maybe you should have a "fun" rating on the index, so you can rate the uncompetitive "bad" tanks as "fun"/"not fun" or something
Good idea:Bad but fun to play.
Like a second specifier. You could have "bad fun", "good fun" or maybe "epic unfun", or "playable fun". Something like that.
This is a great idea!
There are people in this game who quite literally do nothing in this game, almost each and every game, for thousands and thousands of games and some how 'have fun'.
Great idea! For example the maus and e50m may not be the most competitive tanks but i seem to have alot more fun in them👍
If it performs like this with 8+ skill crews, imagine how it would do with no skills and be ammo racked?
Masochist heaven.
And look at the equipment...
The key is "if things go well". And that rarely happens in OTL. So, this tank is rarely playable.
Yeah same as all derp guns.
And don't forget the full bond equipment and food.......
and the 300 gold penetration.
I actually really like this tank. It's fun and unique and not overpowered. What a premium tank should be like
two shotting a tier 9 in 3.75 seconds is pretty overpowered
@@chillSKATE101 if you manage to hit AND pen those two shots then yes
@@chillSKATE101 no? not if you spend a minute reloading and the odds of hitting if the distance is over 50 meters is extremely small.. its fun, but not op at all
@@chillSKATE101 Lmao if you hit/pen:):)
If not you are dead...
Prem tank is maded for fun and Money too old American T34 HT is best example.
Note folks he is using a really good crew, premium consumables and the best equipment. Just keep that in mind. Personally, I think the H.E. rework killed this before it was even released.
That bounce on the AMX in the first game proved why the HE changes were more harmful than good
It only made chieftain more op, this hull down meta is terrible
well, its a good thing it still has top tier AP rounds for the tier, its a bad tank but its hilarious when it works
Just don't be poor lmao? Bond vstab and food is easy to afford
Hey Skill, i recommend you use Turbo with field mod, it helps you close in to the enemy side or back instead of aiming then you can unload double shot and run away
Not to mention this tank has really good acceleration so you will easily get to top speed
No better impriove gun accuarci and aim time if you aim whole day enemy wreck you.
@@joe125ful Yeah, like 0.1 aimtime and 0,02 accuracy vents gives you will ever matter...
@@durachoks Then use Improved/Bounty one also you can mount better optics to improve accuraci instead of vent 0.3 is good and you can use Vertical stab too,most of shots are probablly not fully aimed anyway.
Turbo not give you any gun advantage at all more like making snap shots harder with more speed and realize 50 seconds reload,you really need pen all shots/trade dmg.
@@joe125ful I already used stats for bond vents, vents are irrelevant in current meta anyway, useless piece of equipment.
I was using aiming unit, stabs, irm, like you said, tried to max out gun, but then tried using turbo instead of irm and turbo is actually better, at least for me, this tank is not about gun, you just have to play very close range, do a lot of flanking, and turbo helps to do that the best
This tank NEEDS a turbo. It goes from being one of the slowest tier 8 heavies to one of the quickest due to the good power to weight. Makes setting up shots so much easier and the tank so much more flexible. Much more of a impact that vents has. Can flex around like a fat borat for side shots. Just gota not shoot 2nd shot unless its a sure thing and you have the ability to fall back. At end game just taking a hit and using its good power to weight with 38km top speed to get behind tanks to hit them for 1700 is just dumb.
Nah, it needs gun handling and accuracy, absolutely. It’s pointless to go faster if you’re missing more shots.
@@Watykaniak +5km actually with field mods. 33km is slower than most heavies, 38km along with the power to weight to not lose speed up hill means you get to position faster than most of them and can outmaneuver most of them mid and late game. Watch how most streamers play it. Its a opportunistic ambusher / support. Mobility is key. Especially with such a long downtime.
@@shmekelfreckles8157 Vents does almost nothing to aid this, compared to turbo that lets you act somewhat like a borruasque and find flanking opportunities. Vertstabs + aiming device + turbo is the way to go on this. Also the difference in he ability to get around enemies to their sides / rears in end game is massive. If your sniping in this tank then your doing it wrong.
Let's look at it this way: the turbo is a 12% increase to top speed, a 17% increase to reverse speed, it takes power to weight to nearly 20 and it also increases traverse speed.
The question is whether all of this is worth sacrificing one of the other must have pieces of equipment?
@@DA-cl4ww vents + vents directive or just bond vents is pretty much extra food. It’s really good.
3:16
Skill: Tell me it wasn't fun, I dare you!
Skorpion: NO
With AP it has sense , you have a huge dmg to modules , you have huge pen and caliber , if there is 8 tier e75 you can pen upper plate something like this or is6 whatever
This tank is made to slow the fast games down.
