caterpillar chocolate cake (which i coloured to look like a tog) and watching jingles all day
ah jingle videos just in time for some breakfast before work. a good tradition.
Hey Jingles I am one of those World of Tanks commoners who play on the XBOX 360 version (I know, I know I am not worthy of being in the same company as the World of Tanks PC player Nobles:-) But please indulge me for a moment.
Anyway after watching today's video I went back and looked at the packages available on my Jumbo. Low and behold at some point they changed it on the XBOX so you can use the 76mm with the big heavy turret. As expected it drops the view range to 330 BUT also the rate of fire down to just over 14.4.
So I fitted it (for free) and took my JUMBO out on the town! The tank not my, never mind...
Lost a close match but boy did it take a beating and I was one of the last to be taken out and as usual one of the top xp earners on my team.
My question to you is on your advice I fitted the vertical stabilizer (as you have said if your tank can fit one then you probably should) but with the big turret being able to fit the 76 what should my equipment fitting be?
Currently I am running Vertical stabilizer, Vents and Gun Rammer. I am thinking of pulling the Vertical Stabilizer in favour of Coated optics (to gain back most of the view range loss) and keeping the Vents and Gun Rammer.
What say you sir???
Thank you for all your advice and these great videos, most of my 20 plus tanks in my garage I have acquired based on your reviews and recommendations.
My Spouse and Wallet don't thank you (too much time and money spent playing WOT:-) but I THANK YOU!
PS, shameless plug time: I have a tiny You Tube channel where I play short elements from my old not for profit nationally syndicated campus comedy Radio show here in Canada. The content is written and produced by me I am about to revamp the channel as I am now a stay at home Dad but a lot of my best work is currently posted on it if you would care to have a listen.
That Luchs replay really makes me want to be able to send in my BT-7 replay from a year or more ago in which I spent two minutes running through half the enemy team, a whole 3rd of them chasing me and never landing a shot until the physics decided to derp and caused me to come to a halt directly in front of a loaded Hetzer. Would you be able and/or willing to show a replay from that long ago Jingles?
Just looking back a few yrs i see how far and just how much better your wot openings have gotton
I just love the part when he makes that voice and then gun shot sound, makes me laugh every time
19:06 Was that about to be a Hogan's Heroes reference before the other Luchs rolled through?
great video as always Jingles, love it.
Looked through the comments and didn't see it pointed out.
The top turret on the Jumbo has the same frontal armour as the stock turret (152mm) but that 76mm sides and rear is the downfall along with the fact the stock turret is very rounded while the upgraded one has flatter sides.
I've had the 122mm of a KV-85 bounce off the back of the turret.
Ending with "And on that bombshell" why jingles, you must be a Top Gear fan!
Jingles, the Jumbo works just fine with the 105mm and regular HE ammo, primarily because the turret "upgrade" is a major downgrade and totally nerfs what the Jumbo does best, which is take hits. With proper angling and the stock turret, the Jumbo is ridiculously bouncy, and the HE ammo lets you do surprising things like stand against numerous heavies and hold a single corridor by yourself while still dealing damage to well angled and armored heavies. (particularly module damage - taking out an enemy gun module is a great way to eliminate enemies from a game when you can't hurt them any other way)
Jingles and his sound effects AMAZING hahahahaha
Heh. Watch jezza, captain slow, and hamster, jingles?
Captain Slow for President!
+The Mighty Jingles you forgot the mighty stig!
let's not forget Canada!
eh
I've never used the 105mm gun in my Jumbo tbh. I didn't even know Jumbo is usually considered a "premium ammo tank" or that people usually use the howitzer.
I use the first 76mm gun with the stock turret and I'm having monster games with it.
Actually Jingles, the Churchill on Rex's team was the Churchill I, not the Churchill III. Jingles...
I've actually used the Jumbo for quite sometime and the reason I don't use the howitzer is very simple - this tank sees tier 8s, and that howitzer just can't do the job reliably against them. I still use it on the M4 of course, but it feels quite underpowered on the Jumbo in tier 8 games, which I seem to get into half of the time I hit 'battle'.
I am in complete dismay after witnessing that horrendous sight! I am talking with my physiologist right now and have been diagnosed with PTSD. That poor Luchs...
Cmon jingles, time and time again, the cutest tank is the UE-57, tier 3 french shopping cart hands down. That thing is just kawaiiii....
That Sherman Jumbo player - typical WoT baddie. Just keeps driving forward no matter what's going on on the minimap.
