hey Claus can you please try the tier4 british tank destroyer with the small gun? its insanely good for its tier you will have a lot of fun with it i can assure you with that
eh i just drive down the middle and see what happens. remember the #1 rule of team pvp games, the sooner you die, the sooner you can distribute salt and hatred among your people
A lesson I keep forgetting is not to rely on team mates, hide behind them yes, but assume they're tomatoes otherwise. Sometimes the standard of play in a tier 10 battle might as well be tier 3.
I find that switching map positions mid game occasionally helps provided you do so surreptitiously without blundering into hidden dangers while doing so.
Klaus you should have waited until you are no longer spotted before you retreated on that ridgeline. You actually made it obvious that you were retreating allowing the enemy team to know the VK was all alone
The second game pretty much describes why you cannot go wherever you want. At least when you want to serve your team and win. There are some crucial positions for all the different types of tanks to take to put your team in an advantageous situation. Some of those positions need to be taken very early in the game i.e. by light tanks, some need to be blockes i.e. by heavy tanks.and some need to be covered by tank destroyers. That is map positioning. But you will not find that here. Thats just a fun channel.
As a WoT noob, map awareness and positioning is a real challenge for me - I just don't know where to go on unfamiliar maps. There are a few maps that are somewhat familiar, but I mostly seem to get destroyed/lose a lot. My highest tier is 6, and I usually get matched against Tier 8s with 3 Artys...It is very difficult to survive a game, let alone do well. Your videos help me to understand the game better. Thank you.
I have been in the game 10 months with about 9K battles. Map Positioning is just now starting to make sense for me. I think it comes with experience. The most important thing (IMO) is looking at the enemy lineup, just as CK mentioned. Best of Luck!
Hey Claus, just something I noticed at 6.40 was getting lit and then relocating. The enemy can see you pull away. I would suggest waiting 10 seconds to become unspotted and then move. The enemy may well stagnate a while longer.
Very much SteelGutsInTN's philosophy. Be patient and survive, be there at the end and you can make the difference between a win and a loss. What a difference it would make in the game if everyone thought about surviving and more importantly, help each other to survive. Maybe a message from Claus to the VK player in the Lakeville game to stay put might have helped make for an easier victory. Just saying!
@@DeerHunter308 I don't mind a little toxic banter about the game or his teammates but when he spends 20 minutes shitting on his viewers because of a simple comment, it's sorta unwatchable.
Finally. A relevant video. More of this kind of thought process claus. Time to move. Map indications. Watch. Your team etc etc there is a veritable gold mine in This aspect...
now i feel your pain clauss, i decided to jump from console version to pc version, god, theyre all so pragmatic and hot headed especially in the first 5 minutes of battle
Good video Clausman, Translation: I’m mostly a muppet and need to be told how to play this stupid game. Thank you, But one thing I have learned here is you have to play a tank with a bad-ass gun that can mostly “one shot” an enemy to get them out of the game.
22:50 The ELC says "he has 4 hp you guys got this" in chat.... Hey ELC, we've been watching the replay... at this point... I'm not so sure this is Claus at all... It must be an imposter because he's about as indecisive as I am... hahahahaha
It's a great lesson that I can't seem to learn: when you are losing, just don't lose completely, survive until the end. I can do this In chess, but not in tanks lol
I think the super hellcats were being played by the same person. That’s why the one at the back of the map only started playing when the one on the centre road died. Just my opinion.
About 15:20 in the replay. The fault wasn't from your teammates but yours cuz you didn't check that they were not alone in the middle + FFS dude stop blame! You had info that at least 3 tanks are in the middle outside the wall and you pushed there! After that you complain about your teammates that they didn't pick that area! First check what will do your team after that if it's able push. If you like to push anyway with out checking your map at least do not complain about what your team do!
i am having another fantastic day ..i just had a game where i fired 5 shots from my scorpion g and i knocked out 1 tank and got hits and it was credited as they happened then at the end i checked my placement and it said 1 shot and no hits no tanks knocked out ..lolllol ..amazing how that happens. i must have filed a complaint on one of "their " players .. 5 games now in a row says at the end no hits even thou i hit them dead center.. oh yeah in that game with 5 shots that didnt happen they even charged me the resupply for them shots that didnt happen
Likes that these replays played out the full time limit, and not one of those 4.5 min Romplestomps ;-p Still silly to say, "not a unicum/good player" when you get a Top Gun and then a medal for 5 kills.. j/s ;-p
Wouldn't it make sense to let the arty spot? Not too far ahead, ok, but considering arty aim time I'd rather have him killed and a tank getting the killing shot. Also, I would probably had switched to HE at the end with the Standard B on 4hp. Nonetheless, great vid, Claus!
Why at the end of the last battle would you rather rely on the artillery making a clutch shotgun / splash damage kill when you have an autoreloader and 4 rounds in the reverse situation? Seems like the arty had the right idea to go first.
wtf is the super hellcat tucked in the corner of A1 doing?! Claus being super sarcastic and taking the piss is fun for me, and there's some good advice here.
Can you please help me? Why is it obvious that I am on a dedicated server, with nothing but bots. The tanks all move irratically, I can't hit/damage anything and I cannot form a team with my friend because I can't find him even when he is on. My friends all tell me that my screen is different from theirs and that they don't know why I appear to be NOT playing against real people. What am I doing wrong? Can anyone please help me? Thank you
@0:34 NO! lol Don't tell my ally light tanks to camp next to arty lolol HOLY $HIT!!!! That credit lost on the consumables alone!!!! My account couldn't sustain that.... OP powercreep
Have a fantastic day all you magnificent morons!
You too Claus. I was the T95 in the first game BTW
hey im a muppet
Nice trio ref
hey Claus can you please try the tier4 british tank destroyer with the small gun?
its insanely good for its tier you will have a lot of fun with it i can assure you with that
A interaction helps the Algorithm
I learn map positioning by dying several thousand times in various locations until i figure out not to go there anymore.
But when the meta changes, you should try them again :P
You must be smart ;)
You must be smart ;)
They made a movie about that approach... On the Edge of Tomorrow... except for the time travel part...