When there is one or two in other team you slow down and proceed with caution
I fell in love with this tank from the first moment. The only sad thig is the last HE rework.. without that it could be more fun. I played already like 100 games with Caliban with avg of 2100..which is not very good but that gun is just MEME by it self. I never viped out more mole's than woth this tank.... even with fully aimed gun you have no guarance that shell will go in the circle
I think the 180 HE pen has more than made up for the HE "rebalance". However, it doesn't affect hull down monsters which in Wargaming's infinite wisdom is exactly what they were aiming for (pun intended). I just wished they'd had Caliban RNG.
2100 in caliban is pretty good tbh
@@jhvjkyfyv Yeah, I have 2000 and it equals to 2 marks of excellence.
I definitely like the tank. Its not op, but no matter how the game goes every time I penetrate with he I have a smile on my face.
Yeah If*
"not op", nice joke
Its still a Kv2 with a clip to me
I like the video, 2 live battles and a legendary one. Seems perfect
But you are not the king baboon, keep this in mind and take care ;)
Somehow I'm getting the "noooo, you can't shit on our new premium tanks as our cc - sincerely, WG" feeling from this video...
I think he was just a bit quick to judge in his first video. He got really really bad maps for this tank and wasn't quite playing with it correctly then. This tanks existence survives on the dopamine rush from double pens and he just wasn't getting anything good in those first few matches.
Agreed on putting fun tabs on the index, just playing something fun is what makes the game so much more enjoyable.
You can actually climb on the pile of rubble but from the other side, it's extremely easy and you need to get on the flat bit right on top of the pile. You can shoot down into the market and even into those in cover behind the building, took that position in a Kran once and it is terrifying, they really should fix that, not gonna lie. And yeah, Caliban is FUN when it works :)) Thanks for the games!
29:00 poor Pershing. He expected to work together with this Skoda T56 and got completely betrayed :(
"zero is better than zero" - Skill, Dec '21.
This will be quoted as scripture for centuries to come
Reminds me of the Cruiser II with the derp gun. Too bad they removed it. That was classic with super low velocity.
What i noticed during the last 2 days: the battles last longer... Maybe because more lootbox heavies are present.
Hi skill, love the videos. Is vents really better than improved rotation mechanism for accuracy in this tank?
16:55 And thats why Im going full gold with Caliban. If you had APs loaded, you would have smacked the doomturtle for 1200hp. Right now I have just slightly under 2000 average damage, and I have NEVER used food in my Caliban (Im grinding credits with it).
I think you are correct about this tank. Most games with this one I am pulling out my hair but every once in a while I have tears in my eyes from laughing so much from hitting everything. I got the Caliban in one of my Christmas boxes but I would never have bought one. Thanks for your videos...keep up the great work!
"What's up mate? How are you doing today? SSHHNNNIIIE!" 🤣🤣🤣 I laughed so hard!
The Caliban is a mindchanger, I came here just for your opinion on the tank and out of curiosity. Post my first two games in this vehicle I didn't understand how to play it but now I am 60 matches in and I love this tank, super fun super troll. Btw I prefer tier 9 matches and not tier 6 matches in this tank, you can penetrate most vehicles in the side or front even at tier 9 and it's more satisfying to clip Conway for 1500 or Obj 257 than to shoot at tier 6s. Another point I noticed high tiers want to rush you, when you play in a platoon this allows one person to get around the back and for example penetrate an IS-4 in the back twice and win the 2 on 1 duel.
3:06 I think baboon needs a new diaper after that one and a cigarette
A pack of crisps is good in the Uk. A bag of chips (French fries in USA) is chunks potatoe sticks fried in oil or lard.
Imagine how fun this tank would be before HE nerfs
Yep I expected skill willing change his mind,after few Caliban quite op in certain circumstances
10:00 ,,with any other hevy tank I would have been able to carry''
What about your beloved VK 75 K? :D
I got a caliban last night and took it out for a spin. Its not a tank for everyone but man its funny to use esp when you high roll and delete a tank. Its not my style of play but its nice to change it up sometimes and have some toxic fun.
They lowered the alpha damage of HE shells on Type 4/5 cause people were crying they got one-shot and they release a tank that can do even more damage albeit in 3.75s and they slapped it on a tank that can play against tier VI tanks.
Played with my clan mates and they had 2 calibans. Oh my god you can't even believe the havoc they created. Best thing is the overmatching heavy tanks xD!
please tell me, what tanks and where you can overmatch with taliban?
when we are taking about tier 9 and 10 your platoon would like to play more against tier 7-8 ;)
that last game, oh my bananas. love the high rolls, but I don't think I could handle the wait for a new clip. thank you my King!
