Unfortunately WG doesn't know how to make maps that work for all classes of vehicles. They don't seem to make maps now at all and are just pouring the resources into their fortnite tank game.
I am soooo happy those bad streaks of loosing games and bad RNG overall in battles is not happenning just to regular players. During Christmas I wasn't reaching even 40% and it was extremely frustrating :d Love ya Skill
As a returning player, I've learned that games won is not a good measure of personal performance. Sometimes, I'm a lunatic who gets killed and then my team wins, other times, I'm getting 4-5K damage, several kills, doing my best and making the right plays, and still can't win. I look more at average damage. Trading positive damage and getting more experience are more important IMO.
Yeah i feel you Skill for Winrate. I mostly doing 54%, then got a day with 30% winrate on 30 games, I didn't even had the time to breath that the team was dead. It somehow feels reassuring that it happen to greatest players like you.
Happened to me this morning. Several games with tier VIII, most of them in tier X and WR after about 10 games around 20 percent...Usually went to -5 tanks in 90 seconds. Enjoyable
its just ridiculous.. i had to play 11 games to win 1 for the double xp.. then 6 for 1 win... i mean what kind of shthole is this.. they just insta die and you cant do sht man...
Nah, you played it quite well, it's just that the matchmaker said no and WG are too stupid to understand that they need to make maps playable and enjoyable for all vehicle classes except clickers. They just don't get it. You have (mostly older) maps where you're just dead and mostly useless if you're in a heavy tank, you have (mostly newer) maps where you're there just to pad the scores for other players if you're not playing heavily armored TDs and that's about the entire WG map-making philosophy.
First I really hated this tank, but after I realized how to play it I grew to love it. I have to admit though, it's really situational. There are games where you just can't make damage with it.
This really seems to be a thing with all TDs that sit in the back. You NEED the enemy to make mistakes and expose themselves/YOLO. Due to the way maps are designed, if you choose a flank and your team wins that flank, you tend to get not much damage as you sit in the back. On the other hand, if that flank is just barely lost (enemy tanks are all on low-ish HP) the harvest is bountiful.
Because of players like skill have a good match making in more then 60% of the the time, and it is more easy too mark for them. Some people have too lose every time because others have a good mm. It is not fair. Rigged game.
Hi Skill! Just noticed a lot of E25 vids on your index page are from 2022. The videos seemed to be more best of videos rather than a master class if i may say so. I was wondering if you'd be interested in doing a video about the versatility of the tank as in it can be a light tank or it can assume its natural role. Basically showing how many different ways it can be played and enjoyed. For example i have a stealth spotting build and a turbo/rammer build. Thanks for all that you do, you're truly awesome!
4K games, so im not experienced gamer. Win ratio is embarrassing 46%. And I always feel guilty. But even my good, experienced friends playing on my acc can’t win any game! So strange… WG hates me ;)
I feel you skill. 2.6k combined damage in Conqueror, 38% WR over last 60+ games. I get sessions where I could go 1 win to 8 loses, and my teams melts before I even get to heavy line.
lol, I am going to do the Italian TD line. So I started at the Basatto tier 6. I am doing ok with the tank but my WR is 31% after 45 games. Can't get too upset about it though. I think it will turn around when I get up closer to 100 games. At least I hope it does. My overall WR is 50%, so 31% after almost 50 games is possibly the lowest I have ever had. But it will probably turn around, I am waiting for that big win streak.
My money maker as well. You can make pixel shots, or RNG decides to throw your shots outside of the reticle. I also make half of the shots blind when I recognize a camping position or when team spot someone and I am outside of viewing range. It's so nice to have blind kills or more points then the displayed one's a the end of the game.
tbh imho you play not that well, in the last round you just were to uncautious. Maybe because you get the role wrong. My experience with the S-Tank is you surely can go with the other tanks to the line and "snipe" there - there is no absolutely need to be the redline-schneiperschnitzel-noob first priority. The s-tank is made for being aggressive as well. Sure i snipe with it... a lot... but I always look for the opportunities to go as near to the front as possible. And pssst - One tip for all the "siegemode" tanks: if you put on a good turbo, you get the speedboost in the siege mode too! With that you maybe could have evaded the Jagdtiger shot in the end. Take out the vent, put the rammer on the first slot and put in a hell of a turbo beside the binos. (I use experimental turbo for more turning speed on top) Have a good one ...while you read this naked on the bed! - I play meanwhile without trousers! Swing!
333 pen with gold ammo at tier 8 is just overkill, the standard shells have more pen than half of the premium shells that other TD’s fire at this tier, meaning that you can print credits with this. this tank is also invisible, extremely accurate and fast. Definitely would recommend to purchase this one. The downsides is that most things will overmatch your upper front plate, but you can counter this by angling your tank up when reversing. and this biggest downside is that you only have 1,000 hp.
I love the strv and my udes3 tds eh I felt this was good decision making key to watch the flow of battles on mini map and respond to where it is crucial for the team eh Enjoyed watching very real a familiar frustrating situations eh
Skill, probably you were recording this video around 2-3 days ago. If yes - I understand you so much because when I played Nomad this time I was making 3000-4000k dmg each battle and my team was melted by enemies. It was typical "exit damage" games with 40-50% WR like you.
I just wanted to come and say thank you a lot for your great website as a new player with under 2000 battles in wot it really helps me a lot to look at what tank i want to skill and buy
T-34-85M? Last vid on it was in Dec 2022, and new players tend to get it through referral contracts, so a nice up-to-date video on it would benefit everyone. Other less relevant ones I've spotted include: M10 RBFM EBR 75 (FL 10) Strv 74 [videos exist, but they are not linked for some reason] Type 64
Can you explain the significance of the baboon. In one of the games here you castigated the player for a kill of a baboon. I didn't understand why, what is a baboon? and what is the "dance"?
Who is better to play, super hellcat or m56 scorpion? I'm thinking to change super hellcat to m56 scorpion because standard shell of super hellcat is Soo painfully to use (low penetration).
Mountain pass was kinda ruined by the changes. Personally i wish i had wot plus because itd take the 3rd spot for blacklisted maps. Probably wont make a difference because im for what ever reason getting black listed maps still.
I love TDs and absolutely hate the strv s1, 103 etc. I have never had a single game in them where I can say that was not that bad of a game. Even with games where I do amazing I still cant stand that tank line.
I love you! I asked you a few years ago to play with it so hard that I was afraid you will acuse me of harrassement 😂 then you fulfilled my dream and here we go again, thank you 🥳 greetings from Poland, better luck next time
Hola. Yo tengo los dos, el STRV S1 y el UDES 03. Al UDES O3, se le saca algun rebote, a este a mi por lo menos, me entra todo, no rebota ni una; en cuanto a precisión, independientemente de lo que digan las fichas técnicas de los tanques, para mí, también es más preciso el UDES. Skill, un saludo desde España, la tierra del Sol.
Hi Skill, tks to speack about your WR ... I left game for few months and came back in december... since I came back I'm having 45 % WR... plenty of 5/15 loosing battles even now that christmas are over... and what to say about strv s1.. got it from twitch rental and making 20% wr with it... disgusting. :/
Hey, you havent played the Cromwell in a looong time, even tho its one of the strongest T6 tank. I recently 3marked it and its a beast, would love to see you init.
Skill you rock, what kind of material is your chair made of? My cat fill my current one with holes and I want a new good chair. Do you think cloth will be ok
A beautiful credit maker, but reacently i got my hands on ka-ri that replaced s1 as my credit farmer. Btw elc bis tier 5 light tank video last time 2021. I know low tier shitter but its such a beautiful tank.
Unfortunately WG doesn't know how to make maps that work for all classes of vehicles. They don't seem to make maps now at all and are just pouring the resources into their fortnite tank game.
Strv S1 is one of the few premium tanks where you don't really need to use gold ammunition, which is why it's such a pleasure to earn money with it.
That's a very important feature. Your right.
Even when you loose you win credits.
Provided you hit weakspots with this thing, which seemed very difficult for me when I played it last.
Exactly @@woodyamsterdam
Premium shells are not necessary ever. Unless it’s a mouse or something. And that’s about it.

