If I don't see the platoons of justice video for the double barrel soviet TD just because it is low tier, I am gonna cry. That tank is the biggest meme tank ever.
Also, this tank has 41mm of turret and gun roof armour because "F YOU, YOU DON'T GET TO OVERMATCH WITH A 122mm GUN, THAT'D GIVE THE NEW PREM TANK A WEAKPOINT!!11!!".
It had 29mm on the part over the gun breach in the first iteration, but they increased it to the 41mm it is now in the second test. They originally had the right idea going for it, but then they just ruined it and made it an indestructible hulldown beast which is awful to fight against.
You forgot this thing had a nasty 1100 alpha HE shell that was removed and replaced by a completely useless AP round. This happened between the 1.19 test (I was there in the supertest) and the 1.19 launch. This tank is simply disgusting. It's the upgraded version of the O-ho but way more penetration, mobility and armor.
@@juanjosedelpinorivas7099 honestly, that 1100 alpha HE shell wasn't much more useful since it only had 75mm of pen, at least the AP can pen some things that the current HE shell can't.
@@thegiantpotato3068 I guess the current AP was supposed to be HE with low pen and high alpha, kind of like the Type 4 and Type 5 now. Nevertheless, it's totally pay to win because 208 AP and 650 alpha vs 225 pen and 800 alpha. It's not at the level of the golden era of the Type 5 Heavy but still it's going to demolish low tiers and there are many tanks out there that are going to be penetrated by those shells, like Char Futures, Leopards, TVPs, light tanks...7200 credits is a pretty high price for those shells.
So in short, it's a meta AF tier 8 KV-2 that also has a tier 10.4 turret and a tier 9.7 hull that can also use rockets to boost and ram kill, mmm mmm mmm, yummy, just what tier 8 needs. :/
I remember when I first saw the stats for this tank in the supertest, and the very first thing I thought was that this is gonna be epic for the platoons of justice.
The word “Sha-Bao” is the abbreviation of “Sha Shang-Gao Bao”, which translate to “Kill (soft target)-High Explosive. Which makes this shell ridiculous. Imagine 225mm Penetration for soft target 😅
@@OliverFlinn l can tell you that Cantonese is just a kind of dialect. But the prononciation is totally different. To be honest, they are not hard to learn if you like kanji but it is hard to find a good teacher since the textbook made by chinese is shit
FYI: After playing this for a bit. Don't go full HESH or 1 AP like in the video. Have at least 10 AP atm. As that AP on that caliber can overmatch the roof, or the gun plate poking up if you see one hull down vs doing 130 damage to it.
Once upon a time the Patriot was considered too OP to be a premium now it seems like all the new tier 8 premiums do tier 10 damage per shot. Power creep has gone insane.
I come from the era of the Lowe and the Mutant...you would be surprised by how much the game has changed since 2012 until now. The rampancy of tier 8 premium tanks being completely superior to the tech tree counterparts is just impossible. Yesterday I had many games where there were at least 12 premium tanks per team. Tier 9 was the only safe haven and premium tanks are steadily infesting that tier too. It's very sad.
6:40 The AP definitely are not completely useless, using a 160mm gun for overmatching cannot be ignored (think 60TP turret roof). 20HE/10AP is my loadout, and it works great.
7:13 sums it up totally. Wonder if the techtree ones will be the same meme, cause putting this memetank in the lootboxes is a 452 IQ move to get even more money from us monkeys
A very interesting perk about this gun: It can overmatch lots of roofs of many tanks because it's a 160mm gun so it can overmatch until 53mm as well as many lateral plates of many tanks trying to sidescrappe. The Skoda T56 has 52mm in the roof, so the HE round will go in. I think the IS-3A has 50 on the roof so yeah, if someone decides to foolishly facehug you, just aim at the roof and punish their insolence.
3:53 Funny you say that, cause they made the BZ-176 a 2 shot autoloader in WoT Blitz, but it has poor mobility and armor. The gun however... 560 alpha per shot, 1120 clipping potential.
Bro I take a extended break from wot and I’m thinking about extending that break longer just so I’m not seeing 7 of these on each team when I come back lol
@@MrZerk815 Honestly I don't have the answer to that. Servers are combined on the test servers if I remember correctly. I came back to the game a few days ago and I see NA sitting below the normal 15K players, which leads me to believe that NA's time has finally arrived.
@jeremiahzaitzgaming3284 I wouldn't say one server is more dedicated than the other, although I could see it. I just believe NA doesn't have enough people, less people = less certainty that the game will stick around. Which in its own way leads to people asking, "is it worth dedicating time and energy towards"?
For another month after this tank's release, I will stick to playing tier 7 down. I did the same when the italian tds came out. Nice of wg to put tanks in the game that are so op that casual and bad players like myself cannot even play their favorite tanks because they are powerless against the prem tank.
The fact that this tank is a Heavy tank with those rockets perfect for ramming or speed, Derp gun, decent accuracy and decent armour, how could WG let this be a T8
Since WoT is now pulling gimmicks from Warships, can my German light tanks get smoke now? Running secondary build on the O-I would be great... Oooh oooh oooh! Actual decent gimmick: All SPGs are limited to firing within render range, from side view only, unless a tank targets an enemy...
One thing that make this tank realy op is his 225 pen on the HE . Since HE doesn't lose pen over distance that mean this value stay the same exepet when it go trough object , add this a good armor and the boost système.... yeah if its not solide i don't know what this is
As a console player, we get everything secondhand after WarGaming tries them out in the main game here, so I’m scared for the day when the BZ series makes it way over to console 💀
If light tanks weren't bad and almost unplayable (not all of them ofc) already, WG adds a tank that can oneshot them. If I remember correctly, there once was a discussion about games being too fast?
WG logic: Mmm yes let's add a hilarious chinese pseudo-abrams with a massive gun and rocket thrusters all while giving it godly armor and gun depression. _Is balans xaxaxa._
Why people complain?! Is the Conra balanced?? Caliban?? Obj. 279(e)?? Chieftain?? Cmon, its a very fun tank at tier 8 for make a lot of credits in my humble opinion.
Faced it for the first time today, it was my mistake to think WG would put a balanced tank into the game as it literally needs t10 GOLD rounds to be penned from the front. Like bruh, even the hull needs gold… and we are talking about a t8 premium that does 750 dmg a hit…