claus' italian to english is spectacular...
I am a really new player to the game and this has improved my perfomance several fold, thank you so much for this game averness tutorial!
When you thought you had team mates to support... Happens rather frequently - glad Claus is off the rage mode.
5:35 The SU 130 PM is trying the old mind Jedy trick on you ("It's safe, you want to move forward"), but you are not giving in, well done!
Klaus you should have waited until you are no longer spotted before you retreated on that ridgeline. You actually made it obvious that you were retreating allowing the enemy team to know the VK was all alone
Yup that's what I felt too.
I was thinking the same.
Downloading tons of your videos, Claus, to watch later at my leisure.

Exactly what I wanted, thank you Cranky Claus
Excellent commentary. Thanks for sharing.

Hey Claus, just something I noticed at 6.40 was getting lit and then relocating. The enemy can see you pull away. I would suggest waiting 10 seconds to become unspotted and then move. The enemy may well stagnate a while longer.
Thought the same as he was informing enemies that he is relocating and that his rear will be facing the tank on the ridge.

Im from sweden and we dont have twinkies here so you take that back Klaus right now.....
love your videos here have a swedish meatball ;)
What?? The Swedes don't have Twinkies? I don't know if I should be jealous or envy you!
@@brucegoodwin634 well i feel sad for sure =(
Raging at your teammates is ALWAYS the right choice.
I specialise in bad map positions
Awesome Claus ......love the commentary....
Sometimes the best map position is the garage. Had to take Brave Sir Robin as in game name- running away comes naturally

"but, I did SUPER good in THIS position this ONE time, once. I will now go there every time in every game." is what I always get.
Not toxic AF today. Very enjoyable.

On lakeville you should have waited 12 seconds before you changed position so the enemy team wouldn't be aware you moved.
Wow. A battle that lasted more than 5 minutes.
You always make me smile Claus "mopito"
I like how you clarified what the super Hellcat did wrong, is there other info you would suggest to Hellcat players in general as a heavy player?
Finally. A relevant video. More of this kind of thought process claus. Time to move. Map indications. Watch. Your team etc etc there is a veritable gold mine in This aspect...
Love how your fans gave you the top gun in that first game
Good video Claus 👍
Chosing map positions is easy but I wish we can chose exactly which maps to play
Chicken maps lol
"You don't have to sit and the back and eat Twinkies, and CLICK" 🤣🤣🤣
I like to play SPG's, time to get some twinkies!
As an out-and-out SPG player I did laugh at that, for it is true. 🤣
I eat Zingers and click, thank you very much.
HEILL
Instead, we have a Super Hellcat hiding in the usual SPG spot at the edge of the map at A1.
I enjoy your videos Claus.

Great video! Thanks!
now i feel your pain clauss, i decided to jump from console version to pc version, god, theyre all so pragmatic and hot headed especially in the first 5 minutes of battle
pragmatic and hotheaded?? thats 2 personality descriptions that are almost polaropposite eachother
what else are you supposed to do as an spg? clicking and twinkies is life!
Awesome commentary
Claus would Battle Hits tell you where those shots went?
HEILL
Battle Hits doesn't tell Claus where those shots went,
Claus tells battle hits where his shot went

Claus, if you share your strategy with your teammates in chat, it could help them adapt to the situation.

