      In my opinion, you can still play low tiers and have TONS of fun. I know, because as a veteran WoT player, I am sick of High-tier games, and I stick to tiers up to 6-7 maximum. 8+ is just sickening, unless you want to play your casual premium for extra credits! But my personal favourite tiers are 3-5 - lol 😂

I like this feeling of dealing more damage. It's satisfying for me. Unfortunately I have never get the opportunity to b6ut X tier tank because I have never could afford it.

    I personally have just enjoyed with HP, turbo and the aiming device. Just going close almost no matter what and well, I am just a speed enjoyer. I hate chasing the last damage and being too slow.
    Of course its not the best and certain way not the most enjoyable, but the performance is still 3rd of my premium heavy tanks. Only WZ-176 and Skoda ahead so...

    I have the Obj.252U for a few years now and I have to say it was one of the most disappointing tanks I ever got. The tanks that it faces unless two tiers down, have no problem penning it, when of course when this was new it was advertised by WG and certain big youtubers as "unfair", "godlike", etc, clearly to push people to buy it.
    Not the first or the last time it happened, but still annoying.
    I have better armor (in actual battles) and gun handling results with my Alpine Tiger and that is not a joke. I have 53.15% WR with my Alpine Tiger and 44.83% with my Defender. Not only that, but I have over 500 battles with the AT and just 29 battles with the Defender exactly because of how poop I find it in real terms and can't stand playing with it.
    As for the gun, poop, but that for me is not alone on itself to ruin this tank. It's the whole package.
    Yes I am far from a great player, but this tank is poop.