If you have played World of Tanks, and have not driven a Luchs, you've missed out on the most fun you can have in WoT.
Here we go:
"Er, actually Jingles, the Matilda IV is the Soviet machine with a crappy little 75mm gun with terrible penetration"
Hopefully the overlord of the salt mines will have mercy on my soul...
I think Jingles is secretly a Luchs sales man and working on a comission.
Jingles, the second turret on the Jumbo is actually not that bad because it has the same mantlet as the first one. Only the armor around and below the mantlet is bad but you can still use the mantlet quite well.
The Luch's replay reminds me the opening of 'Kelly s Hero's' :D
I have to say jingles,that with the Jumbo, there's no need to get the upgraded turret. You keep the tough on, but you dint get that 76mm upgraded cannon, you get intermediate 76mm, that is just the same that the upgraded one with less DPM. It has a slower reload. Just a bit. And with BIA, some vents it's solved. And so, you have the tough turret and the rapid firing 76mm (the not that rapid firing said)
Oh my, the Jumbo with the stock turret was such a bouncy tank, fun to play!
Jingles, will you please do more of the ''Actually Jingles...'' voice in the future because it's hilarious.
Goddammit Jingles!!! Your evil laughter made me laugh so hard that i woke up my family!!! Now i have to sleep on the sofa! :-D
I run the jumbo with the m1a2 and I've never even considered using the derp gun because the m1a2 on this thing works very good for me. ^^
The next time anybody thinks about it and runs the Luchs, play some silly music in the background.
I always do it and with the moves the Luchs can pull off, I usually end up dying because I am laughing hysterically at the amount of shenanigans I am able to pull off.
I don't know about anyone else, but to me, the M5 Stuart with the howitzer (before they nerfed it out of existence D:) was the cutest and most hilarious light tank in the game. To this day it is in my favourite tank and the best tank I've ever performed with haha.
I actually use mostly HE ammo on 105mm derps since the HEAT nerf and it works very well. In my opinion, the added penetration of the HEAT isn't worth the cost in most scenarios, though I do carry some HEAT to shoot when it makes sense (surprise butt-sex on heavy tanks comes to mind). The HE is also great when you are bottom tier as you can keep enemies tracked, wreck other modules/crew, and do consistent damage. It also helps that the devs keep adding more and more targets that have armor which is easily penned by HE shells.
Now that was some fancy tank driving by that luchs
LOL I love that correction voice! wanna hear more of that!
I do love the Luchs... however, the Chaffee is my favorite tank. Luchs is actually #4 behind the KV-2 and the Pz. 1 C, in that order.
watching some top gear lately Jingles, that bombshell ending sounds familiar
YES! I love these. Keep doing what you do, Jingles. :3
Epic as usual MJ .....you made me think about picking the Luch back up........now where is my spare garage slot......OOPS ........good by T 29 :/
That other Luchs...holy shit, they were the epitome of oblivious.
---Luchs kills a Luchs--- Jingles you shouldv'e put something like a PSA up along with that song/music "in the arms of an angel" right when he killed him xD
76mm can actually pen too, specially when you get tier 8 matches. Love the jumbo!
YES! Jingles after the gym. Nothing better than this whilst eating breakfast. C:
Favorite episode of GBU yet.
Jingles, do you have a script or just come up with all that metaphors as you go on? Man you are awesome! Love your videos!
That Sherman jumbo is like Kay's Sherman from GuP movie. Somehow bounce everything.
Finally a chillaxing video
Some comments on the first video with the Sherman Jumbo.
I use the 76mm M1A1 on my Jumbo as well, it does quite well if you prefer to engage at midrange like I do. Armor for the turret looks bad, but it's better than the numbers because the numbers don't include the mantlet. From the front there's actually very little of the poor armor to be hit because the upgraded turret is so much slimmer than the stock one. Though the upgraded one is paper as soon as someone shoots it in the side or rear, unlike the stock turret. Which is why if you're sticking with the 105mm you should stick with the first turret.
As for gold, only the uninformed still use HEAT on it. After the last series of nerfs mid-tier HEAT generally can't penetrate the sort of targets you would want to use HEAT on. You're better off with regular HE and the little bot of bleed through. Then switch to HEAT for side shots, when it's going to penetrate but HE still won't.
Luchs is a fun tank to drive but in my view , any player can be really good and can have fun when he is in a good team and fighting against good players .