Can you do more of these map positioning and the way of thinking in the game
Fast havies really got an edge over the slower ones. Mainly because armor became useless.
I like that strategy of where can I go that won't help my team lose. :)
Getting hit by to Hugh TDs would be fun
It's a great lesson that I can't seem to learn: when you are losing, just don't lose completely, survive until the end. I can do this In chess, but not in tanks lol
Well Done! Lots of fun! Oohraah!!! 07

Wait why does the Progetto 66 have 4 shots in the magazine? Isn't it only supposed to have 3?
I like the purple for the enemy team, how do I do that?
i am having another fantastic day ..i just had a game where i fired 5 shots from my scorpion g and i knocked out 1 tank and got hits and it was credited as they happened then at the end i checked my placement and it said 1 shot and no hits no tanks knocked out ..lolllol ..amazing how that happens.
i must have filed a complaint on one of "their " players .. 5 games now in a row says at the end no hits even thou i hit them dead center..
oh yeah in that game with 5 shots that didnt happen they even charged me the resupply for them shots that didnt happen
Whenever I leave a bad position, the enemy seem to push through it 30 seconds later, making my new position the bad position.
Hey Claus ..Camping? what do you do when you get a good position you hang there and you take out a couple and somebody starts crying about camping.
Why is this guy so funny I can’t his commenting is so funny 😂
Likes that these replays played out the full time limit, and not one of those 4.5 min Romplestomps ;-p Still silly to say, "not a unicum/good player" when you get a Top Gun and then a medal for 5 kills.. j/s ;-p
yep thats 100% the correct translation of the Italian voice lines
what was that ui element when the scorpion shot you from the city?
You could have told the VK “hey lets retreat”
Wouldn't it make sense to let the arty spot? Not too far ahead, ok, but considering arty aim time I'd rather have him killed and a tank getting the killing shot. Also, I would probably had switched to HE at the end with the Standard B on 4hp. Nonetheless, great vid, Claus!
But what if Second Side of Map Breached by Enemy Team
What's the Use of being in the Location then
Why at the end of the last battle would you rather rely on the artillery making a clutch shotgun / splash damage kill when you have an autoreloader and 4 rounds in the reverse situation? Seems like the arty had the right idea to go first.
good video
Brave Sir Robin ran away! I did not!
you could have pulled back and supported the vk while he moved back. a controlled pull--back while supporting others on the flank would be wiser...??
2:57 If there were two vealed wehicles in this game!! I'd settle for some Veal Parmigiana!!!
If an SPG is spotting and a heavy tank sniping from behind a bush you know your team is two tanks down.
The narration is killing Me 🤣 "I'll just deal with this Muppet "
wtf is the super hellcat tucked in the corner of A1 doing?!
Claus being super sarcastic and taking the piss is fun for me, and there's some good advice here.

I try to fill the gaps in the line and go to places where im not expected.
can i use one your video in my video about match making and other things.
Can you please help me? Why is it obvious that I am on a dedicated server, with nothing but bots. The tanks all move irratically, I can't hit/damage anything and I cannot form a team with my friend because I can't find him even when he is on. My friends all tell me that my screen is different from theirs and that they don't know why I appear to be NOT playing against real people. What am I doing wrong? Can anyone please help me? Thank you
they knew vk was alone when you left that position while still being spotted you should of stayed there till unspotted then move
nice video
No twinkies for this cannoneer... c-rats baby, c-rats! (12 years field artillery LOL)
4 years in armor...Salute!👍
how did you get purple names?
golden rule of playing good, im still trying to figure it
hit by what at 6:00?
I cant stop Laughing 😂😂 (Genius, Nice one! 😆)
Can you tell me,how to get the 4 shot gun?...i only have 3 shots in this tank
Use the tier 9 gun, not the top gun and you get 4 shot magazine.
This time Claus is Mikey. Let Mikey go...
nice italian translation Claus :)))))
"Supercap points" :D
"boom boom, they went back to their room"
@0:34 NO! lol
Don't tell my ally light tanks to camp next to arty lolol
HOLY $HIT!!!! That credit lost on the consumables alone!!!! My account couldn't sustain that....
OP powercreep
How fucking refreshing is this shit?👍
This video made me very agressive.
Wait until your ass shell is reloaded!
Don´t shot when it only takes 1 freakin second to reload the next shot.
Starting too learn that it's ok to retreat lol
That tank seems to play like a centurion but with automatic reload
All tanks have 6 sides (until HE rounds are patched from splashing the under belly)..... Must thinking like an arty player!