@@nostalgicleopard4036 Not surprised when Quickybaby does the opposite of contributing the community. lol
If I don't see the platoons of justice video for the double barrel soviet TD just because it is low tier, I am gonna cry. That tank is the biggest meme tank ever.
Is there are time limit, like how long can you hold the tears back? To make you cry and release the video afterwards=double win.
There is no such thing as "low tier" on AwesomeEpicGuys channel!
Also, this tank has 41mm of turret and gun roof armour because "F YOU, YOU DON'T GET TO OVERMATCH WITH A 122mm GUN, THAT'D GIVE THE NEW PREM TANK A WEAKPOINT!!11!!".

Imagine 225mm Penetration for soft target 😅
and even if you don't penetrate, you still get some damage.. it's insane
lmfao
Sha Shang actually translate to lethality , so it would be high lethality explosive
Is mandarin/cantonese hard to learn?
@@OliverFlinn l can tell you that Cantonese is just a kind of dialect. But the prononciation is totally different.
To be honest, they are not hard to learn if you like kanji but it is hard to find a good teacher since the textbook made by chinese is shit

BZ-176: yes I'm so balance
caliban looks soo underrated compared to this
@@gigione113 You mean underwhelming?
@removethatpfp usubhhumanssackoffshiitbbittcchh What?
@removethatpfp usubhhumanssackoffshiitbbittcchh 🤔🤔🤔🤔
Between the 1.19 test and 1.19, WG removed the 1100 damage HE round and last second swapped it for an AP round and kept the HESH esk round lol
Lmao
It's not even HESH
Very nice of you guys to show the codes of other creators. Good supportive to the whole WoT community.
True facts, they are not the awesome epic guys without a reason right?
FYI: After playing this for a bit. Don't go full HESH or 1 AP like in the video. Have at least 10 AP atm. As that AP on that caliber can overmatch the roof, or the gun plate poking up if you see one hull down vs doing 130 damage to it.