Skieeel! Are you planning make some map guide / typical strategy videos ?
your commentary on the first kill was hilarious man
3:05 skill just came moment.mp4
We actualy need to thank Wargaming for slowing down the Meta through the holidays ;-)
Im rly curious abt the caliban, cause id love to hit those 900dmg shots twice 😅😅
Allways a pleasure to see you vids, despite you can win the fIrst game, i think this tank comes with 25 Shells, it should give us "the tip" on how to use the Caliban: Hyper-wise with the Shells gestion, focusing on keeping one shell in the amno bay (if possible): Your test to hit the arty with the "HE shell drop tech" with your 2 Shells makes you loose the game:
because just after, even if you low roll against the T 56 with your first shell, you had the second shell to finish him instead of going back and loosing 442 hp (from the T56), and then loosing 531 hp from the Amx 13 57, to be @83 HP and "one-shotable" by him instead of having 1056 HP.
15:26 omg skill, i dont think i have ever heard you talk so softly.. lol. Loved it. So honestly sad...
O7 baboon king
Pros and cons of playing on NA.
Con: Never play with or against Skill
Pro: Never play against the Steven 90. That man scares me.
KV train incoming
The best replay I've seen so far had the player hit 13/13 shots and do 8400 damage.
Link?Maybe Skill can show us that too.
@@joe125ful Its on Dez channel
@@lethuliv5500 Just send that link to Skill.
26:55 what does "oy yoptererei" mean (phonetically written/said)?
What is annoying is both 180 pen on he and 292 on ap. Its a heavy tank most encounters are close range so dispersion doesn't even matter. You pull out take shots and go behind cover, dpm is irrelevant 122tm shows that. Alpha is way more important. the problem with that high of HE is it can pen lower plates of heavys.
One tip: you ABSOLUTELY need intuition in this tank. With it, you can change your entire clip in ~29 seconds, which can be essential, as although I think AP is the better overall ammo choice, sometimes the HE is essential.
Those tasty pens on skorp. Caliban's HE is tasty but personally I prefer the Centurion 7/1's HESH. Give Caliban HESH or HEP shells and it will be utter nightmare
Skill you can kill the scorpion with the skoda with 2 shots for example and much easier
I got this tank in the third box of my 11 boxes package. I think i'll never be this lucky for my entire life.
Lucky????Its hard to say about this tank..
Probably dude 😂😂😂
LOL those first two shots :D
Also when you bounced the amx I think you hit a wall/pole nit the tank
Those first 2 shots against the Skorpian G made the entire video worth it!
Maybe playable,but just doesnt do at all what a premium tank should do and that is farm credit, but for Skill that's of course not a problem, so ofc he rates it playable
this tank is really about having fun. this is the only tank among all tanks that has no expectations. because you don't know if you're doing 500 or 5000. but when you hit your opponent you know it's going to be fun☺
Petition to call the Tornvagn the torturevagn
Boringwager* fits better.
Caliban is literally like KV-2, a shotgun tank
Shotgun?More like nuke tank..
You'll laugh, you'll cried, you'll kissed 80 bucks goodbye.
You really loved that first shot! lol
omg... i'm laughing my pants since the moment scorpion was spotted!
If someone want to hit 800 damage per one shot, they canuse obj 703 and shoot salvo everytime. Or Skoda like you said
13:13 Wouldn't this map be better if there was like a thunnel through the mountains to where the bourrasque or the udes is sitting?
Wish WG would give HE some tweeks to where somehow you shoot a Super Hellcat you dont get Screen not penned and deal 0 dmg. Give it increased module and crew dmg due to spralling.
Did you notice the baboon in the last game with the 6k + dmg with defeat!!! 😲
Poor pershing thought skoda will kill you Skill...press f for him. Great video btw.
3:05 nice
Previously you did not use premium ammo. And that makes big difference
Would you consider chaning the Tornvagn rating aswell? I've having a good time with it, I run it with Rammer + Turbo + Vstabs / irm and It's not nearly as bad as everyone says, there's way slower tanks that are rated good, like the Lowe and the accuracy is not that terrible if you are upclose and even if you miss, you won't get penned either. I'm not saying it should be epic, but I think it is NOT a bad tank. I'd put it on playable at the very least, if not good.
Skill rated it as playable though
and no it cant reach Good tier unless they do something about it's mobility at least, while leaving the gun bad as it is now
If i go to the heavy front i use only 1 shoot and not the second one. peak when they have shot. And i have minimised the rectangle as much as it's possible. I do not snipe from far a way. It's a waste of time.
2nd battle Skill hit the bottom part of the turret ring bulge of AE Phase 1 it has more than 180mm effective armor so no penetration.
I am personally a huge fan of derp guns in this game on any platform (light, med, hev, etc). I wanted to get this tank over the holidays and spent a fair amount on boxes. I got all the other tanks instead lol. Looks like a fun tonk to pew with sadly.