It’s much harder to play triangles these days with the 15-5, 5-15 matches that are unfortunately the norm.
Ive never seen anything like it. All you gotta do is wiggle and dance and enemies drive right past you!!

I had 24 games without a win last week, must be a record.

It is actually a really pleasing tank to play, even in the new meta. Slap a bounty or bond turbo on it, and just snipe

This tank is so much dependent of the team that it’s not funny to play. I trade it as soon as i could.
Sadly this is not the current meta for S1 and 103B, turbo is in
peeking with a turbo is much better, reserve speed in seige mode much better
T14!!! You haven’t touched the T14 in a couple years!!!!
0:33....SKIIIIILL, satisfies little boyz wants.

For every game you carry defend there are 5 where your team mops up and you do nothing
Yep, I love the S1 but this is the biggest problem with it

Thanks for showing honest games. I have way too many games that end 15-4 or some number like that. Glad I am not the only one.
whenever i watch a skill video and try to replicate the gameplay , this is how is going , like this sesion
I'm glad you made this video because this is my session most of the time and I see it's not just me

Skill you also forgot about playing WZ-120-1 FT
My all time favourite tank. My play style is either sniper like this or heavily armoured assault tank like the Tortoise.
Don’t remind me of my failed TD-15 in the S1 on Redshire doing almost 7k…
Also SU-122-44 last video 18 years ago Reeeeee!

What do you think if WG separate players up to 16 years from others
why sniper schnitzel? XD that's definitely the Sniper cheese grater!
Yeah I've been having a lot of games that are completely one-sided. It's It's good to know that even you CC's have bad days too.
Skill, I got this tank when I came back to WoT a couple of years ago, think the first 20 battles in it were on Himmelsdorf, super😢

288 pen on standard ammo ? Amazing.
You need to re-review the tier 5 Covenanter...
This is how my successful games looked like
Just a reminder @skill4ltu you said you would do another video in half a year or less, and it has now been 9 months. :P
Sniper Schnitzel 😂😂😂
now explain why last video about ebr 90 was uploaded back in 2021
How you change modes on strv from 2.0 to 1.3
Press X to get to 1.3. Press it again to get to 2.0
@skill4ltu common man. You promised the new line of Japanese heavies.....
i wish i had the S1 so bad i tried tradeing in the premium i have but it wasnt enough lol. love the vids keep it up
this tank currently have my damage record at 5.5k damage.

Strv S1 was nerfed. Very sad. Slower reload, slower turns. A lot of not pin shots.

When everything goes bad pick s1 with accurate gun And somehow 288 std pen on t8😂

And about the game, last 3 days it was bad, MM verry trash, 25%-50% wins not more