Ah yes, more balanced premium tank
Fun fact, ap can overmatch that barrel part that sticks out when you use gun depression. So ap is useful when u fight another bz
Totally fair and balanced nice work wg!
It's stronk against tier 8, when Bz needs to fight against 9-10 tiers it's bad because Has low penetration
@@MT_Real_ who needs penetration when you can just ram them to death
@@MT_Real_That didn't age well... 😅
This tank caught me off guard with 900 damage on my last game in SU-130PM. Really fair and balanced WG.🤐
I once hit a SU-130PM for 1100 with the HE on the Obj.704. A hilarious and seriously unlucky experience (for him) ;)
Its like an Isu-152. But with Tier 10 heavy armour, good mobilty and a turret. And a little les pen.
This game just gets more ridiculous every day. Thank you for going through this for us. TY Guys
The AP rounds are v useful for overmatching plates, including the roof of a bz176 itself
Yep! We didn't know about that during the recording!

I think the IS-3A has 50 on the roof so yeah, if someone decides to foolishly facehug you, just aim at the roof and punish their insolence.
HE doesn't overmatch though, only AP and APCR, which is why you pack at least a few AP shells.
another balanced tank...just what the game need
Everyone else: BZ-176 isn't gonna be very META or good with HE rounds
AEG: IT'S TIME TO RAM!
a lot of content creators say it's kinda broken and one of the best heavy tanks currently
Then those people haven't See the 225mm pen HE
Death Star: who are you?
BZ-176: I’m you but better because paper design and gimmicks
3:53
Funny you say that, cause they made the BZ-176 a 2 shot autoloader in WoT Blitz, but it has poor mobility and armor. The gun however... 560 alpha per shot, 1120 clipping potential.

"Who wants to taste the balance?" That killed me. Same for all the rocket-powered rams. Terrible game, hilarious vids. Thank you for the laughs!
Thx for watching ;)
@@AwesomeEpicGuys Three-mark Tornvagn. Please make this happen! Taste the pain! LoL
funnily enough it was going to do 1100/800. glad they changed that.
Can we just combine NA with EU already? Pretty sure NA is on its last leg.
@Jeremiah Zaitz Gaming how exactly? I've been playing for 10 years on NA. I'd be down for a server merge.
@@MrZerk815 Honestly I don't have the answer to that. Servers are combined on the test servers if I remember correctly. I came back to the game a few days ago and I see NA sitting below the normal 15K players, which leads me to believe that NA's time has finally arrived.
It would reduce my lag if they put the servers in the EU so I'm down
@jeremiahzaitzgaming3284 I wouldn't say one server is more dedicated than the other, although I could see it. I just believe NA doesn't have enough people, less people = less certainty that the game will stick around. Which in its own way leads to people asking, "is it worth dedicating time and energy towards"?
@@_bravo_8581 SA barely sees 2k players on peak It's still running. NA is far from dead.
im not kidding in the firsts seconds of the video i thought it was a tier 10 tank, then i realised it wasnt, thats balance
When will they find the "blue prints" of the rocket powered Maus tank with a burst cannon
yeah i think an autoloader or autoreloader would work
The real overpowered element here is the platoon of two skilled players. This was a great advertisement guys! lol
I recommend loading about 6-7 AP rounds in case you meet other BZ’s on the battlefields as you can overmatch their roofs
Seems balanced..... cant wait to encounter platoons with this in randoms
Caliban : So, they said. You are myself but in another space? How balance you are, don't you?
"It hits a little bit too much for a tier VIII" said Edvan ... Meanwhile Caliban is crying in corner XD
this guys are the only ones that make this game... "fun"
This is the best example of a pay-to-win in the entire game, I've never seen anything so broken
Need more tanks like this . Soo battles can finish in one minute. Lul
1:26 use spacebar to have better turning
The gun and armor they should make sure isn't stupid on the new tech tree but I'm happy to see another meme ram tank
These AP rounds are perfect if you meet another balanced tanked in hulldown position. Then you load AP and balance the turret roof with auto-pen.
I like the sound of the rockets engine
This tank the definition of awesomeEpicGuys, and I'm proud of it!
the Bing-Zhilling seems balemced
I'm scared to be put against this tank in my leopard 1.
For another month after this tank's release, I will stick to playing tier 7 down. I did the same when the italian tds came out.