It’s a tier 8 Death Star or Trash Barn with some armor.
This was the tank that I got in my Loot Boxes and I was honestly pretty happy. Not my the best in my opinion, but not the worst either. Its a bit slow, but not worth a turbo. Its a meme tank that is fun to play, and I understand that I'm not carrying in. Nonetheless its hilarious to play when it goes right, and I don't get upset when it goes poorly. I don't typically go fight the heavies in it, especially not Tier X.
I bought 50 boxes to get one tank and I got this. I actually love it because I laugh so much. I once out clipped Vz 55 and that is the biggest highlight. To take this tank from playable to epic is just the right mindset XD
Luck for you dude that you got him
3:06 I feel that deep in my bottom arse 🤣
In asia server, premium tier 8 tank have no chance of seeing tier 6!
Caliban a piece of junk? No. That's the place for the Tornvagn. Caliban shouldn't be greedy.
Earfield - The map with ears everywhere
Even on the receiving end of this tank’s 900+ alpha penetrating shot you get a sense of amazement and excitement lol.
My opinion about that tank is, Wot need to change the name from Caliban to Taliban!
Skill, you do not understand this tank! It is not toxic... If you empty the clip and then go to garage, you are actually ...increasing DPM of the tank! Because it take less time to start a new game then to reload Caliban for more than 1 minute! So remeber how you must play: BAM- BAM -> garage! BAM-BAM -> garage! :)
It's like the KV2. Frustrating as hell, but fun as hell when it works.
This is probably my new favorite tank. Competitive? No. Fun? Yes
no offence man but you are not skill4ltu
i would have like to see the feature of the italian heavy tanks with reduced penalty of firing early, in this config as the tank is now it would work better as a true autoloader with 35-40 ish second reload
And I thought the 40 second reload on the GSOR was bad lol
Playable You say... Yeah... I spent 2 minutes to check out how it looked in past years... 2018: Type 59, Lorraine 40t, T26E5, Skorpion G. 2019: E-25. IS-3A, Skorpion G, Defender. 2020: E-75TS, Object 703 II, Progetto 46, SU-130PM. 2021: Bisonte C45, Bourrasque, GSOR 1008, ISU-152K. I dislike Skorpion, Defender is pile of garbage for me, but thousands of people waited for years to get them, me included. There is a lot of stars shining in this company and this year if you have Skoda already, whole event is garbage... Maybe If I will finally buy boxes and get any of them, I change my mind like you Skill, but you get the point, even if Defender is crap, it's still a legend that older players always remember, same as Skorp, not even talking about Borat or Progetto. Where Taliban is going to sit in 3 months? In deepest garage corner eating dust...
I like this tank in tier 10 too. The ap pen more than enough. I focus on the better tier 10 tanks and give them around 1300hp- without problem. If we think about it the is7 and the kranvagon have nearly the same pen with gold. If the enemy make a mistake you peak out and give him 2 presents. You go back and reload and next time give him 2 more presents and you are around 2600dmg. I did it yesterday with a unicum chiftain and he went back to the garage. This tank can be op.
600 + 600 = 1200 not 1300
@@OrcaSpiderJay oh, i remembered wrong then. I tought it have 650 alpha.
@@zsolts.414 mistakes happen :)
Where do I get the "Enemy never looks at me" mod?
Can tell you, that Scorp was cursing :D
In order to play with a Škoda T56, I need to have on in thr first place. But destiny chose to reward me with the Pornvagn, the Taliban and the 122 instead.
what pen indicator do you use?
hey skill, what is the model of electronic cigarette?
I still don't get it why was a tier VIII first impression video uploaded to the extra channel. You literally said at 0:12 Tier V tier VI tier VII.
I think somebody used the wrong account to upload.
Really wish you could show a full AP game
for me it's like this :
if you wanna be competitive then caliban is not your tank.
if you wanna have fun, the derpy old time wot fun, then caliban is your tank.
I usually hate inonsistent tanks, but this tank is so ridiculous I can't take it seriously enough to get mad or tilted
I like it. Yeah its derpy and trollish, but after "loosing" my kv2 after they nerfed the living hell out of HE, this thing is my new kv2. If you meet heavy tanks with lots of armour u simply load gold and u have good pen and STILL a respectable damage. You just need to have mapawareness (when to have one or the other loaded and where to go to, so you dont sit too far away and shoot)
what is your equipment loadout?
I like the camo! Good video.
This tank has to be THE most extreme definition of a hit or miss/go big or go home tank.
A whole game full of Caliban's. Like the Sturmtiger event.
03:05 - 03:08 guys close your eyes for a second... :D