Flank and destroy
@@mackdyegames3035 jUsT flAnK
Delete Wot pls.
this is like the T49 ammo selection in wotb an the same fun
The fact that this tank is a Heavy tank with those rockets perfect for ramming or speed, Derp gun, decent accuracy and decent armour, how could WG let this be a T8
The BZ’s rocket activation sounds excatly like the dreadnoughts missiles in C&C red alert 3
Edvin is the kind of guy to call any kind of speed increase a turbo
6:34 Premium tank will never be more powerfull than normal tanks from Tech Tree, It will destroy the BALANCE
Since WoT is now pulling gimmicks from Warships, can my German light tanks get smoke now? Running secondary build on the O-I would be great... Oooh oooh oooh! Actual decent gimmick: All SPGs are limited to firing within render range, from side view only, unless a tank targets an enemy...
This tank look’s like it was made for you guys 😂. Speed alpha damadge and armor ! Perfeclly balanced !
The balance department is apparently already in the christmas vacations...
on 5:12 it sounds like the commander said see zwhatsh
This tank have same 225mm premium ammo pen as IS6 225mm premium pen ammo
One thing that make this tank realy op is his 225 pen on the HE . Since HE doesn't lose pen over distance that mean this value stay the same exepet when it go trough object , add this a good armor and the boost système.... yeah if its not solide i don't know what this is
i wish this BZ have AP, premium AP/APCR/HEAT that deal more dmg but less pen and premium HESH, make the gun more unique.
Sounds like an su 100y with premium hesh. It has too many premium rounds. Choose between premium ap etc or the premium hesh
@@pencilcase8068 except it has AP for gold ammo... yeah, less pen. But still it's AP with all its rules...
Pov ur in school and can't play the tanks till u come home
When the rockets set out they sound like GTA-s wasted sound is coming
As a console player, we get everything secondhand after WarGaming tries them out in the main game here, so I’m scared for the day when the BZ series makes it way over to console 💀
Many console and blitz lines aren't in wot yet or are just being introduced, for example Yoh and japanese tds
good thing i put aeg commander on my bz to hear "thats a lot of damage"
I just got this tank and the Char this morning but haven't had a chance to play them yet. They do look interesting...
Damn, I was about to return to this game. Oh well...
I'm a bit surprised they put it in Christmas boxes instead of waiting for the Chinese new year
Yay finally a epic platoons of justice video again ❤ nice vid😊
If light tanks weren't bad and almost unplayable (not all of them ofc) already, WG adds a tank that can oneshot them. If I remember correctly, there once was a discussion about games being too fast?
See. This is the tank I want, and the tank I’m gonna get is definitely gonna be Arnold’s tank lol
Literally "World of Fantasy"
I guess I will avoid T8 for the next time...
**WG hq**
Yuri: you know what this game needs?
Dmitri: another broken tier 8 premium?
Yuri: you're promoted!
The AP shells can overmatch a lot of heavies roof while HE shell doesn't
TIER V double barrel TD is even more OP :D
5:00 I would rage so hard if I were that is3a☠️
1 year anniversary. Still broken tank
The only thing I don't like about this tank is the fact that I don't have it in my garage
Super chonk tonk comfirmed ✅
The AP shells on this tank are not useless, you can pen the turret roof of another BZ with them.
WG logic: Mmm yes let's add a hilarious chinese pseudo-abrams with a massive gun and rocket thrusters all while giving it godly armor and gun depression. _Is balans xaxaxa._
If there was ever a tank specifically designed for the fantastic glorious bois, it would be this one
Holy shit the intro is back
i got the BZ-176 in 4 boxes and im using you guys as commander
What in the world is going on? Zwhatsh isn't one one using the naked tank? Inconceivable!
WG should pay you for the AD
My bz have 450 per shot ...😢how you do?
I also want to know
I don't play this game, but damn if this tank doesn't seem absolutely perfectly balanced. This will certainly be the fix to the hull-down meta!
I'm looking forward to having these trying to ram my German superheavies
Bought 3 boxes, first i opened was this beast lol
Ah yes the time of the year when games are filled with op premium tier 8s!
Well...this looks like a gorgeous tank to meet😍
I'm going to have a VERY nice time playing against it...
AP rounds on this tank should have that 600 dmg and 225-235 pene and the premium HE 205 pene with 950 dmg
And I just started playing again... well, it was fun for the short time it lasted
Why people complain?! Is the Conra balanced?? Caliban?? Obj. 279(e)?? Chieftain?? Cmon, its a very fun tank at tier 8 for make a lot of credits in my humble opinion.
I love how WG just makes this game more unbearable for F2P players, its either you pay up, suffer or uninstall, "No Fun for you!"
